The Company increased SOL-per-fully diluted share by 36% annualized to 0.0729 vs. 0.0669 prior quarter 

AUSTIN, TX, July 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Forward Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: FWDI) (the “Company” or “Forward Industries”), the leading Solana treasury company, today announced that it acquired over 500,000 SOL during fiscal Q3 of 2026 at an average purchase price of approximately $79 per SOL, increasing its total Solana treasury to 7.55M SOL as of June 30, 2026. During fiscal Q3 of 2026, the Company sold 93,642 shares of common stock as part of its At The Market offering while delivering an annualized SOL-per-share growth of 36%, demonstrating its ability to raise capital from public-markets in an accretive manner for shareholders.

As the largest Solana treasury company, Forward is uniquely positioned following its inclusion in the Russell 2000 and Russell 3000 Indexes to raise capital in public markets when its shares trade at a premium to net asset value (NAV). This access to public-market capital is another tool Forward can use alongside its industry-leading cost of capital, which the Company has established using fwdSOL as collateral with institutional partners. This structure gives Forward the ability to access liquidity while generating positive carry by borrowing against its SOL at a lower cost of capital than its staking yield between 6.4% to 7.3%.

Forward’s common shares outstanding as of June 30th, 2026 was 73,846,883 compared to 76,314.617 as of March 31, 2026, and Forward’s SOL-per-fully diluted share has grown to 0.0729 as of June 30, 2026 from 0.0669 as of March 31, 2026.

Ryan Navi, Chief Investment Officer of Forward Industries, stated, “Our mandate is simple: maximize SOL per share and create long-term shareholder value. Our execution this quarter demonstrates our ability to employ multiple capital formation strategies to acquire additional SOL in a highly accretive manner. By repurchasing shares when Forward trades at a discount to NAV and issuing equity when our shares trade at a premium, we dynamically allocate capital in a way that compounds SOL per share and enhances long-term intrinsic value. Our recent inclusion in the Russell 2000 and Russell 3000 further expands our access to institutional capital and broadens our investor base, creating another efficient avenue to fund SOL accumulation on terms that benefit our existing shareholders.”
