Business Summary

Bit Digital, Inc. (BTBT) operates as a strategic asset company with a dual focus on Ethereum (ETH)-native treasury and staking strategies, alongside a significant engagement in the high-performance computing (HPC) business through its majority equity stake in WhiteFiber Inc. . The company's core business model involves generating yield through ETH staking and network participation, treating ETH as a productive economic infrastructure . Concurrently, through WhiteFiber, it provides AI compute and data center infrastructure, offering scalable energy and dense capacity for AI and HPC workloads . The company's revenue streams are a mix of digital asset mining, cloud services, colocation services, and ETH staking .

In its digital asset business, Bit Digital primarily engages in ETH staking operations and, historically, digital asset mining . The company initiated a strategic transition in June 2025 to become a pure-play ETH staking and treasury company, involving the conversion of its Bitcoin (BTC) holdings into ETH and a strategic alternatives process for its Bitcoin mining operations, expected to result in a sale or wind-down with proceeds redeployed into ETH . As of December 31, 2025, Bit Digital held over 150,000 ETH, with the majority staked to generate protocol-native rewards . The company's ETH staking operations involve delegating ETH to independent third-party validators, specifically Figment, since January 2024 . As of December 31, 2025, approximately 138,263 ETH were actively staked through Figment, generating cumulative staking rewards of approximately 2,442.9 ETH, of which 2,366.8 ETH had been paid and 76.1 ETH remained pending . The company also briefly resumed liquid staking activities with Liquid Collective protocol in July 2025 with 5,120 ETH, ceasing these activities in October 2025 .

The HPC business, operated by WhiteFiber, focuses on owning and developing HPC data centers and providing cloud-based HPC GPU services for AI application and machine learning (ML) developers . WhiteFiber's business model integrates its data center infrastructure and cloud services to offer scalable, high-performance computing solutions, emphasizing Tier-3 data centers with N+1 redundancy, advanced cooling, and robust bandwidth . As of December 31, 2025, WhiteFiber's operational data centers included MTL-1 and MTL-3 in Quebec, Canada, and NC-1 in North Carolina, USA . WhiteFiber's cloud services support generative AI workstreams, particularly training and inference, leveraging partnerships with NVIDIA, SuperMicro, Dell, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and QCT .

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, total revenues increased to $113,560,320 from $108,050,720 in the prior year, representing a $5,509,600 increase. Cloud services revenue grew by $23.0 million , or 50.4% , to $68.8 million in 2025 from $45.7 million in 2024. Colocation services revenue increased from $1.4 million in 2024 to $8.9 million in 2025, a $7,552,575 increase. ETH staking revenue saw a significant increase of $5,226,394 , or 276.1% , reaching $7,046,270 in 2025 from $1,819,876 in 2024. Conversely, digital asset mining revenue decreased by $31.3 million , or 53.4% , to $27.3 million in 2025 from $58.6 million in 2024, primarily due to 679.2 fewer bitcoins generated . The company reported a net loss of $84,929,658 in 2025, a substantial change from the net income of $28,305,810 in 2024. Basic and diluted loss per share was $0.31 for 2025, compared to basic EPS of $0.20 and diluted EPS of $0.19 in 2024. Cash and cash equivalents increased to $118,356,299 as of December 31, 2025, from $95,201,335 as of December 31, 2024. Total digital assets held increased by $254.4 million to $415,734,409 as of December 31, 2025, from $161,377,344 as of December 31, 2024. The company also reported a convertible note payable, net, of $110,290,945 and a derivative liability of $19,260,000 as of December 31, 2025.

Key operational developments during 2025 included the strategic transition to a pure-play ETH staking and treasury company, involving the winding down of Bitcoin mining operations . WhiteFiber completed its initial public offering (IPO) on August 8, 2025, raising approximately $159.4 million in gross proceeds, with an additional $23.9 million from the underwriters' over-allotment option exercise . Bit Digital retained approximately 71.5% of WhiteFiber's issued and outstanding ordinary shares post-IPO . WhiteFiber also acquired Enovum Data Centers Corp on October 11, 2024, which included the MTL-1 data center, and subsequently acquired the real estate for MTL-2 on December 27, 2024, and entered into a lease-to-own structure for MTL-3 in April 2025, with the purchase option exercised in December 2025 . A significant commercial milestone for WhiteFiber's high-density data center platform was the services agreement with Nscale Services US Inc. and Nscale Global Holdings Limited in November 2025, representing approximately $865 million in total contracted revenue over a 10-year term .

Business Outlook

Management has not provided specific revenue, margin, or EPS guidance for the upcoming period in the filing.

WhiteFiber is aggressively pursuing its data center development pipeline, intending to achieve an estimated 76 MW (gross) of total data center capacity by the end of the fourth quarter of 2026 . This target is supported by assets including its MTL-2, MTL-3, and NC-1 facilities . The company also has a pipeline of potential data center projects representing approximately 1,500 MW (gross) under management review, prioritizing projects backed by customer lease commitments . The MTL-3 facility, developed as a 7 MW (gross) Tier-3 data center , commenced billing Cerebras as of November 1, 2025, for CAD 1.4 million (approximately 979 thousand USD) monthly over a five-year contract . Billing for the first 20 MW phase of the Nscale agreement at the NC-1 facility is expected to commence in June 2026 , contributing revenue from the second quarter of 2026 . WhiteFiber also plans to expand its cloud services offering by leasing additional capacity, with capacity leases in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, commencing in February 2026 .

