Saylor’s Strategy Makes First Bitcoin Purchase Since August
Michael Saylor's company, Strategy Inc., has made its first Bitcoin purchase in three weeks, acquiring $75.7 million worth of the cryptocurrency as part of efforts to rebuild investor confidence and reshape its balance sheet. The firm also repurchased $174 million of its preferred shares using cash from these transactions. The move comes amid improved financing conditions for Strategy Inc., with Bitcoin's recent rebound to an eight-month high near $85,000 helping lift the company’s stock price and market capitalization closer to the value of its Bitcoin holdings. The firm currently holds approximately $71 billion in Bitcoin. Saylor has also adjusted parts of his funding strategy due to concerns over shareholder dilution during a prolonged downturn in digital assets. Strategy Inc.'s shares have dropped 55% over the past year, but recent actions signal an attempt to stabilize and strengthen its financial position.
