On October 27, Strive fell 8.08% in Regular Trading, trading at $26.615 per share, with turnover of $145 million.
The move followed the company’s disclosure that it had signed an agreement to issue and sell up to $1 billion of 15% Series A perpetual SATS preferred stock through an at-the-market program.
According to the filing, net proceeds may be used for general corporate purposes including buying bitcoin and bitcoin-related products, working capital, income-generating assets, capital expenditures, buybacks, acquisitions, dividends, or future debt repayment. The announcement came shortly after Strive completed an upsized IPO of 7 million SATS preferred shares at $90 each, raising $630 million gross.
The financing update also arrives after Strive said it spent about $510 million last week to buy 6,182 bitcoin at an average price of $82,732, lifting total holdings to roughly 43,000 bitcoin. The rapid pace of capital raising and bitcoin accumulation appears to be the central event tied to the stock’s weakness.
