Metaplanet faces target cut after Bitcoin-treasury rebuttal

Metaplanet faces target cut after Bitcoin-treasury rebuttal

Gerovich rejects allegations, asserts Metaplanet Bitcoin disclosures and strategy

As reported by youtocoin.com, Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich rejected anonymous allegations about the Metaplanet Bitcoin treasury strategy and disclosure timing, calling the claims inconsistent with the company’s record. He emphasized that strategy continuity, not opportunistic timing, guides Bitcoin accumulation.

He reiterated that September Bitcoin purchases were publicly announced and described accumulation as long-term and systematic rather than market timing. As reported by en.bloomingbit.io, disclosures cover public Bitcoin addresses, borrowing capacity, collateral and interest structure, with counterparty identity and precise rates withheld at counterpart request.

Why it matters: volatility, accounting losses, and Cantor Fitzgerald target cut

Under fair-value accounting, Bitcoin’s price swings can create large non-cash gains or losses that overshadow operating performance. This dynamic can elevate valuation volatility and investor sensitivity during market stress.

According to ad-hoc-news.de, Metaplanet’s revenue rose about 738% year over year while it recorded roughly ¥95 billion in non-cash losses tied to Bitcoin remeasurement. Cantor Fitzgerald implemented a price target cut roughly by half but maintained an Overweight rating, highlighting volatility-driven valuation pressure.

“These allegations of ‘dishonest information disclosure’ are ‘inconsistent with the facts’,” said Simon Gerovich, CEO of Metaplanet.

At the time of this writing, Bitcoin (BTC) was near $67,297 with very high 11.75% volatility and short-term sentiment skewed bearish. In Tokyo, Metaplanet (3350.T) closed at ¥360, down 7.69%, within a 52-week range of ¥291 to ¥1,930.

What to watch next for Metaplanet and Bitcoin exposure

Disclosure checkpoints: BTC addresses, purchase announcements, borrowing details

Investors can watch for updated on-chain Bitcoin addresses and real-time dashboards, timely purchase announcements, and clarity on any borrowing, purpose, collateralization, and interest structure. Exceptions may include counterparty identity and precise rates if confidentiality applies.

Risk drivers: Bitcoin volatility, fair-value effects, options-income tilt

Key risks remain Bitcoin volatility, which directly drives fair-value swings in reported earnings, and the scale of any leverage. The options-income tilt can smooth cash flow but may cap upside or magnify drawdowns in stressed markets.
