“When the £163m hits”17 Dec 2025 20:02
Somebody doesn’t understand the concept of convertible debt…
£163m was raised through a convertible, bitcoin was bought at a level about 35% higher than current levels. 47% of the investors wanted their money back and the company had to crystalise losses to repay them. The other 53% agreed to the backstop date and had their shares converted at a 1p and are now sitting on a loss.
As for “£163m”..
For anyone new to this stuff, an example. If i give you £1m and you spend £900k on whisky and women, are you now worth £1m or £100k? The amount you started with is irrelevant, it’s what you have now.
All PJ and SW are doing is highlighting the value destruction here. It doesn’t matter what the company raised, it could have been $1trn; what they currently have in assets does - and that, as they admit in the RNS, is c. £52m in assets. Hence the simple calculation. I completed the CFA, I’m not sure these guys could spell it.
