Semler Scientific also reported that BTC’s age is 22.2%, a key performance metric used by the company to evaluate its effective efficiency in obtaining Bitcoin using equity. KPIs are derived from changes in the ratio between Bitcoin holdings and assumed shares have been issued.
Since launching its ATM stock program on April 15, Semler has raised about $39.8 million by selling more than 1.1 million shares. The strategy is part of a broader capital shift toward Bitcoin’s heavy Treasury approach, which Semler Scientific believes is a value-added for shareholders.
This bold Bitcoin accumulation strategy not only makes the company a focus for Bitcoin, but also restores the market narrative.
“We are the second public U.S. company to adopt Bitcoin as a major Treasury strategy,” Semler said in an interview last month. “It looks very similar to MicroStrategy in August 2020 … We are not really growing. We need to figure out a way to start growing, and we addressed Bitcoin, which is a good decision.”
Originally a drama, to escape stagnant market valuations (Semler calls “zombie companies”), has evolved into a definitive shift. “Our stock used to triple. Now, it’s basically doubled … hasn’t done anything for years,” he said.
Now, seeking a reference point for institutions that are indirectly exposed to BTC, SMLR continues to gain correlation. “Most investment funds cannot buy ETFs,” Semler said. “We are really the only way they can get in touch with Bitcoin in the stock market.”
The task did not slow down. “We have accumulated bitcoin very early and we will continue to do that.”
