In a world where fortunes are made and lost faster than a cat can chase a laser pointer, Semler Scientific, Inc. has boldly filed a $500 million mixed-securities offering. This daring venture aims to fund additional bitcoin acquisitions, solidifying its audacious strategy to crown cryptocurrency as its primary treasury reserve asset. 🤑
Semler Chairman: ‘We Have Reached a Settlement in Principle’
Ah, Semler Scientific (Nasdaq: SMLR), the medical technology company that dreams big! They’ve announced plans to raise up to $500 million through a shelf registration to snatch up more bitcoin ( BTC). This revelation comes straight from an S-3 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The funds will fuel the company’s ongoing bitcoin accumulation strategy, which they adopted in May 2024. Talk about commitment! 💪
On Tuesday, the ever-enthusiastic Eric Semler, the company’s chairman of the board, proclaimed, “We have reached a settlement in principle, EXCITED TO BUY MORE BTC!” It seems they view bitcoin as a long-term store of value (SoV), likening it to gold but with a twist—greater growth potential due to its finite supply and the ever-growing institutional adoption. Who needs gold when you have digital coins, right? 😂
The filing grants Semler Scientific the power to sell debt securities, common stock, units, or warrants in one or more offerings. While proceeds may also be used for general corporate purposes, let’s be real—the primary focus is all about that bitcoin acquisition. The company has already dipped into previous equity and debt offerings to expand its bitcoin stash. 💰
For instance, Semler has cleverly deployed capital from its senior convertible notes offering and the sale of a minority stake to acquire bitcoin. They’ve further fortified their BTC treasury through an at-the-market (ATM) equity program and operational cash flow. As of April 15, 2025, Semler Scientific holds a whopping 3,192 BTC. Meanwhile, SMLR shares edged up 0.41% on Tuesday, extending a five-day climb of 8.8%. Who knew numbers could dance like that? 💃
The filing also highlighted bitcoin’s wild price swings, which have ranged from $50,000 to $109,000 in the past 12 months. While Semler openly addressed risks—from shifting regulations to digital security vulnerabilities—it doubled down on its bitcoin strategy. The company did not specify when the offering would wrap up, leaving us all on the edge of our seats! 🎢
