Strategy Launches Fourth Preferred stock Offering to Fuel Bitcoin Buys

Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR) has announced the launch of its fourth perpetual preferred stock offering, marking a new phase in the company's ongoing efforts to expand its Bitcoin treasury holdings.

On Monday, the company unveiled plans to conduct a public offering of 5 million shares of its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock, designated under the ticker STRC. The offering is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, with proceeds earmarked for general corporate purposes—including the acquisition of additional Bitcoin—as well as working capital.

Monthly dividends at 9% launch rate

Each STRC share carries a stated value of $100 and will accrue cumulative monthly dividends, payable in arrears on the final day of each month. Strategy’s board has set an initial dividend rate of 9% per annum, though the rate may vary over time, according to company filings.

This latest preferred issuance follows three previous series: STRK, STRF, and STRD—each of which trades on the Nasdaq Global Select Market alongside MSTR common stock.
