Overview
What the business is, what it costs, and how it reads on four questions.
Market dataSEC filingComputed
Four questions, at a glance
Quality
Return on invested capital, after tax
n/mComputed
From the FY2025 filing
Why n/m
Invested capital is equity plus debt less cash. A financial company's debt and cash are operating positions, so returns measured against that base are not comparable to an operating business.
Price to earnings is 188.84x at the close of 2026-10-15 on FY2025 figures; the lines are 15.00x (Graham's defensive ceiling) and, by market convention, 10.00x, 25.00x and 40.00x, and this sits above the highest.
Today, against the Asset Management industry (57 companies), 188.84x sits at the 93rd percentile; the middle half of that group runs from 8.66x to 42.00x.
Is it good
Operating margin for BTC Development Corp. Class A Ordinary Shares in FY2025: n/a. No revenue line is filed for this year, so a margin is not computed.
Is it safe
Current ratio was 22.75 in FY2025, in the band labelled "At or above Graham's requirement" (2.00 and above), on lines anchored on Graham's defensive-investor criteria, suggesting short-term assets well above short-term obligations.
Today, against the Financial Services sector (274 companies), 22.75 sits at the 96th percentile; the middle half of that group runs from 0.97 to 5.71.

Invested capital is equity plus debt less cash. A financial company's debt and cash are operating positions, so returns measured against that base are not comparable to an operating business.
Book equity is zero or negative. Return on equity computed over it flips sign and can read as a strong positive on a loss-making company, so we will not show a number.

Altman's Z-Score was estimated on manufacturers and explicitly excludes financial firms. A financial company scores in the distress zone by construction, so the number would be wrong rather than alarming. Not applicable to financials.

The figures are computed from the accounts for fiscal 2025, the newest full year on file. 2 filed fiscal years on record, FY2024 to FY2025, from SEC EDGAR. Prices as of Oct 15, 2026. Ratios recomputed Oct 15, 2026. Two facts, because a recompute is not a fresh quote.
The year and the filing date name the statement each figure’s accounts are read from, and they stand even where the figure itself could not be computed: the line beneath a blank says what that statement did not carry. A figure’s name opens its formula and the filings behind it; a statement that names no SEC filing has no filing date, and reads n/a.
