MicroStrategy Reports $10 Billion Net Income in Q2, Bitcoin Surge Drives Success

Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) released its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, showcasing a remarkable performance driven by Bitcoin’s (BTC) notable gains.

The company reported a net income of $10.02 billion or $32.60 per share. This was a significant turnaround from the net losses reported in the first quarter.

(Micro) Strategy’s Q2 Financial Performance

In its latest earnings report, Strategy disclosed an operating income of approximately $14.03 billion. This reflected a remarkable year-over-year (YOY) increase of 7,106.4%.

Total revenues amounted to $114.5 million, showing a 2.7% growth compared to the second quarter of 2024. The company noted that this was the second consecutive quarter where fair value accounting was applied.

Furthermore, in Q2, Strategy continued to accumulate Bitcoin and achieved a BTC yield of 19.7%. The firm now holds 628,791 Bitcoin. 

The total acquisition cost was $46.07 billion, with the average purchase price of  $73,277 per Bitcoin year-to-date. Based on the current Bitcoin price, the paper gains amount to $26.63 billion.

“Strategy has achieved a year-to-date BTC Yield of 25%, meeting our full year target well ahead of our initial timeline. As a result, our BTC $ Gain now exceeds $13 billion, and the increase in the price of bitcoin in the second quarter drove second quarter operating income of $14 billion and Q2 diluted EPS of $32.60,” CFO Andrew Kang noted.

This profit isn’t surprising given Bitcoin’s rising price in Q2. Between April and June, the largest cryptocurrency’s value appreciated by 30%. Similarly, when Bitcoin’s value dipped by over 11.6% in Q1, Strategy also suffered. At the time, the firm reported a net loss of $4.2 billion.

In its Q2 earnings release, Strategy also outlined its projected financial targets for 2025. These targets are based on the assumption that Bitcoin will reach a price of $150,000 by the end of the year.

The company expects operating income to be approximately $34 billion, net income of around $24 billion, and diluted earnings per share (EPS) of about $80. Strategy has also revised its Bitcoin-related targets for the year, raising the BTC yield target from 25.0% to 30.0%.

In a parallel announcement, the firm disclosed a $4.2 billion at-the-market (ATM) offering of Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock (STRC). 

The sales agreement, detailed in a July 31 press release, aims to raise capital for general corporate purposes, including additional Bitcoin acquisitions. This follows the firm’s earlier increase of its STRC offerings from $500 million to $2 billion.

“Strategy expects to make sales of STRC Stock pursuant to the ATM Program in a disciplined manner over an extended period, taking into account the trading price and trading volumes of the STRC Stock at the time of sale,” the press release reads.

The move aligns with Strategy’s ongoing commitment to expanding its Bitcoin portfolio, which has drawn praise and scrutiny from investors and analysts.
