NOTE 1 –
ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
MARA Holdings, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “MARA”) is a vertically integrated digital energy and infrastructure company that leverages high-intensity compute, such as Bitcoin mining, to monetize excess energy and optimize power management. The Company is focused on two key priorities: strategically growing by shifting its model toward low-cost energy with more efficient capital deployment and working to develop and deploy a full suite of solutions for data centers and edge inference, including energy management and load balancing.
The term “Bitcoin” with a capital “B” is used to denote the Bitcoin protocol which implements a highly available, public, permanent, and decentralized ledger. The terms “bitcoin” with a lower case “b” and “BTC” are used to denote the digital asset, bitcoin.
NOTE 2 –
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions, including any noncontrolling interest, have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has prepared the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable to interim financial information, which permit the omission of certain information to the extent it has not changed materially since the latest annual financial statements. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future fiscal periods in 2025 or for the full year ending December 31, 2025.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 3, 2025.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, estimates associated with the useful lives of property and equipment, realization of long-lived assets, impairment of goodwill, valuation of derivative instruments, deferred income taxes, unrealized tax positions, measurement of digital assets and related receivables and loss contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Effective the first quarter of 2025, the Company made certain changes to the presentation of its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations to provide greater transparency and improve the usefulness of its financial reporting. Specifically, the Company disaggregated cost of revenue and certain operating expenses into the following new line items: “Purchased energy costs,” “Operating and maintenance costs,” and “Third-party hosting and other energy costs.” In addition, cost of depreciation and amortization and amortization of intangibles have been aggregated into a single line item titled “Depreciation and amortization.” The Company also began separately
presenting expenses related to “Taxes other than on income,” which were previously included within general and administrative expenses.
These changes are intended to provide more meaningful information regarding the nature of the Company’s operating expenses and to align the presentation with the evolving nature of the Company’s operations.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the reported financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
The impact on any prior period disclosures were immaterial.
Segment Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s CODM group is composed of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The Company operates as
one
operating segment and uses net income as a measure of profit or loss on a consolidated basis in making decisions regarding resource allocation and performance assessment. Additionally, the Company’s CODM regularly reviews the Company’s expenses on a consolidated basis. The financial metrics used by the CODM help make key operating decisions, such as determination of digital asset purchases and significant acquisitions and allocation of budget between operating costs, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments and other short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). During March 2023, the Company began to participate, to the extent practicable, in insured cash sweep programs which “sweep” its deposits across multiple FDIC insured accounts, each with deposits of no more than $250.0 thousand. As of September 30, 2025, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were FDIC insured or government backed.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash as of
September 30, 2025
principally represented those cash balances that support commercial letters of credit and are restricted from withdrawal.
Digital Assets
The Company primarily holds bitcoin for long-term investment purposes and may periodically make strategic open market purchases of bitcoin. The Company seeks to generate returns on its holdings as bitcoin price appreciates and actively pursues risk-adjusted return opportunities to generate cash flows that supports its operating expenses. During the third quarter of 2025, the Company revised its bitcoin investment strategy and may opt to sell a portion of the bitcoin produced from its mining operations to fund operational costs, while continuing to hold the majority of its bitcoin for long-term investment purposes.
Bitcoin digital assets are included in non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets due to the Company’s intent to retain and hold the majority of its bitcoin for long-term investment purposes. Other digital assets are held with the intent to fund operating expenses and are included in current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, digital assets that are loaned, actively managed or pledged as collateral are reported as “Digital assets - receivable, net” and classified as long-term assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, consistent with the Company’s intent to primarily retain bitcoin under its bitcoin investment approach.
Proceeds from the sale of digital assets are included within investing activities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Following the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-08,
Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets
, effective January 1, 2023, the Company measures digital assets at
fair value with changes recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, in accordance with ASC 350-60,
Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Crypto Assets
(“ASC 350-60”). The Company tracks its cost basis of digital assets in accordance with the first-in-first-out method of accounting. Refer to Note 5 – Digital Assets, for further information.
Digital Assets - Receivable, net
The Company lends digital assets to counterparties under fixed term loans. In addition, the Company has pledged bitcoin as collateral for the Line of Credit (as defined below). Digital asset receivables that do not have a prespecified maturity date are repayable at the Company’s option, subject to notice between
three
and
35
business days. While the loan is outstanding, the borrower has the right and the ability to use the digital assets at its discretion, including the ability to sell or pledge the borrowed digital assets to third parties. At the conclusion of the loan, the borrower is obligated to return the same type and quantity of digital assets as those lent by the Company.
The digital asset receivables are initially measured upon transfer at fair value and subsequently remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The changes in fair value are recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, in accordance with ASC 350-60. A loan fee is accrued daily based on the amount owing, paid on a monthly basis consistent with each loan’s terms.
Additionally, the Company established a separately managed account (the “SMA”) with an external full-service investment advisor and transferred an allotted amount of the Company’s bitcoin holdings to be actively managed under such agreement. The SMA is managed within defined parameters intended to generate returns while limiting downside risk, and it maintains liquidity with short-term notice. Similar to bitcoin loaned or pledged as collateral, bitcoin transferred to the SMA is initially measured at fair value upon transfer and subsequently remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period.
The digital asset receivable balance is evaluated for possible credit losses, in accordance with ASC 326,
Financial Instruments – Credit Losses
. The allowance for credit losses on digital assets receivables under the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model is determined by utilizing the probability of default (“PD”) loss given default (“LGD”) approach. In order to apply the PD LGD approach, management considers the remaining expected life of the loans and forecasts of future economic conditions. Allowance for credit losses are included in “Other” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 5 – Digital Assets, “Digital assets - receivable, net” for further information.
Derivatives
The Company enters into derivative contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the price of bitcoin and energy costs and not for any other purpose. In addition, the Company evaluates its financing and service arrangements to determine whether certain arrangements contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation in accordance with ASC 815,
Derivatives and Hedging
. Embedded derivatives that are required to be bifurcated from the host instrument or arrangement are accounted for and valued as separate financial instruments. There were
no
embedded derivatives requiring separation from the host instrument as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
The Company does not elect to designate derivative instruments as hedges for accounting purposes. As such, derivative instruments are recorded at fair value each reporting period as “Derivative instruments” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with subsequent changes in fair value and settlements recognized in “Changes in fair value of derivative instrument” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company classifies derivative assets or liabilities as current or non-current based on whether settlement of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date, and for derivatives with multiple settlements, based on the term of the contract.
Bitcoin Derivatives
From time to time the Company enters into derivative contracts to mitigate bitcoin market pricing volatility risk. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a $
3.2
million and
$
10.2
million loss, respectively, on derivatives as a non-operating expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, settled through bitcoin.
Energy Derivatives
The Company acquired a commodity swap contract as a result of the GC Data Center Acquisition (as defined below) on January 12, 2024. The commodity swap contract hedges price variability in electricity purchases and expires on December 31, 2027. The commodity swap contract meets the definition of a derivative due to terms that provide for net settlement.
In April 2025, the Company amended the commodity swap contract, which lowered the fixed price for electricity and resulted in an $
8.2
million adjustment recorded in “Change in fair value of derivative instrument” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
As of September 30, 2025, the estimated fair value of the Company’s derivative asset instrument was $
51.7
million, estimated using observable market-based inputs classified under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The significant assumptions used in the discounted cash flow model to estimate fair value include the discount rate and electricity forward curves.
The following table presents changes in fair value of the derivative instrument for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a loss of $
4.4
million as the “Change in fair value of the derivative instrument” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment, as applicable. Property and equipment acquired through business combinations are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company’s property and equipment is primarily composed of digital asset mining rigs, which are largely homogeneous and have approximately the same useful lives. Accordingly, the Company utilizes the group method of depreciation for its digital asset mining rigs. The Company will update the estimated useful lives of its digital asset mining server group periodically if information on the operations of the mining equipment indicates changes are required. The Company will assess and adjust the estimated useful lives of its mining equipment when there are indicators that the productivity of the mining assets is longer or shorter than the assigned estimated useful lives.
