Strive buys 2,500 Bitcoin for $185 million, holdings top 19,000 BTC

Despite a 17% year-to-date rally, the stock remains deeply in the red over the past year.

Strive on Tuesday announced the purchase of 2,500 additional Bitcoin for approximately $185 million, bringing its total holdings to 19,000 BTC. The company acquired Bitcoin between May 23 and June 1 at an average cost of $74,092 per coin.

The purchase represents the latest expansion of Strive’s Bitcoin treasury strategy. Following the acquisition, the company reports a quarter-to-date Bitcoin yield of 23% and a year-to-date Bitcoin yield of 36.7%, along with an amplification ratio of 57%.

Strive, now ranking the seventh-largest corporate holder of BTC, also reported growth in cash and cash equivalents, which rose by $44 million to over $137 million as of June 1.

In addition, Strive updated investors on its capital structure. Outstanding Class A common shares increased to approximately 69million shares, while SATA preferred shares rose to more than 7.5 million. Holdings of Strategy’s STRC preferred stock remained largely unchanged at approximately $49.5 million.

The company continues to pursue a treasury strategy centered on accumulating Bitcoin while using equity and preferred stock financing to support growth and capital allocation initiatives.

Shares of Strive slipped approximately 4.5% before the opening bell today, according to Yahoo Finance. The stock has gained about 17% this year, though it continues to post steep losses compared with its level a year ago.
