Metaplanet Unveils $150M Bitcoin-Linked Capital Plan as It Reshapes Share Structure

Metaplanet Inc. has detailed a multi-layered financing plan that links its capital structure more directly to Bitcoin accumulation, outlining a set of preferred share issuances, stock acquisition right adjustments, and corporate governance changes.

The company stated that the strategy is intended to secure long-term funding capacity while maintaining existing shareholder positions, following a series of formal notices submitted ahead of a shareholder vote scheduled for December.

The new describe several resolutions, including the issuance of Class B Preferred Shares through a third-party allotment. The structure is designed to limit dilution for common shareholders by distributing the new shares primarily to selected foreign investors.

According to disclosures, dividends attached to the Class B Preferred Shares will be paid quarterly, in March, June, September, and December, and are linked to Japan’s reference interest rate, JPY TONA, plus a fixed margin that provides a defined yield for participating institutions.

In parallel, announced the acquisition and cancellation of multiple existing stock acquisition rights from earlier rounds. The company confirmed it will retire the 28th, 29th, and 32nd series of stock acquisition rights as part of its restructuring. Executives said the adjustments aim to stabilize the capital framework and align long-term interests with common shareholders.

A separate notice outlined preparations for an Extraordinary General Meeting, which will include proposed amendments to the Articles of Incorporation, a reduction of capital stock and capital reserves, and authorization for the new Class B share issuance.

Metaplanet stated that most of the expected proceeds, valued at approximately $150 million across the revamped structure, will be directed toward continued Bitcoin accumulation. Management described constant Bitcoin purchasing as a central feature of its treasury model, particularly during periods of market weakness. The company reiterated that its approach is built on maintaining long-term reserves through consistent buying, regardless of short-term price trends.