Investments, which may be made from time-to-time for strategic reasons, are included in non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 8 – Investments, for further information.
Equity Method Investments
The Company accounts for investments in which it owns between 20% and 50% of the common stock and has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee using the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323,
Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures
. Under the equity method, an investor initially records its investment in the investee at cost and adjusts the carrying amount of its investment to recognize its proportionate share of the earnings or losses of the investee after the date of investment.
Other Investments
Investments in which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence and does not have readily determinable fair values, are recorded at cost minus impairment, plus or minus changes from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer, in accordance with the measurement alternative described in ASC 321,
Investments – Equity Securities
(“ASC 321”).
As part of the Company’s policy to maximize return on strategic investment opportunities, while preserving capital and limiting downside risk, the Company may at times enter into equity investments or Simple Agreements for Future Equity (“SAFE”). The nature and timing of the Company’s investments will depend on available capital at any particular time and the investment opportunities identified and available to the Company. However, the Company generally does not make investments for speculative purposes and does not intend to engage in the business of making investments.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception based on whether or not the Company has the right to control the asset during the contract period and other facts and circumstances. At lease inception, the Company determines the lease classification as either an operating or finance lease, with classification effecting the expense recognition on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For leases with terms longer than 12 months, a lease liability is recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the present value of its fixed minimum payment obligations over the lease term, including renewal extension options, and a corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) asset equal to the initial lease liability is recorded, adjusted for any prepayments, indirect costs and lease incentives, as well as adjustments to reflect favorable or unfavorable terms of an acquired lease when compared to market terms at the time of an acquisition. Refer to Note 15 – Leases, for further information.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is not subject to amortization, and instead, assessed for impairment annually at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying value may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 350
, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other
.
The Company initially assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, in which case a quantitative impairment test is performed. The Company performs the quantitative goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carry amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, goodwill is impaired and an impairment loss up to the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit is recognized. Income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit are considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.
Intangible assets are recorded at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets acquired through business combinations are measured at fair value at the acquisition date.
Intangible assets with finite lives are comprised of customer relationships and intellectual property and are amortized over their estimated useful lives on an accelerated basis over the projected pattern of economic benefits, which range from
one
to
four years
. Finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value has been reduced to less than its carrying amount.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805,
Business Combinations
(“ASC 805”), by recognizing the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, measured at the acquisition date fair value. The determination of fair value involves assumptions, estimates and judgments. The initial allocation of the purchase price is considered preliminary and therefore subject to change until the end of the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Contingent consideration is included within the purchase price and is initially recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date. Contingent consideration, classified as a liability, is remeasured to fair value each reporting period, until the contingency is resolved. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration period-over-period are recognized in earnings.
Acquisition related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred.
Revenues
The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
(“ASC 606”). The core principle of the revenue standard is that a reporting entity should recognize revenues to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Refer to Note 4 – Revenues, for further information.
Purchased Energy Costs
The Company defines purchased energy costs as the amount paid to power providers for power consumed related to the Company’s owned Bitcoin mining operations.
Third-Party Hosting and Other Energy Costs
The Company considers third-party hosting and other energy costs as power expenses paid to power providers for power consumed related to third party hosted Bitcoin mining operations, as well as other digital asset mining operation energy costs. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has third party hosting agreements extending through 2028. Refer to Note 16 – Commitments and Contingencies, for further information.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for awards to employees and non-employees based on the grant date fair value of the award and uses the graded-vesting method to recognize expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period from the date of grant of the award for each separately vesting tranche. The grant date fair value of awards with market-based conditions is determined using the Monte Carlo simulation model. Restricted stock units represent the right to receive a certain number of shares of the Company’s common stock, with vesting subject to a service requirement. Performance-based stock units represent the right to receive a number of shares of the Company’s common stock based on the achievement of performance-based measures or market-based conditions, with vesting subject to a service requirement. At each reporting date, the Company reassesses the level of expected achievement of performance-based measures and records any resulting cumulative adjustment in the period of reassessment. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur, rather than estimated expected
forfeitures at the grant date, resulting in a true-up of expense to reflect actual vesting outcomes. Refer to Note 13 – Stock-based Compensation, for further information.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
Management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Research and Development
Research and development costs consist primarily of contractor costs, equipment, supplies, personnel, and related expenses for research and development activities. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred in accordance with ASC 730,
Research and Development
and are included in operating expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Research and development costs were $
8.7
million and $
2.8
million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $
26.6
million and $
9.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Restructuring Costs
Restructuring costs reflect expenses resulting from restructuring initiatives the Company undertakes to improve operational efficiency and align resources with its strategic objectives. Restructuring costs primarily include asset write-off charges, contract termination costs, costs to vacate facilities, and other direct expenses associated with approved restructuring plans. Costs are recognized when the Company’s management approves a restructuring plan and the related amounts are both probable and estimable.
During the third quarter of 2025, the Company’s management committed to and initiated a restructuring plan to reorganize its technology operations, transitioning from a centralized technology unit to a model that embeds technological expertise and capabilities across the business. As part of this strategic shift, the Company decided to exit its two-phase immersion cooling (“2PIC”) product line and reallocate resources to other strategic opportunities.
Restructuring costs incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily consisted of asset write-off charges, contract termination costs and facility exit costs of $
20.9
million, recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The majority of the actions of the restructuring plan were completed as of September 30, 2025.
Income Taxes
Effective Tax Rate
Our effective tax rate from continuing operations was
23.43
% and
28.26
% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and
24.18
% and
142.36
% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The difference between the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% was primarily due to non-deductible officer compensation, which represents a permanent difference that reduces the overall tax benefit.
The variance in effective tax rates between the current and prior year periods is primarily attributable to a valuation allowance that was in place during the prior year. The valuation allowance was established to offset deferred tax assets that were not expected to be realized at that time.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company concluded, based upon all available evidence, that it was more likely than not that it would realize federal and state deferred tax assets. This assessment was primarily supported by the reversal of existing deferred tax liabilities and the Company’s continued generation of taxable income, including its cumulative income position over the past three years. Accordingly, no valuation allowance has been recorded against the Company’s federal and state deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2025.
The Company records its tax expense or benefit on an interim basis using an estimated annual effective tax rate. This rate is applied to the current period ordinary income or loss to determine the income tax provision or benefit allocated to the interim period. The income tax effects of unusual or infrequent items are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate and are recognized in the impacted interim period.
Adjustments to the estimated annual effective income tax rate are recognized in the period when such estimates are revised.
Uncertain Tax Positions
The Company files federal and state income tax returns. The 2021-2024 tax years generally remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and various state taxing authorities, although the Company is not currently under examination in any jurisdiction.
The Company does not currently expect any of its remaining unrecognized tax benefits to be recognized in the next 12 months.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement may affect the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes an analysis to determine any required changes to its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements properly reflect the change.

