- The company cut its flexible-term debt by $1.5 million, reducing overall debt to $7.9 million.

- Retail sentiment for both Genius Group and Bitcoin remained in ‘bearish’ territory, despite recent gains in BTC price.
Genius Group announced the acquisition of 42 additional Bitcoin between November 21 and December 3, at an average price of $89,700 per BTC. This move increased the company’s Bitcoin holdings to 180 BTC, up from 138 BTC, representing a 30% growth in its treasury. The firm’s recent Bitcoin purchases and previous trades generated a combined profit of $1 million from realized Bitcoin sales in the fourth quarter.
The company’s Bitcoin sales included the earlier sale of 62 BTC at an average price of $108,000 per coin, and the subsequent repurchase at a lower cost. This transactional activity contributed to the company’s overall realized profit from Bitcoin operations during the quarter.
In addition to its cryptocurrency transactions, Genius Group reported significant progress in strengthening its balance sheet. The company announced it reduced its flexible-term debt by $1.5 million, lowering its total debt to $7.9 million from $9.4 million. With these repayments, all previous liens on its assets from prior debt arrangements have been removed.
This strategy aligns with Genius Group’s emphasis on a “Bitcoin-first” treasury approach, focusing on maximizing value for shareholders without issuing new equity. The company stated that this approach may also support future share repurchases or acquisitions.
Market data showed that Genius Group’s stock experienced a 2.5% drop in morning trading after the announcement. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for the company remained bearish, mirroring sentiment toward Bitcoin itself, which also stayed in bearish territory the previous day. Bitcoin traded at about $92,962.20, up 0.51% in the past day, according to data.
Over the past year, Genius Group shares have increased by nearly 2% year-to-date but are down more than 18% over the last twelve months.
