Strategy, the company formerly known as MicroStrategy, is riding high on a Bitcoin war chest now valued at over $64 billion. But behind the headline-making numbers lies a more precarious financial picture.
The company’s software division—the foundation it was built on—is no longer generating positive cash flow. With over $11.6 billion in debt and preferred stock obligations and more than $350 million in annual interest and dividend payments, Strategy is increasingly dependent on the value of its Bitcoin holdings and access to fresh capital.
As of June 30, Strategy held 597,000 BTC, acquired for $42.4 billion. While the unrealized gain exceeds $22 billion, the firm has paused BTC accumulation for the first time since early 2024, signaling a possible shift in strategy or financial tightening.
The company’s latest SEC filing warns of growing risks: from crypto price volatility to regulatory uncertainty and the absence of yield on Bitcoin. With new accounting rules requiring fair-value asset reporting, volatility could soon hit the balance sheet directly.
Strategy’s plan remains aggressive—it intends to raise more debt and equity to fund further Bitcoin buys. But without operational cash flow and a highly concentrated asset base, the margin for error is narrowing.
