- • Revenue increased modestly from EUR 0.23 million (2024) to EUR 0.31 million (2025), but net results were materially impaired by EUR 1.5 million in write-downs on receivables from subsidiary Incredulous Labs Ltd.

Summary
Advanced Blockchain AG, the Berlin-based venture builder and blockchain sector investor listed on the Frankfurt Scale and Düsseldorf Primary Market, released its 2025 annual financial statements on June 30, 2026, and formally invited shareholders to its Annual General Meeting scheduled for August 27, 2026. The company's 2025 operating year was dominated by organizational restructuring and remediation efforts rather than aggressive growth, reflecting a deliberate pivot toward operational maturity and compliance.
The company's revenue grew to EUR 0.31 million in 2025 from EUR 0.23 million in the prior year, representing approximately 35% year-over-year growth at the top line. However, this modest revenue expansion was substantially offset by significant non-operating charges. The most material impact came from EUR 1.5 million in write-downs on receivables, primarily from Incredulous Labs Ltd., the company's Nicosia-based subsidiary, and nakamo.to GmbH of Remscheid. These write-downs were attributed predominantly to negative performance in the token portfolio held at Incredulous Labs, indicating exposure to broader cryptocurrency market volatility and valuation deterioration.
Beyond portfolio valuation adjustments, net earnings were further pressured by elevated legal and advisory expenses incurred during the company's comprehensive review of historical matters, particularly those related to the Cyprus subsidiary. This remediation process, while operationally costly in the near term, was framed by management as essential to strengthening governance, control, and compliance infrastructure. The company implemented multiple organizational measures designed to increase process transparency, efficiency, and resilience—objectives aligned with rebuilding institutional confidence in capital markets.
Management articulated a forward-looking strategy branded "ABAG 2.0," centered on conducting detailed reviews of the investment and token portfolio with explicit prioritization frameworks. Two concrete strategic initiatives emerged: monetization of the company's Dubai trading license and selective deployment of capital toward tokenization projects. The company's deliberate focus on governance reinforcement and historical matter resolution in 2025, combined with modest revenue growth and significant write-downs, suggests Advanced Blockchain AG is prioritizing long-term capital market credibility and operational durability over near-term earnings expansion.
