Matthew Galinko’s rating is based on a combination of factors that highlight both the challenges and opportunities for DeFi Technologies. Despite the company’s adjusted revenue and EPS falling below expectations in the third quarter of 2025, there were positive developments such as an increase in Assets Under Management (AUM) and the expansion of Exchange Traded Products (ETPs). These factors indicate a potential for growth, especially with the company’s plans to launch new ETP strategies and expand geographically.
Furthermore, the company’s financial position remains strong with significant cash reserves and cryptocurrency holdings. Although the revenue from DeFi Alpha trading was lower than anticipated, the company is poised to benefit from long-term growth drivers such as expanding liquidity provision and advisory services. The management’s conservative approach to guidance, coupled with the strategic leadership transition, suggests a focus on sustainable growth. These elements collectively support the Buy rating, despite the lowered price target reflecting current market conditions.
According to TipRanks, Galinko is a 5-star analyst with an average return of 15.3% and a 38.19% success rate. Galinko covers the Technology sector, focusing on stocks such as DeFi Technologies, SEALSQ Corp, and Strategy.
In another report released on November 17, Northland Securities also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a C$2.50 price target.
