Following the strong Q3 performance, the Japanese firm revised its full-year 2025 consolidated guidance.

The updated forecast reflects a 100% increase in revenue and an 88% rise in operating profit compared to previous projections.

CEO Simon Gerovich noted that the Q3 results demonstrate operational scalability. Besides, it also reinforces the company’s financial position ahead of its planned Metaplanet preferred share issuance, supporting the broader Bitcoin Treasury strategy.
