Strategy CEO declares his company's financial stability

In an interview with CNBC's Power Lunch, Phong Le, CEO of Strategy, discussed his company's financial resilience amid the volatility of the cryptocurrency market. He noted that Strategy is mindful of the impact of Bitcoin's price decline and investors' fear of uncertainty, but does not believe the decline of the leading cryptocurrency will negatively impact the company's operations.

Strategy's Connection to the Cryptocurrency Market

Phong Le emphasized that Strategy is closely connected to the cryptocurrency market and the Bitcoin ecosystem. BTC's high volatility, especially in the absence of clear macroeconomic reasons for its decline, as well as rumors of a possible sell-off of the company's assets, prompted management to take measures to raise capital in kind. As a result, Strategy has begun accumulating dollars, which should help the company maintain financial stability.

Capital Raising

In just eight days, the company was able to accumulate over $1.4 billion in fiat currency, demonstrating Strategy's ability to attract investment even amid a falling Bitcoin price. Phong Le noted that this allows the company to avoid the need to sell off its crypto assets, which could negatively impact their value.

Furthermore, Strategy has secured dividend coverage for nearly two calendar years, which should reassure investors and demonstrate its financial strength.

Bitcoin's Long-Term Prospects

Le also noted that over the past five years, Bitcoin has delivered an average annual return of over 45%, confirming its status as a reliable reserve asset. The 650,000 BTC held in the company's wallets provides dividend coverage for over 70 years, even under conservative Bitcoin price scenarios. The CEO suggested monitoring the BTC Credit table on the company's website, which "confirms in real time" Strategy's ability to meet its financial obligations.

Market Capitalization and Current Situation

However, it's worth noting that Strategy's (MSTR) share market capitalization fell 51% yesterday from its peak at the beginning of the second half of the year and remains below the value of its corporate Bitcoin reserves. This highlights the ongoing challenges the company faces, despite its confidence in its financial strength and ability to raise capital.

In Conclusion

Thus, Strategy continues to demonstrate its commitment to the cryptocurrency market, remaining confident in its long-term prospects and financial stability.
