Capital B Expands Bitcoin Holdings Amid Strong Treasury Strategy

BTC-0.82%
  • Capital B added six more Bitcoin using new shares, pushing total holdings to 2,834 BTC worth over €260 million.

  • The firm’s BTC strategy delivered a 0.2% yield so far this year, showing steady growth despite market volatility.

  • Shares issued at a premium funded the purchase, highlighting a disciplined treasury plan and strong governance.

Capital ₿ is accelerating its Bitcoin accumulation strategy as it confirms the acquisition of six additional BTC for €0.3 million at €55,270 per coin. This move brings its total holdings to 2,834 BTC, valued at €263.8 million, according to the company’s latest update.

Alexandre Laizet, Board Director of Bitcoin Strategy at Capital ₿, highlighted that the firm achieved a BTC Yield of 0.2% year-to-date (YTD). The company executed the purchase under an “ATM” capital increase contract with TOBAM, emphasizing its continued focus on expanding digital asset reserves.

The capital increase, completed at €0.67 per share, raised €0.4 million and enabled the acquisition of six BTC. The company issued 601,000 new ordinary shares, priced according to the highest of three metrics outlined in its ATM agreement. These included the prior day’s closing price, a multiple of the “mNAV,” and a floor price determined by a prior extraordinary general meeting.

Consequently, the average rounded subscription price represented an 11.1% premium over the previous day’s closing. Capital ₿ confirmed that the new shares are listed on Euronext Growth in Paris, under the offer compartment, without the need for an AMF-approved prospectus.

Strategic BTC Yield Growth

Since the start of 2026, Capital ₿ has steadily increased its BTC reserve while generating measurable returns. The company reports a BTC Gain of 5.3 coins and a BTC € Gain of €0.3 million as of February 16.

Besides, quarter-to-date performance mirrors YTD growth at 0.2%. Laizet emphasized that “Capital B confirms the acquisition of 6 BTC for €0.3 million, the holding of a total of 2,834 BTC, and a BTC Yield of 0.2% YTD.” The firm also holds an additional 60 BTC for operational purposes, segregated from its treasury reserves.

The transaction was carried out by the CEO based on the delegation of authority granted by the Board on February 9, 2026, which indicates good governance practices. In addition, the transaction is consistent with the 12th resolution approved at the General Meeting of Shareholders in June 2025. The strategic process indicates careful planning in the timing of acquisitions and the effective use of capital increases.
