Andrew Webley reveals Squarebird acquisition details and a $30 million credit line, with Smarter Web accelerating Bitcoin strategic deployment

BTC-6.21%

On February 28, Andrew Webley disclosed two key initiatives in his latest weekly report: completing the acquisition of Squarebird and securing a $30 million credit line with the United States’ largest compliant CEX. These developments occurred after his attendance at the Strategy World Conference in Las Vegas. The company states that these moves will strengthen cash flow structure and enhance capital flexibility.

Regarding mergers and acquisitions, Webley confirmed that Squarebird is a profitable web design company with stable cash flow and high profit margins. The transaction price is approximately 2.5 times its EBITDA over the past 12 months ending April 2025, with a more conservative estimate close to 3 times, and an expected payback period of three to four years. Notably, the total consideration accounts for just over 1% of the company’s balance sheet but is expected to increase recurring revenue and help share operational costs during market fluctuations. This “low-multiple acquisition + cash flow enhancement” approach is seen as a significant step in Smarter Web Company’s effort to optimize its revenue structure.

On the financing front, Andrew Webley revealed that the company has secured a $30 million credit line to improve operational efficiency and shorten the time between equity financing and fund deployment. He emphasized that this credit line is not intended for long-term Bitcoin purchases but to increase financial flexibility and reserve space for potential strategic opportunities. Additionally, the company raised £26,745 through ATM-style equity financing this week, with an average share price of about £0.36.

During the conference, Webley also engaged with several industry professionals and discussed topics with Michael Saylor, including digital capital, digital credit, and artificial intelligence innovation. He noted that the Bitcoin bond structure faces challenges in the current environment but that the company remains focused on increasing the “long-term value of Bitcoin per share.” Moving forward, management will hold a strategic review meeting to turn the ideas developed this week into concrete action plans.
