Major Strategic Shift
A watershed moment has arrived for Metaplanet. As its shareholders have recently adopted a number of important proposals at a general meeting. The leadership, share structure, and fundamental direction of the firm will be altered as a result of the choices taken on June 28, 2024.
A significant change in Metaplanet’s trajectory was signaled by the approval of four key agenda items at the June 28, 2024, extraordinary general meeting of shareholders. As a first step, the company’s Articles of Incorporation were revised to reflect its revised strategic objective on the use of Bitcoin for treasury management.
A share consolidation plan was also accepted by the shareholders. This plan would reduce the total number of authorized shares to 22,823,794 and consolidate 10 common shares into 1. The plan is set to take effect on August 1, 2024. But the meeting also green-lit a 65 million share increase to the total authorized shares, increasing the company’s power to issue shares.