ACQUISITIONS
Wind Farm (
Hansford County, Texas
)
On February 14, 2025, the Company acquired a wind farm located in Hansford County, Texas with
240
megawatts of interconnection capacity and
114
megawatts of nameplate wind capacity from Great Plains Wind Park Holdings, LLC (the “Wind Farm”) for total consideration of $
49.2
million, including transaction costs and contingent consideration. The primary assets acquired were property and equipment of $
48.2
million and $
1.0
million related to working capital. In addition, the Company recorded a $
10.9
million ROU asset and corresponding lease liability and a $
3.3
million asset retirement obligation and offsetting liability, recognized in property and equipment and other long-term liabilities, respectively. The acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition that did not meet the definition of a business. The total consideration was allocated based on the relative fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and no goodwill was recognized. This acquisition is intended to convert underutilized sustainable resources into economic value, achieve low energy cost, and enable broader renewable energy development.
GC Data Center Acquisition and Garden City Acquisition
The Company acquired
two
operational Bitcoin mining sites located in Granbury, Texas and Kearney, Nebraska (the “GC Data Center Acquisition”) on January 12, 2024 and an additional operational Bitcoin mining site located in Garden City, Texas (the “Garden City Acquisition”) on April 1, 2024.

NOTE 4 –
REVENUES
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606. The core principle of the revenue standard is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
•
Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer;
•
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
•
Step 3: Determine the transaction price;
•
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
•
Step 5: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, an entity must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised good or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” good or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met:
•
The customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (i.e., the good or service is capable of being distinct); and
•
The entity’s promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (i.e., the promise to transfer the good or service is distinct within the context of the contract).
If a good or service is not distinct, the good or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct.
The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. When determining the transaction price, an entity must consider the effects of all of the following:
•
Variable consideration;
•
Constraining estimates of variable consideration;
•
The existence of a significant financing component in the contract;
•
Noncash consideration; and
•
Consideration payable to a customer.
Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized under the accounting contract will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis.
The transaction price allocated to each performance obligation is recognized when that performance obligation is satisfied, at a point in time or over time, as appropriate.
Application of the Five-Step Model to the Company’s Mining and Hosting Operations
The Company’s ongoing major or central operation is to provide bitcoin transaction verification services to the transaction requester, in addition to the Bitcoin network through a Company-operated mining pool as the operator (“Operator”) (such activity, “mining”) and to provide a service of performing hash calculations to third-party pool
operators alongside collectives of third-party bitcoin miners (such collectives, “mining pools”) as a participant (“Participant”).
In 2024, the Company acquired multiple operational Bitcoin mining sites for the purpose of improving efficiencies and the scale of the Company’s mining operations. The Company provided hosting services to institutional-scale crypto mining companies at these sites. The Company will not be taking on any new hosting services customers at these locations and will transition to self-mining at these sites as existing customer agreements expire or are terminated early.
The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated for those arrangements in which the Company is the Operator and Participant:

Mining Operator
As Operator, the Company provides transaction verification services to the transaction requester, in addition to the Bitcoin network. Transaction verification services are an output of the Company’s ordinary activities; therefore, the Company views the transaction requester as a customer and recognizes the transaction fees as revenue from contracts with customers under ASC 606. The Bitcoin network is not an entity such that it may not meet the definition of a customer; however, the Company has concluded that it is appropriate to apply ASC 606 by analogy to block rewards earned from the Bitcoin network. The Company is currently entitled to the block reward of
3.125
bitcoin, subsequent to the halving that occurred on April 19, 2024. Prior to the halving, the Company was entitled to the block reward of
6.25
bitcoin from each successful validation of a block. The Company is also entitled to the transaction fees paid by the transaction requester payable in bitcoin for each successful validation of a block. The Company assessed the following factors in the determination of the inception and duration of each individual contract to validate a block and satisfaction of its performance obligation as follows:
•
For each individual contract, the parties’ rights, the transaction price, and the payment terms are fixed and known as of the inception of each individual contract.
•
The transaction requester and the Bitcoin network each have a unilateral enforceable right to terminate their respective contracts at any time without penalty.
•
For each of these respective contracts, contract inception and completion occur simultaneously upon block validation; that is, the contract begins upon, and the duration of the contract does not extend beyond, the validation of an individual blockchain transaction; and each respective contract contains a single performance obligation to perform a transaction validation service and this performance obligation is satisfied at the point-in-time when a block is successfully validated.
In accordance with ASC 606-10-32-21, the Company measures the estimated fair value of the non-cash consideration (block reward and transaction fees) at contract inception, which is at the time the performance obligation to the requester and the network is fulfilled by successfully validating a block. The Company measures the non-cash consideration which is fixed as of the inception of each individual contract using the quoted spot rate for bitcoin determined using the Company’s primary trading platform for bitcoin at the time the Company successfully validates a block.
Expenses associated with providing bitcoin transaction verification services, such as hosting fees, electricity costs, and related fees are recorded as purchased energy costs. Depreciation on digital asset mining equipment is recorded as depreciation and amortization.
Mining Participant
The Company participates in third-party operated mining pools. When the Company is a Participant in a third-party operated mining pool, the Company provides a service to perform hash calculations to the third-party pool operators. The Company considers the third-party mining pool operators to be its customers under Topic 606. Contract inception and the Company’s enforceable right to consideration begins when the Company commences providing hash calculation services to the mining pool operators. Each party to the contract has the unilateral right to terminate the contract at any time without any compensation to the other party for such termination. As such, the duration of a contract is less than a day and may be continuously renewed multiple times throughout the day. The implied renewal option is not a material right because there are no upfront or incremental fees in the initial contract and the terms, conditions, and compensation amount for the renewal options are at the then market rates.
The Company is entitled to non-cash compensation based on the pool operator’s payout model. The payout methodologies differ depending on the type of third-party operated mining pool. Full-Pay-Per-Share (“FPPS”) pools pay block rewards and transaction fees, less mining pool fees and Pay-Per-Share (“PPS”) pools pay block rewards less mining pool fees but no transaction fees. For FPPS and PPS pools, the Company is entitled to non-cash consideration even if a block is not successfully validated by the mining pool operators. Success-based mining pools pay a fractional share of the successfully mined block and transaction fees, reduced by pool operator expenses only if a block is successfully validated.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and during 2024, the Company participated in FPPS mining pools.
FPPS Mining Pools
The Company primarily participated in mining pools that use the FPPS payout method for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The Company is entitled to compensation once it begins to perform hash calculations for the pool operator in accordance with the operator’s specifications over a 24-hour period beginning midnight UTC and ending 23:59:59 UTC on a daily basis. The non-cash consideration that the Company is entitled to for providing hash calculations to the pool operator under the FPPS payout method is made up of block rewards and transaction fees less pool operator expenses determined as follows:
•
The non-cash consideration in the form of a block reward is based on the total blocks expected to be generated on the Bitcoin network for the daily 24-hour period beginning midnight UTC and ending 23:59:59 UTC in accordance with the following formula: the daily hash calculations that the Company provided to the pool operator as a percent of the Bitcoin network’s implied hash calculations as determined by the network difficulty, multiplied by the total Bitcoin network block rewards expected to be generated for the same daily period.
•
The non-cash consideration in the form of transaction fees paid by transaction requesters is based on the share of total actual fees paid over the daily 24-hour period beginning midnight UTC and ending 23:59:59 UTC in accordance with the following formula: total actual transaction fees generated on the Bitcoin network during the 24-hour period as a percent of total block rewards the Bitcoin network actually generated during the same 24-hour period, multiplied by the block rewards the Company earned for the same 24-hour period noted above.
•
The block reward and transaction fees earned by the Company are reduced by mining pool fees charged by the operator for operating the pool based on a rate schedule per the mining pool contract. The mining pool fee is only incurred to the extent the Company performs hash calculations and generates revenue in accordance with the pool operator’s payout formula during the same 24-hour period beginning midnight UTC daily.
The above non-cash consideration is variable in accordance with paragraphs ASC 606-10-32-5 to 606-10-32-7, since the amount of block reward earned depends on the amount of hash calculations the Company performs; the amount of transaction fees the Company is entitled to depends on the actual Bitcoin network transaction fees over the same 24-hour period; and the operator fees for the same 24-hour period are variable since they are determined based on the total block rewards and transaction fees in accordance with the pool operator’s agreement. While the non-cash consideration is variable, the Company has the ability to estimate the variable consideration at contract inception with reasonable certainty without the risk of significant revenue reversal. The Company does not constrain this variable consideration because it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of revenue recognized from the contract will not occur when the uncertainty is subsequently resolved and recognizes the non-cash consideration on the same day that control is transferred, which is the same day as contract inception.
The Company measures the non-cash consideration based on the simple average daily spot rate of bitcoin determined using the Company’s primary trading platform for bitcoin over a 24-hour period beginning midnight UTC and ending 23:59:59 UTC on the day of contract inception. The Company recognizes non-cash consideration on the same day that control of the contracted service is transferred to the pool operator, which is the same day as the contract inception.
Hosting Services
The Company operates multiple Bitcoin mining sites, which were acquired during the year ended December 31, 2024, that provide hosting services to institutional-scale crypto mining companies. Hosting services include colocation and managed services. Colocation services include providing mining companies with sheltered data center space, electrical power, cooling, and internet connectivity. Managed services generally include providing customers with technical support and maintenance services, in addition to colocation services. As of September 30, 2025, only one customer remains associated with these hosting services. The Company will not be taking on any new hosting services customers and will transition acquired sites to self-mining as existing customer agreements expire or are terminated early.
Colocation services revenue is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance. Managed services revenue is recognized at a point-in-time as the control transfers to the customer, satisfying the performance obligation. The transaction price for colocation services is variable based on the consumption of energy and the managed services price is a fixed rate per miner basis. The Company recognizes hosting services revenue to the extent that a significant reversal of such revenue will not occur. Hosting services customers are generally invoiced in advance of the month in which the Company satisfies its performance obligation, and deferred revenue is recorded for any upfront payments received in advance of the Company’s performance. The monthly transaction price is generally variable based on the amount of megawatt hours (“MWh”) consumed by the customer’s equipment and when other monthly contracted services are performed. At the end of each month, the customer is billed for the actual amount owed for services performed. The Company recognizes revenue for hosting services under the right-to-invoice practical expedient in ASC 606-10-55-18, which allows for the recognition of revenue over time as the Company’s right-to-invoice for final payment corresponds directly with the value of services transferred to the customer to-date.
Expenses associated with providing hosting services are recorded as third-party hosting and other energy costs, and depreciation on hosting equipment is recorded as depreciation and amortization.

