Genius Group increases Bitcoin Treasury target to 10,000 BTC

Plans to finance the Bitcoin purchases via balanced mix of funding sources 

SINGAPORE, July 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genius Group Limited (NYSE:GNS) ("Genius Group" or the "Company"), a leading AI-powered, Bitcoin-first education group, today announced that it has increased its Bitcoin Treasury target 10x from 1,000 BTC to 10,000 BTC.

The Company aims to reach its Bitcoin Treasury target of 10,000 BTC in 12 to 24 months through an ongoing purchase plan. The Company intends to fund its Bitcoin purchases via a balanced mix of funding options designed to maximize the Company's BTC Yield.

BTC Yield is a Bitcoin Treasury KPI that represents the percentage change period-to-period of the ratio between the change in the Company's bitcoin holdings and the change in its Assumed Diluted Shares Outstanding. The Company believes this KPI can be used to supplement an investor's understanding of the extent to which the issuing of additional ordinary shares to purchase bitcoin is accretive. The higher the yield, the greater the increase in Bitcoin per share during the period.

Genius Group achieved a BTC Yield of 74% from May 22, 2025 to July 4, 2025. On May 22, 2025, the Company won its appeal on a Preliminary Injunction preventing it from buying Bitcoin, and was able to restart Bitcoin purchases for its Bitcoin Treasury.

The funding options available to the Company to maintain a positive BTC Yield (ensuring any equity dilution is accretive) includes a balanced mix of funding via its At-The-Market facility (ATM), debt financing, low-cost convertible bonds, fixed-income preferred shares and funding from its operating business.

As part of its funding plan, the Company has signed an ATM facility with an aggregate offering price of up to $1.1 billion with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, as sole sales agent. This includes a $100 million ATM facility off its current effective shelf registration statement, and a further $1 billion ATM facility off a new $1.2 billion shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 7, 2025, which has not yet been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Genius Group CEO, Roger Hamilton, said "We are currently seeing a price appreciation of the Bitcoin we have purchased for our Bitcoin Treasury, and we are pleased to be announcing this substantial increase in our Bitcoin Treasury target to 10,000 Bitcoin."

"We believe that the combination of the growth in our education business and the expansion of our Bitcoin Treasury positions us on an accelerated path towards our target of building Genius Group to drive long-term company growth. Our goal is to continue growing our Bitcoin Treasury while also growing the Bitcoin per share for our shareholders."
