An update from Strive Inc ( (ASST) ) is now available.

On January 28, 2026, Strive Inc. announced the closing of an upsized and oversubscribed follow-on offering of 1,320,000 shares of its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock (SATA Stock) at $90 per share, generating about $109.2 million in net proceeds as part of a $225 million capital raise when combined with concurrent exchanges of Semler Scientific notes. The strong institutional demand for Strive’s digital credit allowed the company to retire $90 million of Semler’s 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 through a stock-for-notes exchange and pay down a $20 million Coinbase loan, eliminating encumbrances on its Bitcoin holdings and retiring roughly 92% of the $120 million debt assumed in the Semler acquisition just 11 days after that deal closed, with plans to retire the remaining $10 million by April 2026. Strive also disclosed that it had acquired 333.89 additional bitcoin at an average price of $89,851, bringing its holdings to 13,131.82 bitcoin and positioning it as the tenth-largest public corporate holder of Bitcoin, with management highlighting a preferred equity–driven capital structure and a reported amplification ratio of 37.2% as central to its strategy of running a “Bitcoin-powered” corporate treasury.

The most recent analyst rating on (ASST) stock is a Sell with a $0.82 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Strive Inc stock, see the ASST Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on ASST Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, ASST is a Neutral.

The score is held down primarily by severe losses and heavy cash burn in the financial statements, suggesting elevated execution and financing risk. Technicals also remain weak with the stock trading below major moving averages and negative MACD. Valuation is only modestly supportive because the negative P/E reflects unprofitable operations and dividend yield is unavailable.
