Metavesco Co-Owner’s Manual
A Message to Our Shareholders
Welcome! As the CEO of Metavesco, Inc. (OTC: MVCO), it is my pleasure to provide you with clarity regarding our guiding principles, operational philosophies, and long-term objectives. Inspired by Warren Buffett, whose philosophies greatly influenced my approach to business and investor relations, this Co-Owner’s Manual aims to foster a deep, transparent partnership between Metavesco and our shareholders.
Our Fundamental Principles
- We View Shareholders as Co-Owners
Metavesco may be structured as a corporation, but we operate with the mindset as if we were a collective of co-owners. We see our shareholders not as distant investors but as co-owners, and in fact, that is how I refer to shareholders, as co-owners. Our management team acts as fiduciaries, entrusted with your capital, and committed to aligning our long-term interests directly with yours.
- Long-term Perspective with Startup Agility
While we encourage shareholders to view their stake in Metavesco as a long-term investment, we recognize our position as a startup taking substantial risks to capture significant opportunities. Our decisions focus on achieving rapid growth in profit per share, accepting greater volatility and uncertainty as part of our aggressive growth strategy.
- Aligned Financial Interests
Our management team’s financial well-being is directly linked to Metavesco’s performance and the performance of its subsidiaries. The majority of my personal equity holdings is invested in Metavesco stock. I have many family members and friends that have invested in Metavesco stock. Simply put, we drink our own whiskey, ensuring complete alignment of interests between shareholders and management.
- Building in Public
Transparency is paramount. I have chosen to build Metavesco openly and publicly, sharing our journey, decisions, and outcomes in near real-time. I post frequent updates on social media and encourage all co-owners to follow my account on X.com. You will always receive candid reports highlighting both successes and challenges. Given our startup nature, you can expect frequent updates as we navigate both expected and unforeseen developments, fostering trust through ongoing transparency.
- Aggressive, High-Impact Capital Allocation
Metavesco seeks opportunities with exponential growth potential. We deploy capital into ventures with the clear understanding that some investments may not succeed. We do not need every investment to be successful—those that scale significantly will far outweigh those that fail. Our approach to acquisitions and startups involves immediate operational stabilization, efficiency improvements, and aggressive top-line revenue growth. Our belief is that by relentlessly driving revenue and carefully managing operations, profitability will naturally follow.
- Thoughtful Capital Raising and Leverage
As a publicly traded company, we utilize various forms of capital thoughtfully—including equity and debt—always mindful of shareholder interests. We are particularly sensitive to dilution, especially given the reputation of the OTC issuers. When raising capital through stock offerings, we ensure that the funds are deployed strategically into high-potential business opportunities designed to create substantial, long-term value for co-owners. I currently do not draw a salary, and I have committed to only taking compensation once the company achieves sustained positive cash flow.
- Long-Term Bitcoin Treasury Strategy
Our goal is to become a modern holding company with a bitcoin-denominated balance sheet—converting operational success into long-term digital value storage.
- Owner-oriented Mindset
We conduct ourselves as stewards of your capital, employing meticulous care and integrity. We commit to managing Metavesco with the same prudence and diligence we would apply to our personal finances.
- Direct and Simple Structure
We prefer simple, understandable businesses. Complexity can cloud judgment and obscure true economic performance. We pursue clarity in our operations, investments, and communications.
How We Measure Success
Our fundamental economic goal is to maximize Metavesco’s profit per share over the long term. This can only be achieved by exponentially growing our top-line revenue combined with prudent management of operations within our subsidiaries. As a startup, we believe that significant revenue growth is not only achievable but essential, providing the scale necessary to reach profitability. We focus intensely on driving robust revenue growth, confident that disciplined operational management will subsequently ensure healthy and sustainable profits.
Managing Metavesco and Governance
Metavesco operates with a lean corporate structure. Our subsidiary managers are empowered with significant autonomy, allowing them to operate effectively and responsively. Headquarters is primarily concerned with capital allocation, investor relations, strategic direction, back-office support, and supporting our managers.
Our approach attracts capable, high-performance leaders who value autonomy and accountability. This decentralized model fosters innovation, efficiency, and responsiveness across our businesses.
I am currently the only board member and the controlling shareholder. This is not expected to change in the early years. We want to go fast. Going fast means you may break things. Independent board members don’t like it when things get broken. There will come a time when an expanded, independent board is prudent and when that time comes we will fill the board with experienced business leaders that can contribute to our success.
On Acquisitions and Investments
We approach acquisitions cautiously, seeking opportunities to buy entire businesses or assets in industries we understand well, at fair prices. Generally, we seek to employ a buy and build strategy. Our acquisitions must demonstrate a high probability of exponential growth and scalability once we have necessary systems and capital in place.
A Commitment to the OTC Ecosystem
Metavesco is proudly committed to the long-term strength of the OTC market and the financial wellbeing of its individual retail participants. Unlike many OTC companies that will claim intentions of uplisting to larger exchanges, we have no plans to uplist at all and are here to build in the OTC for the long haul. We believe the OTC can be a thriving ecosystem for innovation, entrepreneurship, and investor opportunity—if companies lead with transparency, discipline, and integrity.
We reject the dilution-driven, pump-and-dump culture that too often plagues this market. Our focus is on building tangible, revenue-generating businesses that create lasting value for co-owners. When we raise capital, we put that capital directly to work—buying, building, and scaling real businesses with strong cash flow potential. As a large shareholder myself, I am just as sensitive to dilution as any investor. We do not take capital lightly, and we do not raise money without a plan to convert it into value.
Metavesco aims to set a new standard for what an OTC-traded company can be. Through operational excellence, aggressive but thoughtful capital deployment, and open communication with shareholders, we intend to become a beacon of what’s possible on the OTC, from the ground up. We will continue to communicate broadly and evenly with all investors, maintaining transparency and avoiding selective disclosures. We want long-term shareholders who believe in the mission and want to see them rewarded immensely for that belief.
Final Thoughts
Metavesco isn’t just another OTC ticker. It’s a platform for building, scaling, and compounding real-world value—with our co-owners at the center of it all.
The principles outlined above serve as the foundation upon which Metavesco stands. It is my sincere hope that this manual clarifies our corporate philosophy and reinforces your confidence in our shared future.
Thank you for your trust and partnership.
Warm regards,
Ryan Schadel
CEO, Metavesco, Inc.
