MicroStrategy Raises $563M via Preferred Stock for Bitcoin

by January 31, 2025
written by January 31, 2025

Introduction

MicroStrategy, a leading business intelligence firm, has successfully raised $563 million through its Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock offering (STRK). The company initially targeted $250 million, but strong demand led to a larger offering.

MicroStrategy plans to use the funds to buy more Bitcoin and support corporate operations. This move reinforces the company’s long-term commitment to cryptocurrency.

Why Did MicroStrategy Issue Preferred Stock?

This fundraising method allows MicroStrategy to raise capital without diluting common shareholders. The 7.3 million shares sold for $80 each, giving investors a 10% annual dividend yield, which was higher than the initial 8% estimate.

Preferred stock is different from regular shares. It offers fixed dividends and gives priority over common stocks in financial payouts. As a result, it attracts investors who want crypto exposure but with less volatility.

How Does This Fit MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin Strategy?

Under the leadership of Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy has become one of the biggest corporate Bitcoin holders. The company currently owns 190,000 BTC and continues to expand its holdings.

Saylor believes that Bitcoin is “digital gold” and serves as a better store of value than traditional assets. This latest stock sale follows previous funding rounds aimed at increasing Bitcoin reserves.

Market Reaction & Future Outlook

Stock Performance: MicroStrategy’s stock saw a slight increase, showing investor confidence in its Bitcoin strategy.
Crypto Market Impact: Bitcoin prices remained stable, but large purchases like this can support long-term growth.

This offering is set to close on February 5, 2025, with Barclays and Moelis & Company as underwriters.

What’s Next for MicroStrategy?

With an additional $563 million, MicroStrategy will expand its Bitcoin portfolio. Investors are closely watching how Bitcoin’s price changes will affect the company’s financial future.

MicroStrategy is a key player in corporate crypto investments. Whether this strategy pays off depends on Bitcoin’s long-term value.
