Green Minerals AS Signs NOK 250 Million Structured Financing Agreement aimed at its Bitcoin Treasury strategy
2.7.2025 06:08:41 CEST | Green Minerals AS | Inside information
Oslo, Norway - 02 July 2025 - Green Minerals AS ("Green Minerals" or the
"Company"), a pioneer in deep sea mining and sustainable minerals extraction
with growing exposure to Bitcoin through its Bitcoin Treasury strategy, is
pleased to announce that it has entered into a structured financing agreement
with global investment group LDA Capital ("LDA") for a total commitment of NOK
250 million over a 12-month period.
Under the agreement, LDA has granted Green Minerals a put option, allowing the
Company to issue new shares on a flexible basis in accordance with market
conditions. This ATM structure provides Green Minerals with the agility to draw
capital as needed, optimizing shareholder value while mitigating unnecessary
dilution.
In addition, Green Minerals will grant LDA a call option, entitling LDA to
subscribe for up to 1% of the Company's share capital at NOK 6,95 per share.
This option is exercisable for a period of 12 months.
"In a dynamic market environment, flexibility and staying power is key," said
Ståle Rodahl, Executive Chairman of Green Minerals. "This facility gives us a
prudent and strategic mechanism to fund growth, while aligning with our
long-term goal to increase Bitcoin per share (BTC/share) by monitoring both
digital asset trends and equity market interest."
Strategic Capital for a New Era of Treasury Management
LDA Capital has a proven track record of over $11 billion deployed across
traditional capital markets and $400 million in Web3 investments. Their
flexible, equity and token-linked financing structures are tailored to support
companies like GEM that are pioneering digital asset treasury strategies.
Through this partnership, GEM gains access not only to capital but also to LDA's
global network of TradFi and Web 3.0 portfolio companies, crypto-native advisors
and strategic investors-positioning GEM to scale responsibly and credibly in a
rapidly evolving market - the Digital Assets treasury strategy.
"This partnership underscores LDA's commitment to innovative and high-conviction
opportunities," said Warren Baker, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at LDA
Capital. "We're proud to back Green Minerals as they pioneer sustainable value
creation at the intersection of natural resources and digital assets."
Green Minerals will only access the facility in tranches, subject to prevailing
market conditions, and retain full discretion over the timing and amount of each
drawdown.
The Company will update the market on any further financing arrangements if and
when additional agreements are reached.
