According to reports, as a new type of “Bitcoin treasury company” focused on accumulating Bitcoin floods into the market, how to value them has become a focal point in the industry. Greg Cipolaro, global head of research at Bitcoin financial firm NYDIG, pointed out in a report on June 6 that the commonly used valuation metric mNAV (market Net Asset Value ratio) is “seriously inadequate” when measuring the relative valuation of these companies. He believes that investors need to conduct a comprehensive analysis combining multiple indicators, including NAV, mNAV calculated based on market capitalization or enterprise value, and equity premiums on NAV, to gain a more complete picture.
The report shows that among the eight tested companies, Semler Scientific (SMLR) and Trump Media (Trump Media: DJT) have the lowest “equity premium to NAV,” at -10% and -16% respectively. Although both companies have an mNAV above 1.1, when Bitcoin rose to $108,500 on Monday, SMLR and DJT’s stock prices remained almost unchanged, while MicroStrategy (MSTR) increased by nearly 5%.

NYDIG: The valuation of Bitcoin treasury companies needs to consider multiple indicators, and the mNAV measurement method has its limitations.