Lending
Throughout 2024
, the Company entered into master securities loan agreements with various counterparties that represent digital asset loan receivables to generate returns from a portion of its bitcoin holdings. As of December 31, 2024, a total of
7,377
bitcoin remained loaned to counterparties under these agreements. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, an additional
3,000
bitcoin were loaned out to the counterparties, increasing the total bitcoin loaned under these agreements to
10,377
.
Trading
On May 6, 2025, the Company entered into an SMA agreement with Two Prime LLC, an external full-service investment advisor, and transferred approximately
2,000
bitcoin to be actively managed under the arrangement. As of September 30, 2025 the SMA incurred a net loss of approximately
97
bitcoin, or $
10.5
million, resulting in a total of
1,903
bitcoin held and actively managed within the SMA.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had a total of
5,077
and

The aforementioned digital asset receivables are initially recognized at fair value upon transfer and subsequently remeasured at fair value each reporting period. The changes in fair value are recognized as “Changes to digital assets - receivable, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The allowance for credit losses reflects the Company’s current estimate of the potential credit losses associated with the digital assets loaned, transferred to be actively managed, and bitcoin pledged as collateral in connection with outstanding borrowings. The credit loss is recorded as a valuation account, directly offsetting the digital asset receivables on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes to the allowance for credit losses on loans, based on quarterly analyses, are recorded as provision for credit losses within “Other” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company assesses the creditworthiness of its borrowers on a quarterly basis. For the purpose of determining the allowance for credit loss, financial assets with similar risk characteristics are pooled together. Our financial assets are aggregated by exposure term and assigned risk ratings. The Company considers credit ratings and various other factors, including the collateral and/or security of the digital asset receivable. The Company’s considerations are aligned with current ratings used by major credit ratings agencies.
Given the limited historical data related to digital asset receivables and incurred losses related to digital asset receivables, the Company chose to rely on external data to perform the calculation of expected credit losses. The Company utilized the PD LGD approach to estimate the allowance for credit loss. In order to apply the PD LGD approach, management considered the lifetime of the digital asset receivables, the reasonable and supportable forecast, and the PD LGD.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a corresponding allowance for credit loss of $
6.1
million, based on the PD LGD approach. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had digital asset receivables outstanding and recorded an allowance for credit loss of $
8.4
million.
NOTE 6 –
ADVANCES TO VENDORS AND DEPOSITS
The Company contracts with Bitcoin mining equipment manufacturers to procure equipment necessary for the operation of its Bitcoin mining operations. These agreements typically require the Company to make advance payments to mining equipment vendors, representing a portion of the total order value, payable at specified intervals. Payments are generally due several days after executing a contract and periodically thereafter with final payments due prior to shipment. The Company accounts for these payments as “Advances to vendors” on the
Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheets.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, such advances to mining equipment vendors totaled approximately $
107.4
million and $
121.3
million, respectively.
In addition, the Company contracts with various service providers for hosting, operational support and construction of data centers where the Company’s equipment is deployed. These contracts typically require prepayments to service providers in conjunction with the related contractual obligations. When applicable, funds associated with surety bonds are included in these balances. The Company classifies these payments as “Deposits” and “Long-term deposits” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, such deposits
totaled
approximately $
235.8

NOTE 10 –
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The Company measures certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. The Company uses a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, essentially an exit price, based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability.
The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1:
Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2:
Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions
The carrying amounts reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, other receivables, deposits, prepaid expenses and other current assets, advances to vendors, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. Additionally, the carrying amounts reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the Company’s operating lease liabilities and other long-term liabilities approximate fair value as the related interest rates approximate rates currently available to the Company.
Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement. The Company measures the fair value of its marketable securities and investments by taking into consideration valuations obtained from third-party pricing sources. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income and market-based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, to estimate fair value. These inputs include reported trades of and broker-dealer quotes on the same or similar securities, issuer credit spreads, benchmark securities and other observable inputs.
The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the Company’s estimated level within the fair value hierarchy for each of those assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively:

NOTE 11 –
NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Net income (loss) per share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260,
Earnings Per Share
. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded net income (loss) and as such, the Company calculated the impact of dilutive common stock equivalents in determining diluted earnings per share.
The following table presents the total potential securities that were not included in the computation of diluted income (loss) per share, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

