DDC Enterprise files $500 million shelf registration for bitcoin strategy

NEW YORK - DDC Enterprise Limited (NYSE:DDC), a $142.5 million market cap company whose stock has surged over 276% in the past six months, filed a $500 million universal shelf registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the company announced Tuesday in a shareholder letter from CEO Norma Chu. According to InvestingPro data, the company’s stock has shown significant momentum despite recent volatility.

The filing follows the company’s recent securing of a capital commitment of up to $528 million, with $53 million already funded by partners including Anson Funds, Animoca Brands, and Kenetic Capital. InvestingPro analysis shows DDC maintains a healthy balance sheet with more cash than debt, positioning it well for future investments.

DDC, which describes itself as a global Asian food platform, has been pursuing a bitcoin accumulation strategy while maintaining 33% year-over-year revenue growth. The company purchased its first 21 bitcoin approximately 60 days ago and has now set targets to acquire 10,000 bitcoin by the end of 2025 and become a top three bitcoin treasury company within three years.

"This filing is not about immediate action—it’s about ensuring we have the flexibility and readiness to access capital markets efficiently when compelling opportunities arise," Chu stated in the letter.

The shelf registration would allow the company to issue securities up to the registered amount when market conditions are favorable, providing capital for potential bitcoin acquisitions and other initiatives.

DDC indicated it plans to use various methods for bitcoin accumulation, including private transactions, derivatives, and yield-enhancing opportunities.

The company’s announcement comes as more corporations explore holding bitcoin as a reserve asset on their balance sheets. DDC continues to operate its core Asian food platform business while pursuing this financial strategy.
