Aurelion committed 10,000 XAU₮ (about $48 million) to the XAUE yield protocol and posted Q2 operating income of $8.9 million from tokenized gold gains. As of March 31, NAV was $116.4 million with NAV per share of $3.16, and the firm launched AI agent Duncan.Aure to automate XAU₮ trading.
1. Q2 Financial Results
For the quarter ended March 31, 2026, Aurelion reported operating income of $8.9 million driven by fair value gains on XAU₮ holdings as gold prices climbed. Its unaudited net asset value reached $116.4 million, equating to NAV per share of $3.16 across 36.8 million shares.
2. XAUE Yield Protocol Commitment
On April 24, Aurelion allocated 10,000 XAU₮ units (approximately $48 million) to the XAUE protocol to generate on-chain yield while maintaining exposure to the underlying gold asset. This strategic move aims to enhance yield generation on tokenized gold reserves without divesting core positions.
3. AI Agent Duncan.Aure Launch
In March, Aurelion introduced Duncan.Aure, an AI agent designed to educate investors on XAU₮ and facilitate automated trading strategies, cross-protocol DeFi execution, and digital gold allocation. The initiative underscores the company's focus on integrating artificial intelligence to optimize tokenized asset management workflows.
