Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) posted a $405.9 million net loss for the first quarter of 2026, dominated by non-cash losses. Because nothing says “financial stability” like pretending your crypto is still worth what you paid for it in 2021.
Unrealized losses on digital assets and equity securities reached $368.7 million, almost the entire shortfall. Stock-based compensation added $11.8 million, alongside $11.5 million of accreted interest. Nothing like rewarding employees with shares that are now worthless, but hey, at least it’s tax-deductible!
Bitcoin Treasury Drives Paper Losses as Prices Drop
TMTG’s crypto treasury is valued at $821.9 million against a $1.24 billion cost basis, per CoinGecko data. The position is roughly $423.06 million underwater overall. Because nothing says “smart investing” like buying Bitcoin at $118k and holding until it’s worth less than a Tesla Model 3.
The treasury contains 9,542 Bitcoin (BTC) worth $767 million, acquired at an average cost of $118,529 per coin. TMTG’s Bitcoin balance dropped by 2,000 BTC in late February, down from 11,542 BTC. Guess they panicked and sold during the market crash? Or maybe they just needed cash to pay their lawyers.
Bitcoin fell roughly 22% during Q1 2026, marking its worst quarter since 2018. The company also holds 756 million Cronos (CRO), worth $54 million. Because nothing says “diversified portfolio” like putting 99% of your money into a single asset that’s now a sinking ship.

Trump Media’s Financial Assets Climb to $2.1 Billion as Revenue Stays Thin
Meanwhile, the operator of Truth Social produced just $0.9 million in revenue. Operating cash flows totaled $17.9 million, marking the company’s fourth straight positive quarter. Wow, four quarters in a row! Must be what happens when you charge people $10 a month to post conspiracy theories.
The firm’s total assets reached $2.2 billion. The figure nearly tripled from $759 million a year earlier. Thanks to the magic of accounting, where your losses are just “unrealized” and your gains are always “on paper.”
“Trump Media is using its strong balance sheet and positive operating cash flow to continue growing all our businesses and platform infrastructure. Even as we work toward advancing our proposed merger with TAE Technologies as quickly as possible, we’re identifying new growth opportunities and new ways to increase shareholder value,” Interim CEO Kevin McGurn said. Translation: We hope this works out, but if it doesn’t, it’s definitely not our fault.
Trump Media also said it is developing new Truth Social features, including prediction-market tools, a sports section, expanded use of artificial intelligence across the platform, and more. Because nothing says “trust us” like letting people bet on political outcomes with a side of machine learning.
