2. Strategy aims to surpass the treasury sizes of Microsoft, Google, and Amazon within three to five years, with the ultimate goal of exceeding Berkshire Hathaway’s $410 billion cash reserve.

3. The company reported $10 billion in net income in Q2, primarily from unrealized gains on its Bitcoin holdings.

4. Strategy redeemed $1 billion in convertible notes in January 2024 to reduce leverage and shift to preferred stock for more precise capital management.
