reserves.

The firm has filed for an at-the-market (ATM) share offering that could bring in as much as $200 million. Most of this funding is set to support its long-term strategy of holding Bitcoin as part of its company reserves.

The company’s CEO, Dr. Georges Karam, described the plan as a cautious and structured approach to strengthening the company’s financial base. Instead of making large, one-time purchases, the ATM setup allows Sequans to gradually issue shares and raise funds based on market conditions.

This latest effort adds to the company’s previous fundraising in July, when it brought in $189 million through a mix of convertible bonds and warrants. Together, Sequans has raised around $376 million in recent months to support its Bitcoin strategy and financial goals.

Under the newly filed program, Sequans will sell American Depositary Shares (ADSs), which are used by non-US companies to let American investors buy their stock more easily.

As of now, Sequans already owns over 3,000 BTC, a total valued at nearly $331 million. That makes it one of the top Bitcoin-holding companies in Europe, second only to Germany’s Bitcoin Group SE. The company’s longer-term goal is to hold 100,000 Bitcoin by the year 2030.

Recently, Bitcoin Indonesia, a local crypto advocacy group, shared its plan to include Bitcoin in Indonesia’s national reserves. What did the group say? Read the full story.

The France-based company’s ADSs rose to $2.01 on Nasdaq after the announcement.

Investors can convert at $2.10 per American depositary share and, if all warrants are exercised, Sequans could net another $57.6 million, with the funds also being earmarked for bitcoin purchases.

CEO Georges Karam said the company sees the asset enhancing its financial resilience and creating long-term value. Sequans designs low-power 4G and 5G modems used in smart meters, asset trackers and industrial sensors.

Swan Bitcoin will source and custody the coins while Northland Capital Markets and B. Riley Securities handled the financing.

The move sees Sequans join a growing list of publicly traded firms adopting bitcoin as their primary treasury reserve asset. A total of 852,309 BTC are currently held by these firms, according to Bitcointreasuries data.

The bulk of those coins are held by Strategy (MSTR), which has 597,325 BTC on its balance sheet. It’s followed by MARA Holdings (MARA) with 50,000 BTC and XXI, with 37,230 BTC.
