Stock Performance Rises as Funding and Acquisition Plans Advance

Metaplanet has made bold steps to support its Bitcoin strategy. The company raised JPY 4 billion through 0% unsecured bonds. These funds will be used for Bitcoin purchases in 2026 and 2027. In addition, the company has allocated $700 million toward acquiring 21,000 BTC by the end of 2026.

To strengthen its financial position, Metaplanet launched its “21M Plan.” The initiative secured $20 million in equity capital within its first two trading days. The company hopes to increase its BTC reserves through this plan.

Metaplanet’s stock price has responded in a positive trajectory to its Bitcoin-focused strategy. In early 2025, the stock surged 75.94%, reaching an all-time high of 7,000 JPY. After a partial retracement, the stock climbed 2.78% today to 6,290 JPY. The firm also became the largest component in the CoinShares Blockchain Global Equity Index. It now holds a 6.27% weighting in the index.

To further enhance financial flexibility, Metaplanet adjusted the exercise price of its stock acquisition rights. The price was modified based on market conditions. The company exercised 5,000 rights between February 18 and 19, representing 11.9% of the total. This resulted in 500,000 new shares being issued. There are still 37,000 unexercised rights remaining.

Metaplanet Announces Stock Split and Adjustments to Exercise Price

Metaplanet has announced a 10-for-1 stock split to improve liquidity. The split comes after a previous reverse split in August 2020 that combined 10 shares into one. The company wants to make its stock more available to investors.

Following the split, the total amount of outstanding shares will grow from 39.1 million to 391.6 million. This, the company says, will enable more investors to be involved in its growth. Stock acquisition rights issued on February 17 will also have their exercise price adjusted. The minimum exercise price will fall from 2,555 JPY to 256 JPY and the new exercise price will fall from 5,555 JPY per share to 556 JPY.

Metaplanet plans to adjust its authorized shares following the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, scheduled for March 24. Any changes will be formally announced after the meeting. The company has stated that the stock split will not affect its stated capital. In addition, the decision to split stock comes after a surge in the stock price of the company. The move will accommodate more retail investors.
