Phoenix Group announces Q2 2025 results: Robust mining, $150mln+ Crypto Treasury formalized, AI expansion
Q2 2025 Highlights:
Strategic Treasury Launch: Became the first-ever ADX-listed company to formalize a digital asset treasury, valued at over $150 million in Bitcoin and Solana.
Operational Excellence: $29 million revenue; mined 336 BTC in Q2 with 31% self-mining gross margin and 14% energy cost reduction.
Market Performance: Share price surged over 72% from April to June, with momentum continuing to produce 110% gains from the start of April to date.
Future Growth Acceleration: Actively expanding its AI/HPC vertical to build 1 Gigawatt of hybrid infrastructure by 2027.
Operationally, the company reported $29 million in revenue and mined a total of 336 BTC across its global operations in Q2, including 214 BTC attributed to self-mining. Across the first half of 2025, the Group has mined a cumulative total of 689 BTC.
Self-mining Bitcoin revenue surged 219% over two years, rising from $13M in H1 2023 to $41.7M in H1 2025. The company continues to mine profitably, reporting a 31% gross margin on self-mining and a 14% reduction in energy costs, reinforcing its position as one of the most efficient Bitcoin miners globally.
A sturdy balance sheet supports the company's market performance. Unlike debt-heavy rivals, Phoenix is almost debt-free at $16 million, enabling pursuits like its treasury and AI expansion.
In a major strategic milestone, Phoenix announced the official rollout of its digital asset treasury strategy, making it the first ADX-listed company to do so. The Group's active treasury, valued at over $150 million, mainly consists of Bitcoin and Solana, with 514 BTC and more than 630,000 SOL held as part of its long-term reserve.
'Phoenix has always been more than just a mining company. We're a conviction-led digital infrastructure group,' said Munaf Ali, CEO and Co-Founder of Phoenix Group. 'Holding Bitcoin and other strategic digital assets isn't just about exposure. It's about alignment. We believe in the long-term value these networks represent, and our treasury strategy reflects that belief'.
Additionally, the quarter saw Phoenix's share price rise by over 72% from April to June, placing it among the top five most traded and best-performing stocks on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange. The momentum has continued into Q3, with gains of 110% to date.
The Company also reported a non-cash loss of $29 million, largely due to revaluations in its digital asset portfolio and a one-time depreciation adjustment under revised accounting standards. With recent price recoveries in key holdings such as Solana, Phoenix anticipates a partial rebound in asset valuations in Q3 and beyond.
AI & HPC Outlook
Looking ahead, Phoenix is accelerating the buildout of its AI and HPC vertical. A feasibility study is currently underway to repurpose part of its U.S. infrastructure into a dedicated multi-use compute facility. In parallel, the Company is actively evaluating several strategic locations globally to identify markets where infrastructure upgrades or redeployments could rapidly expand its AI and HPC footprint.
'We are building toward 1 gigawatt of hybrid infrastructure by 2027, and we see a clear path to get there,' added Ali. 'As we move forward, we see strategic opportunities to consolidate underutilized infrastructure globally. Many smaller operators are stuck with land and power they can't convert into meaningful compute. Phoenix's execution speed and platform model give us a distinct edge to acquire and upgrade these assets for AI ahead of the broader market'.
As it enters its next phase of growth, Phoenix Group is focused on delivering capital-efficient expansion, scaling its AI/HPC infrastructure, and further developing its digital asset treasury, all while maintaining its leadership as the largest Bitcoin miner in the MENA region and a global leader in the industry.

