Strive renews SATA’s 13% dividend, offering no new capital-stack surprise

Strive is now primarily a Bitcoin treasury company, using its preferred-stock and common-equity capital structure to fund Bitcoin accumulation and related asset-management ambitions. This filing preserves the existing income proposition rather than changing the story. The board kept SATA’s regular dividend rate at 13.00% and declared the same rate for October. 〔0〕

The cash-return terms are clear, but not newly favorable. Holders are scheduled to receive $0.0516 per share on each business day in October, totaling $1.0836 for the month. The 13% rate had already been established earlier in 2026, so this is a scheduled continuation rather than a fresh increase or a change in funding strategy.

The tax disclosure reinforces the preferred stock’s income structure, not its operating economics. Strive says it has no accumulated earnings and profits and does not expect current earnings and profits in the foreseeable future, meaning distributions generally may be treated as return of capital for U.S. investors rather than ordinary dividends. 〔1〕

Bottom line: This confirms October’s SATA payout at the already-known 13% rate. It supports continuity for preferred holders but does not advance Strive’s Bitcoin treasury strategy or materially reset expectations.