Operationally, Bit Digital intends to maintain a flexible cost structure aligned with services activity and treasury scale . The company is monitoring protocol upgrades on Ethereum's roadmap, growth in L2 activity, institutional adoption trends, availability of regulated custodial services, and evolving U.S. and non-U.S. regulatory frameworks applicable to digital assets and staking . WhiteFiber's data center team aims to bring new sites online on an accelerated timeline, with an average build time for retrofits intended to be approximately six months from commencement of construction . WhiteFiber also plans to undertake heat repurposing projects to enhance sustainability of certain data center projects .

Regarding capital allocation, WhiteFiber completed a private offering of $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.500% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 on January 26, 2026. Approximately $120.0 million of the net proceeds from the Notes offering were used to pay the cost of a zero-strike call option transaction . The remaining net proceeds are expected to be used primarily for data center expansion, including funding the lease or purchase of additional properties, constructing facilities, entering energy service agreements, purchasing related equipment, and for potential acquisitions, partnerships, and joint ventures, as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes . WhiteFiber will require additional project financing, such as construction loans, to fully accomplish these initiatives and may elect to raise additional capital opportunistically . On March 25, 2026, WhiteFiber Iceland ehf. entered into a secured term loan facility agreement with Landsbankinn hf for up to $20 million , with borrowings bearing interest at a floating rate of three-month CME Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 4.25% per annum . The Board of Directors declared eight (8%) percent ($800,000) dividends on the preference shares to Geney Development Ltd. for the year ended December 31, 2025 .

Management explicitly flagged several structural headwinds and execution risks. The company's ETH Treasury Strategy faces risks such as potential premium collapse if share prices fall below NAV, liquidity and macro sensitivity leading to high-beta asset behavior, and dilution fatigue from repeated capital raises . WhiteFiber's business depends on the demand for data centers, making it susceptible to general economic slowdowns and adverse developments in the data center, Internet, AI, and broader technology industries . Advancements in AI, such as those demonstrated by DeepSeek, may allow for complex AI operations with significantly less computing power, potentially reducing demand for specialized computing and HPC data center services . WhiteFiber also faces significant customer concentration risk, with its Initial Customer accounting for approximately 70.7% of cloud services revenue during the 12 months ended December 31, 2025 , and a limited number of customers expected to represent a significant portion of cloud services revenue in 2026 . The company is also vulnerable to supply chain disruptions for critical infrastructure components and specialized equipment, which could delay project timelines and increase costs . Geopolitical uncertainty, including changes in tariffs or import restrictions, particularly between the U.S., Mexico, and Canada, could increase costs for construction materials, specialized equipment, and labor, potentially delaying deployments and reducing profitability .

Risk Factors

The company faces material risks including volatility in ETH and BTC prices, which can significantly affect revenues, gross margins, and liquidity . Regulatory and legal uncertainties surrounding digital assets are extensive and evolving, with potential for increased government oversight, conflicting regulations, and investigations, particularly concerning the classification of digital assets as securities and compliance with the Investment Company Act of 1940 . Operational and custody risks include potential slashing, lock-ups, liquidity, and counterparty risks in ETH staking, as well as smart contract vulnerabilities and market structure issues that could lead to losses or business interruption . WhiteFiber's HPC business is exposed to the capital-intensive nature of the data center industry, requiring significant investment and reliance on capital markets, making it vulnerable to market disruptions and interest rate risks . Geopolitical tensions, such as those between the U.S. and China, and trade policies like tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, could increase costs, disrupt supply chains for data center construction, and impact demand for WhiteFiber's services . Cybersecurity incidents and physical security breaches pose significant threats to both digital asset and WhiteFiber operations, potentially leading to reputational harm, operational interruptions, data loss, and regulatory penalties . The company also faces risks from customer concentration, with a small number of customers accounting for a large portion of WhiteFiber's revenue, and the potential for advancements in AI technology to reduce demand for HPC services .

Management Priorities

Management's message to shareholders emphasizes a strategic shift towards becoming a pure-play ETH staking and treasury company, actively converting Bitcoin holdings into ETH and winding down Bitcoin mining operations, with net proceeds to be redeployed into ETH . This strategy treats ETH as a productive economic infrastructure, focusing on long-duration, foundational infrastructure and disciplined balance sheet management . Concurrently, through its majority ownership in WhiteFiber, the company is committed to integrating AI intelligence infrastructure exposure to position Bit Digital as a premier strategic asset company . Management highlights WhiteFiber's aggressive pursuit of data center development, aiming for an estimated 76 MW (gross) of total data center capacity by the end of the fourth quarter of 2026 , underpinned by customer lease commitments and long-term contracts, such as the Nscale agreement representing approximately $865 million in total contracted revenue over a 10-year term . The strategic priorities include growing the net ETH position over time, subject to risk and liquidity constraints, and evaluating staking and related mechanisms based on security, liquidity, counterparty, and regulatory profiles . Management also stresses the importance of robust custody, cybersecurity, segregation of duties, and counterparty oversight across its digital asset treasury operations .
