- AVAX One Technology Ltd disclosed in an October 7, 2026 SEC filing that it eliminated $14.9 million in total debt during the third quarter of 2026
- The company converted $7.1 million of convertible debentures to common shares and repaid $7.4 million of debt in cash, while redeeming $0.4 million more for common shares
- AVAX One also repurchased 333,500 shares, adjusted for its prior reverse stock split, as part of an ongoing buyback program
AVAX One Technology Ltd, a Nasdaq-listed company built around an Avalanche-focused balance sheet strategy, said in a press release filed with the SEC on October 7, 2026 that it eliminated $14.9 million in total debt during the third quarter, a significant reduction in the company’s balance sheet leverage.
The debt reduction came through several channels: $7.1 million of convertible debentures were converted into common shares, $7.4 million was repaid directly in cash, and an additional $0.4 million was redeemed for common shares rather than cash. Those moves brought AVAX One’s remaining convertible debt down to roughly $970,000 as of September 30, 2026, a steep drop from earlier in the year and a shift the company framed as strengthening its financial footing heading into the fourth quarter.
Alongside the debt paydown, AVAX One disclosed that it repurchased 333,500 shares during the quarter, figures the company presented on an adjusted basis reflecting its prior reverse stock split. The buybacks left the company with approximately 9.99 billion common shares outstanding, up from roughly 7.36 billion shares outstanding as of June 30, 2026, reflecting the net effect of debt-to-equity conversions alongside the repurchase activity.
Pete Wylie, AVAX One’s interim CEO and COO, said in the release that “Q3 marked another period of strong progress for AVAX One, highlighted by a significant reduction in our outstanding convertible debt,” adding that the company believes it is “well positioned to execute on our growth and profitability initiatives” going forward. The company did not disclose a change in its underlying AVAX token holdings alongside the debt and share figures in this particular release, keeping the update focused squarely on balance sheet management.
AVAX One is among a group of publicly traded companies that have built treasury strategies around holding and staking Avalanche’s AVAX token rather than bitcoin or ether, a niche that has drawn both institutional attention and skepticism depending on how aggressively individual companies have used debt and dilution to fund their token accumulation. The quarter’s debt reduction suggests AVAX One is prioritizing balance sheet discipline even as it continues to build out its Avalanche-linked strategy, a contrast to some peer treasury companies that have instead prioritized continued token accumulation over near-term deleveraging.
