Denial: The analyst to write this piece owns the strategy sharing (MSTR).
Due to the onset of this month, a growing difference —a has emerged between Bitcoin
and approach to bitcoin-hodler (MSTR). While Bitcoin climbed approximately 13%, approaching the $ 110,000 mark, MSTR shares slipped by 3%, trading around $ 372.
This performance gap has become more pronounced since mid -May and has raised questions about market sentiment to the company pioneering the Bitcoin treasury strategy for corporations. Despite playing a leading role in this movement, the stock approach has not mirrored the latest Bitcoin rally.
One major factor is the rapid increase in the number of public companies that adopt similar approaches to Bitcoin. According to the data from Bitcointreasuries.netMore than 113 public companies around the world are now holding Bitcoin on their balance sheets, which marked the rise of 11 new ones in the past 30 days.
Many appear following the strategy playbook, but the company’s market premium compresses, indicating that the advantage of early mover may be lost.
The approach of multiple to net assets (MNAV), which reflects how the market values the company associated with its Bitcoin handling, has dropped to 1.80 which is one of its lowest points last year.
This figure is calculated by dividing the value of the business (EV) by the value of the market of its bitcoin handling. EV includes MSTR’s current market cap, a changing debt, and preferred sharing (such as Strk and Strf), which mistaken the company’s latest reported cash balance.
A lower MNAV limits the ability of the approach to issue a new equity without significantly dating existing shareholders, though it remains above 1x, maintaining some headroom.
Recently the approach 4,020 BTC purchases, its smallest since May 5, also shows a significant change in funding structure. The acquisition was funded not only by the usual stock but also by preferred security – 81.7% from the standard stock, 15.9% from the STRK, and 2.4% from the STRF, according to the MSTR analyst Ben Werkman.
This diversity indicates that the company is strategically tapping alternative instruments through the offer and-mankado (ATM), perhaps to reduce shareholder reduction and optimize increasing capital to a compressed MNAV environment.
