ARLINGTON, Va., April 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — OBOOK Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: OWLS) (the “Company” or “OwlTing”), a blockchain technology company operating as the OwlTing Group, today announced full year 2025 results and highlighted the completion of the core infrastructure buildout underlying OwlPay, its compliant global settlement platform for stablecoin-enabled cross-border payments.
During 2025, the Company completed its Nasdaq direct listing, expanded U.S. regulatory coverage to 39 state money transmitter licenses, integrated key settlement rails, including Circle Payments Network, and positioned OwlPay for enterprise-scale onboarding and commercialization in 2026.
Full Year 2025 Highlights: The Infrastructure Buildout Year
- Completed the core buildout of OwlPay’s global settlement infrastructure, encompassing enterprise stablecoin on-ramp and off-ramp capabilities, wallet infrastructure, cross-border settlement, and fiat payout capabilities, designed to support enterprise fund flows between stablecoins and fiat currencies.
- Integrated key settlement and payout rails, including Circle Payments Network for stablecoin settlement and Visa Direct for cross-border remittance through the OwlPay Cash App, broadening OwlPay’s interoperability across both stablecoin and global payout networks.
- Expanded U.S. regulatory coverage to 39 state Money Transmitter Licenses as of December 31, 2025. Upon obtaining the Nevada license in January 2026, the Company now holds 40 state licenses1 and maintains a VASP registration in Poland and an Electronic Payment Intermediary Service Provider (Bank API) license in Japan. Active license applications are pending for an EMI license and CASP registration under MiCAR in the EU, a fund transfer service license and stablecoin license in Japan, with licensing preparations underway in Hong Kong, Singapore, and select Latin American markets, subject to applicable regulatory review and approval.
Recent Operational Highlights
- Expanded Visa collaboration and Cross River Bank onboarding to strengthen U.S. payment capability. In April 2026, the Company integrated Visa Direct within OwlPay’s payment infrastructure, creating a card-to-wallet on-ramp channel that enables eligible U.S. debit cardholders to fund USDC transactions directly, now live within OwlPay Harbor and OwlPay Wallet Pro, subject to applicable issuer, partner, compliance, and program requirements. The Company also completed account onboarding and due diligence with Cross River Bank, establishing U.S. dollar fund movement and treasury connectivity that supports OwlPay’s enterprise on-ramp, off-ramp, and payout flows.
- Expanded OwlPay Harbor enterprise client base. As of the date of this release, OwlPay Harbor had 36 enterprise clients with executed commercial agreements, up from more than 20 clients reported on March 31, 2026, with aggregate annual payment volume across these clients’ own existing businesses growing from over US$5 billion to over US$6 billion.2 The 36 clients comprise 29 with both an executed Master Services Agreement (MSA) and fee schedule, and 7 clients with an executed fee schedule currently advancing toward MSA execution.3
- Diversified client verticals and global corridor coverage. The OwlPay Harbor enterprise client base spans cross-border payment companies, financial institutions, digital wallets, blockchain and Web3 platforms, merchant platforms, digital banks, cryptocurrency exchanges, and humanitarian organizations. Cross-border payment companies represent the largest client category by count. Approximately one-third of these clients operate cross-border payment activity spanning four or more geographic regions, most frequently the United States, Greater Asia, the United Arab Emirates, Europe, and Africa4. The breadth of these anticipated client payment flows reflects a broader institutional evaluation of regulated stablecoin settlement in cross-border payments; enterprises with multi-corridor flow requirements are seeking to reduce their reliance on fragmented correspondent banking networks, multiple payment partners, and disparate compliance counterparties through more integrated and regulated settlement infrastructure.
- Secured US$10 million convertible investment. In April 2026, the Company secured US$10 million in gross proceeds from Lind Global Asset Management, with access to up to US$50 million in total funding, subject to mutual consent and other applicable conditions, to support global expansion of OwlPay payment infrastructure, regulatory licensing, and strategic growth initiatives.
- Announced collaboration with Arta Global Markets Limited (AGML). In January 2026, the Company announced a collaboration with AGML to integrate payment, trading, settlement, and custody capabilities in support of digital asset on/off ramp services and cross-currency payments across more than 30 local currencies.
