Insights

This strategic contract marks a notable evolution in Bit Digital's business model, demonstrating a sophisticated approach to high-performance computing infrastructure. The $15 million annualized revenue stream from the B200 GPU deployment presents several key advantages:

The financial structure is particularly compelling: The customer's two-month prepayment combined with the ability to deduct fees from an existing $30 million non-refundable deposit creates a robust cash flow framework. This arrangement significantly reduces payment risk while maintaining working capital efficiency.

The decision to deploy in Iceland is strategically sound for three reasons:

  • Iceland's renewable energy infrastructure provides cost-effective, sustainable power
  • The natural cooling climate reduces operational costs
  • The location offers excellent connectivity to both European and North American markets

The replacement of the original 2,048 H100 GPU agreement with 464 B200 GPUs is particularly noteworthy. While representing fewer units, the CEO's comment about 'significantly improved margins' suggests this configuration may actually deliver superior financial performance. This optimization reflects astute management of capital efficiency and resource allocation.

The $21 million hardware investment, fully owned by Bit Digital, establishes a valuable asset base that could be leveraged for future expansion or redeployment. The 18-month contract duration provides stable revenue visibility while maintaining flexibility for future market opportunities.

Investor Notice

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and forward-looking statements described under "Risk Factors" in Item 3.D of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 ("Annual Report"). Notwithstanding the fact that Bit Digital Inc. has not conducted operations in the PRC since September 30, 2021 we have previously disclosed under Risk Factors in our Annual Report: "We may be subject to fines and penalties for any noncompliance with or any liabilities in our former business in China in a certain period from now on." Although the statute of limitations for non-compliance by our former business in the PRC is generally two years and the Company has been out of the PRC, for more than two years, the Authority may still find its prior bitcoin mining operations involved a threat to financial security. In such event, the two-year period would be extended to five years. If any material risk was to occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In that event, the value of our securities could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment. The risks and uncertainties we describe are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. In addition, our past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results in the future. Future changes in the network-wide mining difficulty rate or bitcoin hash rate may also materially affect the future performance of Bit Digital's production of bitcoin. Actual operating results will vary depending on many factors including network difficulty rate, total hash rate of the network, the operations of our facilities, the status of our miners, and other factors. See "Safe Harbor Statement" below.
