Why Did AEHL Stock Surge Over 150% Today?

• The company revealed $190,000 in realized gains from its "Genius Plan," a dynamic Bitcoin-focused digital asset management strategy.
• Antelope authorized a $95,000 share buyback program set to begin on June 6.
• The CEO said the “Genius Plan” has yielded positive results for the company.

Shares of Antelope Enterprise Holdings (AEHL) rocketed over 150% on Friday after the company announced it had turned modest Bitcoin gains into share buybacks and signaled far bigger crypto bets ahead.

The company revealed $190,000 in realized gains from its "Genius Plan," a dynamic Bitcoin-focused digital asset management strategy launched in February 2026.

Antelope Enterprises said it triggered what it called the "Genius Recycler" mechanism, which demonstrated the firm’s ability to allocate 50% of realized crypto gains to shareholder returns. As a result, the company authorized a $95,000 share repurchase program set to begin June 6, 2026. 

AEHL’s Future Bets With The ‘Genius Plan’

Tingting Zhang, Chief Executive Officer at Antelope Enterprise, stated that the ‘Genius Plan’ has yielded positive results for the company. 

Zhang added that following the recent effectiveness of AEHL's $200 million Form F-3 shelf registration, the company intends to allocate 90% of financing proceeds, potentially $180 million, to further expand the Genius Plan. 

The CEO further added that management is satisfied with the initial validation of the Genius Plan's core logic, and by allocating realized gains to share buybacks, the company plans to improve its capital structure and earnings per share.

Management also stated that it plans to continue advancing subsequent asset allocation and capital management strategies based on market conditions.

What’s The ‘Genius Plan’?

Earlier this year, the company unveiled its new “Genius Plan,” a structured digital asset management strategy focused on Bitcoin. The plan begins with a $1 million one-time Bitcoin purchase, followed by phased accumulation.

When Bitcoin rises 1% above a set cost level, the company will trigger partial sales. Antelope said 50% of realized gains will fund share repurchases.

Antelope Enterprise holds a 51% stake in China-based livestreaming e-commerce service Kylin Cloud.
