KindlyMD(NAKA) shares dropped 12% on August 26, closing at $8.07, amid growing market reaction to its new Bitcoin treasury plan. The company extended its losses by another 3.10% in after-hours trading, settling at $7.82.
This decline came just hours after the company unveiled a $5 billion at-the-market (ATM) equity offering.
KindlyMD announced the ATM Program to strengthen its financial position and support its Bitcoin treasury strategy. The company aims to issue and sell common shares directly into the market under flexible conditions. Proceeds will support acquisitions, projects, capital needs, and the Bitcoin treasury initiative.
The program forms part of a long-term capital plan initiated following its recent merger with Nakamoto Holdings Inc. Executives intend to use the capital to purchase more Bitcoin and expand healthcare operations.
Bitcoin Treasury Strategy Takes Center Stage
The Bitcoin treasury strategy sits at the core of KindlyMD’s latest funding move. Management sees Bitcoin as a strategic treasury asset and plans to continue building its reserves. Already, the company owns 5,744 Bitcoin after its first purchase following the merger.
KindlyMD views Bitcoin as a hedge and potential long-term store of value, adding it to its corporate balance sheet. The new offering will help the company execute this plan while maintaining financial flexibility. The approach reflects the Bitcoin-native philosophy of Nakamoto Holdings, now integrated into the business.
KindlyMD believes this approach will allow it to leverage both healthcare revenues and Bitcoin asset appreciation. With the market still digesting the impact, future stock movements will likely reflect confidence in this dual-track plan. The Bitcoin treasury is expected to grow as more funds are allocated from share sales.
Merger With Nakamoto Shifts Company Focus
KindlyMD completed its merger with Nakamoto Holdings two weeks prior to the announcement, transforming its business structure. The new entity combines value-based healthcare services with a bold Bitcoin treasury strategy. This combination forms a hybrid model rarely seen in public markets.
The company plans to use proceeds from the ATM Program to expand both operations and Bitcoin reserves. In parallel, it continues to focus on reducing opioid use and promoting algorithmic healthcare guidance. Despite the ambitious roadmap, short-term selling followed the unveiling of the capital program.
With the ATM Program now live, KindlyMD can issue shares directly into the market based on prevailing trading conditions. It partnered with several major financial institutions to manage the offering and ensure regulatory compliance. As the Bitcoin treasury expands, market perception will be key to sustaining confidence in the stock.