per share of common stock. The conversion rate is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. In addition, following certain events that occur prior to the maturity date or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption, the Company will increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its August 2032 Notes in connection with such corporate event or notice of redemption, as the case may be, in certain circumstances as provided by the Indenture.
Prior to May 1, 2032, the August 2032 Notes are convertible only upon the occurrence of certain events. On or after May 1, 2032 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the August 2032 Notes, holders may convert the August 2032 Notes at any time. Upon conversion of the August 2032 Notes, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company’s election.
Prior to January 15, 2030, the Company may not redeem the August 2032 Notes. The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the August 2032 Notes, at its option, on or after January 15, 2030, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock has been at least
130
% of the conversion price then in effect for at least
20
trading days, whether or not consecutive, including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides a notice of redemption, during any
30
consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption. The
redemption price will be equal to
100
% of the principal amount of the August 2032 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
Holders have the right to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their August 2032 Notes on January 4, 2030 at a repurchase price equal to
100
% of the principal amount of the August 2032 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the repurchase date, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock on the second trading day immediately preceding the repurchase date is less than the conversion price. In addition, if the Company undergoes a “fundamental change,” as defined in the Indenture, prior to maturity, subject to certain conditions, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their August 2032 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to
100
% of the principal amount of the August 2032 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.
The Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of at least
25
% in principal amount of the outstanding August 2032 Notes may declare
100
% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, on, all the August 2032 Notes to be due and payable.
December 2026 Notes
Partial Extinguishment of Debt
On July 25, 2025, in connection with the issuance of the August 2032 Notes, the Company entered into a privately negotiated purchase agreement with certain holders of its December 2026 Notes to repurchase approximately $
19.4
million principal amount of the December 2026 Notes. This repurchase is treated as an extinguishment of debt. The Company recorded a $
1.0
million gain on extinguishment of debt based on the carrying value of the December 2026 Notes, cash paid and related transaction costs on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company may, from time to time, seek to repurchase additional notes prior to the maturity date, whether through privately negotiated purchases, open market purchases, or otherwise.
Capped Calls
On July 23, 2025, in connection with the pricing of the August 2032 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Calls”) with certain of the initial purchasers or their respective affiliates and certain financial institutions at an aggregate cost of approximately $
39.8
million.
The Capped Calls cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those of the August 2032 Notes, the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock initially underlying the August 2032 Notes. By entering into the Capped Calls, the Company expects to reduce the potential dilution to its common stock (or, in the event a conversion of the August 2032 Notes is settled in cash, to reduce its cash payment obligation) in the event that at the time of conversion of the August 2032 Notes the trading price of the Company’s common stock price exceeds the conversion price of the August 2032 Notes. The Capped Calls have a strike price of $
20.26
per share and an initial cap price of $
24.14
per share and are subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Calls.
The Capped Calls meet the criteria for classification in equity, are not remeasured each reporting period and are included as a reduction to additional paid-in capital within stockholders’ equity.
Line of Credit
In October 2024, the Company secured lines of credit (collectively, the “Original Line of Credit”) with
two
counterparties for a total of $
200.0
million, collateralized by
4,499
bitcoin. The Original Line of Credit, as amended in February 2025, bears interest at a rate of
10.5
% per annum, with maturity dates beginning in 2026. The Company drew $
200.0
million from the Original Line of Credit in October 2024 and concurrently transferred bitcoin to the counterparties as collateral at a fair value, at the time of transfer, of $
284.8
million.
In March 2025, the Company secured a second line of credit (the “New Line of Credit” and together with the Original Line of Credit, the “Line of Credit”) with a new counterparty for a total of $
150.0
million, collateralized by
3,250
bitcoin. The New Line of Credit bears interest at a rate of
8.85
% per annum and has a maturity date of March 2026. The Company drew $
150.0
million from the New Line of Credit in March 2025 and concurrently transferred bitcoin to the counterparty as collateral for a fair value, at the time of transfer, of $
269.5
million.
As of September 30, 2025, the aggregate outstanding balance on the Line of Credit was $
350.0
million, and
5,077
bitcoin remained collateralized.
The Line of Credit includes provisions requiring the collateral to be balanced against the outstanding borrowings. If the value of the collateral securing our borrowings fluctuates below or above a set threshold, the Company will be required to contribute additional collateral, or may withdraw excess collateral, as applicable, to maintain the agreed-upon level.

On July 13, 2023, a fourth shareholder derivative complaint was filed in the Circuit Court of the 17th Judicial Circuit for Broward County, Florida (together with the complaint filed on June 22, 2023, the “Florida Derivative Actions”), against current members of the Company’s board of directors and senior management, alleging claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and waste of corporate assets, based on allegations substantially similar to the allegations in the March 30, 2023 putative class action complaint in
Moreno
.
On August 14, 2023, the
two
derivative actions pending in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada were consolidated (the “Nevada Derivative Action”).

Ho v. Marathon
On January 14, 2021, plaintiff Michael Ho (“Ho”) filed a civil complaint (the “Complaint”) in which he alleged, among other things, that the Company breached the terms of a non-disclosure agreement, profited from commercially sensitive information he shared with the Company, and refused to compensate him for his role in securing the Company’s acquisition of an energy supplier. The Complaint initially alleged
six
causes of action: (1) breach of written contract, (2) breach of implied contract, (3) quasi-contract, (4) services rendered, (5) intentional interference with prospective economic relations, and (6) negligent interference with prospective economic relations. On February 22, 2021, the Company responded to the Complaint with a general denial of the claims and asserted certain affirmative defenses. On February 25, 2021, the Company removed the action to the United States District Court in the Central District of California (the “Court”). The Company subsequently filed a motion for summary judgment with respect to each of the causes of action. As a result of the Court’s summary judgment ruling and Ho’s voluntary dismissal of certain claims, the only remaining cause of action at the time of verdict was breach of written contract.
On July 8, 2024, the Court commenced a jury trial with respect to the sole remaining claim. On July 18, 2024, the jury determined that the Company had breached the non-disclosure agreement and returned a verdict in the amount of $
138.8
million. On September 18, 2024, the Court entered a judgment of the same amount, plus post-judgment interest. The Company has not paid any portion of the award. On October 16, 2024, the Company filed a renewed motion for judgment as a matter of law (or in the alternative for a new trial and remittitur), which seeks to overturn, or at a minimum significantly reduce, the damage award. Also on October 16, 2024, the Company filed a motion to correct the post-judgment interest rate set forth in the judgment, and Ho filed a motion requesting an award of pre-judgment interest. In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company acquired a surety bond for the amount owing.
On May 7, 2025, the Court entered an order denying the Company’s motions for judgment as a matter of law and for a new trial but granted a
20
percent reduction of the jury’s verdict. The Court also denied Ho’s motion for pre-
verdict prejudgment interest but awarded post-verdict prejudgment interest. On June 2, 2025, the Company filed its notice of appeal to the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, and on September 25, 2025, the Company filed its opening appeal brief. The Company intends to continue to defend its positions vigorously and assert its various legal arguments to challenge both the verdict and the amount of the award.
Malikie Innovations Ltd. et al v. MARA
On May 12, 2025, Malikie Innovations Ltd., a non-practicing entity, filed a lawsuit against the Company in the Western District of Texas, alleging that the Company’s Bitcoin mining operations infringe certain patents related to cryptographic technologies used in the Bitcoin network. The Company filed a motion to dismiss one of the asserted patents on July 21, 2025, and intends to vigorously defend against the claims.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND TRENDS
Overview
MARA is a vertically integrated digital energy and infrastructure company that leverages high-intensity compute, such as Bitcoin mining, to monetize excess energy and optimize power management. We are focused on two key priorities: strategically growing by shifting our model toward low-cost energy with more efficient capital deployment and working to develop and deploy a full suite of solutions for data centers and edge inference, including energy management and load balancing. As of September 30, 2025, our total energy portfolio consisted of approximately 1.8 gigawatts (“GW”) of capacity with 18 data centers deployed across North America, the Middle East, Europe, and Latin America. We believe we are one of the world’s largest publicly traded Bitcoin mining companies, with the majority of our production in the United States.
While we remain a dominant player in Bitcoin mining, we have expanded our footprint in energy generation and are investing in research and development to establish a presence in AI and adjacent markets, creating additional revenue opportunities over the long term. We believe the AI industry is shifting towards inference computing, which requires distributed, low-latency, and energy-efficient infrastructure. To support this shift, we are developing inference-dedicated sites and forging partnerships that reflect our vision. We are also exploring power management
solutions, including load balancing, to provide services to the variable energy demands of AI inference workloads and international expansion opportunities. We intend to continue vertically integrating and further reduce energy costs.
Recent Developments
Highlights from the quarter ended September 30, 2025:
•
As of September 30, 2025, we reached a new record high of 60.4 exahashes per second (“EH/s”).
•
On July 25, 2025, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion of 0.0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2032 (the “August 2032 Notes”) and in connection with the issuance, repurchased approximately $19.4 million principal amount of a portion of the December 2026 Notes. Refer to Note 14
–
Debt in the notes to our
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information.
•
We used approximately $100.0 million of proceeds from the
August 2032 Notes to purchase 860 bitcoin at an average price of $116,117 per bitcoin.
•
On August 11, 2025, we announced the signing of an investment agreement to acquire a 64% ownership interest in Exaion SAS, a subsidiary of EDF Pulse Ventures, specializing in high-performance computing and secure cloud/AI infrastructure, for approximately $168.0 million, with the option to increase our ownership in the future. Subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions, the acquisition is intended to expand our capabilities into AI/HPC infrastructure and enhance our ability to deliver secure, scalable cloud solutions.
•
During the quarter, we initiated a restructuring plan of our technology operations to better align resources with our strategic priorities, moving from a centralized unit to embedding technology across the business. As part of this plan, we exited our two-phase immersion cooling product line, which represented a majority of our technology operations, incurring $20.9 million in restructuring costs during the quarter.
•
We revised our bitcoin investment strategy and may opt to sell a portion of the bitcoin produced from our mining operations to fund operational costs, while continuing to hold the majority of our bitcoin for long-term investment purposes.
Subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 2025:
•
We deployed the first ten AI racks at our Granbury site within an air-cooled modular data center, launching our first operational hybrid AI and Bitcoin mining site.
•
On November 4, 2025, we announced our entry into a letter of intent with MPLX LP (NYSE: MPLX), a separately traded public company formed by Marathon Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: MPC), to expand our access to lower-cost natural gas and scalable power capacity to support the development of on-site power generation and compute infrastructure.
Bitcoin Mining Operations
In response to an increased demand for bitcoin, we anticipate additional mining operators entering the market and existing competitors scaling their operations, which will grow the blockchain’s network hashrate and difficulty associated with solving a new block. To maintain our competitive position, we will need to expand our hashrate accordingly and continue investing in efficient mining operations.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we mined 6,788 bitcoin, a decrease of 150 bitcoin, or 2%, from the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to the result of the April 2024 halving event, an increase in the
global hashrate and network difficulty level, the temporary deployment of less efficient miners while damages at our mining site were remediated and power curtailment limitations.
As of September 30, 2025, we owned approximately 455,000 mining rigs globally, including our share of mining rigs from our equity method investee, the ADGM entity, with an energized hashrate of approximately 60.4 EH/s. To stay competitive, we remain focused on strategically deploying additional mining rigs and scaling our operations, while managing our fleet as it ages along the obsolescence curve. In addition, we continuously evaluate strategic opportunities to support our growth strategy and seek to enhance operational efficiencies by utilizing efficient mining rigs and securing contracts with price protection clauses.
The following table presents our computing power and miner efficiency as of September 30, 2025 and 2024:

We define Energized hashrate as the total hashrate that could theoretically be generated if all mining rigs that have been operational are currently in operation and running at 100% of manufacturers’ specifications. We use this metric as an indicator of progress in bringing mining rigs online. We believe this metric is a useful indicator of potential bitcoin production. However, metrics cannot be tied directly to any production level expected to be actually achieved as (a) there may be delays in the energization of hashrate (b) we cannot predict when operational mining rigs may be offline for any reason, including curtailment or machine failure and (c) we cannot predict global hashrate (and therefore our share of the global hashrate), which has a significant impact on our ability to generate bitcoin in any given period.

Total energy capacity represents the maximum amount of electricity our facilities can utilize for our operations.
Bitcoin Value
Our revenues are generally comprised of block rewards earned in bitcoin as a result of successfully solving blocks, and transaction fees earned for verifying transactions in support of the blockchain. After the halving event of April 2024, the current reward for each solved block is equal to 3.125 bitcoin plus transaction fees. The impacts of halving on our results of operations and financial condition may be exacerbated by changes in the market value of bitcoin, which has historically been subject to significant volatility. For example, as of September 30, 2025, the price of a bitcoin was $114,068, compared to $63,301 as of September 30, 2024.
Historically, we have held bitcoin produced from our mining operations or purchased on the open market on our
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the quarter, we revised our bitcoin investment strategy and may opt to sell a portion of the bitcoin produced from our mining operations to fund ongoing operating expenses. In addition, as part of our digital asset management strategy, we may, from time to time, buy or sell bitcoin to generate incremental return or manage exposure to market conditions.
As of September 30, 2025, we held
approximately
52,850
bitcoin, including
17,357 bitcoin under our digital asset management strategy,
on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with a
carrying
value of approximately
$6.0 billion. The fair value of our bitcoin may be materially impacted as the market value of bitcoin fluctuates.
Management believes, given our recent investments, coupled with our relative position and liquidity, we are well-positioned to execute on our long-term growth strategy.

Energy Cost
Energy cost is the most significant cost driver for Bitcoin mining and represented 34.3% and 35.4%, as a percentage of our owned mining revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. This excludes energy costs from third-party hosted sites.
Energy cost can be highly volatile, cyclical and sensitive to geopolitical events and weather conditions or natural disasters, such as weather-related storms and earthquakes, which impact supply and demand for power regionally. All of our owned mining sites and our miners at third-party hosted sites are subject to variable prices and market rate fluctuations with respect to wholesale energy costs. Such costs are governed by various power purchase agreements, and energy prices can change hour to hour and by location. While this renders energy prices less predictable, it also gives us greater ability and flexibility to actively manage the energy we consume with a goal of increasing profitability and energy efficiency. When prices rise or supply is constrained, we may curtail our operations to avoid using power at increased rates. Although we do not receive significant compensation for curtailment, the dispatchable load of our Bitcoin mining operations helps balance the grid and provides electricity to communities when in need. The average price of direct energy we paid for our owned facilities was $0.04 per kilowatt hour (“kWh”) for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Purchased energy costs per BTC is calculated as the amounts paid to power providers for power consumed divided by the quantity of bitcoin produced during the period related to our owned mining operations. In addition to the impact of the April 2024 halving event, purchased energy costs increased due to broad-based increases in energy costs.
(2)
In 2024, the Company scaled its mining operations through acquisitions and deployment of additional infrastructure, resulting in an increase in its share of BTC block rewards. The growth was partially mitigated by the BTC halving event.
(3)
Purchased energy costs per kWh is calculated using the amounts paid to power providers for power consumed divided by the kWh consumed related to our owned Bitcoin mining operations.
In addition to energy costs incurred at our owned mining sites, third-party hosting and other energy costs remain a significant part of our overall cost structure and are subject to similar volatility and market dynamics. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, these costs totaled $75.7 million, reflecting both the expansion of our hosted mining operations and higher variable energy pricing at third-party facilities. Our hosting arrangements typically include energy charges, as well as maintenance and management fees for colocation and operational support. Such hosting arrangements have contractual commitments extending over the next three years and minimum future payments of approximately $385.5 million.
We continue to actively manage these costs by renegotiating contracts, evaluating alternative providers and transitioning certain hosted sites to self-owned mining sites as agreements expire. This approach is intended to enhance operational flexibility, mitigate exposure to energy price volatility and support long-term profitability as our business continues to scale.
Digital Asset Management
As the second-largest corporate holder of bitcoin globally, our strategy is focused on enhancing shareholder value through disciplined, risk-managed deployment of bitcoin beyond passive holdings. We view bitcoin as a productive asset, a source of liquidity, returns, and long-term capital appreciation. By activating a portion of our holdings through lending, structured trading arrangements, and collateralized financing, we seek to generate incremental income to help fund operations, expand infrastructure, and reduce our cost of capital. Our strategy balances upside participation in bitcoin appreciation with near-term cash flow generation, while maintaining substantial liquidity to respond to market opportunities.
In July 2025, we formalized a minority interest in Two Prime LLC (“Two Prime”), an external full-service registered investment advisor, to strengthen our risk-optimized return strategies and further align with a key partner. In addition to our structured trading initiatives, we have also deployed a portion of our bitcoin holdings through lending arrangements designed to generate incremental return and, to a lesser extent, used bitcoin as collateral to borrow under lines of credit.
As of September 30, 2025, we held a total of 52,850 bitcoin, including 17,357 bitcoin that were loaned, actively managed or pledged as collateral. As such, approximately 33% of our total holdings were activated through our digital asset management strategy.
Our digital asset management strategy resulted in an increase in the fair value of our bitcoin holdings of approximately $343.3 million and $1.0 billion during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, reflecting appreciation in the market price of bitcoin. In addition, we generated interest income from our bitcoin lending activities and recognized net investment losses from our bitcoin trading activities.
The Company’s core digital asset management strategy is comprised of the following activities:
Treasury
We retain the majority of our bitcoin holdings as a treasury asset, under our bitcoin investment approach, to preserve long-term exposure to fair value appreciation while also serving as an available source of liquidity. We hold our bitcoin across multiple custodial wallets to mitigate counterparty risk and avoid concentration with any single custodian.
In prior periods, we presented certain bitcoin yield metrics to illustrate trends in the growth of our bitcoin holdings. Beginning this quarter, these metrics are no longer presented, as management determined they are no longer meaningful given our decision to sell bitcoin from production to fund operations and our focus on the active management of our digital assets rather than passive bitcoin ownership.
Lending
Beginning in late 2024, we began lending arrangements with various counterparties to generate additional returns on our bitcoin holdings. As of September 30, 2025, we had loaned out a total of 10,377 bitcoin that generated $9.6 million and $22.7 million of interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. We assess the creditworthiness of counterparties prior to lending and reassess periodically. Loaned bitcoin is subject to recall upon short notice.
Trading
During the second quarter of 2025, we entered into a separately managed account (“SMA”) agreement with Two Prime and transferred 2,000 bitcoin. During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the SMA incurred a net loss of approximately 101 bitcoin, or $10.9 million, primarily attributable to trading activities. As of September 30, 2025, a total of 1,903 bitcoin were held and actively managed within the SMA. The SMA is managed within defined parameters intended to generate returns while limiting downside risk, and it maintains liquidity with short-term notice.
In addition, our digital asset management team may, from time to time, engage in various bitcoin-denominated trades such as options, futures, swaps and spot transactions to generate additional returns on our bitcoin holdings.
Borrowing
As of September 30, 2025, 5,077 bitcoin were pledged as collateral in connection with $350.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit bearing interest rates between 8.85% and 10.5% per annum.

