Japan’s Metaplanet Plan $500M Share Buyback Program, Stock Jumps 2.3%

Japan’s leading Bitcoin treasury company, Metaplanet, has announced a bold plan to buy back 13.15% of its outstanding shares. The firm has also secured a massive $500 million credit facility backed by Bitcoin, signaling a deep commitment to integrating digital assets into its corporate growth strategy.

According to the company’s official filing, it will buy back up to 150 million common shares, equal to 13.13% of its total shares (excluding treasury stock). The program will run through October 28, 2026, and the company can use its new credit facility for both share repurchases and additional Bitcoin purchases.

The buyback, supported by a $500 million credit line, shows the company’s confidence in its long-term growth and strong balance sheet.

The company said the goal is to make capital use more efficient and respond to the recent drop in its market-to-net-asset value (mNAV), which compares the market value of the company’s Bitcoin holdings to its overall value.

Bitcoin at the Core of Its Growth Strategy

Metaplanet’s aggressive Bitcoin-focused strategy stands out in the Japanese and global investment landscape. Currently, Metaplanet holds 30,823 BTC, valued at approximately $3.5 billion

The firm noted that its stock price often trades below the actual value of its Bitcoin holdings, creating an opportunity to increase its “BTC yield per share.” 

The company has highlighted its commitment to increasing its Bitcoin holdings, aiming for an ultimate target of holding 210,000 BTC, equal to 1% of the eventual 21 million Bitcoin supply, by 2027.

Metaplanet’s Stock Climbed 2.3%

Following the announcement, Metaplanet’s stock climbed 2.3%, closing at 499 yen. The rally reflects renewed investor optimism fueled by expectations that reduced share supply and an injection of financial flexibility will lift per-share value.

Metaplanet’s buyback initiative signals a broader shift: public companies are increasingly viewing digital assets not just as speculative holdings, but as foundational drivers for capital strategy and market positioning
