Microstrategy, Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR) reported Q3 EPS of $2.06, $1.13 better than the analyst estimate of $0.93. Revenue for the quarter came in at $127.4 million versus the consensus estimate of $117.26 million.

“MicroStrategy delivered one of its stronger quarters in years, with meaningful growth in both product licenses and deferred subscription services revenues and a significant improvement in non-GAAP operating margin. We believe our performance demonstrates growing customer demand for scalable, flexible enterprise-grade solutions that enable better business performance through data-driven decisions,” said Michael J. Saylor, CEO, MicroStrategy Incorporated.

“Our recent decision to make bitcoin our primary treasury reserve asset is the latest example of MicroStrategy’s embrace of virtual technologies. The purchase of $425 million of bitcoin during the quarter offers the possibility of greater return potential for investors than holding such balances in cash and has increased the overall visibility of MicroStrategy in the market. We believe our proactive management of our balance sheet, together with our improved revenue and profitability performance, can serve as catalysts to generate substantial long-term value for our shareholders,” continued Mr. Saylor.
