Press releases
Wednesday, 7 December 2022 | SAINT HELIER, Jersey - Nasdaq Stockholm's listing committee has today approved CoinShares International Limited's ("CoinShares" or the "Company") application for admission of the Company's shares to trading on Nasdaq Stockholm's main market. The approval is conditional upon customary conditions being fulfilled, for example that a prospectus is approved by and registered with the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority ("SFSA") (Sw. Finansinspektionen) and that the requirements on liquidity of the Company's shares are fulfilled. First day of trading on Nasdaq Stockholm is scheduled to 19 December 2022 and last day of trading on Nasdaq First North Growth Market is scheduled to 16 December 2022.
The Company listed on Nasdaq First North Growth Market in March 2021 under the ticker "CS" and since the listing, the Company has worked strategically to develop the organization and its internal processes to meet the enhanced requirements placed on companies listed on Nasdaq Stockholm. The Company's board of directors and executive committee believe that a listing of the Company's shares on Nasdaq Stockholm will bring, amongst others, the following benefits:
- by trading on the most senior marketplace in Sweden, enhance the regulatory profile, and thereby also the credibility, of the Group;
- increase the Group's presence in the wider digital asset community which can contribute to higher levels of engagement with the Group's products and services;
- increase awareness of the Group among analysts, prospective investors and the media;
- make the Company's shares more attractive as a means of payment in connection with potential acquisitions;and
- enabling investment in the Company's shares by institutional players who otherwise may be restricted to invest in companies that are listed on a MTF.
It is hoped that the above-mentioned benefits will contribute towards continued value creation for the Company's shareholders, and it is therefore the opinion of the board of directors and the executive committee team that a listing on Nasdaq Stockholm is in the interest of all shareholders of the Company.
There is no offering or issuance of new shares in connection with the Company's shares being admitted to trading on Nasdaq Stockholm. Shareholders of CoinShares do not need to take any action in connection with the change of listing venue. The shares will be traded under the same ticker (CS) and ISIN code (JE00BLD8Y945).
Prospectus
CoinShares will prepare a prospectus in connection with the admission to trading of the Company's shares on Nasdaq Stockholm. The prospectus is expected to be approved by the SFSA and published on CoinShares' website, https://coinshares.com/investor-relations/reports-portal/ on or about 14 December 2022.
Advisors
Baker McKenzie is the Company's legal advisor in connection with the admission to trading of the Company's shares on Nasdaq Stockholm.

CoinShares has significantly reduced its exposure to FTX over the past week to approximately £26.6M. The Group's financial health remains solid despite its remaining exposure to FTX, with £240.6M net asset value as at 30 September 2022. XBT Provider and CoinShares Physical ETPs remain fully hedged and collateralized.
10 November 2022 | SAINT HELIER, Jersey | CoinShares International Limited (Nasdaq First North Growth Market: CS;US OTCQX: CNSRF) (“CoinShares'' or the “Group”), Europe's largest and longest standing digital asset investment firm, discloses its exposure to the FTX Exchange, while confirming that the Group has no exposure to FTX’s sister company, Alameda Research. The ability to withdraw funds from FTX was halted on 8 November.
The Group’s total exposure to FTX amounts to approximately $30.3M (£26.6M), and is comprised of:
- 190 BTC (approximately $3.1M) and 1,000 ETH (approximately $1.2M) in pending withdrawals which were submitted prior to the halting of withdrawals by FTX;
- approximately $25.9M of USD and USDC;
- approximately $110k of other assets.
The above represent proprietary assets of the Group, and XBT and CoinShares Physical noteholders would remain unaffected in the event that they were not recoverable. Noteholders may at any time access the Armanino TrustExplorer Attestation reports (CoinShares Physicals and XBT Provider), which are published daily.
CoinShares CEO, Jean Marie Mognetti stated, “In light of the high level of public scrutiny over the financial position of FTX and in the spirit of transparency, we have decided to disclose our current exposure to FTX. Thanks to our prudent approach to risk, we had materially reduced our exposure to FTX exchange in response to increased volatility and uncertainty, ahead of FTX’s decision to freeze further withdrawals.
The financial health of the Group remains strong. As recently announced in the Group’s recent earnings results, CoinShares’ net asset value as at 30 September 2022 stood at £240.6M”.

