The firm raised ¥500B via MERCURY shares and plans to hold 1% of global Bitcoin by 2027.
Metaplanet Inc. (3350.T) stunned markets with its FY2025 results, reporting massive growth in revenue and profits. The Tokyo-based firm saw revenue climb to ¥8.91 billion, a 738% increase from last year. Operating profit jumped even more dramatically to ¥6.29 billion, reflecting a 1,695% year-on-year surge.
This achievement was credited by CEO Simon Gerovich to the aggressive accumulation of Bitcoins by Metaplanet. By the end of the year, the company had accumulated 35,102 Bitcoins, making it the largest Bitcoin holder in Japan and the fourth-largest globally among publicly listed companies. The approach of Metaplanet to Bitcoin, together with its diversified financial model, is responsible for its fast growth.
In addition, the Bitcoins accumulated by Metaplanet currently make up about 0.16% of the total Bitcoins in the world. The company’s ambitious goal is to accumulate 1% of the total Bitcoins in the world by 2027.
“Our aggressive stance on Bitcoin has contributed to substantial revenue and profit growth,” he noted. This expansion reflects not only Metaplanet’s confidence in Bitcoin but also its commitment to integrating the cryptocurrency into a robust, yield-driven business model.
Aggressive Bitcoin Accumulation Drives Growth
Metaplanet’s Bitcoin treasury expanded from 1,762 BTC to more than 35,000 BTC in a short period. Apart from accumulating, the firm issued MERCURY-class preferred stocks, raising over ¥500 billion for acquisitions. Furthermore, private placements of Class B Preferred Shares raised ¥21.249 billion, with a 4.9% annual return.
Metaplanet gained significant liquidity to expand its Bitcoin assets. The above financial transactions enabled the company to improve revenue sources and boost operational margins to an impressive 70.6% in FY2025.
Diversified Strategy Enhances Stability
In addition to its Bitcoin plan, Metaplanet has developed a diverse financial model. The company’s yield business helps to offset its cryptocurrency investments, leading to a significant increase in profits. The operating profit jumped to ¥6.287 billion, symbolizing the integration of treasury and business operations.
In addition, the company projects FY2026 revenue of ¥16 billion, an 80% increase, and operating profit of ¥11.4 billion, an 81% increase. Therefore, investors consider Metaplanet a Bitcoin-centric company and a strong, diversified financial company.