Oman's OQ Group secures first-ever S&P ‘BBB-' rating
MUSCAT: International ratings agency S&P Global Ratings has assigned a 'BBB-' global scale issuer credit rating and a 'gcAA-' Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) regional scale rating to OQ SAOC, the wholly government-owned integrated energy group operating under the umbrella of Oman Investment Authority (OIA). This marks the first time OQ Group has received a public rating from S&P. Commenting on the announcement in a post on Thursday, July 31, 2025, the Group stated that the rating affirms 'OQ's position as a national energy leader committed to long-term resilience and value creation.' 'The assessment highlights OQ's strong liquidity position, disciplined capital structure, and key role in supporting Oman's economic diversification and energy transition under Vision 2040,' the company added. S&P said its assessment of OQ's business risk profile reflects its vertically integrated operations across the hydrocarbon value chain, with efforts to diversify and enhance its asset base. In 2024, upstream accounted for 60% of reported EBITDA, downstream 37%, and other segments—including alternative energy, marketing, manufacturing, and corporate functions—3%. The agency noted that most of OQ's assets are located within Oman (rated BBB-/Stable/A-3), benefiting from the country's robust energy infrastructure. This provides feedstock security, particularly for its refining and petrochemical operations. A well-established trading arm supports both upstream and downstream segments by off-taking production and sourcing feedstock, enhancing operational flexibility. OQ's downstream capacity was significantly boosted following the final completion of the 230,000-barrel-per-day Duqm (OQ8) refinery in April 2025. Developed as a 50:50 joint venture with Kuwait Petroleum (Europe), the refinery represents a major strategic milestone for the group. S&P further highlighted OQ's government-backed mandate to promote economic diversification and investment in Oman. Through its subsidiary, OQ Alternative Energy, the company is investing in renewable energy projects, many of which are expected to be developed in partnership with private players, with OQ retaining up to 50% ownership. Final investment decisions on several of these initiatives are expected in 2025 and 2026. Since 2021, OQ has significantly improved its balance sheet, reducing gross debt by over 45%—from RO 5.3 billion to RO 2.9 billion by end-2024. This deleveraging, supported by strong operating cash flows and nearly RO 2 billion in IPO and divestment proceeds over 2022–2024, underpins its robust credit profile, even amid expectations of a weaker market in 2025–2026. S&P expects funds from operations (FFO) to debt to remain solid at 50%–53% in 2025 and 54%–57% in 2026. Despite planned capital expenditure of RO 700–800 million annually in 2025 and 2026, including investments in maintenance and alternative energy projects, OQ is projected to generate positive free operating cash flow (FOCF) of RO 125–175 million in 2025 and RO 150–200 million in 2026. This is supported by its strong liquidity, including RO 3 billion in cash and cash equivalents, largely placed in interest-bearing short-term deposits, the agency noted. OQ maintains a conservative financial policy, targeting net debt to EBITDA of 2.0x–2.5x and keeping Funds from Operations (FFO) to debt above 55%. Annual dividends are set at RO 289 million, with additional payouts dependent on divestment proceeds. Distributions from 2026 onward are expected to remain balanced with performance, leverage, and investment priorities, S&P added. 2025 © All right reserved for Oman Establishment for Press, Publication and Advertising (OEPPA) Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc.

KNPC to build 16 fuel stations in Kuwait
KUWAIT CITY: Kuwait National Petroleum Company (KNPC) has obtained approval to build 16 fuel stations this year, say sources from the oil sector. Sources disclosed that the stations will be located in new residential cities, while some densely populated residential areas will have additional fuel stations. Sources said the company aims to increase its sales of all types of gasoline to at least seven million liters by 2030, considering that its sales exceeded 5.105 million liters of gasoline by the end of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025; compared to 5.016 million liters in the previous year and around 4.891 million liters in 2023. Sources confirmed that the company is targeting increased revenues from car wash stations, whose revenues declined in fiscal 2024/2025 to KD393,300 compared to KD432,000 in the previous fiscal year. Sources indicated that KNPC is planning to develop its car wash stations to achieve the targeted returns. Sources stated that KNPC will establish new fuel stations in line with environmental cleanliness and international requirements, particularly the strategy of Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) to achieve carbon neutrality. Sources added the company intends to implement many initiatives related to its projects and refineries in order to reduce carbon emissions. Moreover, sources confirmed that the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of KNPC Wadha Al-Khatib ensured that around 120 Kuwaiti employees under contractor contracts were treated fairly as their salaries, which exceeded the top of the grade scale, were not affected. Sources said these employees remain entitled to promotions and job placements under the regulations. Sources added that the Kuwaitis employed at Al-Dar Company, which implements service projects for KNPC, will soon receive their end-of-service benefits. Sources also stated that the executive management of KNPC prioritizes nationals, such that it periodically announces job advertisements to increase the percentage of nationals working in the company to compensate for the decline in 2025. They revealed that in the first quarter of this year, the number of Kuwaiti workers reached 5,864; compared to about 6,007 during the same period in 2024. The percentage of national workers in KNPC stands at 92.4 percent, which, sources stressed, is a good percentage. They went on to say that Al-Khatib's recent instructions to the leadership of the company center on the need to increase the national human capital and develop their functional capabilities. They added that KNPC organized many training courses for the national workforce in cooperation with local and international institutions.