31 October 2022 | SAINT HELIER, Jersey | CoinShares International Limited (Nasdaq First North Growth Market: CS;US OTCQX: CNSRF) (“CoinShares”), Europe's largest and longest standing digital asset investment firm, announces its financial results for its third quarter ended 30 September 2022.
Jean-Marie Mognetti, Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares said:
“We are pleased to announce our resilient performance during the quarter, returning to profitable growth despite recent and residual turbulence in the digital asset space.
Key metrics include our Adjusted EBITDA (£6.4m in the quarter) and the significant increase in our net asset position (up 20% year-to-date at £240.6m, from £200.0m as at December 2021). Together, these demonstrate CoinShares’ ability to withstand the sector-wide difficulties that we are all experiencing this year. We continue to generate strong and stable revenues within our Asset Management business unit, which is in turn being supported by additional income and gains from our Capital Market’s activities.
We have continued to develop the Group and progressed a series of important strategic developments in the quarter with more planned for the rest of the year. Importantly, CoinShares’ acquisition of Napoleon Asset Management (renamed as CoinShares France in September), the first AIFM-regulated crypto asset manager in Europe, received AMF final approval in July, while we completed the rebranding and relaunch of our Consumer Solutions platform – formerly Napoleon – as HAL.trading in September.
We are progressing with our plans to move our shares onto the main Nasdaq market in Stockholm in due course. The team has made significant progress to this end in Q3, and will continue to keep the market up-to-date with all material developments on this front.
CoinShares continues to be well-equipped to navigate recent external market turbulence thanks to our resilient strategy which demonstrates the strength of our business model.”
Q3 2022 financial highlights
- Total revenue in the year-to-date of £42.7m (year-to-date 2021: £55.1m)
- Total comprehensive income for Q3 of £20.0m (Q3 2021: £26.2m)
- Adjusted EBITDA of £6.4m (Q3 2021: £26.0m)
Q3 2022 operational highlights
- Important steps taken towards the Group’s long-term strategy, including progressing plans to uplist the Groups’ shares on the Nasdaq Stockholm Main Market and relaunching a new version of our Consumer Solutions platform under the brand HAL.trading.
- Continued investment in the asset management division, with CoinShares Physical’s product suite remaining the European market leader with net inflows of $127m. Across Q3, CoinShares Physical was the European leader in BTC and ETH net inflows, and the division launched a new CoinShares Physical Staked Algorand ETP in July 2022, taking the total number of products across CoinShares Physical and XBT Provider to 18.
- Net asset position has increased 20% year-to-date, to £240.6m at the end of Q3 (December 2021: £200.0m), placing CoinShares in the perfect position to emerge from this consolidation phase stronger than ever.
- Completed our share buyback programme (which ran from June 22 2022 to September 22 2022) as the considered best use of capital while our share prices remains below net asset value, buying back 249,396 shares (in the market, or by cancelling vested and in-the-money options) in Q3 at an average price of SEK 21.68 for a total of SEK 5,407,227.

HAL enables crypto traders to effortlessly trade crypto-assets on centralised exchanges with advanced trading strategies designed by CoinShares’ quant team.
September 20th, 2022 | SAINT HELIER, Jersey | CoinShares (“the Company”), Europe’s largest and longest standing full-service digital asset investment and trading group, launches HAL, a leading crypto-assets trading strategies platform.
HAL simplifies crypto trading by offering all exchanges users access to trading algorithms designed by CoinShares’ quants. Users can connect HAL to their preferred trading platform in a few clicks, where they are able to choose the trading strategies that suit them, and benefit from trading algorithms designed or curated. HAL is the only platform of its kind to offer easy access to strategies designed by professionals with proven experience in crypto trading, rather than the complex marketplace offerings targeting advanced traders with bots designed by non-professional traders.
HAL aims to simplify and democratise crypto trading, which many investors consider complex. It is designed to enable more users to boost their trading with professional algorithms, a simple user experience, fair and transparent pricing, and educational content.
Simple and fair pricing:
- €19,90 per month
- Non-binding offer
- No limit on selecting strategies
Better care taken with strategies:
- The CoinShares’ team is continually working on improving existing strategies
- The CoinShares’ team will regularly develop new indices and strategies
The launch of HAL is part of CoinShares' broader integrated strategy, which, after enabling exposure to digital assets to traditional finance players via its suite of crypto ETPs, is now addressing the target audience of crypto traders
Jean-Marie Mognetti, Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares, commented: “We are delighted to launch HAL under CoinShares. We acquired Napoleon, which created Napbots, because we could immediately see our common goals: to democratise access to, and educate investors about, trading crypto assets. In a new, still-evolving ecosystem, we are very proud to be at the cutting edge of providing professional-level products, with simple user experience, to traders - enabling them to do much more with their crypto than simply ‘hodl’.”

