BTC1.28%

The Smarter Web Company (SWC) CEO Andrew Webley has reaffirmed the firm’s long-term Bitcoin strategy. While presenting its first full-year results as a public company. In a detailed update shared on February 21. Webley said the company remains focused on increasing Bitcoin per share for investors despite recent market volatility

The statement came alongside the release of SWC’s Annual Report, AGM notice and refreshed investor presentation. While Bitcoin has traded mostly flat in recent weeks, Webley stressed that short-term price action doesn’t change the company’s conviction in its digital treasury strategy.

First Annual Results as a Listed Company

SWC reported it raised £225.2 million during the financial year ended October 31, 2025. The company closed the period holding 2,660 Bitcoin. Which later increased to 2,689 BTC as of February 19, 2026. Importantly, Andrew Webley noted the balance sheet carries no fiat debt. Which the company views as a key strength.

The firm posted a profit before tax of £2.8 million. However, excluding one-off items and fair value adjustments, the underlying result showed a £1.5 million loss. Even so, management said the operating business continues to perform in line with expectations. SWC will hold its annual general meeting on March 19, 2026 in Bristol.

Bitcoin Treasury Strategy Remains Core Focus

SWC CEO made it clear that the company’s Bitcoin treasury thesis has not changed. He described Bitcoin as “the most compelling form of scarce, decentralised capital.” According to him, the strategy aims to build balance sheet strength through digital assets. While growing long-term Bitcoin per share.

He also explained that recent market consolidation is not unusual. Instead, he framed volatility as a normal feature of an emerging monetary asset. The company believes patient accumulation during quieter market periods can create long-term shareholder value. Management continues to position SWC as a forward-looking business built around a Bitcoin-linked capital strategy.

Capital Activity and Investor Engagement

During the week, SWC also raised £191,754 through its ATM-style facility at an average price of about £0.38 per share. Andrew Webley said access to capital markets remains important for executing the company’s broader growth plan.

At the same time, the CEO highlighted strong retail investor support. He noted SWC has one of the largest retail communities among Bitcoin treasury companies. The firm plans to increase visibility through upcoming events, including participation in Strategy World in Las Vegas. It is also organizing a dedicated Bitcoin treasury event in the UK scheduled for May 29, 2026.

Outlook Amid a Challenging Market

Looking ahead, Smarter Web appears committed to disciplined execution rather than reacting to short-term price swings. SWC CEO acknowledged that sentiment across the crypto market has been difficult. However, he argued that conviction must come from long-term analysis, not daily volatility.

For now, the company’s playbook remains simple: strengthen the balance sheet, grow Bitcoin per share and expand investor awareness. Whether the strategy pays off will largely depend on Bitcoin’s next major cycle. Still, SWC is clearly positioning itself to ride that wave if and when it arrives.
