The fresh buys move Semler to the 14th-largest bitcoin treasury among publicly-traded companies, just above GameStop’s 4,710 BTC stash.

Semler reported a year-to-date Bitcoin Yield of 30.3%, a figure it highlights as a key performance indicator for investors. Bitcoin Yield reflects the growth of bitcoin per share, rather than yield earned on its BTC.

The recent purchases were funded through proceeds from an at-the-market (ATM) equity offering, which has now raised $175 million since April.

Semler shares are flat in premarket action, with bitcoin trading modestly lower to $117,900.
