We are a vertically integrated digital infrastructure company principally engaged in developing and optimizing our large-scale power assets. Our business centers on enhancing our electrical infrastructure and deploying it across two complementary platforms: (i) Bitcoin Mining and (ii) scalable data center solutions designed to support non-mining workloads. By leveraging our energy portfolio, engineering capabilities, and operational footprint, we aim to capitalize on both the long-term potential of bitcoin and the accelerating demand for power-intensive compute. We operate in two reportable business segments: Bitcoin Mining and Engineering. Each of our business segments is further discussed herein. We own and manage multiple large-scale data center facilities in Texas and Kentucky that currently provide mission-critical power and infrastructure for our Bitcoin Mining operations and, over time, are expected to support diversified data center tenants. Our large-scale data center located in Rockdale, Texas (the “Rockdale Facility”) with 700 megawatts (“MW”) of developed capacity available for data center workloads, is believed to be one of the largest Bitcoin Mining facilities in North America, as measured by developed capacity. Our other large-scale data center located in Navarro County, Texas (the “Corsicana Facility”), currently has 400 MW of developed capacity and, upon completion, is expected to have a total of approximately one gigawatt (“GW”) of developed capacity available for data center workloads. Additionally, in 2024, we acquired Block Mining, Inc. (“Block Mining”), a Kentucky-based vertically-integrated bitcoin miner (the “Block Mining Acquisition”). Block Mining consists of two operational sites in Kentucky (the “Kentucky Facility” and, together with the Rockdale Facility and Corsicana Facility, the “Facilities”). The Kentucky Facility currently has approximately 137 MW of developed capacity. We are targeting the Kentucky Facility to reach a total capacity of approximately 232 MW through the remainder of 2026, with additional expansion anticipated. Data Center Development In 2025, we began leveraging our core competencies in power optimization, strategic land acquisition, engineering design, and construction execution to begin actively pursuing opportunities to develop and monetize portions of our existing facilities and power pipeline through the provision of data center leasing services. We strengthened our execution capacity by recruiting critical talent and launching a scalable data center platform to support the initial phase of our data center development at the Corsicana Facility (“Data Center Phase I”). We have completed our basis of design for our standard data center build and are assessing the procurement of all long-lead equipment, in alignment with our disciplined capital allocation strategy focused on delivering superior risk-adjusted returns. In January 2026, we announced the fee simple acquisition of the approximately 200-acre parcel of land underlying the Rockdale Facility, which we previously occupied pursuant to a long-term ground lease. This strategic acquisition enhances the Company's operational stability by securing direct ownership of the site’s critical infrastructure, including its 700 MW grid interconnection, dedicated water supply, and redundant fiber connectivity. By securing ownership of the underlying real estate, we have eliminated leasehold contingencies, thereby facilitating the further development and expansion of the Rockdale Facility for large-scale data center operations. Additionally, in January 2026, we announced the execution of a long-term data center lease agreement (the “AMD Lease”) with Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (“AMD”), to initially provide 25 MW of critical IT load capacity at the Rockdale Facility. The AMD Lease has an initial term of ten years and provides for expansion options for up to an additional 75 MW of critical IT load capacity, and a right of first refusal of up to an additional 100 MW. Furthermore, the AMD Lease includes provisions for three successive five-year renewal terms at the option of the lessee. We believe that these foundational investments reflect a proactive, strategic approach to maximizing our energy portfolio and accessing additional revenue opportunities, and position us for durable, long-term leadership and value creation in the data center sector.…
