STRCStretchRank 2

Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock

Yield at declared rate
12.72%

Variable-rate perpetual designed to trade near $100, with dividends paid semi-monthly. Ranks junior only to STRF and senior to STRK and STRD. The rate resets periodically — it launched at 9% (Aug 2025) and has been reset upward since — so the figure shown is the latest declared rate, not a fixed promise. Confirm the current declared rate before relying on it.

Reading these. Current yield = annual dividend (coupon × $100 stated value) ÷ live market price, so a price above par lowers the yield you actually receive. STRC is variable, so its rate can reset — treat its coupon as the latest declared rate, not a fixed promise. Seniority defines who gets paid first in a wind-down.
