Metaplanet continues to report key performance indicators that measure shareholder value in Bitcoin terms. Between July 1 and August 25, 2025, the company achieved a Bitcoin Yield of 29.1%, following previous quarterly yields of 41.7%, 309.8%, 95.6%, and 129.4%. These metrics track the ratio of Bitcoin holdings to fully diluted shares outstanding, designed to highlight accretion for investors despite ongoing capital market activities.
The firm’s reporting shows that Bitcoin per fully diluted share increased from 0.000878 BTC in September 2024 to 0.0208 BTC as of August 25, 2025. Over the same period, quarterly BTC gains surged, with the most recent quarter adding 3,887 BTC in yield-driven growth, translating to ¥65.5 billion at reference prices.
To support its treasury expansion, Metaplanet has actively utilized bond redemptions and stock acquisition rights. In July, it executed early redemptions of over ¥12 billion from its 19th Series bonds, financed through proceeds from multiple tranches of exercised stock acquisition rights throughout July and August.
In addition to its growing Bitcoin position, Metaplanet announced plans to amend its Articles of Incorporation and file a shelf registration for the potential issuance of Class A and Class B Perpetual Preferred Shares. These proposals, approved by the board, will be presented at an Extraordinary General Meeting scheduled for September 1, 2025.
