Metaplanet Posts Record Revenue, Expands Bitcoin Holdings Amid Large Non‑Cash BTC Loss
Tokyo-listed Metaplanet reported a sharp revenue increase driven by Bitcoin activity but recorded a sizeable non-cash valuation loss; the company is pursuing new equity instruments to accelerate Bitcoin accumulation.
Metaplanet reported FY2025 revenue up 738% year‑over‑year to ¥8.9 billion, driven mainly by its Bitcoin income business, but posted a net loss after a substantial non‑cash Bitcoin valuation writedown of about ¥102.2 billion (roughly $665.8 million), producing a reported net loss near ¥95 billion (about $619 million) for the year [6][4].
Company filings and coverage show Bitcoin‑related revenue accounted for roughly 95% of income as Metaplanet expanded its digital‑asset treasury, even as unrealized Bitcoin losses weighed on results; some outlets reported unrealized BTC losses exceeding $1 billion [6][1][3].
To accelerate accumulation, Metaplanet launched a multi‑tier preferred equity strategy (branded MARS and MERCURY) intended to fund additional Bitcoin purchases and target an eventual 100,000 BTC by 2026, while the company’s shares traded near $2.17 (¥326) as of Feb. 16, 2026 [2][4].
Metaplanet’s results show strong revenue growth tied to Bitcoin operations, offset by large non‑cash valuation losses; the firm is doubling down on accumulation via structured equity instruments as it grows its BTC treasury [2][4][6].