Management Commentary
Darren Wang, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at OwlTing Group, commented, “2025 was a foundational year for OwlTing. We completed our Nasdaq direct listing and, more importantly, the core buildout of the infrastructure we believe will power the next phase of compliant, stablecoin-enabled cross-border settlement, spanning OwlPay Harbor, payment gateway connectivity, wallet infrastructure, and consumer applications.
As of April 2026, OwlPay Harbor continues onboarding 36 enterprise clients across multiple geographies and verticals, which we view as a meaningful early indicator of enterprise demand forming around the infrastructure we built. 2025 was a year of building infrastructure; from 2026 onward, we are advancing enterprise adoption and commercial expansion.”
Winnie Lin, Chief Financial Officer at OwlTing Group, stated, “Our 2025 financial profile reflects a deliberate transition year. Revenue of US$7.9 million was primarily generated by our existing Taiwan-based businesses, fiat payment gateway services, hospitality software, and e-commerce. What we were doing in parallel was building something fundamentally different: the global payment and stablecoin settlement infrastructure underpinning OwlPay Harbor, including 39 U.S. state money transmitter licenses, Circle Payments Network integration, and the full enterprise on-ramp, off-ramp, wallet, and payout connectivity stack. That buildout was deliberate, and 2025 results should be viewed in that context.
The reported results include US$16.8 million in non-cash share-based compensation and approximately US$6.9 million in non-recurring listing-related expenses, together accounting for US$23.7 million. Excluding these items, the underlying operating loss improved to US$8.2 million from US$10.3 million in 2024, with the adjusted recurring cost base essentially flat year-over-year. Entering 2026, those listing costs fall away, and the infrastructure we spent 2025 building is live. OwlPay Harbor is designed to generate international, transaction-based, infrastructure-driven revenue, which is a fundamentally different profile from our 2025 mix. Certain Visa Direct-enabled use cases carry higher fee economics than core settlement flows, adding yield as volume scales. With a largely fixed cost structure, we expect incremental transaction revenue to flow through at structurally favorable margins as enterprise clients activate.”
Full Year 2025 Financial Results
Throughout this press release, references to “Adjusted” financial measures exclude share-based compensation expenses recognized in connection with RSUs and RSAs granted under the Company’s Share Incentive Plan. These non-IFRS measures are not prepared in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered a substitute for IFRS financial results.
Revenue
Total revenue was US$7.9 million in 2025, compared to US$7.6 million in 2024. Revenue performance during the period should be viewed in the context of a transition year, during which the Company intentionally prioritized the completion of its core payment infrastructure over short-term revenue acceleration.
- Revenue from payment services increased nearly 10% to US$4.4 million in 2025, compared to US$4.0 million in 2024, driven by higher gross payment volumes and an expanding customer base across core markets. Payment services contributed 56.2% of total revenue in 2025, compared to 53.2% in the prior year, reflecting the continued strength of the Company’s payment operations during the transition year.
- Revenue from hospitality services increased to US$2.9 million in 2025 from US$2.8 million in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by growth in OwlNest subscription revenue, which rose 26.6%, supported by 9.5% growth in OwlNest Subscribers5 to over 2,800 as of December 31, 2025 and 11.6% year-over-year growth in OwlNest’s Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) to above US$1 million.
- Revenue from the e-commerce platform declined to US$0.5 million from US$0.8 million in 2024. The decrease reflects the Company’s continued strategic reallocation of internal resources toward higher-growth business lines, particularly its payment infrastructure platform.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue in 2025 was US$7.7 million compared to US$6.6 million in 2024, an increase of 16.7%, primarily reflecting the growth of the Company’s payment business and the inclusion of approximately US$0.9 million in non-cash share-based compensation recognized within cost of revenue.
Gross Profit
Gross profit in 2025 was US$0.2 million compared to US$1.01 million in 2024. Gross margin decreased to 2.6% from 13.3% in 2024, primarily due to the impact of share-based compensation expenses recognized within cost of revenue.
Adjusted gross profit (defined as gross profit excluding non-cash share-based compensation expenses recognized within cost of revenue) in 2025 grew 11.2% to US$1.1 million from US$1.0 million in 2024.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses totaled US$32.4 million in 2025, compared with US$9.9 million in 2024. The significant increase was primarily attributable to share-based compensation expenses recognized in connection with RSUs and RSAs granted under the Company’s share incentive plan, as well as higher legal, professional, and listing-related expenses incurred in connection with the Company’s Nasdaq listing in October 2025.
