Michael Saylor Outlines Plan to Convert $6 Billion Convertible Debt Into Equity

Michael Saylor said his company plans to equitize approximately $6 billion in outstanding convertible bond debt over the next three to six years, a move designed to reduce leverage and reinforce its balance sheet.

The firm, widely known for its aggressive Bitcoin treasury strategy, currently holds 714,644 BTC valued at roughly $49 billion. According to company statements, Bitcoin would need to fall nearly 88% to around $8,000 for its holdings to match the size of its convertible debt obligations.

Converting convertible notes into equity means bondholders would receive company shares instead of cash repayment at maturity. While this reduces debt pressure, it may dilute existing shareholders through additional stock issuance.
