Strategy™ (Nasdaq: MSTR; STRK) today announced that, subject to
market and other conditions, it intends to offer, in a public
offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities Act”), 5,000,000 shares of Strategy’s Series A
Perpetual Strife Preferred Stock (the “perpetual strife preferred
stock”).
Strategy intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for
general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of bitcoin
and for working capital.
The perpetual strife preferred stock will accumulate cumulative
dividends at a fixed rate of 10.00% per annum on the stated amount.
Regular dividends on the perpetual strife preferred stock will be
payable when, as and if declared by Strategy’s board of directors,
out of funds legally available for their payment, quarterly in
arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each
year, beginning on June 30, 2025. Declared regular dividends on the
perpetual strife preferred stock will be payable solely in cash. In
the event that any accumulated regular dividend on the perpetual
strife preferred stock is not paid on the applicable regular
dividend payment date, then additional regular dividends
(“compounded dividends”) will accumulate on the amount of such
unpaid regular dividend, compounded quarterly. The compounded
dividend rate applicable to any unpaid regular dividend that was
due on a regular dividend payment date will initially be a rate per
annum equal to 10% plus 100 basis points; provided, however, that,
until such regular dividend, together with compounded dividends
thereon, is paid in full, such compounded dividend rate will
increase by 100 basis points per annum for each subsequent regular
dividend period, up to a maximum dividend rate of 18% per
annum.
Strategy will have the right, at its election, to redeem all,
but not less than all, of the perpetual strife preferred stock, at
any time, for cash if the total number of shares of perpetual
strife preferred stock then outstanding is less than 25% of the
total number of shares of the perpetual strife preferred stock
originally issued in the offering and any future offerings, taken
together. In addition, Strategy will have the right to redeem all,
but not less than all, of the perpetual strife preferred stock if
certain tax events occur. The redemption price for any perpetual
strife preferred stock to be redeemed will be a cash amount equal
to the liquidation preference of the perpetual strife preferred
stock to be redeemed as of the business day before the date on
which Strategy sends the related redemption notice, plus
accumulated and unpaid regular dividends to, but excluding, the
redemption date.
If an event that constitutes a “fundamental change” under the
certificate of designations governing the perpetual strife
preferred stock occurs, then holders of the perpetual strife
preferred stock will have the right to require Strategy to
repurchase some or all of their shares of perpetual strife
preferred stock at a cash repurchase price equal to the stated
amount of the perpetual strife preferred stock to be repurchased,
plus accumulated and unpaid regular dividends, if any, to, but
excluding the fundamental change repurchase date.
The liquidation preference of the perpetual strife preferred
stock shall initially be $100 per share (the “stated amount”).
Effective immediately after the close of business on each business
day after the initial issue date (and, if applicable, during the
course of a business day on which any sale transaction to be
settled by the issuance of perpetual strife preferred stock is
executed, from the exact time of first such sale transaction during
such business day until the close of business of such business
day), the liquidation preference per share will be adjusted to be
the greatest of (i) the stated amount; (ii) in the case of any
business day with respect to which we have, on such business day or
any business day during the ten trading day period preceding such
business day, executed any sale transaction to be settled by the
issuance of perpetual strife preferred stock, an amount equal to
the last reported sale price per share of perpetual strife
preferred stock on the trading day immediately before such business
day; and (iii) the arithmetic average of the last reported sale
prices per share of perpetual strife preferred stock for each
trading day of the ten consecutive trading days (or, if applicable,
the lesser number of trading days as have elapsed during the period
from, and including, the initial issue date to, but excluding, such
business day) immediately preceding such business day.
