The company tracks treasury performance through proprietary measures. Its BTC Yield, which calculates Bitcoin per share on a fully diluted basis, reached 30.8% last quarter. BTC Gain, reflecting net additions to its reserves excluding dilution effects, stood at 4,112 BTC, while BTC Yen Gain, the yen-denominated value of those gains, totaled ¥67.4 billion ($455 million).
These metrics are intended to demonstrate shareholder value growth beyond simple market price fluctuations, underscoring Bitcoin’s role as a core treasury asset.
Capital Maneuvers and Strategic Outlook
Metaplanet has relied heavily on capital market activity to finance its Bitcoin purchases. In recent months, it redeemed more than ¥205 billion in corporate bonds, offset by multiple tranches of new share issuance. The company has framed this approach as a deliberate strategy to reallocate capital from traditional debt instruments into Bitcoin.
Meanwhile, the organization recently strengthened its Bitcoin treasury strategy with the acquisition of an additional 103 BTC, valued at ¥1.736 billion. The purchase was made at an average price of ¥16.85 million per Bitcoin, raising the company’s total holdings to 18,991 BTC.
