Introducing the "Bitcoin Yield" KPI indicator

Since the beginning of Q2, MicroStrategy has acquired 12,222 Bitcoins for $805 million, for a total Bitcoin holding of 226,500, at an average cost of $36,821 per Bitcoin, for a total cost of $8.34 billion.

MicroStrategy has introduced a new key performance indicator "Bitcoin Yield" for its Bitcoin strategy. Its “Bitcoin Yield” is 12.2% so far this year, and it aims to grow 4% to 8% annually over the next three years.

Bitcoin Yield is the ratio of a microstrategy’s Bitcoin holdings to its diluted shares outstanding. Diluted shares outstanding include all actual shares of the Company's common stock and any additional shares resulting from the conversion of all convertible notes, the exercise of all stock options and the settlement of all restricted and performance stock units. This metric shows the company’s Bitcoin holdings compared to its underlying total number of shares.

The Company uses Bitcoin Returns as a key performance indicator to help evaluate the performance of its strategy of acquiring Bitcoin in a manner that the Company believes is beneficial to shareholders. MicroStrategy believes that this KPI can be used to supplement investors' understanding and decision-making about buying Bitcoin through the issuance of additional common shares or instruments convertible into common shares.
