Forward expands Solana strategy with advisory board
On November 4, the Solana Treasury Company announced that it has filed its Resale Prospectus Supplement (the “Resale Prospectus Supplement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
According to the report, the filing was made in accordance with its effective registration statement on Form S-3 file (File No. 333-290312) earlier this year. The Solana treasury company report emphasized that the Resale Prospectus Supplement registers for the resale of specific shares of common stock that were previously issued in the company’s September 2025 private placement (the “PIPE”).
The company’s report revealed that the Board of Directors of Forward Industries approved a share repurchase program on November 3, 2025, in conjunction with this milestone.
The report states that the repurchase program will allow the company to buy back up to $1 billion of its outstanding common stock. According to the report, the authorization is set to expire on September 30, 2027.
On October 22, the Solana treasury company established a crypto advisory board comprising 25 individuals from the Solana and DeFi communities. The firm also formed a traditional finance industry to guide its Solana-focused corporate treasury.
According to the Solana treasury company, the crypto advisory board comprises Amir Haleem, founder of Helium; Armani Ferrante, CEO of Backpack; Cindy Leow, co-founder of Drift Labs; Robert Leshner, CEO of Superstate; and Tarun Chitra, founder of Gauntlet.
Forward also noted that Michael Marcantonio and Harry Austin, executives of Galaxy Digital, also joined the crypto advisory board.
“Establishing a dedicated Crypto Advisory Board is an important milestone as Forward executes on its strategy to bring the value of the Solana ecosystem to investors. The caliber of leaders joining reflects growing conviction in Solana within global capital markets.”
–Chairman Kyle Samani, Chairman at Forward Industries, Inc.
The establishment of the crypto advisory board was made only a few weeks after Forward filed a $4 billion at-the-market share offering to finance further accumulation. The Solana treasury company spent roughly $1.6 billion purchasing 6.8 million $SOL.
