Metaplanet, a Tokyo-listed firm, revised its FY2025 forecast and published its FY2026 outlook after a volatile end to 2025 that included a large bitcoin-linked accounting loss. The company said its expanding Bitcoin Income Generation business and new capital instruments underpinned stronger operating results and future guidance. See a company image here: company photo.
Revenue for FY2025 reached 8.9 billion yen ($58 million), up from an earlier forecast of 6.8 billion yen ($44 million). Operating income rose to 6.3 billion yen ($41 million), an increase of roughly 34% over prior guidance.
The firm recorded a 104.6 billion yen (~$681 million) write-down on bitcoin holdings in Q4. That loss produced an ordinary loss of 98.6 billion yen (~$641 million) and a net loss of 76.6 billion yen (~$499 million). The company stated that the accounting loss "does not affect cash flows or business fundamentals."
Metaplanet holds about 35,102 BTC, worth more than $3 billion, and uses those holdings as collateral for structured option strategies inside its Bitcoin Income Generation unit. The company reported a BTC yield—growth in bitcoin holdings per share—up 568% year-on-year despite share dilution.
Capital changes included issuance of Class B perpetual preferred equity, MERCURY, a $500 million credit facility, and a senior Class A preferred share, MARS. Management said the moves reduced reliance on ordinary equity prices.
For FY2026 the company forecasts 16 billion yen ($104 million) in revenue and 11.4 billion yen ($74 million) in operating income. About 97.5% of projected sales are expected from bitcoin-linked activities, with roughly 400 million yen ($2.6 million) coming from its hotel business. The company did not provide a net income forecast for 2026 due to Bitcoin Price volatility.