2 August 2022 | SAINT HELIER, Jersey | CoinShares International Limited (Nasdaq First North Growth Market: CS;US OTCQX: CNSRF) (“CoinShares”),Europe's largest and longest standing full-service digital asset investment and trading group today announced financial results for its second quarter ended 30 June 2022.
Jean-Marie Mognetti, Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares said:
“We are pleased to announce a resilient performance during this second quarter, despite the ongoing turbulence in the digital asset arena. While our Asset Management business continued to generate solid profit, the Capital Markets business experienced a one-off loss of £17.7 million following the de-pegging of US Terra. The financial impact of this episode, despite being relatively small when compared to the losses incurred by other players in our industry, has of course had a material impact on our quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter stands at a loss of £8.2 million. Despite the loss incurred in Q2, our year to date performance evidences a robust underlying business, with Adjusted EBITDA of £10.5 million and total comprehensive income of £20.1 million.
In light of the market turmoil we have reviewed our risk profile and moved into a more defensive mode. We have commenced taking steps to reduce both our cost base and various exposure across the group and this conservative approach will enable us to preserve our capital, ready to take advantage of opportunities in the digital asset space as they emerge.
In the meantime, we continue to develop the group steadily, with a series of important product launches during the quarter and more planned for the rest of the year. Most importantly we have completed the acquisition of Napoleon Asset Management following approval from the French regulator in July which brings with it an AIFMD/MiFiD licence, opening up a wealth of new development opportunities. Our strategy also remains on track, including our plans to uplist our shares onto the main Nasdaq market in Stockholm in due course.
CoinShares has sufficient resources to navigate the markets during this volatile time thanks to an effective strategy, a robust balance sheet and a seasoned, world class team. The breadth and depth of our experience in digital assets ensures that we can take a long-term view as we continue to build the future of investing.”
- Q2 2022 financial highlights:
- Total revenue for the quarter of £14.2 million (Q2 2021: £19.6 million)
- Adjusted EBITDA loss of £8.2 million (Q2 2021: £28.6 million) following a one-off loss of £17.7 million from the liquidation of Group’s holdings in UST.
- Total comprehensive loss for the quarter of £0.1 million (Q2 2021: income of £26.6 million),
Q2 2022 operational highlights:- Important steps taken towards the Group’s long-term strategy, including progressing plans to uplist CoinShares onto the Nasdaq Stockholm Main Market and completing the integration of our consumer platform, Napoleon.
- Continued investment in the asset management division, having launched five new CoinShares Physical products in Q2: CoinShares Physical FTX Token, CoinShares Physical Chainlink, CoinShares Physical Uniswap, CoinShares Physical Staked Matic, and CoinShares Physical Staked Cosmos.
- Gained the Alternative Investment Fund Manager (AIFMD/MiFID) licence;one of the most rigorous European regulations for Asset Managers and a key component in CoinShares’ ambition to become the leading investment group in the digital asset sector.
- Undertaken a thorough review of our risk management procedures and improved the trading platform to ensure greater transparency following the losses incurred by the UST de-pegging.

