In addition to leadership updates, on February 6, 2026, the Company successfully completed the early repayment to Yorkville of its outstanding Secured Convertible Debentures, announced previously. As previously announced, the SEPA with Yorkville, which the Company never utilized, has also been terminated. These actions have effectively removed all debt and dilution overhang from Streamex’s capital structure, positioning the Company with a clean balance sheet and greater financial flexibility as it enters 2026 and focuses on growth initiatives and the upcoming GLDY launch.
