Metaplanet Inc. has successfully executed the early redemption and complete repayment of its 9th Series of Ordinary Bonds.
The total repayment amount is ¥2 billion ($13.5 million), as the company shared on April 7.
Originally scheduled to mature in September 2025, these bonds were issued to EVO FUND on March 18 without accruing interest. The company had previously redeemed ¥1.5 billion of the bonds on March 27, funded by proceeds from exercising stock acquisition rights allocated through third-party allotments.
Formerly known as Red Planet Japan, Metaplanet Inc. has transitioned to become a Bitcoin treasury firm, concentrating on accumulating and managing Bitcoin (BTC) as its primary asset and is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.
The remaining balance of ¥500 million was settled on April 4, successfully concluding the bond issuance. Metaplanet noted that the funds for the redemption came from EVO FUND’s payment related to the exercise of the company’s 13th to 17th series of stock acquisition rights.
Since these bonds were interest-free, the company anticipates that their financial implications for its 2025 results will be limited.

Metaplanet aims to hold 21,000 BTC by 2026, with a goal of exceeding 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025, positioning itself as the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin in Asia.
