MicroStrategy Takes A $917 Million Impairment Loss On Its Bitcoin Stash As Crypto Prices Tumble
MicroStrategy, the largest bitcoin holding-publicly-traded company in the world, took a non-cash digital asset impairment charge in the third quarter, up from $424 million in the second quarter, the latest filings have shown.
在周二的公告中，该公司还透露，自 1989 年创立 MicroStrategy 并于 1998 年上市以来一直担任首席执行官兼董事会主席的迈克尔·塞勒 (Michael Saylor) 将卸任，担任执行主席一职。 自 2020 年起担任总裁的 Phong Le 将接替 Saylor 担任总裁兼首席执行官。
“I believe that splitting the roles of Chairman and CEO will enable us to better pursue our two corporate strategies of acquiring and holding bitcoin and growing our enterprise analytics software business.” 赛勒说。 “As Executive Chairman I will be able to focus more on our bitcoin acquisition strategy and related bitcoin advocacy initiatives, while Phong will be empowered as CEO to manage overall corporate operations.”
The latest filing and subsequent shake-up in the company’s top leadership come on the heels of the company falling in the red on its Bitcoin stash following a brutal crypto winter. Nevertheless, Michael Saylor has maintained that the company is ready to face the challenging market conditions and defend its Bitcoin 位置。
MicroStrategy’s CFO Andrew Kang echoed those sentiments in an earnings conference call, stating that the company has about 85,000 unpledged Bitcoin available should its obligations to Silvergate bank fall due. “我们有足够的抵押品应对任何价格波动，”康说。
自公司于 2020 年开始购买加密货币以来，它一直在 买多点 Bitcoin, with the total stash value swelling to about $8 billion when BTC tapped $68,000 in November 2021. As of writing, it holds some 129,699 bitcoins with an average cost of $30,664 per bitcoin. However, the market value of those holdings has dropped to roughly $3.03 billion today, with BTC plunging hard in the past ten months.
Last month, Tesla, another prominent company with sizeable Bitcoin 馆藏， 倾销约 75% 其持股以维持公司的运营。 然而，Michael Saylor 坚称他们无意出售他们的硬币，并将在现金流允许的情况下继续购买更多硬币。