- Marketing and sales expenses increased to US$3.6 million in 2025 from US$2.0 million in 2024, primarily driven by share-based compensation expenses of US$1.6 million recognized in connection with RSAs granted under the Company’s share incentive plan, which were not present in the prior year. Excluding the non-cash share-based compensation impact, marketing and sales expenses would have been US$2.0 million, representing a 3.5% decrease compared to the prior year. The reduction in cash-based marketing and sales expenses was primarily driven by operational efficiency gains, including the use of internal productivity tools that reduced reliance on third-party content and marketing service providers, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and headcount-related costs as the Company expanded its sales team.
- General and administrative expenses increased to US$21.7 million in 2025 from US$5.2 million in 2024, primarily due to share-based compensation of US$10 million recognized in connection with RSAs and RSUs granted under the Company’s share incentive plan, which was not present in the prior year. Excluding the non-cash share-based compensation, general and administrative expenses would have been US$11.7 million, an increase of US$6.5 million from the prior year. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in legal and professional service fees from US$1.9 million in 2024 to US$7.3 million in 2025, as well as media, marketing, and other professional service expenses of US$1.5 million incurred in connection with the Company’s Nasdaq listing, both of which were primarily non-recurring in nature. Going forward, while the Company expects to continue incurring costs associated with maintaining its public company status, the absence of one-time listing-related costs is expected to result in a moderation of general and administrative expenses compared to the significant year-over-year increase recorded in 2025.
- Research and development expenses increased to US$7.0 million in 2025 from US$2.6 million in 2024, primarily due to share-based compensation of US$4.3 million recognized in connection with RSAs and RSUs granted under the Company’s share incentive plan. Excluding the non-cash share-based compensation impact, research and development expenses would have been approximately US$2.7 million, representing a 6.8% increase compared to the prior year, reflecting a modest increase in cash investment in technology and product development while maintaining spending discipline.
Net Loss
Net loss was US$31.9 million in 2025 compared to US$10.3 million in 2024. The significant increase was primarily attributable to share-based compensation expenses recognized in connection with RSUs and RSAs granted under the share incentive plan, as well as non-recurring listing-related professional expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating cash outflows totaled US$11.5 million in 2025, compared to US$9.1 million in 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to higher payments to suppliers and professional service providers, including non-recurring costs associated with the Company’s public listing in 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and restricted cash of US$9.4 million, compared to US$8.7 million as of December 31, 2024. Net cash provided by financing activities was US$13.6 million, primarily attributable to the capital in connection with equity financing during the year. During 2025, the Company raised US$16.6 million through equity financings and US$2.5 million through SAFE agreements. Subsequent to year-end, on April 3, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Lind Global Asset Management XV LLC for US$10 million in gross proceeds, with access to up to US$50 million in total funding subject to mutual consent, further strengthening the Company’s liquidity position to support continued execution of its infrastructure and commercialization roadmap.
Share Repurchase Program
On November 26, 2025, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to US$10 million of the Company’s Class A common stock. The repurchase program, effective for nine months, reflects the Board’s view that the repurchase authorization provides flexibility in capital allocation as the Company executes its long-term infrastructure strategy and evaluates near-term catalysts across its payment technology pipeline. Under the authorization, OwlTing may repurchase shares from time to time in the open market or through other methods permitted under applicable law, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, in accordance with applicable securities laws and Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company is not obligated to repurchase any specific number of shares, and the program may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time based on market conditions, corporate needs, or other factors deemed relevant by the Company.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had repurchased approximately 15,855 Class A Common Shares for approximately US$0.1 million at an average price of US$6.59 per share. As of December 31, 2025, approximately US$9.9 million remained available under the program.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures
This press release presents certain non-IFRS financial measures, including non-IFRS cost of revenue, non-IFRS gross profit, non-IFRS gross margin, non-IFRS marketing and sales expenses, non-IFRS general and administrative expenses, and non-IFRS research and development expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses recognized in connection with restricted share units (RSUs) and restricted share awards (RSAs) granted under the Company’s Share Incentive Plan. These non-IFRS financial measures are not prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures. A reconciliation of each non-IFRS financial measure to its most directly comparable IFRS measure is set forth in the accompanying financial tables.
