IP Strategy Holdings, Inc. announced that its board has authorized a share repurchase program allowing the company to buy back up to 1 million shares of common stock through December 31, 2026. As of February 18, 2026, the company had 10,259,226 shares outstanding, so full execution would retire nearly 10% of its shares.
The company holds 53.2 million $IP tokens tied to the Story blockchain and is shifting validator operations from self-custody to third-party custody, which it expects will increase related yield to 10% or more annually for 2026. Management links the buyback, expected higher validator yield, and previously announced 2026 cost-reduction plans to strong confidence in its long-term strategy.
IP Strategy Holdings, Inc., formerly Heritage Distilling Holding Company, Inc., has amended its certificate of incorporation and bylaws to change its corporate name to IP Strategy Holdings, Inc., effective February 18, 2026 at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time. The company’s common stock will continue trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol IPST, and the CUSIP number will remain the same.
In an accompanying press release, the company explains that the new name highlights a strategic focus on programmable intellectual property and AI-native data networks, including its $IP token treasury and validator operations within the Story network ecosystem. The company describes itself as the first Nasdaq-listed business to hold $IP tokens as a primary reserve asset and to operate a validator for Story Protocol, aiming to give public investors exposure to what it calls the $80 trillion programmable intellectual property economy.

Heritage Distilling Holding Company Inc., doing business as IP Strategy, furnished an update on its $IP validator business. On January 8, 2026, the company issued a press release outlining $IP validator performance metrics for the periods from December 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025 and from September 18, 2025, the launch date of the company’s $IP validators, to December 31, 2025.
The press release also highlights the growth of the Story Network ecosystem. This information, furnished under Regulation FD as Item 7.01 of a Form 8-K, is provided in Exhibit 99.1 and is not deemed “filed” for liability purposes under the Exchange Act.
Heritage Distilling Holding Company, Inc. is registering 21,092,156 shares of common stock for resale by existing stockholders. These consist of 7,925,128 currently outstanding shares, 13,042,028 shares issuable from outstanding warrants (including 13,019,528 with a $0.20 or lower exercise price), and 125,000 shares from restricted stock units. The company is not selling shares itself and will only receive cash if warrants are exercised.
Its stock trades on Nasdaq under the symbol IPST, last reported at $6.28 per share on December 11, 2025. Heritage now operates two segments: an IP Management Infrastructure business built around holding and staking $IP Tokens on the Story Network, and its traditional craft spirits business. A recent $223.8 million private placement of pre-funded warrants funded the acquisition of 53.2 million $IP Tokens and the launch of a validator and staking operation, which has already produced large reported gains but also introduces significant earnings volatility tied to token prices.
As of November 25, 2025, 9,559,321 common shares were outstanding, and 22,726,349 would be outstanding if all warrants and RSUs in this filing are exercised or settled. The prospectus highlights extensive risks, including sustained operating losses in prior periods, heavy reliance on a highly volatile digital asset, complex tax and regulatory exposure around cryptocurrencies, internal control weaknesses previously identified by auditors, and ongoing competition and operational challenges in the craft spirits business.
