Strategy’s perpetual preferred stock STRC has returned to its $100 par value, giving the company more room to raise capital for additional Bitcoin acquisitions. The latest development highlights Strategy’s ongoing commitment to expanding its Bitcoin treasury strategy through equity offerings tied to STRC shares.
According to the Bitcoin Treasuries ATM tracker dated May 11, 2026, Strategy’s at-the-market (ATM) program remains active and recently generated approximately $206.6 million in net proceeds. The capital came from the issuance of nearly 2.12 million STRC shares. Shortly after, Strategy confirmed another Bitcoin purchase worth $43 million, further strengthening its BTC holdings.
Based on current Bitcoin market data, the newly raised funds could potentially allow Strategy to acquire around 2,536 BTC at an estimated average price of $81,471 per coin. Investor interest in STRC also surged, with trading volume climbing to nearly $445 million while the preferred stock maintained exceptional price stability between $99.99 and $100.01 during Monday’s session.
The stock had already approached its target valuation on May 8, when STRC closed at $99.99 before reaching $100 in after-hours trading. Trading activity exceeded $218 million that day, signaling continued market demand for the product.
Strategy’s STRC currently offers an annual yield of 11.5%, with the next ex-dividend date scheduled for May 15, 2026. Executive Chairman Michael Saylor previously explained that the preferred stock structure was specifically designed to maintain a $100 price target through adjustable dividend payouts. Higher yields are intended to attract investors when the stock falls below par value, while payouts can be reduced when shares trade above the target.
Despite the momentum, economist Peter Schiff continues to criticize Strategy’s Bitcoin-focused treasury approach. Schiff recently questioned Michael Saylor’s public comments suggesting STRC may be suitable for retirees seeking income and capital preservation, arguing such statements could raise concerns regarding SEC marketing and antifraud regulations.
