Index Coop - NOV 2020 - FEB 2021 Financial Report

I am excited to present the very first Index Coop Financial Report. Over time each subsequent report is going to capture our progress on the path to $1B AUM and beyond.

DPI is a fantastic product and the income it generates is a real value creator for Index Coop.

As we continue to dominate the index fund management, the future for Index Coop could not be brighter. Index Coop is the market leader within the ethereum community and will continue to be so for time to come.

Many thanks goes out to all those within the community. In such a short amount of time, we have achieved so much together and what a fantastic journey it will continue to be.

Index Coop - June 2021 Financial Report

I am pleased to present Index Coop’s June 2021 Financial Report. As June marks the end of Q3, Index Coop’s first quarterly report will be published in later in the month. :owl:

Index Coop continues to see strong month on month revenue growth with ETH2x-FLI revenue surpassing DPI’s contributions to be the main revenue earner during the month of May.

Key Takeaway:

  • Index Coop’s transition towards profitability has began with a significant improvement in overall capital efficiency.
  • A 32% reduction in MoM Gross Profit was more than offset by a 50% reduction in Liquidity Mining spending.
  • Total units across all products increased by 12% MoM with ETH2x-FLI growing at 19% MoM, MVI growing at 12% MoM and DPI growing at 3% MoM.
  • Liquidity Mining continues to be Index Coop’s largest cost at $0.59M during June with $0.49M being spent on supporting DPI liquidity on Uniswap V2.
  • Index Coop made a loss of $0.5M during June which is a significant improvement on the $1.2M loss during May and heavily influenced by Liquidity Mining incentives.

Many thanks goes out to all those within the community who helped pull this together.

I can see why product launches are such a high priority, we have a 90% revenue concentration from two products. Does the finance nest view this as a risk? With experience in a traditional business setting, if we had a 90% customer concentration we would view that as a huge problem. Does product concentration apply in the same manner, or are there other metrics that make this situation different?

Hi @asira,

Yes, Finance Nest does consider the concentration of revenue a risk. Our revenue dips when the ETH prices dips, so if market conditions turn, it is fair to assume revenue will turn as well. This risk is further compound with protocol liquidity as this centres around high vol assets. We are very much running a barbel strategy, lots of risk on assets and then very risk off assets to try balance it out.

The work @ChrisG, @afromac and @allen are doing with launching the first inverse FLI products will help reduce this risk profile. See forum post: IIP-119: Launch iMATIC, iETH, BTC2X, iBTC FLIs on Polygon. We can definitely do with a broader range of product offering and a more evenly distributed revenue base. We are fortunate to have two really strong products and to be growing out the capability to have many more.

Index Coop - January 2022 Financial Report

Finance Nest is pleased to share the Index Coop’s January 2022 one-pager Financial Report.

At the end of January 2022, Index Coop held $29.6M, of which approximately 67% are INDEX tokens.

Summary

January was a tough month where streaming fee revenue and TVL shrunk by ~ 50%. Operational expenses continue to be the most significant influence on overall profitability. However, with multiple product launches and the overall crypto market showing signs of stabilization, our monthly revenue and profitability are expected to reverse the MoM downtrend of the last couple of months and come back strong.
