Strategy Reports Net Leverage at Zero After $370M Bitcoin Buy

Management says a new two-way treasury policy based on cost-of-capital choices removes a creditor-driven liquidation price.

Overview

  • Between Aug. 24 and Aug. 30 the company purchased 4,603 Bitcoin for $369.7 million at an average price of $80,318, bringing holdings to 845,050 BTC.
  • Strategy reports roughly $6.7 billion in dollar assets that nearly match about $6.75 billion in convertible debt, producing a company-defined net leverage of roughly 0.0% while debt and preferred claims remain legally outstanding.
  • Earlier in 2026 the firm sold roughly 7,000 BTC near $60,000 to fund preferred dividends and obligations, then raised equity capital and sold shares at market to rebuild cash reserves.
  • The board’s June policy authorizes up to $1.25 billion of Bitcoin monetization and management says buy and sell decisions now hinge on the cost of capital rather than Bitcoin’s spot price.
  • Because Strategy is the largest corporate Bitcoin holder and its convertible notes lack typical margin-call triggers, the company says its balance-sheet moves cut the chance of forced selling but they still carry outsized effects on crypto liquidity and index treatments such as the MSCI proposal.
