Bitcoin Reserve Strategy: As a core financial strategy, the company continuously increases its holdings of Bitcoin in the secondary market. As of July 16, 2025, it has accumulated 1,600 Bitcoins, with a total value of approximately £127.3 million and an average purchase cost of £79,534 per coin. Its "Ten-Year Plan" clearly identifies Bitcoin as a long-term reserve asset, aiming to hedge against fiat currency inflation risks and enhance asset returns through continuous coin purchases. Payment system innovation: Starting from 2023, we will accept Bitcoin as a payment method for customers, and we plan to apply blockchain technology in cross-border settlement and supply chain management in the future to reduce international transaction costs.

Asset appreciation income: The price fluctuations of Bitcoin directly affect the company's asset value. For example, when the price of Bitcoin exceeds $112,000 in 2025, its reserve value increases by over 60% compared to the beginning of the year. The company regularly discloses changes in reserve amounts, and after the announcement on July 16, 2025, of an increase of 325 Bitcoins, the price of Bitcoin rose by 1.8% on that day. Equity financing leverage: Raising funds through multiple stock issuances to purchase cryptocurrencies. For example, raising £15 million in July 2025 through an accelerated book-building process, all used to increase holdings in Bitcoin. This model leverages the market's long-term optimistic sentiment towards crypto assets to achieve rapid capital expansion.

Institutional Investor Benchmark: As the only publicly listed company on the London Stock Exchange focused on Bitcoin reserves, it provides compliant investment channels for institutional investors such as UK pension funds and trust funds. It is estimated that the scale of self-managed pensions in the UK exceeds £1 trillion, making the company an important target for indirect allocation of Bitcoin. Market price guidance: Its increase in holdings often triggers market follow-up. In the second quarter of 2025, the company's cryptocurrency purchases accounted for 0.08% of the total global corporate cryptocurrency purchases, directly driving the demand for Bitcoin. In addition, the company has pioneered the "Price to Bitcoin Yield Ratio (P/BYD)" metric, providing the market with a new tool to assess the value of cryptocurrency reserve enterprises.

Bitcoin ( BTC ): The company is an important institutional participant in the Bitcoin market. Although it does not directly engage in mining operations, its purchasing activities contribute 0.05% of the global corporate coin acquisition volume, indirectly affecting the security of the Bitcoin network and market liquidity. The secondary market purchasing behavior drives price increases by boosting demand, with its accumulation in the first half of 2025 accounting for 0.06% of the total global corporate coin acquisition volume. Indirectly influencing other cryptocurrencies: As a benchmark for traditional financial institutions entering the cryptocurrency space, its successful model may encourage more companies to follow suit, indirectly increasing market attention on mainstream cryptocurrencies like Ethereum.
