TORONTO, Dec. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Matador Technologies Inc. (“Matador” or the “Company”), the publicly traded Bitcoin ecosystem company, is pleased to announce that it has obtained receipt for its final short form base shelf prospectus (the “Shelf Prospectus”) from the Ontario Securities Commission.

The Shelf Prospectus qualifies the distribution of up to CAD $80 million of common shares, warrants, subscription receipts, debt securities, or units during the 25-month effective period. This milestone reinforces Matador's capital markets strategy, providing the agility required to execute its long-term objective of maximizing Bitcoin per share (“BPS”).

Executing the Bitcoin-First Strategy

The finalization of the Shelf Prospectus complements the Company’s recently closed USD $100 million secured convertible note facility with ATW Partners. Together, these financial instruments provide Matador with the flexibility to continue its accelerated Bitcoin accumulation strategy.

Matador has demonstrated a commitment to this strategy, having already increased its Bitcoin holdings by approximately 767% from December 10, 2024 to December 22, 2025. The CAD $80 million Shelf Prospectus is intended to provide the Company with potential access to capital that could be used for further Bitcoin purchases to meet its 2026 target of 1,000 bitcoin, as well as for general corporate purposes.

Deven Soni, Chief Executive Officer “Obtaining the receipt for our CAD $80 million base shelf prospectus is a critical step in maturing our capital structure. Along with our institutional infrastructure partnerships and existing credit facilities, this shelf prospectus gives us the speed and flexibility to access capital when it is most advantageous. We remain focused on increasing Bitcoin per share over time and continue to target a treasury balance of 1,000 bitcoin by the end of 2026.”

Mark Moss, Chief Visionary Officer “Bitcoin is a volatile asset, and navigating its cycles requires a long-term view and the ability to deploy capital in measured steps. This prospectus ensures that Matador is positioned to act decisively to grow our treasury from our current position of approximately 175 bitcoin toward our targets, supporting our mandate to accumulate scarce assets for our shareholders.”

Matador may, from time to time, allocate available capital toward Bitcoin purchases or other corporate purposes, depending on market conditions, regulatory requirements, the Company’s financial position and other factors. There can be no assurance as to the amount or timing of any future Bitcoin purchases or other capital allocation decisions.
