Bullish reported a substantial net loss of $785.47 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, a significant reversal from the $79.56 million net income in 2024. This loss was primarily driven by a negative change in the fair value of digital assets held, amounting to $674.97 million, reflecting broad digital asset price depreciation during the year. The company completed its initial public offering in August 2025, raising $1.21 billion in net proceeds, which provided capital but did not offset the operational and market-related losses. Additionally, Bullish carries a significant non-current debt of $505.6 million from related parties as of year-end 2025.
