Antelope Enterprise Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: AEHL) will repurchase $95,000 of its shares after the company’s Bitcoin treasury strategy generated $190,000 in realized gains.
"The 'Genius Plan' has yielded positive results," Tingting Zhang, Chief Executive Officer of Antelope Enterprise, said. "By allocating realized gains to share repurchases, the Company aims to optimize its capital structure and enhance earnings per share."
The share buyback, set to begin on June 6, 2026, will utilize 50% of the profits from the company's "Sustainable Capital Recycling Framework." The news sent shares soaring, with the stock price surging over 150% during intraday trading on May 8. The company's Bitcoin strategy, initiated in February 2026, is managed through institutional custodian BitGo.
This buyback represents the first full cycle of the strategy, which aims to dynamically manage digital assets rather than holding them passively. Antelope Enterprise also intends to allocate 90% of proceeds from its recently effective $200 million Form F-3 shelf registration to further invest in the "Genius Plan."
The move highlights a growing trend of public companies using digital assets for treasury management and to create shareholder value. The significant stock reaction to a relatively small buyback suggests high investor sensitivity to crypto-related corporate strategies. Investors will watch the company's daily digital asset disclosures and the execution of the buyback starting in June.
