VivoPower International PLC announced on August 11, 2025, further details regarding its strategic acquisition of Ripple Labs shares. The company has budgeted to purchase an initial US$100 million of privately held Ripple shares, which translates into an underlying 211 million XRP token exposure with a current market value of US$696 million.
VivoPower will hold full and direct legal title of the purchased Ripple shares and will be recorded as a shareholder directly on Ripple’s cap table. The company explicitly stated it will not purchase Ripple shares held in special-purpose vehicle structures that embed additional fees and costs.
To ensure transparency and governance, an independent auditor will conduct quarterly reviews of VivoPower’s Ripple shareholdings. This strategy aims to optimize for yield maximization while minimizing the weighted average cost of XRP acquired, reinforcing VivoPower's objective of building a sustainable long-term treasury model.
