Strategy touts 13.7% YTD Bitcoin yield in earnings print

Michael Saylot's tech firm Strategy has earned shareholders a Bitcoin yield of 13.7% in the year-to-date, the company said in its May 1 earnings report. That equates to a Bitcoin gain of more than 61,000 Bitcoin ( BTC ), worth approximately $5.8 billion, according to the company. Bitcoin yield and Bitcoin gain are unofficial accounting metrics that Strategy uses to benchmark the success of its BTC buying strategy. Bitcoin yield measures the ratio of Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings to the number of outstanding shares of its stock, MSTR. Bitcoin gain quantifies that figure in terms of accrued Bitcoin, Strategy said in February. “We are increasing our 2025 ‘BTC Yield’ target to 25% and our 2025 ‘BTC $ Gain’ target to $15 billion,” Andrew Kang, Strategy’s chief financial officer, said in a statement. Strategy generated a Bitcoin yield of 11% and a Bitcoin gain of nearly 50,000 BTC in the first quarter of 2025, it added. The company also announced plans to offer an additional $21 billion worth of stock to finance future Bitcoin buys.
