MicroStrategy could boost its earnings by over $3 billion if it chooses to adopt new accounting rules, according to Benchmark.

According to a Wednesday investment note by Benchmark, if MicroStrategy adopted new accounting rules, the impact on its earnings per share would be massive. The investment banking firm added that adopting the latest accounting standards means MicroStrategy could qualify for inclusion in the S&P 500.

Benchmark estimates that if MicroStrategy elects for early adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's new ASU 2023-08 standard, it could report a gain of more than $300 per share during 1Q24.According to the Benchmark research note, a company must report positive earnings in its most recent quarter to be considered for inclusion in the S&P 500 by the committee that runs the index.

Benchmark stated that MicroStrategy currently employs the existing FASB rule ASC 350. But, as a result, the firm's unadjusted earnings have been adversely affected during quarters when the value of its bitcoin holdings decreased. "This has required the company to account for its bitcoin holdings as indefinite-lived intangible assets, and to treat any decline in their carrying value during a given quarter due to a drop in bitcoin’s price as an impairment loss," Benchmark added.