The Company believes these non-IFRS financial measures provide useful information to investors by (i) isolating the cash component of the Company’s operating expenses, separate from the non-cash impact of equity-based incentives; (ii) providing a more meaningful comparison of the Company’s operational performance from period to period; and (iii) reflecting the underlying trends in the Company’s business operations independent of the recognition of share-based compensation.

| Adjusted costs of revenue | (5,130 | ) | (6,563 | ) | (6,741 | ) | ||
| Adjusted gross profit | 1,269 | 1,007 | 1,120 | |||||
Excluding share-based compensation, Adjusted costs of revenue increased from US$6.6 million in 2024 to US$6.7 million in 2025, an increase of approximately 2.7%, primarily reflecting the continued growth of our payment business. As a result, Adjusted gross profit improved from US$1.0 million to US$1.1 million, and Adjusted gross margin improved from 13.3% to 14.2%, primarily attributable to a favorable shift in our revenue mix, as OwlNest subscription fees grew as a proportion of total revenue from approximately 10.0% in 2024 to 12.2% in 2025.
Adjusted Marketing and Sales Expenses

| Adjusted marketing and sales | (2,456 | ) | (2,120 | ) | (2,045 | ) | ||
Excluding share-based compensation, Adjusted marketing and sales expenses decreased from US$2.1 million in 2024 to US$2.0 million in 2025, a decrease of approximately 3.5%, primarily attributable to our adoption of AI-assisted tools for content creation and marketing production, which reduced our reliance on third-party service providers, partially offset by an increase in headcount-related costs as we expanded our sales team.
Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses
| 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | ||||||
| US$000 | US$000 | US$000 | ||||||

| Adjusted general and administrative | (3,361 | ) | (5,232 | ) | (11,715 | ) | ||
Excluding share-based compensation, Adjusted general and administrative expenses increased from US$5.2 million in 2024 to US$11.7 million in 2025, an increase of US$6.5 million, primarily driven by (i) an increase in legal and professional service fees from US$1.9 million to US$7.3 million, and (ii) media, marketing, and other professional service expenses of US$1.5 million incurred in connection with our Nasdaq listing, both of which were primarily non-recurring in nature.

Excluding share-based compensation, Adjusted research and development expenses increased from US$2.6 million in 2024 to US$2.7 million in 2025, primarily driven by continued investment in our payment infrastructure and compliance capabilities.
1 All money transmission services in the United States are provided by OwlTing USA, Inc. (NMLS ID: 2324336), a wholly owned subsidiary of OBOOK Holdings Inc. As of April 29, 2026, OwlTing Group has obtained MTL licenses or their equivalent in 40 U.S. states. The Company is actively applying for licenses in additional jurisdictions. For a list of U.S. licenses obtained, please see https://www.owlting.com/owlpay/licenses?lang=en.
2 The US$5 billion and US$6 billion figures cited in this press release represent the aggregate estimated annual payment volume processed by these enterprise clients across their own existing businesses, based on information provided by clients at the time of engagement. They reflect the scale of enterprise activity that has selected OwlPay Harbor as a settlement infrastructure partner. These figures do not represent transaction volume processed through OwlPay Harbor, guaranteed revenue to OwlTing Group, or a financial forecast of any kind, and should not be used to derive revenue projections or financial performance estimates. The Company’s share of these client flows over time will depend on individual client activation, payment corridor availability, ongoing compliance review, and platform ramp-up.
3 The reporting scope applied as of the date of this release captures enterprise clients that have, at minimum, executed a fee schedule with the Company, representing the initial commercial commitment in OwlTing’s contracting workflow, with subsequent execution of a Master Services Agreement (MSA) representing full contractual onboarding. This scope differs from the criteria used in the Company’s first-quarter 2026 milestone disclosure dated March 31, 2026, which described clients with executed agreements together with clients in active onboarding processes. Period-over-period comparisons should be read with this methodology refinement in mind.
4 Corridor information reflects the geographic regions in which the 36 enterprise clients have indicated they conduct or plan to conduct cross-border payment activity, based on information provided by the clients at the time of engagement. It does not represent transaction volume processed through OwlPay Harbor in any of these corridors and may change over time.
5 An OwlNest Subscriber is defined as a customer with an active, paid OwlNest subscription as of the end of the applicable reporting period. The Company treats each customer account that has a corresponding contract as a unique OwlNest Subscriber, and a single organization with multiple branches may be counted as multiple OwlNest Subscribers.
