Orion Digital reports Q1 revenue C$16.9M vs. C$17.3M last year

David Feller, Founder & CEO “We recently released the new Intelligent Investing app – for us, this is the moment several years of platform building become operational. The release brings managed and self-directed investing into the same platform and lays the foundation for what we believe can be the most effective capital allocation system designed for long-term compounding. We view this release not as the completion of the product vision but as the transition from concept to a live operational system serving real users. “Over the past two decades, much of the retail investment industry has been positioned around themes of democratization, access, and empowerment. The reality of the products has gone in a different direction. Prediction markets sit alongside retirement accounts. Trading interfaces add leverage and frictionless speculation. User experiences are designed for engagement rather than outcome. The product underneath has been hollowed out, and engagement is the only inventory left. “Intelligent Investing is built around a different thesis. Long-term wealth is created through disciplined capital allocation, not through the frequency of decisions. AI is compressing the information edge that justified the trading-platform business model for two decades, and as that edge approaches zero, the distinction between platforms designed for compounding and platforms designed for engagement becomes the entire game. With this release now live, we are positioned to scale Intelligent Investing and we expect to increase marketing investment in the second half of the year. Phase 2 of the platform rollout is expected to be completed in line with our previously communicated first-half 2026 timeline. We are building for what comes next.”
