The buyback will be conducted through open market transactions, and the repurchased shares will be retired by the company, Trump Media announced on Monday.

“Since Trump Media now has approximately $3 billion on its balance sheet, we have the flexibility to take actions like this which support strong shareholder returns, as we continue exploring further strategic opportunities,” CEO Devin Nunes said.

Trump Media recently raised more than $2 billion from around 50 institutional investors to create a BTC treasury, for which Crypto.com and Anchorage Digital will provide custody services.

DJT shares climbed over 3.8% to $18.50 in early trading on Monday following the buyback announcement.
