Company Announcements

TYSONS CORNER, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 4, 2025-- Strategy Inc (Nasdaq: STRF/STRC/STRK/STRD/MSTR) today announced that, subject to market and other conditions, it intends to conduct an initial public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of 3,500,000 shares of Strategy’s 10.00% Series A Perpetual Stream Preferred Stock (the “STRE Stock”).

Strategy intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of bitcoin and for working capital.

The STRE Stock will accumulate cumulative dividends (“regular dividends”) at a rate per annum equal to 10.00% on the stated amount thereof, which is €100 per share of STRE Stock. Regular dividends on the STRE Stock will be payable when, as and if declared by Strategy’s board of directors or any duly authorized committee thereof, out of funds legally available for their payment, quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning on December 31, 2025. Declared regular dividends on the STRE Stock will be payable solely in cash. In the event that any accumulated regular dividend on the STRE Stock is not paid on the applicable regular dividend payment date, then additional regular dividends (“compounded dividends”) will accumulate on the amount of such unpaid regular dividend, compounded quarterly. The compounded dividend rate applicable to any unpaid regular dividend that was due on a regular dividend payment date will initially be a rate per annum equal to 10% plus 100 basis points; provided, however, that, until such unpaid regular dividend, together with compounded dividends thereon, is paid in full, such compounded dividend rate will increase by 100 basis points per annum for each subsequent regular dividend period, up to a maximum dividend rate of 18% per annum.

If Strategy fails to declare a regular dividend on or prior to a given regular record date, such failure will constitute the issuance of a notice of deferral. Upon issuance of such notice, Strategy will (except during any period when the terms of our dividend senior stock or indebtedness then outstanding would prohibit the payment of dividends on the STRE Stock) use commercially reasonable efforts over the following 60-day period to sell STRK Stock, STRD Stock, class A common stock and/or other junior stock to raise proceeds in an amount sufficient to cover any deferred dividends that would have been due with respect to the applicable regular dividend payment date, plus compounded dividends thereon, on the next “deferred regular dividend payment date” (as defined in the prospectus supplement related to this offering); provided, however, that Strategy’s ability to use any such proceeds to cover any such deferred dividends (plus compounded dividends thereon) on the STRE Stock is subject to the payment of accumulated dividends in full on Strategy’s STRF Stock and STRC Stock and the terms of any other dividend senior stock that Strategy may issue in the future. Payment of any declared regular dividend on such deferred regular dividend payment date will be made, if at all, to the preferred stockholders of record as of the close of business on the “deferred regular record date” (as defined in the prospectus supplement related to this offering) immediately preceding such deferred regular dividend payment date.

Strategy will have the right, at its election, to redeem all, and not less than all, of the STRE Stock, at any time, for cash if the total number of shares of all STRE Stock then outstanding is less than 25% of the total number of shares of STRE Stock originally issued in this offering and in any future offering taken together. In addition, Strategy will have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the STRE Stock if certain tax events occur. The redemption price for any STRE Stock to be redeemed will be a cash amount equal to the liquidation preference of such share to be redeemed as of the business day before the date on which Strategy sends the related redemption notice, plus accumulated and unpaid regular dividends on such share to, but excluding, the redemption date.

If an event that constitutes a “fundamental change” under the certificate of designations governing the STRE Stock occurs, then, subject to certain limitations, holders of the STRE Stock will have the right to require Strategy to repurchase some or all of their shares of STRE Stock at a cash repurchase price equal to the stated amount of the STRE Stock to be repurchased, plus accumulated and unpaid regular dividends, if any, to, but excluding the fundamental change repurchase date.

The liquidation preference of the STRE Stock will initially be €100 per share. Effective immediately after the close of business on each business day after the initial issue date (and, if applicable, during the course of a business day on which any sale transaction to be settled by the issuance of STRE Stock is executed, from the exact time of the first such sale transaction during such business day until the close of business of such business day), the liquidation preference per share will be adjusted to be the greatest of (i) the stated amount per share of STRE Stock; (ii) in the case of any business day with respect to which Strategy has, on such business day or any business day during the ten trading day period preceding such business day, executed any sale transaction to be settled by the issuance of STRE Stock, an amount equal to the last reported sale price per share of STRE Stock on the trading day immediately before such business day; and (iii) the arithmetic average of the last reported sale prices per share of STRE Stock for each trading day of the ten consecutive trading days (or, if applicable, the lesser number of trading days as have elapsed during the period from, and including, the initial issue date to, but excluding, such business day) immediately preceding such business day.

Barclays Bank PLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc, Moelis & Company LLC, SG Americas Securities, LLC, TD Securities (USA) LLC, Canaccord Genuity Limited and StoneX Financial Inc. are acting as joint book-running managers for the offering.

The STRE Stock are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the EEA. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the “Insurance Distribution Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the STRE Stock or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the STRE Stock or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

Notice to Prospective Investors in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”)

Prohibition of sales to U.K. retail investors: In the U.K., this communication is only addressed to persons who are “qualified investors” within the meaning of Article 2(e) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the “EUWA”) (the “U.K. Prospectus Regulation”) and to persons who have professional experience in matters relating to investments falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005, as amended (the "Order"), (ii) high net worth entities falling withing Article 49(2) of the Order and (iii) persons at or to whom it can otherwise lawfully be distributed or directed (all such persons together being referred to as “relevant persons”).

UK MIFIR product governance / Professional investors and ECPs only target market: Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer’s product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the STRE Stock has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the STRE Stock is only eligible counterparties, as defined in the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook (“COBS”), and professional clients, as defined in Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (“UK MiFIR”); and (ii) all channels for distribution of the STRE Stock to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the STRE Stock (a “UK distributor”) should take into consideration the manufacturers’ target market assessment; however, a UK distributor subject to the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the STRE Stock (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers’ target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
