Known as “Asia’s MicroStrategy,” Tokyo-listed Metaplanet (3350) has announced a staggering 738% year-over-year sales rise for its fiscal year 2025. The increase comes after the business underwent a dramatic metamorphosis from a hotel operator to a Bitcoin revenue and treasury powerhouse, with the cryptocurrency currently accounting for about 95% of its overall sales.
Bitcoin Income Business Becomes Primary Profit Engine
According to Metaplanet’s fiscal 2025 results report, which was made public on February 16, revenue increased to ¥8.9 billion ($58 million) from ¥1.06 billion ($6.9 million) the year before. The start of its “Bitcoin Income Generation” service in Q4 2024 was nearly the only factor driving this rise.
The majority of this revenue is generated from Bitcoin options transactions, notably the premiums collected from writing cash-secured puts. Operating profit increased by 1,695% as a result of this operational shift, reaching ¥6.29 billion ($41 million). By successfully converting Bitcoin’s high volatility into a steady cash flow stream, Metaplanet has lessened its reliance on conventional business sectors like media and hotels.
$665 Million Accounting Loss Masks Operational Strength
Metaplanet reported a consolidated net loss of ¥95 billion ($619 million) in spite of the record operational results. The business stressed that Japanese mark-to-market regulations are the main reason this loss is a non-cash accounting adjustment.
At year-end, the price of Bitcoin was close to $68,000, which was a substantial decline from its peak in late 2025. As a result, the corporation had to report an impairment loss of ¥102.2 billion ($665.8 million) on its holdings. The management pointed to a strong equity ratio of 90.7% and stated that this “paper loss” had no effect on the company’s cash flows or core business operations.
Accumulation Strategy: The Road to 1% of Global Supply
With its aggressive treasury expansion, Metaplanet’s holdings increased from 1,762 BTC at the end of 2024 to 35,102 BTC by the end of 2025. With this 1,892% rise, it now ranks fourth among public firms worldwide and is the largest corporate Bitcoin holder in Japan.
Despite recent market volatility, CEO Simon Gerovich has reiterated that the company will continue to follow its Bitcoin-native strategy. The company has even higher goals for its long-term roadmap:
- 2026 Forecast: The company expects revenue to grow another 80% to ¥16 billion ($104 million).
- The 1% Goal: Metaplanet aims to control 210,000 BTC (roughly 1% of the total circulating supply) by 2027.
The business recently approved a capital raise of up to $137 million and set up a $500 million credit facility to finance this objective, guaranteeing that it can keep accumulating Bitcoin even when the market declines.
Technical Analysis and Outlook
Despite a 1,200% increase in 2025, Metaplanet’s stock is currently navigating a softening of “Digital Asset Treasury” (DAT) premiums across the industry. The company’s BTC Yield, which measures how much Bitcoin supports each diluted share, increased 568% in the last 12 months and is being keenly watched by analysts. The positive argument for Metaplanet is still dependent on how well it works as a Bitcoin accumulation machine, so long as the firm can keep buying Bitcoin at rates higher than share dilution.
