Alpha Modus Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: $AMOD) shares fell sharply Thursday after the Nasdaq-listed AI company advanced a transaction that would add 3,170 Bitcoin (CRYPTO: $BTC) to its balance sheet, creating a crypto position worth more than $200 million at the company's stated valuation.

AMOD dropped about 29% to $2.72 in morning trading, giving the company an intraday market capitalization of roughly $18.9 million. The reaction put the scale of the proposed Bitcoin position in focus, with the assets being added worth more than ten times the company's equity value at the time.

Alpha Modus said the transaction values Bitcoin at $71,000 per token. Under an agreement signed Aug. 26 with non-U.S. investors, the company would issue roughly 51.6 million Class A shares and warrants covering another 51.6 million shares in exchange for the 3,170 BTC.

Management expects the transaction to materially increase shareholder equity and help address an outstanding Nasdaq listing deficiency. The company said the Bitcoin addition would expand its asset base without changing its operating strategy across artificial intelligence, intellectual property and financial technology.

CEO William Alessi said Alpha Modus had considered a similar strategy when Bitcoin was near record highs but chose not to proceed. "We believed the better decision was to wait," Alessi said, pointing to the current combination of asset value and balance-sheet impact.

The proposed deal comes as public-company Bitcoin treasury strategies face a tougher market backdrop. Alpha Modus is entering that trade with a digital asset position that would dwarf its existing market capitalization, while the share and warrant issuance creates a sizable potential dilution component for investors to weigh.

Completion still depends on the transaction closing, applicable accounting treatment and Nasdaq's determination regarding continued listing compliance.

Alpha Modus Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: AMOD) is currently trading at $2.72 U.S. per share.