The transaction signed and completed on 30 June 2022.
The transaction follows the acquisition of the Napoleon Group last December and fits with CoinShares’ strategy of developing into a full-service digital asset investment and trading group, within a strong regulatory framework.
CoinShares is a strong advocate of regulation in the digital asset industry and has an extensive list of regulated products and services. The Alternative Investment Fund Manager (“AIFM”) licence is one of the most rigorous European regulations for Asset Managers and is a key component in CoinShares' ambition to become the leading investment group in the digital asset sector. The acquisition of Napoleon Asset Management allows CoinShares to offer AIFM compliant products and services, in addition to its market leading position as an issuer of crypto Exchange Traded Products (ETPs).
The AIFM licence carries a passporting regime that allows it to provide and market services and products throughout the European Union. The acquisition will also enhance CoinShares’ offering by leveraging active investment strategies based on algorithmic trading and artificial intelligence for digital assets built by Napoleon Asset Management quants teams.
Jean-Marie Mognetti, Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares, said: “After the recent events in the digital asset sector, it has never been more clear that strong regulation is needed for crypto to thrive. As such we are very pleased to have received this approval from the AMF to acquire Napoleon Asset Management. Bringing the company into our group is a further step in the right direction towards investor protection. We are proud to be one of the most regulated digital asset investment firms in the industry. Our regulated status in a growing number of jurisdictions is one of CoinShares’ principal strengths;it reassures our clients and demonstrates our plans to lead Europe’s digital asset sector.”
Jean-Charles Dudek, Chief Executive Officer of Napoleon Asset Management, said: “We have continued to build upon the synergies between our two businesses since CoinShares acquired the Napoleon Group last December. The integration of Napoleon Asset Management into the group was anticipated at that time but necessarily needed to await consideration by and approval of the change of control by the AMF. Now that approval has been granted, this acquisition by CoinShares will further strengthen the ties between us.”
Technical note:
On 30 November 2021, CoinShares entered into a sale and purchase agreement (the “Group SPA”) to acquire the entire Napoleon Group. The transaction was completed on Thursday, 16 December 2021. The Group SPA contained an option to acquire Napoleon Asset Management, the exercise of which was subject to prior approval of the change of control by the Autorité des Marchés Financier. That approval was received on 28 June 2022. CoinShares exercised its option to acquire Napoleon Asset Management and entered into a sale and purchase agreement pursuant to the terms set out in the Group SPA which signed and completed simultaneously on 30 June 2022.

Newly listed ETPs are 100% physically-backed and feature reduced management fees of 0.0% p.a.
June 21, 2022 | SAINT HELIER, Jersey - CoinShares (“the Company”) (Nasdaq First North Growth Market: CS;US OTCQX: CNSRF), Europe's largest digital asset investment firm with US$1.6bn* in AUM, today announced the addition of two physically-backed ETPs to their growing range of staked ETPs listed on Germany’s main market Xetra.
Both CoinShares Physical Staked Matic (Ticker: CPYG) and CoinShares Physical Staked Cosmos (Ticker: COMS) leverage the Company’s proprietary technology platform, Galata, to provide investors with exposure to the underlying cryptocurrency plus an additional yield of 5.0% p.a.
CoinShares Physical Staked Matic
- Management Fee: Reduced to 0.0% p.a.
- Staking Reward: 5.0% p.a.
- ISIN: GB00BNRRB013
- Ticker: CPYG
- WKN: A3GVCY
MATIC is the native token of Polygon;a Proof of Stake blockchain tied to the Ethereum network which offers a suite of scaling solutions to help make Ethereum faster and cheaper while preserving most of the decentralised features and security benefits. Its future scaling solutions range from rollups that bundle and process transactions, to data layers where users can store transaction data cheaply.
CoinShares Physical Staked Cosmos
- Management Fee: Reduced to 0.0% p.a.
- Staking Reward: 5.0% p.a.
- ISIN: GB00BNRRF980
- Ticker: COMS
- WKN: A3GY73
Launched in 2019, Cosmos is the world’s largest ecosystem of interconnected chains. Cosmos is a Proof of Stake network that allows users to create their own blockchains with their easy-to-use software development kit. There are dozens of individual blockchains running with the Cosmos architecture and moving forward, Cosmos can be used to secure many of these chains. In return for securing the services on the Cosmos Hub, transaction fees and staking rewards are distributed to Cosmos stakers.
Frank Spiteri, CoinShares’ Chief Revenue Officer, commented on the news, “With CoinShares’ Staked ETPs investors are gaining exposure not only to the price of the underlying cryptocurrency, but also the additional yield associated with participating in that blockchain’s security. We are delighted with the positive feedback we’ve received around our staked crypto ETPs so far, and it is our expertise and experience within crypto markets, and crypto foundations which makes innovations like this possible within our products.”
According to their website, CoinShares' Staked ETPs are built to allow the Issuer to share staking rewards with investors by both a) reducing the management fee and b) increasing the Coin Entitlement of the ETP each day, as staking awards accrue.
The Issuer formally announced on June 21, 2022 a reduction in the management fees to 0.0% p.a. and additional Staking Rewards of 5.0% for both the Matic and Cosmos ETPs.
CoinShares also notes that staked coins do not move from the secure custodian where they are stored, and the ETPs remain 100% physically backed at all times.