“Cost per Petahash per day” is calculated using Bitcoin mining costs attributable to purchased energy costs, third-party hosting and other energy costs and cash operating and maintenance costs, divided by the daily average operational hashrate online during the period, excluding our share of the hashrate for the equity method investee, the ADGM Entity, and share of hashrate from our noncontrolling interest, by a factor of 1,000.
(2)
“
Purchased energy costs per BTC” is calculated as the amounts paid to power providers for power consumed divided by the quantity of bitcoin produced during the period related to our owned mining operations.
Purchased energy costs for the three months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $43.1 million compared to $27.0 million in the prior year period, an increase of $16.1 million, or approximately 60%. The increase was primarily driven by the expansion of our owned mining sites and the growth in our total hashrate to 60.4 EH/s, a 64% increase from the prior year period. Purchased energy costs consist of power expenses paid to power providers for power consumed related to our owned Bitcoin mining operations and, to a lesser extent, energy generated and consumed directly by us. Despite higher overall energy costs, our Cost per Petahash per day improved from $37.0 to $31.3, or approximately 15%, in the current period. However, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, Purchased energy costs per bitcoin for our owned mining sites were $39,235 compared to $32,433 in the prior year period, primarily due to higher network difficulty resulting from an increase in global hashrate.
Operating and maintenance costs for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $26.3 million compared to $9.4 million in the prior year period, an increase of $16.9 million or approximately 181%, primarily due to higher shipping and warehouse expenses and increased labor costs compared to the prior year period.
Third-party hosting and other energy costs for the three months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $75.7 million compared to $63.7 million in the prior year period, an increase of $12.0 million, or approximately 19%. These costs primarily consist of colocation services related to third-party hosted sites and energy expenses related to mining other digital assets. The increase was primarily due to the addition of energized miners and the expansion of third-party hosted facilities compared to the prior year period.
Refer to Note 2
–
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the notes to our
Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements for further information on our presentation change relating to our costs.
General and administrative expenses were $85.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $58.7 million in the prior year period. These expenses consist of stock-based compensation, professional and legal fees and other personnel and office expenses. The $26.6 million, or approximately 45% increase, was driven by the continued strategic expansion of our business and our pivot from asset-light to a vertically integrated model, partially offset by lower marketing-related costs in the current period. The increase reflects the scaling of our operations, higher personnel costs associated with headcount growth from approximately 130 to 228 and increased professional and administrative fees in support of our expanded footprint. Stock-based compensation expense increased by $14.3 million, primarily due to the 2025 long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) grants, an accounting charge due to the modification to the 2024 LTIP awards at the end of 2024, and an increase in headcount. This increase was partially offset by reduced expense associated with the 2023 LTIP awards on a comparative basis.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $167.3 million compared to $101.9 million in the prior year period. The $65.5 million, or approximately 64%, increase was primarily due to the deployment of additional mining rigs and an overall increased scale of business.
Change in fair value of digital assets
We recognized a gain on digital assets of $234.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to a gain of $30.1 million in the prior year period. The $204.2 million increase was primarily attributable to the rise in the price of bitcoin and increase in our bitcoin holdings compared to the prior year period.
Change in fair value of derivative instrument
We recognized a loss on the change in fair value of derivative instrument of $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to a loss of $58.2 million in the prior year period. The change primarily relates to the remeasurement of the commodity swap contract acquired in the GC Data Center Acquisition, which meets the definition of a derivative instrument and is remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Changes in fair value were primarily driven by fluctuations in electricity forward curve prices during the respective periods.
Taxes other than on income
Taxes other than on income were $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $2.0 million in the prior year period. Taxes other than on income consist primarily of property, sales and use taxes.
Early termination expenses
Early termination expenses of $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were related to the termination of a management agreement at one of our owned mining facilities, which subsequently transitioned to internal management. In the prior year period, early termination expenses of $10.3 million were related to the termination of a data center hosting agreement with a customer acquired in the GC Data Center Acquisition prior to the maturity date of such hosting agreement, net of a deposit refund.
Research and development
Research and development expenses were $8.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $2.8 million in the prior year period. The $5.9 million, or approximately 210% increase, was primarily due to ongoing innovation initiatives and development activities to support our strategic expansion, following the reallocation of resources related to our restructuring plan.
Restructuring costs
During the third quarter of 2025, management committed to and initiated a restructuring plan in order to support data center initiatives and sovereign AI solutions, by reallocating our technology resources. Restructuring costs
incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $20.9 million, primarily consisting of asset write-off charges, contract termination expenses and facility exit costs. The majority of the restructuring plan actions were completed during the quarter. There were no such expenses in the prior year period.
Other income (loss)
Change in fair value of digital assets - receivable, net
We recognized a gain on digital assets - receivables, net of $108.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, resulting from an increase in the fair value associated with our bitcoin loaned, actively managed and pledged as collateral. There were no such activities in the prior year period.
Equity in net earnings of unconsolidated affiliate
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded our share of net loss for our 20% interest in the ADGM Entity of $1.7 million, compared to a loss of $2.1 million in the prior year period. Our share of the ADGM Entity’s operating results included earnings from the production of 29 bitcoin and approximately $3.2 million of depreciation and amortization during the three months ended September 30, 2025, while in the prior year period, our share of the ADGM Entity’s operating results included earnings from production of 46 bitcoin and approximately $3.1 million of depreciation and amortization.

Includes 135 and 313 bitcoin representing our share of the equity method investee, the ADGM entity, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
We generated revenues of $704.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $442.0 million in the prior year period. The $262.8 million, or approximately 59%, increase in revenues was primarily driven by an increase in Bitcoin mining revenue and, to a lesser extent, other revenue, partially offset by a decrease in hosting services and other digital assets mining revenue.
The $287.4 million increase in Bitcoin mining revenue was primarily driven by a 73% increase in the average price of bitcoin mined, which contributed $285.8 million, in addition to a $1.6 million increase from bitcoin production during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Hosting services was $3.5 million and $29.8 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, a decrease of $26.3 million primarily due to planned terminations of various hosting agreements following the GC Data Center Acquisition in 2024.

