Bitcoin (BTC) Treasury Update: SMLR Acquires 455 BTC for Its Balance Sheet


Medical equipment company Semler Scientific (SMLR) has announced its third-largest bitcoin purchase since adopting a bitcoin standard approximately one year ago. In the ten days leading up to May 22, the company acquired 455 BTC for $50 million, averaging $109,801 per bitcoin. This acquisition, funded through its at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program, brings Semler’s total holdings to 4,264 BTC, purchased for $390 million and currently valued at over $450 million.

To date, the company has issued 3,003,488 shares under its April 15 $500 million ATM program, raising $114.8 million.
