Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, also introduced new performance metrics when it reported fourth-quarter earnings after the market closed on Wednesday. The Tysons Corner, Virginia-based company reported a loss of $3.03 per share. It did not adopt Financial Stability Accounting Board (FASB) rules, which would have avoided a $1 billion impairment loss. Those will be adopted this quarter, the company said.
