Galaxy Digital Announces 2021 Financial Results

  • Net comprehensive income[1] increased 345% to $1.7 billion versus prior year

  • Partners' Capital increased 226% to $2.6 billion versus prior year

  • Assets Under Management ("AUM")[2] increased 256% since Q4 2020

  • Galaxy remains committed to listing in the U.S. and closing the BitGo acquisition

NEW YORK, NEW YORK, March 31, 2022- Galaxy Digital Holdings Ltd. (TSX: GLXY) ("Galaxy Digital" the "Company" or "GDH Ltd.") today released financial results for the year ended December 31, 2021 for both itself and Galaxy Digital Holdings LP (the "Partnership" or "GDH LP").

“2021 was a transformational year for both Galaxy Digital and our industry. While providing shareholders a net comprehensive income of $1.7 billion for the full year 2021, we also grew headcount over 200% to support continued growth across all our businesses," said Michael Novogratz, Founder and CEO of Galaxy Digital.

"We remain committed to scaling our platform services, and building the pre-eminent technology-driven financial services and investment management firm, a strategy I firmly believe will continue enhancing long-term shareholder value."

Select Financial Highlights for the Fiscal Year 2021 compared to Fiscal Year 2020

  • Net comprehensive income[1] increased 345% to $1.7 billion, from $385.5 million in the prior year.

    • The increase was primarily a result of strong contributions from our Trading and Principal Investment businesses driving realized and unrealized gains on digital assets and on investments, partially offset by higher operating expenses.

    • Income from our trading business increased 302% to $985.3 million, from $245.0 million in the prior year.

  • Partners' Capital increased 226% to $2.6 billion, from $798.2 million at the end of the prior year period.

    • During the quarter, Partners’ Capital increased 28% to $2.6 billion, from $2.0 billion, due to gains on our core long digital asset positions as well as gains in our investment portfolio, which grew to $1.1 billion from $779.9 million in the prior quarter.

    • As of December 31, 2021, the Partnership had a material net holding in Bitcoin of approximately $463.8 million (December 31, 2020 - $443.6 million), Ether of approximately $391.3 million (December 31, 2020: $65.8 million), and Terra of approximately $407.6 million (no holdings as of December 31, 2020), excluding non-controlling interests. The increase in the value of holdings was primarily driven by the increase in prices from the prior year end. As a reminder, we actively manage our core digital asset holdings, including our material net holdings, to participate in the upside from favorable asset price changes, and mitigate the impacts of adverse movements.

    • Investments stood at $1.1 billion as of December 31, 2021, an increase of $809.4 million from December 31, 2020. The change was primarily due to the increase in unrealized gains and $340.5 million of new capital deployed by the Principal Investments team during the year.

Corporate Updates

  • BitGo Acquisition: Galaxy and BitGo intend to complete the proposed transaction, and have renegotiated the acquisition agreement from May 5, 2021 with the following terms:

    • The consideration to BitGo shareholders will consist of 44.8 million newly issued shares of Galaxy Digital common stock and $265 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments and deferred purchase considerations, implying an aggregate transaction value of approximately $1,158 million based on Galaxy Digital’s closing price on March 30, 2022.

    • BitGo shareholders will own approximately 12% of the pro forma company.

    • The acquisition is expected to close immediately following the domestication of Galaxy Digital as a Delaware corporation, subject to approval by the Company’s shareholders as well as certain other acquisition-related closing conditions and regulatory approvals. The company anticipates the domestication will become effective between Q2 and Q4 of 2022, subject to the ongoing SEC review process.

    • A reverse termination fee of $100 million will be payable by Galaxy Digital to BitGo in certain circumstances if the transaction has not been completed by December 31, 2022, subject to specific provisions.

  • U.S. Listing: As previously announced, the Company intends to complete its proposed reorganization and domestication to become a Delaware-based company, and subsequently list on the Nasdaq, upon completion of ongoing SEC review and subject to stock exchange approval of such listing.

Important U.S. Tax Information – Action Required by U.S. Shareholders

Galaxy Digital shareholders who are U.S. taxpayers should be aware that there may be significant and adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to Galaxy Digital’s PFIC status for 2021 and prior years and in connection with Galaxy Digital’s domestication from Cayman to Delaware unless they make certain elections on their originally filed U.S. federal income tax returns for 2021, which are generally due on April 18, 2022 (subject to allowable extensions). These consequences and, therefore, the need to take action apply to both direct and indirect holdings of Galaxy Digital shares. These elections are described in the notice posted by Galaxy Digital in March 2022 on its website at https://investor.galaxydigital.io/financials/annual-reports/default.aspx. Before filing their U.S. federal income tax returns for 2021, direct and indirect Galaxy Digital shareholders who are, or who have investors who are, U.S. taxpayers are urged to review the notice and to consult their tax advisors regarding the advisability of making these elections on their U.S. federal income tax returns for 2021.

Change in Financial Statements Presentation

Please note that Non-controlling interests were reclassified from "Equity" to "Liabilities" within Galaxy Digital Holdings LP's Consolidated statements of financial position. Similarly, Gains and losses attributed to the non-controlling interests were reclassified from "Net Income attribution" to "Expenses" within Galaxy Digital Holdings LP's Consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Because Non-controlling interests comprise assets from third-party investors in funds that we consolidate (based on an accounting control determination), the corresponding gains and losses attributed to these non-controlling interests are not attributable to the Partnership. As such, we historically excluded these amounts from the select financial data presented in the MD&A since these gains and losses were not part of our results of operations. Following the reclassification, we will continue to exclude these amounts from the select financial data presented in the MD&A as their nature did not change, and these gains and losses continue to not be a part of our operational results. As background, IFRS requires limited partner capital to be recognized as a liability if the Partnership does not have the unconditional right to suspend distributions indefinitely. Although the Partnership has the unilateral right to suspend distributions and the computation of the Net Asset Value for these funds, it does not have an unconditional right. For additional information regarding these changes in presentation, please refer to the "Change in Financial Statements Presentation" section within "Annual Highlights & Results" of the Partnership's MD&A.
