Summary

Strategy Inc executed a significant capital raise during the week of May 11-17, 2026, selling $2.0 billion in equity securities through its at-the-market programs. The company issued nearly $2.0 billion of its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock and $83.7 million of common stock, immediately deploying the proceeds to acquire 24,869 bitcoin at an average price of approximately $81,000 per coin.

This transaction continues Strategy's aggressive bitcoin accumulation strategy, bringing total holdings to 843,738 bitcoin. Retail investors should note the company's substantial remaining ATM capacity—over $26 billion for common stock and $17.5 billion for preferred stock—signals potential for significant future dilution as Strategy continues converting equity into bitcoin.

The average cost basis of $75,700 per bitcoin means current holdings are slightly underwater at the $81,000 purchase price, though the company appears undeterred in its accumulation strategy. Watch for the company's dashboard at www.strategy.com, now designated as an official Regulation FD disclosure channel, for real-time updates on bitcoin purchases and holdings between formal SEC filings. The sequencing of the $21 billion common stock capacity increase will be key to understanding dilution timing for existing shareholders.
