The company’s stock price has been in a negative trend in 2025, indicating that a Bitcoin strategy is not a “panacea,” according to an analyst.
Semler Scientific bought another $25 million in Bitcoin to push its holdings to nearly 5,000 BTC, but investors aren’t buying into the buzz. Even with its treasury strategy and big gains on its crypto investments, the medical technology company’s shares are down 22% year-to-date.
Semler bought 210 Bitcoin (BTC) in the first week of July at an average price of $118,974 per coin, according to a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The company now holds 4,846 Bitcoin, acquired for almost $455 million and now worth $577.9 million.
The shift from medical technology business to the Bitcoin treasury company is backed by a $175 million capital raise through an at-the-market (ATM) offering in April. The company plans to hold 105,000 BTC by 2027. If Semler achieves its goal, it would hold 0.05% of all BTC that would ever be produced.
