This increase was funded directly by proceeds from the Common ATM, STRK ATM, and the newly completed STRF Preferred Stock offering. The company has also expanded its capital raising capacity with the establishment of the STRK ATM program in March 2025.

- Confirm the current market value of the 528,185 BTC holdings against the $35.63 billion aggregate cost basis to assess unrealized gains or losses.
- Monitor the remaining capacity in the ATM programs ($2.37 billion for MSTR and $20.97 billion for STRK) for potential future dilution or capital deployment.
