Compared to Q1 2026, Eric Trump’s American Bitcoin Corp. reported a strong Q1 2026. Despite lower Bitcoin [BTC] prices throughout the quarter, this hike was fueled by expansion in both its mining and treasury operations.
According to a press release, in just three months, the company’s strategic reserve of Bitcoin increased by 981 BTC or 14%, from roughly 7,021 BTC on 31st March to 8,002 BTC on 30th June 2026.
Simultaneously, the company’s outstanding shares only increased by about 3%, which allowed it to increase its Satoshis per share. The latter is a measure of the amount of Bitcoin backing each share, from 9,943 sats to 10,989 sats.
Simply put, even though there was only a slight share dilution, shareholders ended the quarter with a greater exposure to Bitcoin per share.
The journey from Q1 2026 to Q2 2026
As expected, Eric Trump expressed gratitude for this expansion and said,
A little over a year ago, American Bitcoin was just an idea.
Although revenue per Bitcoin mined dropped by 5% to $71,900 due to a 12% drop in the price of Bitcoin, the increase helped boost mining revenue to $67 million. This hinted at an 8% increase from $62.1 million.
In fact, despite the weaker market, the business kept a gross margin of almost 50%.
Remarking on the same, Mike Ho, CEO of American Bitcoin, said,
Despite Bitcoin headwinds in Q2, American Bitcoin said it remained focused on execution, delivering a record 932 BTC mined while growing its strategic reserve to more than 8,000 BTC.”
However, due to rising energy prices, its mining costs have remained almost constant at $36,500 per Bitcoin, up marginally from $36,200. Additionally, the company added 3.05 EH/s of capacity to Hut 8’s Drumheller site by energizing 11,298 next-generation ASIC miners.
By the end of the quarter, it had 89,242 miners with a total capacity of 28.1 EH/s. Of the same, 58,999 miners were in operation while producing 25 EH/s at an average efficiency of 14.1 J/TH.
Not everything is as sunny as it seems
And yet, despite everything, American Bitcoin’s stock was down 7.38% in the last 24 hours alone. In fact, it has fallen by over 80% this year.
According to a recent Bloomberg report, Eric Trump’s American Bitcoin Corp. has lost about $600 million in value thanks to the company’s recent market performance.
