Odaily News: Avalanche Treasury Company (NASDAQ: AVAT), a digital asset treasury company in the Avalanche ecosystem, has announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2026. The company's board of directors has approved a $10 million share repurchase program for Class A common stock, aimed at addressing the market's undervaluation of the company and enhancing shareholder returns.
AVAT CEO Bart Smith stated that the company completed its business combination in Q2 and began trading on the Nasdaq on June 11.

Financial data shows that AVAT reported a net loss of $44.7 million in Q2, with a loss of $1.54 per share. Of this total, approximately $35.7 million in losses stemmed from market value fluctuations in AVAX holdings, including changes in fair value, realized losses, and impairment charges; an additional approximately $15.2 million represented one-time transaction costs associated with completing the business combination, while core administrative expenses amounted to approximately $3.5 million.
As of June 30, 2026, AVAT held approximately 15.3 million AVAX tokens, with a holding value of approximately $100 million based on period-end prices. The company generated $1.5 million in net staking income from staking AVAX during Q2, bringing cumulative staking income for the first half of 2026 to $3.6 million. (Businesswire)
