Company Adopts Bitcoin as Corporate Hurdle Rate
Mogo Inc. (“Mogo” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MOGO; TSX: MOGO), a leading Canadian digital wealth and lending platform, today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the allocation of up to $50 million to Bitcoin as part of the Company’s long-term capital preservation and product innovation strategy. The move marks a significant step in Mogo’s strategic alignment with Bitcoin, integrating it across treasury policy and its core operating platform.
Mogo has been at the forefront of digital asset innovation for nearly a decade. In 2018, it launched Canada’s first Bitcoin account, and in 2020, it became the third US-listed company to add Bitcoin to its balance sheet, following MicroStrategy and Block, and ahead of Tesla. Mogo also played a key role in the formation of Canada’s largest independent crypto platform through the 2023 merger of Coinsquare and WonderFi, which recently announced it has entered into an agreement to be acquired by Robinhood.
“Building on our history and experience in crypto, we’re making a long-term strategic commitment to Bitcoin, backed by deep conviction and the flexibility to build a meaningful Bitcoin reserve that aligns with our capital priorities and market outlook,” said Greg Feller, President & Co-Founder of Mogo. “This allocation gives us the flexibility to build a meaningful position over time as part of a disciplined, multi-year strategy.”
