  •  DJT posted its fourth consecutive quarter of positive operating cash flow at $17.9 million. 
  • Attributed the majority of losses to non-cash items, including $368.7 million in unrealized losses on digital assets and equity securities. 
  • DJT reported $0.9 million in Q1 revenue, marginally higher than $0.8 million in the same quarter last year. 

Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT) stock ended Friday 1% lower and was flat after-hours after the firm reported a significant expansion of its balance sheet for the first quarter of 2026, disclosing a strong jump in its total assets even as the company incurred substantial non-cash losses. 

The company, which operates the social media platform Truth Social, ended the quarter on March 31 with approximately $2.1 billion in financial assets, including cash, short-term investments, and digital assets. This represents a nearly threefold increase from the $759.0 million held during the same period in 2025. 

DJT marked its fourth consecutive quarter of positive cash flows, $17.9 million for the quarter ending March, and revenues of $0.9 million. However, the company posted a net loss of $405.9 million for the quarter, due to unrealized losses worth $368.7 million on digital assets and equity securities, as well as stock-based compensation. 

DJT And TAE Technologies

“Even as we work toward advancing our proposed merger with TAE Technologies as quickly as possible, we're identifying new growth opportunities…,” Interim Chief Executive Officer Kevin McGurn said. 

The Truth Social company, in an unexpected corporate pivot, has been attempting to transform into a nuclear energy company. 

In December 2025, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) announced it would merge with TAE Technologies, a leading private nuclear fusion company. As of May 2026, the deal is in its final stages. 

TMTG is considering spinning off Truth Social and its media assets into a separate company. This would leave "DJT" as a primarily energy-focused vehicle aimed at powering the AI revolution.
