FAQ: Forward Industries' Solana Treasury Strategy and Shareholder Update

The update covers Forward Industries' progress since launching its Solana treasury strategy, including operational highlights, financial developments, leadership changes, and treasury expansion details.

Forward Industries closed a $1.65 billion private placement led by Galaxy Digital, Multicoin Capital, and Jump Crypto, and authorized a share repurchase program to buy back up to $1 billion of common stock.

The company appointed Ryan Navi as Chief Investment Officer, brought on Georgia Quinn as General Counsel, and created a crypto advisory board with 25 members experienced in capital markets, digital assets, and the Solana ecosystem.

The company launched an institutional-grade validator on Solana, Forward's Proprietary Automated Market Maker (PropAMM), and fwdSOL (a liquid staking token to maximize yield from staked SOL).

Forward Industries partnered with fintech firm Superstate to allow stockholders to tokenize and hold FWDI shares on the Solana blockchain.

As of December 1, 2025, the company holds over 6.9 million SOL, has generated 6.82%-7.01% APY from validator infrastructure, is debt-free, and has $30 million in operating capital between USDC reserves and cash.

Samani stated that Forward has rapidly built the world's largest Solana treasury, deployed nearly all 6.9 million SOL across high-performance infrastructure, and is well-positioned to expand the treasury and compound SOL-per-share through initiatives like on-chain equity and accretive M&A.
