    • The Company does not intend to sell WhiteFiber shares in 2026 and views the position as a long-term strategic asset.
    • The Company does not expect to allocate meaningful growth or maintenance capital to the Bitcoin mining segment going forward.
    • Capital allocation is expected to continue shifting toward Ethereum and infrastructure-related opportunities.

The increase was driven by the MTL-3 site becoming fully operational in November 2025 and revenue generation from the first 20 MW of contracted capacity at the NC-1 facility.
    • ETH staking revenue was $1.0 million in Q3 2026, down from $2.9 million in Q3 2025 due to repositioning ETH into liquid staking for WhiteFiber financing, but up 14% sequentially from Q2 2026. For the nine months, ETH staking revenue increased 11% year over year.
    • Digital asset mining revenue was $2.0 million in Q3 2026 (28.4 Bitcoin mined), down from $7.4 million (64.9 Bitcoin mined) in Q3 2025, representing a 63% decline for the nine months. The segment generated a gross margin of approximately 27%.

    • The Company sold 1,625 ETH for $3.4 million during the quarter at an average price of $2,114.62 and acquired no ETH.
    • A non-cash impairment of $3.2 million was recorded on LsETH during the quarter.
  • Market and Competitive Landscape:

    • The Company operates as a Strategic Asset Company focused on Ethereum strategies and AI/HPC infrastructure through its majority ownership stake in WhiteFiber.
    • WhiteFiber results are consolidated, with a portion attributable to non-controlling interests.
    • As of September 30, 2026, Bit Digital held 27,043,750 shares of WhiteFiber (59.7% of outstanding shares) with an implied value of approximately $487 million.
    • The Company holds an investment portfolio including third-party managed funds and smaller holdings providing exposure to private AI businesses and digital asset market infrastructure.
  • Risks and Challenges:

    • The Company notes that investing in securities involves risks, including those described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent filings.
    • Risks include the potential for business operations to be impaired by material risks, which could lead to a decline in security value and loss of investment.
    • The Company highlights the trade-offs between funding share repurchases through selling Ethereum (which reduces staking income and exposure to ETH appreciation) versus maintaining liquidity.
    • Forward-looking statements involve assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, and actual results could differ materially.
  • Management Commentary and Tone:

    • CEO Sam Tabar stated that Q3 results reflect a continued shift toward Ethereum and AI infrastructure, noting sequential growth in colocation revenue and native ETH staking revenue.
    • Management reported positive GAAP earnings, attributing the result significantly to digital asset valuation gains.
    • Native staking generated 474 ETH during the quarter, bringing total rewards earned through September to approximately 1,863 ETH.
    • Management described the persistent discount to net asset value as a factor making share repurchases an option deserving serious consideration, subject to funding and shareholder approval.
    • The tone remains constructive on owned assets, with a focus on translating asset value into shareholder returns.
  • Analyst Questions and Answers:

    • No specific analyst questions and answers were included in the provided press release text.
  • Other Key Points:

    • WhiteFiber repaid $30 million of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility in September, and Bit Digital separately repaid $30 million to Galaxy.
    • Subsequent to the quarter end (October 27), WhiteFiber received an additional $70 million drawdown under the facility, bringing total outstanding to $100 million.
    • 45,000 LsETH were pledged as collateral subsequent to the quarter end in connection with WhiteFiber's $70 million drawdown.
    • The Company's 2030 Convertible Notes include $150 million in principal outstanding, alongside WhiteFiber's 2031 and 2032 Convertible Notes.
    • The Company continues to wind down the Bitcoin mining business, which remains gross margin positive but is no longer a strategic growth priority.
