Strategy Proposes Semi-Monthly Dividends for MSTR Stock

News Flash 2026-04-20 04:46

Strategy has announced a proposal to pay semi-monthly dividends on its MSTR stock preferred equity, aiming to enhance liquidity and price stability. The company, led by Michael Saylor, plans to implement this change following a shareholder vote on June 8. The move comes as Strategy's Bitcoin treasury operations see growth, with Bitcoin prices climbing above $76,000. The proposal, detailed in a preliminary proxy filed on April 17, suggests that the new dividend schedule will reduce volatility and increase demand for STRC, Strategy's preferred equity. STRC has shown impressive performance with an 11.5% annual yield and a Sharpe Ratio of 4.5, outperforming traditional credit instruments. The company plans to have record dates for dividends on the 15th and last day of each month, complying with Nasdaq rules. Despite STRC's success, Strategy's MSTR shares have struggled, declining from a peak of $425 in July 2025 to a low of $106 in February. However, recent Bitcoin price recovery has spurred a rebound, with MSTR shares gaining 11% on April 17, now trading around $166, marking a 9.59% year-to-date increase.
