The company allocated 17,241,382 new shares at a price of SEK 0.290 per share, in line with the volume-weighted average price of its stock as of July 23. This strategic round attracted a select group of investors, including existing shareholders, with Caldas Capital—led by seasoned crypto investor João Caldas—emerging as the largest participant.

According to the company, the capital will be channeled into initiatives aligned with its newly launched Digital Assets division. This division, now the third pillar of Refine’s operations, positions Bitcoin as a long-term store of value and an integral part of the company’s financial resilience strategy.
Chief Executive Officer David Wallinder described the capital raise as a pivotal step in delivering on Refine’s crypto-focused roadmap. He emphasized that strategic Bitcoin accumulation will serve both as a financial buffer and as a lever for enhancing shareholder value.
To accelerate execution, the board chose a directed share issue over a rights offering. The decision was based on the need for speed in securing capital, minimizing underwriting costs, and seizing opportunities in the fast-moving Bitcoin market. A slower alternative, they argued, could have undermined the company’s competitiveness in the treasury crypto space.
With the share issue completed, Refine’s outstanding shares have increased from 121.9 million to 139.1 million, raising the company’s share capital to SEK 13.91 million. This issuance introduces a dilution of approximately 12.39% for existing shareholders.
Meanwhile, in a parallel move that underscores growing corporate interest in Bitcoin, Quantum Solutions Co. has unveiled a long-term strategy to acquire up to 3,000 BTC within the next 12 months. The initiative will begin with an initial $10 million investment, backed by Hong Kong-based Integrated Asset Management (Asia) Limited, signaling another bold step toward institutional crypto adoption.
