TON Strategy Company Authorizes $250M Stock Repurchase Following Nasdaq Ticker Change

Enterprise specializing in digital asset treasury management, with a focus on holding Toncoin (TON), TON Strategy Company announced that its Board of Directors has given unanimous approval for a share buyback initiative valued at up to $250 million. The program permits the repurchase of common stock through open market transactions or alternative methods, subject to relevant securities regulations

The quantity, timing, and pricing of the repurchases will be influenced by market dynamics, liquidity, stock performance, and other relevant considerations. The authorization does not require the company to repurchase a predetermined number of shares.

Manuel Stotz, Executive Chairman of the Company, said that they were committed to a disciplined capital allocation strategy and intended to use the balance sheet to enhance shareholder value by increasing NAV per share. He explained that, subject to market conditions and other factors, the company might consider issuing stock to buy TON if the stock traded at a premium to NAV, while it might consider repurchasing its own stock if it traded at a discount to NAV. He added that the repurchase program provided the company with a tool to achieve this.

Previously operating under the name Verb Technology Company, TON Strategy Company commenced trading under the ticker symbol TONX on the Nasdaq Capital Market on September 2nd, following its corporate renaming. This change represented another step in the organization’s transition toward a digital asset treasury model centered on TON. The company’s strategy involves accumulating TON while offering public market investors exposure to the development and security of the TON ecosystem

TON functions as the only blockchain integrated at scale within a global social platform, supporting wallets, payments, and applications on Telegram. It also operates as a developer framework, with an expanding community creating applications, services, and games that leverage Telegram’s reach of more than one billion monthly active users. This integration is regarded as positioning TON as a notable project at the intersection of blockchain technology and social media, while the company aligns itself as an infrastructure participant within this network.

Alongside this digital asset treasury strategy, the company continues to operate established business divisions, including MARKET.live, a multi-vendor livestream shopping platform, and LyveCom, a social commerce technology provider that uses AI to enable brands and retailers to deliver livestream shopping experiences across multiple digital channels