Throughout 2022 CoinShares plans to continue launching new, regulated and innovative products that address investor needs and allow them to participate in the growth of digital assets.

Galata acts as a bridge between traditional finance and decentralised finance and it links different exchange platforms and different services that are today crucial to the success of CoinShares’ Capital Markets and Asset Management businesses. CoinShares aims to transform Galata into a marketable trading platform in 2022 through a Platform as a Service revenue model aimed at any financial services firms who want exposure to digital assets for themselves or their clients.
- Listing – CoinShares is progressing plans to uplist from Stockholm Nasdaq First North this year to the venue with the highest level of regulatory standards, Nasdaq Stockholm Main Market, which will allow a deeper pool of investors to access CoinShares.
Commenting on the year ahead, Jean-Marie Mognetti, Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares said:
“Our mission is to build the future of investing by providing the premier investment technology for the digital asset sector. We are continuing to invest in our long-term future and 2022 will be a year of further change for us as we transform into a product-centric organisation with a customer-centric culture.”

Double launch brings the firm’s total number of ETPs listed to seven so far in 2022.
May 04, 2022 | SAINT HELIER, Jersey - CoinShares (“the Company”) (Nasdaq First North Growth Market: CS;US OTCQX: CNSRF), Europe's largest digital asset investment firm with US$3.3bn* in AUM, today announced the launch of two physically-backed ETPs on Germany’s main market Xetra.
CoinShares Physical Chainlink (Ticker: CCHA) and CoinShares Physical Uniswap (Ticker: CIWP) have been built to leverage the Company’s technology platform, Galata, which connects CeFi platforms to digital asset protocols and markets and will allow investors to capture the growth and continued adoption of new form financial services replicated on cryptocurrency rails.

Chainlink is an oracle protocol designed to bridge real-world information to the smart contracts running on a blockchain platform. While often serving as a key foundational support in general crypto applications, Chainlink is a primary data provider for exchange, lending, and asset management protocols. As a result, Chainlink price feeds are a critical reference point in the integrity of DeFi markets, providing the information necessary to trigger liquidation, mint/burn operations, and settle derivative agreements.

- Ticker: CIWP
- WKN: A3GYRG
Launched in 2018, Uniswap is a tenured exchange application that remains the leader in enabling users to transact digital assets within a cryptocurrency platform. Uniswap's novel design enables users to both trade and provide the liquidity that supports trading activities within its application, creating a two-sided and self-sustaining marketplace whereby liquidity providers share in the revenue generated by traders' fees. To sum up, Uniswap is a leading alternative to centralized exchanges.
Frank Spiteri, CoinShares’ Chief Revenue Officer, commented on the news, “As the digital assets sector evolves, so too does investor interest in protocols beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. A more thematic approach to digital assets is emerging amongst those most familiar with crypto, and we expect that trend to continue as research and investor education improves. We are excited to add both Chainlink and Uniswap to our lineup of ETPs, allowing investors to access specific key areas of the digital asset ecosystem via cost-effective, listed regulated products.”
This double launch brings the total number of ETPs listed by CoinShares so far in 2022 to seven. Last week, the firm announced the launch of CoinShares FTX Physical FTX Token in partnership with leading regulated cryptocurrency exchange FTX, with seed capital of approximately US$40M.
