Net loss to common stockholders narrowed sequentially in Q3 2026 to $1.9 million as compared to $5.4 million for Q2 2026
NEW YORK, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Dominari Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: DOMH) ("Dominari" or the "Company"), today announced highlights of its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in the Company's quarterly SEC Form 10Q.
The Company stated that: "In the nine months ended September 30, 2026, while our revenues declined from the comparable period in 2025, we reduced our loss from operations to $40.6 million in the period from a $48.2 million loss from operations in the comparable period in 2025. This was driven by holding our gross margins steady at lower levels of revenue while decreasing our operating expenses by 65% in the third quarter compared to the third quarter of 2025, as well as an over 25% reduction in operating costs as compared to the nine months in the prior year. During the quarter, the annualized run-rate for recurring revenue from our management services increased to $3.5 million per year or by approximately $2.7 million as compared to that same line item on September 30, 2025". The Company further stated that: "We continued to focus on shareholder liquidity as we initiated a stock repurchase program with a target of buying back $5.0 million of the Company's shares. As of the date of this release, we have repurchased over 1.9 million shares for approximately $3.4 million."
Quarter and Year to Date Highlights
- Net loss to common shareholders sequentially decreased in the quarter by 65% to $1.9 million, from $5.4 million in Q2 2026.
- The Company's operating loss decreased in the year-to-date period by 16% or $7.6 million to $40.6 million, from $48.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
- Dominari Financial business segment remained profitable, reporting third quarter segment net income of $1.8 million and year-to-date segment net income of $12.7 million.
- Third quarter and year-to-date operating expenses decreased by $34.6 million and $37.2 million, respectively, as compared to the comparable periods in 2025.
- Raised approximately $3.3 million in the quarter with the Company's warrant inducement program announced in August of 2026.
Third Quarter Results
Third quarter revenue was $16.4 million, approximately 69% lower as compared with $52.4 million in the third quarter of 2025. This decrease was primarily driven by lower underwriting revenue of $25.7 million in the quarter due to fewer deal closings, lower carried interest of $3.7 million, lower commission revenue of $4.3 million, and $3.0 million of lower principal transactions compared to the third quarter of 2025. The Company's annual recurring revenue (ARR) increased to $3.6 million from $0.8 million at the end of Q2, 2025, reflecting an increase of 341%.
Operating costs and expenses decreased by $34.6 million, or 65%, to $18.3 million. Compensation and benefits decreased by $35.3 million, primarily reflecting a lower commission expense of approximately $30.0 million, partially offset by higher professional and other expenses of $1.4 million. As a result, of the lower revenues being offset by the reduced operating expenses, the operating loss increased in the third quarter of 2026 by $1.5 million to $1.9 million from $0.4 million in the prior-year period.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $1.9 million, or a loss of $0.08 per share, compared with net income attributable to common stockholders of $125.2 million, or earnings of $7.27 per share, in the third quarter of 2025. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by the Company's approximately $126.5 million of other income in Q3 2025 vs $0.3 million loss in 2026 which was primarily driven by the valuation increase from the investment in American Bitcoin Corp. ("ABTC).
Year-to-Date Operating Progress
For the nine months ending September 30, 2026, total revenue decreased by $29.7 million, or 30%, to $69.0 million compared to the nine months ending September 30, 2025. The primary driver of the reduced revenue was related to carried interest which was $11.5 million lower than the comparable period in 2025 reflecting the Company's carried interest from a single deal in 2025 that totaled $19.0 million of the $19.2 million in 2025 revenue. Underwriting revenue decreased by $10.6 million, or 18%, to $48.0 million, reflecting increased volatility in the capital markets resulting in lower deal flow. Additionally, principal trading was $5.8 million lower in the 2026 year to date period as well.
The first nine months of 2026 operating costs and expenses declined by $37.2 million, or 25%, to $109.6 million, and the operating loss narrowed by $7.5 million, or 16%, to $40.6 million from $48.2 million in the comparable period in 2025. Consolidated net loss attributable to common stockholders was $64.7 million, as compared to net income of $109.3 million in 2025 reflecting the impact of the ABTC investment as well as a $14.6 million tax provision in 2026 as compared to no such provision in the 2025 comparable period.
