Metaplanet plans to issue ¥52 billion in zero-interest convertible bonds maturing in 2031 to repay ¥23.6 billion of Bitcoin-backed debt and allocate up to ¥28.3 billion for share repurchases. The bonds, led by Merrill Lynch International, will replace higher-cost Bitcoin-collateralized loans with longer-term unsecured debt, reducing borrowing costs and freeing some Bitcoin collateral. The company holds 44,000 BTC but exceeded its preferred borrowing ratio, prompting this refinancing and buyback strategy to improve shareholder value. The bonds allow conversion into shares, potentially affecting share count, and mature in October 2031.
