Metaplanet will cancel 41% of the shares related to the Series 10 warrants

Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich published a letter to shareholders stating that the company's board of directors has decided to further adjust the arrangements related to the Series 10 stock purchase warrants and cancel 41% of the related shares, resetting the conversion ratio to the level prior to the international issuance in September 2025.

According to the new arrangement, the conversion ratio of the warrants to shares will be reset from the previously fixed 1:696 to 1:410. Metaplanet stated that this move will eliminate over $220 million in warrant value, reduce the number of related potential shares by 41%, and correspondingly lower the fully diluted equity, while increasing the fully diluted Bitcoin holdings per share by approximately 8.8%.

In addition, all unvested warrants will be subject to longer-term exercise restrictions, with one-third becoming exercisable in 2029, 2030, and 2031, respectively. The previously agreed five-year lock-up period remains unchanged. The company will also cancel the originally planned allocation of 20% of the warrants to the employee incentive pool and will work with global compensation consultants to design a new compensation incentive plan.
