Michael Saylor's tactic unveils plan for $250 million Initial Public Offering (IPO) of STRD shares to enhance Bitcoin acquisitions.
🔥 Michael Saylor's Strategy Unveils Monster Bitcoin Purchase and Perpetual Preferred Stock Offering
Michael Saylor's Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has taken the crypto world by storm with a pair of eye-catching moves - a perpetual preferred stock offering and a jaw-dropping Bitcoin purchase.
It’s all part of Saylor's master plan to raise funds for general corporate purposes, with a emphasis on acquiring more Bitcoin and bolstering the company’s coffers. Barclays, Morgan Stanley, Moelis & Company, and TD Securities will take the reins in leading this perky preferred stock offering. The Benchmark Company, AmeriVet Securities, Bancroft Capital, BTIG, and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods will be co-managers in this game-changing move.
✨ Breaking Down the Plan
Strategy plans to flood the market with 2.5 million shares of its 10% Series A perpetual preferred stock (STRD), asking a cool $100 a pop. This will rake in a hefty $250 million, to be exact. Don't forget that the proceeds come with a 10% annual dividend, shelled out quarterly!
This preferred stock is directed towards institutional and chosen non-institutional investors. Why? Because Strategy aims to diversify its capital stack and shower its investors with a high-yield, eternal preferred stock option, all while keeping their Bitcoin acquisition strategy on the front burner.
📈 Nibbling on Bitcoin
You'd better watch out, Bitcoin! Strategy has its eyes on you and its wallets wide open. The funds from the offering will nourish its insatiable appetite for the cryptocurrency, further expanding its impressive Bitcoin stash. How impressive? Well, with this latest $75.1 million purchase, it now owns a whopping 580,955 BTC, currently valued north of $61 billion. Thanks to Saylor’s shrewd moves, the firm has racked up unrealized gains of over $20.2 billion, putting them among the most successful corporate Bitcoin investors.
📉 MSTR's Dance on Wall Street
Lastly, let's not forget about Strategy's stock performance. The MSTR stock hit a high note, ending the day up 0.87% at $372.27, in a hasty recovery of the US stock market. And that's not all - MSTR shares are sailing upwards, with a 24% gain since the ringing of the new year.
