Item 8.01 Other Events.
Special Meeting of Stockholders for Proposed Daily Dividend Amendments
On September 24, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Strategy Inc (the “Company”) approved the submission to the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) of a proposal to amend and restate the certificates of designations governing each of the Company’s 10.00% Series A Perpetual Strife Preferred Stock (“STRF”), Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock (“STRC”), 8.00% Series A Perpetual Strike Preferred Stock (“STRK”) and 10.00% Series A Perpetual Stride Preferred Stock (“STRD”).
The proposed amendments would provide for a regular dividend record date on each calendar day, with the related dividend, if declared, payable on the next following business day, as further described in the Company’s preliminary proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 25, 2026. Assuming stockholder approval at the Special Meeting and the filing and effectiveness of the amended and restated certificates of designations, and subject to declaration by the Board or a duly authorized committee, the Company expects to pay the first dividends under the daily schedule (i) for STRC, on November 2, 2026, to holders of record on November 1, 2026, and (ii) for STRF, STRK and STRD, on January 4, 2027, to the applicable holders of record on January 1, 2 and 3, 2027. Thereafter, each calendar day would serve as a record date for the applicable series, with the related dividend payable on the next business day.
The Board has established September 25, 2026, as the record date for the Special Meeting. The Special Meeting is expected to be held virtually on October 28, 2026.
The proposed amendments do not increase or decrease the total amount of regular dividends payable on STRF, STRC, STRK or STRD, change any of STRF’s, STRC’s, STRK’s or STRD’s dividend rates, increase or decrease the Company’s overall dividend payment obligations, or, other than as it pertains to the change in the frequency of dividend payments and other related changes, change the applicable rights and protections associated with each of STRF, STRC, STRK and STRD dividends.
The proposed amendments are subject to stockholder approval and, if approved, would become effective upon the filing and effectiveness of the applicable amended and restated certificates of designations with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.
Additional Information and Where You Can Find It
The Company has filed a preliminary proxy statement with the SEC in connection with the Special Meeting. The Company also intends to file a definitive proxy statement with the SEC for the Special Meeting. Promptly after filing the definitive proxy statement, the Company will mail the definitive proxy statement and a proxy card to each stockholder entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. Investors and securityholders are urged to read these documents, including the definitive proxy statement (and any amendments or supplements thereto), when they become available because they contain important information. You may obtain these documents (when they become available) free of charge on the SEC's website (www.sec.gov) or at the Company’s website (www.strategy.com) or by contacting the Company’s Investor Relations team by email (ir@strategy.com).
No proxy cards are being furnished by this communication. Stockholders may vote their shares only by following the voting instructions set forth in the definitive proxy statement.
Participant Information
The Company and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be “participants” (as defined in Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) in the solicitation of proxies from Strategy’s stockholders in connection with the matters to be considered at the Special Meeting. Information about the compensation of our named executive officers and our non-employee directors is set forth in the section titled “Executive Officer Compensation” and “Director Compensation”, respectively, in the definitive proxy statement for the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders filed with the SEC on April 28, 2026, available here. Information regarding the participants’ holdings of the Company’s securities and their direct or indirect interests, by security holdings or otherwise, can be found in the sections titled
