KindlyMD, Inc. (Nasdaq: NAKA) described the commitment as its largest single investment to date and its first in an Asian public company pursuing a corporate bitcoin (BTC) accumulation strategy. The company expects funding on Sept. 16, with issuance and delivery of Metaplanet common stock slated for Sept. 17; proceeds are primarily earmarked to purchase bitcoin, according to the announcement.

Metaplanet’s board approved the international offering on Aug. 27. The firm set an issue price of JPY 553 per share, with an amount to be paid in of JPY 533.39 per share, bringing the aggregate issue price to JPY 212,905,000,000 and total paid-in proceeds to JPY 205,355,150,000. The discount rate versus the Sept. 9 reference price was 9.93%. Following the issuance, the total number of shares outstanding will rise from 755,974,340 to 1,140,974,340.

Metaplanet said an estimated JPY 204,123 million in net proceeds will be allocated in two parts: JPY 183,711 million for bitcoin purchases between Sept.–Oct. 2025 and JPY 20,412 million to its Bitcoin Income Generation Business—principally options trading—through Dec. 2025. As of Sept. 1, the company held 20,000 bitcoin with an approximate market value of JPY 322.0 billion, and it reported JPY 1,904 million in sales revenue from its options activity in Q2 FY2025. The company aims to achieve full-year operating profitability.

“Metaplanet has established itself as a leader in Japan’s bitcoin landscape through its commitment to advancing financial innovation and driving the global adoption of bitcoin,” KindlyMD Chairman and CEO David Bailey said, adding that the investment supports a strategy placing bitcoin at the center of institutional finance. KindlyMD characterized the move as part of a broader effort to expand bitcoin’s net asset value quickly via the offering.

Metaplanet also highlighted recent steps to diversify capital tools. On Sept. 1, shareholders authorized two classes of perpetual preferred shares as part of an initiative to pioneer what the company calls Japan’s bitcoin-backed fixed-income market, alongside common equity issuance, to optimize long-term accumulation while maintaining a scalable capital structure.

In outlining the rationale for the offering, Metaplanet cited Japan’s macro backdrop—elevated public debt, prolonged real negative interest rates, and yen depreciation—and reiterated a May 2024 policy shift designating bitcoin as its primary reserve asset to hedge currency risk and pursue long-term appreciation potential. The company said the capital raise is intended to insulate its treasury from yen weakness and to enhance corporate value over time.

KindlyMD’s announcement arrives after it completed an August merger with Nakamoto Holdings, forming a public bitcoin treasury strategy alongside its healthcare operations. Metaplanet is listed on the TSE Standard market under code 3350 and trades over the counter as MTPLF.
