Exhibit 99.1
Volcon Initiates Strategic Bitcoin Treasury Program and Expands Share Repurchase Authorization to $100 Million
Volcon Now Holds Over 3,183 BTC
AUSTIN, Texas – July 25, 2025 - Volcon, Inc. (NASDAQ: VLCN) (the “Company,” “Volcon” or “Empery Digital”) today announced that as of July 25th at 8:00am ET, the Company holds 3,183.37 BTC acquired for an aggregate purchase price of ~$375 million, reflecting an average purchase price of $117,697 per BTC. The Company has also sold various short-term put contracts giving the Company the opportunity to potentially buy additional BTC at $115,000, $116,000 and $117,000 while collecting option premium to reduce the cost of BTC. This aligns well with the Company’s continued BTC acquisition strategy.
“Our treasury strategy reflects our conviction in Bitcoin as a durable, long-term store of value and a powerful treasury reserve asset,” said Ryan Lane, Co-CEO of Volcon. “As a continuous aggregator of BTC, we will leverage our team’s decades of hedge fund experience to implement creative ways to lower the effective purchase price of BTC as we look to offer investors the most efficient, least dilutive, and lowest-cost means of gaining exposure to Bitcoin through the public equity market treasury structure.”
Additionally, the Company announced that its board of directors has authorized an increase in the current stock repurchase program. Volcon is now authorized to repurchase up to $100 million of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.00001, over the next 24 months. This repurchase program enables the Company the flexibility to support the NAV per share and potentially add BTC per share at share prices below NAV.
The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by management at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, general market and economic conditions and applicable legal requirements. The Company’s board of directors will review the implementation of the share repurchase program periodically and may modify, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program as it shall deem necessary or desirable. The Company expects to fund any repurchases out of its existing cash balance.
About Volcon
Effective as of July 17, 2025, the Company adopted a bitcoin treasury strategy with the goal of becoming a leading, low cost, capital efficient, globally trusted aggregator of Bitcoin. Volcon was founded as the first all-electric power sports company sourcing high-quality and sustainable electric vehicles for the outdoor community. Volcon electric vehicles are the future of off-roading, not only because of their environmental benefits but also because of their near-silent operation, which allows for a more immersive outdoor experience.
