Dominari 2025 Revenue Surges 487% in 2025, Balance Sheet Strengthens Significantly

 

Underwriting revenues increased nearly six-fold and liquidity and working capital more than double in 2025

 

New York City/PRNewswire/March 31, 2026, Dominari Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: DOMH) (“Dominari” or the “Company”), today announced highlights of its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in the Company’s annual SEC Form 10K.

 

“In 2025, we achieved remarkable year over year revenue growth of nearly five times the revenue we had in 2024, reflecting strong underwriting activity, added sources of revenue, robust client engagement and disciplined operational execution,” said Anthony Hayes, Chief Executive Officer of Dominari. Mr. Hayes further noted that “when excluding non-cash-based expenses, we saw a year over year proforma bottom line improvement of nearly $46 million as compared to 2024 using the same metrics.” Mr. Hayes continued, “The explosive growth and expansion of our business reflect the continued efforts and leadership of Dominari’s President, Mr. Kyle Wool, and his team of professionals. The Company’s financial metrics have improved across the board as we focus on delivering value to our shareholders every day. We look to build upon our success in 2026, and we are excited about the opportunities ahead. Under Mr. Wool's leadership, we expect continued growth with our business model that emphasizes prudent management while also being flexible and a trusted partner to continue to provide exceptional customer service to our clients.”

 

2025 Highlights

 

Revenue of $123.1 million, up over 487% from the prior year revenue of $21.0 million.

 

oUnderwriting revenues totaled $79.0 million in 2025 as compared to $11.4 million in 2024, representing a 596% increase year over year.

 

oCarried interest totaled $22.7 million or approximately 18% of 2025 total revenue as compared to no such revenue in 2024.

 

Loss from operations of $55.7 million, an increase of $47.0 million compared to a loss of $8.7 million in 2024, reflecting the increased expenses related to $55.0 million of non-cash stock-based compensation recorded in 2025.

 

Other income of $42.6 million, an increase of $48.6 million compared to a loss of $6.0 million in 2024. This increase was primarily driven by the increase in the market value of the Company’s strategic investment in American Bitcoin Corp., which began trading on the Nasdaq exchange on September 3, 2025 under the ticker symbol “ABTC.” The Company sold its ABTC shares in January 2026 for $32.4 million in cash.

 

Net loss to common stockholders of $22.4 million, an increase of $7.7 million compared to a net loss of $14.7 million in 2024. This increased net loss to common stockholders is as a result of a $53.4 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation costs as well as $7.3 million of tax expense recognized in 2025.

 

oExcluding the non-cash stock-based compensation, the non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) to common stockholders was $32.6 million as compared to a net loss of $13.1 million for 2024, or a $45.6 million increase year over year.

 

The Company declared $22.2 million of dividends during the year including a $10.0 million dividend announced in December for shareholders of record on January 6, 2026. This represents the first time in the Company’s history paying dividends, reflecting the continued commitment to drive shareholder value.

 

The Company’s liquid assets (defined as: “cash, marketable securities, securities owned and receivable from clearing brokers”) totaled $94.3 million at the end of 2025, representing an increase of $67.2 million from year-end 2024 or a 248% increase, total assets increased $65.8 million or 140% to $112.9 million, and total stockholders’ equity increased by $29.5 million to $69.4 million compared to $39.9 million, or a 74% increase year over year.
