Such statements include, but are not limited to, the intended use of proceeds from the registered direct offering, the execution of the Company’s treasury strategy and other statements that are not historical facts, including statements which may be accompanied by the words “intends,” “may,” “will,” “plans,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “predicts,” “estimates,” “aims,” “believes,” “hopes,” “potential” or similar words. Actual results could differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements due to certain factors, including without limitation, the Company’s expectation of exceeding $2 billion in ETH treasury value, the Company’s ability to successfully purchase ETH with the proceeds from the offering, the Company’s ability to achieve profitable operations, fluctuations in the market price of ETH that will impact the Company’s accounting and financial reporting (see accounting rules discussed below), government regulation of cryptocurrencies and online betting, changes in securities laws or regulations, customer acceptance of new products and services, the demand for its products and its customers’ economic condition, the impact of competitive products and pricing, the lengthy sales cycle, proprietary rights of the Company, changes in applicable laws or regulations, and its competitors, general economic conditions and other risk factors detailed in the Company’s annual report and other filings with the SEC. Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, entities are generally required to measure certain crypto assets at fair value, with changes reflected in net income each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of crypto assets could result in significant fluctuations to the balance sheet and income statement results. Additionally, for certain types of crypto assets, the Company may be required to record associated impairment charges reflected in net income as a result of a decrease in the market price of ETH below the cost value at which the Company’s ETH are carried on its balance sheet. Any forward-looking statements contained in this press release speak only as of the date hereof, and the Company does not undertake any responsibility to update the forward-looking statements in this press release.

MINNEAPOLIS, MN, Aug. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SharpLink Gaming, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBET) (“SharpLink” or the “Company”), one of the world’s largest corporate holders of Ether (“ETH”) and prominent industry advocate of Ethereum adoption, today issued its weekly update on the Company’s ETH purchases for the period Monday, July 28, 2025 through Sunday, August 3, 2025; and capital raised through its At-the-Market (“ATM”) facility during the week Monday, July 28 through Friday, August 1, 2025. 

Key Highlights for the Week Ending August 3, 2025

• Purchased 83,561 ETH.
• $264.5 million in net proceeds were raised through the ATM facility this week.
• Average ETH purchase price for the week was $3,634.
• Total ETH holdings increased to 521,939, up 19% from the prior week’s total of 438,190 ETH.
• Total staking rewards rose to 929 ETH since launch of treasury strategy on June 2, 2025.
• ETH Concentration* rose to 3.66 from 3.40 week over week, up 83% since launch of treasury strategy on June 2, 2025.

“SharpLink remains deeply committed to its mission of creating enduring shareholder value by building the largest and most trusted ETH treasury company. To accelerate our strategy, we are diligently evaluating a range of capital formation opportunities, including debt, equity and equity-linked offerings designed to increase our ETH holdings and grow ETH Concentration. Our efforts are designed to optimize capital efficiency and reinforce our long-term alignment with Ethereum’s role as the foundational infrastructure of decentralized finance,” stated Joseph Chalom, Co-CEO of SharpLink.

Weekly ETH and Capital Summary

* To enhance transparency into the Company’s yield performance, SharpLink introduced a new reporting metric called “ETH Concentration.” This metric is calculated by dividing the number of ETH SharpLink holds by each 1,000 assumed diluted shares issued and outstanding (“Assumed Diluted Shares Outstanding”). Assumed Diluted Shares Outstanding represents the sum of (i) SharpLink’s actual shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the end of each reporting period, inclusive of disclosed ATM sales, plus (ii) the additional shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise or settlement of all outstanding warrants, pre-funded warrants, stock option awards, and restricted stock units. Notably, Assumed Diluted Shares Outstanding is not calculated using the treasury stock method. It does not account for equity award vesting conditions, stock option exercise prices, or contractual restrictions limiting the convertibility of debt instruments. Additionally, it excludes any assumed share repurchases that would ordinarily be considered under the treasury stock method.
