Strategy Pauses Bitcoin Accumulation to Repurchase Preferred Stock at Discount
Strategy Inc., the world's largest corporate Bitcoin holder, has paused its latest Bitcoin accumulation and redirected $176.3 million toward repurchasing its STRC preferred stock.
The company's decision to allocate funds to STRC buybacks comes as the preferred stock trades at lower prices than its par value of $100.
Strategy's move is seen as a demonstration of its growing flexibility in allocating funds among Bitcoin, preferred stock, common stock, and cash.
The company's board has also increased the authorized size of its Digital Credit Securities Repurchase Program from $1 billion to $2 billion.
