The business itself tells a different story. Stryker just crossed $25 billion in annual revenue for the first time, posting 11.4% revenue growth in Q4 2025 and beating earnings estimates in all four quarters of 2025. Adjusted operating margins expanded at least 100 basis points for the second consecutive year. Free cash flow grew to $4.28 billion, up nearly 23% year over year. These are not the numbers of a company in distress.
The company's Q4 2025 earnings, filed on February 5, 2026, showed a $12.44 billion net loss, driven by a $17.44 billion unrealized loss on digital assets. Shockingly, Strategy holds 713,502 bitcoins valued at $59.75 billion against a cost basis of $54.26 billion, leaving the company essentially underwater on its massive bet.
