The purchase raised Strategy's holdings to 845,050 BTC, acquired for a cumulative $63.73 billion at an average price of $75,412. The company's public Bitcoin ledger records the same acquisition and holdings totals.

Share issuance funded several capital-allocation moves

Strategy sold about 4.53 million common shares for $602.8 million in net proceeds during the week. Alongside the Bitcoin purchase, it spent $151.8 million repurchasing STRC preferred shares and increased its flexible USD Cash pool to $1.61 billion, while its separate USD Reserve stood at $5.10 billion.

The allocation shows the company balancing Bitcoin accumulation with preferred-stock support and liquidity. It also leaves common shareholders exposed to dilution from new issuance and to a balance sheet whose value and financing capacity remain closely linked to Bitcoin and Strategy's traded securities.