Purchased energy costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $128.3 million compared to $59.2 million in the prior year period, an increase of $69.1 million or approximately 117%. The increase was primarily driven by the expansion of our owned mining sites through acquisitions, higher overall energy consumption and the growth in our total hashrate to 60.4 EH/s. Our Cost per Petahash per day improved from $37.7 to $29.5, or approximately 22%, compared to the prior year period. Purchased energy costs per bitcoin for our owned mining sites were $36,118 compared to $27,633 in the prior year period, primarily due to higher network difficulty resulting from an increase in global hashrate and the April 2024 halving event.
Operating and maintenance costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $68.5 million compared to $40.8 million in the prior year period, an increase of $27.7 million or approximately 68%. The increase in operating and maintenance costs was primarily due to an increase in shipping and warehouse fees, site repair and maintenance and labor costs associated with our mining operations compared to the prior year period.
Third-party hosting and other energy costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $212.9 million compared to $187.3 million in the prior year period, an increase of $25.6 million or approximately 14%. The increase was primarily due to the addition of energized miners and the expansion of third-party hosted facilities.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses were $264.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $181.1 million in the prior year period. The $83.0 million, or approximately 46%, increase was primarily due to an increase in the scale of our operations, acquisitions and our pivot from asset-light to a vertically integrated model. The increase reflects the support to expand our footprint, higher personnel costs due to a growth in employee headcount and increased professional, administrative and acquisition-related fees. Stock-based compensation increased $35.9 million primarily due to the 2025 LTIP grants, an accounting charge due to the modification to the 2024 LTIP awards at the end of 2024, and an increase in headcount. This increase was partially offset by reduced expense associated with the 2023 LTIP awards on a comparative basis.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $487.0 million compared to $291.0 million in the prior year period. The $196.0 million, or approximately 67%, increase was primarily due to the deployment of additional mining rigs and an overall increased scale of business.
Change in fair value of digital assets
We recognized a gain on digital assets of $686.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to a gain of $370.9 million in the prior year period. The $315.2 million increase was primarily attributable to the rise in the price of bitcoin and increase in our bitcoin holdings compared to the prior year period.
We recognized a gain on the change in fair value of derivative instrument of $42.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to a loss of $35.2 million in the prior year period, primarily due to movements in electricity forward curve prices during the respective periods and the amendment of the commodity swap contract in the second quarter of 2025, lowering the fixed electricity price.
Impairment of assets
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, a severe storm caused irreparable damage to certain mining equipment at our Garden City mining site. In accordance with ASC 360,
Property, Plant, and Equipment
, any unforeseen or unexpected retirements should result in a gain or loss recognized in earnings. As such, we recognized an impairment of $26.0 million related to the damaged miners for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. There were no such impairments in the prior year period.
Taxes other than on income
Taxes other than on income were $7.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $6.0 million in the prior year period.
Early termination expenses
Early termination expenses of $5.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were related to the termination of a management agreement at one of our owned mining facilities, which subsequently transitioned to internal management. In the prior year period, early termination expenses of $38.1 million primarily related to the termination of customer hosting agreements and the forgiveness of an outstanding receivable balance of a customer acquired in the GC Data Center Acquisition.
Research and development
Research and development expenses were $26.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $9.1 million in the prior year period.
Restructuring costs
Restructuring costs were $20.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily consisting of asset write-off charges, contract termination expenses and facility exit costs incurred in connection with our restructuring plan. There were no such expenses in the prior year period.
Other income
Change in fair value of digital assets - receivable, net
We recognized a gain on digital assets - receivables, net of $339.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, resulting from an increase in the fair value associated with our bitcoin loaned, actively managed and pledged as collateral. There were no such activities in the prior year period.
Equity in net earnings of unconsolidated affiliate
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded our share of net loss for our 20% interest in the ADGM Entity of $2.6 million, compared to a loss of $0.8 million in the prior year period. Our share of the ADGM Entity’s operating results included earnings from the production of 135 bitcoin and approximately $9.5 million of depreciation and amortization during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, while in the prior year period, our share of the ADGM Entity’s operating results included earnings from production of 313 bitcoin, a $4.1 million impairment of property and equipment and approximately $9.2 million of depreciation and amortization.
Interest income increased by $30.5 million compared to the prior year period, primarily due to interest income earned on loaned bitcoin under our digital asset management strategy in the current period and a higher average balance of cash and cash equivalents. Interest expense increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 by $30.6 million primarily due to the interest bearing Convertible Notes and the Line of Credit.
Other of $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to net losses within our SMA and internal bitcoin trading activities, partially offset by a net gain on investments of $12.4 million, a reduction to the allowance for credit loss and a gain on extinguishment of debt related to the December 2026 Notes.
Income tax benefit (expense)
We recorded income tax expense of $127.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to an income tax benefit of $42.8 million in the prior year period. The $127.0 million income tax expense primarily reflects changes in pretax book income and loss during the periods, driven largely by fair value adjustments related to digital assets.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In order to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by our management team in financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that have been prepared in accordance with GAAP with the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as (a) GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders plus (b) adjustments to add back the impacts of (1) interest, (2) income taxes, (3) depreciation and amortization and (4) adjustments for non-cash and/or non-recurring items, which currently include (i) stock-based compensation expense, (ii) change in fair value of derivative instrument, (iii) impairment of assets, (iv) restructuring costs, (v) acquisition and integration costs, (vi) net gain from extinguishment of debt, (vii) net gain/loss on investments and (viii) early termination expenses.
Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, along with the supplemental information provided herein, as a means of understanding, managing and evaluating business performance and to help inform operating decision-making. We rely primarily on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to understand, manage and evaluate our financial performance and use non-GAAP financial measures only supplementally.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure to us and to our investors because it excludes certain financial, capital structure and non-cash items that we do not believe directly reflect our core operations and may not be indicative of our recurring operations, in part because they may vary widely across time and within our industry independent of the performance of our core operations. We believe that excluding these items enables us to more effectively evaluate our performance period-over-period and relative to our competitors.
Adjusted EBITDA is
not a recognized financial measure under GAAP. When analyzing our operating results, investors should use Adjusted EBITDA in addition to, but not as an alternative for, the most directly comparable
financial results calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Because our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from that of other companies, our presentation of this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025:
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $838.4 million at September 30, 2025, an increase of $434.6 million from December 31, 2024.
Cash flows from operating activities resulted in a use of funds of $578.0 million, as net income, adjusted for non-cash and non-operating items, in the amount of $122.0 million was offset by the use of cash of $700.0 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. When we produce and hold bitcoin on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, we exclude such bitcoin from our operating cash flows. If we monetize bitcoin in the future, those proceeds are reported as cash flows from investing activities. Changes in cash flows from operating assets and liabilities were primarily driven by a use of funds associated with revenues from operations of $698.3 million.
Cash flows from investing activities resulted in a use of funds of $622.7 million, primarily resulting from the use of funds for advances to vendors of $215.5 million, the purchase of property and equipment of $242.6 million, payment of $36.4 million to acquire the Wind Farm for an additional 114 megawatts of nameplate capacity and the purchase of 2,597 bitcoin for $282.1 million at an average cost to purchase bitcoin of $108,634. The use of funds was partially offset by proceeds from the sale of digital assets of $182.4 million and the sale of property and equipment of $3.7 million.
Cash flows from financing activities provided $1.6 billion, primarily from the periodic issuance of common stock under our 2024 and 2025 ATM programs totaling $571.9 million, the issuance of $1.0 billion of the August 2032 Notes, net of issuance costs, and securing an additional $150.0 million line of credit established and fully utilized as of September 30, 2025. The source of funds were partially offset by $39.8 million of capped call transactions associated with the August 2032 Notes and the repayment of $18.3 million of the December 2026 Notes.
Bitcoin holdings:
At September 30, 2025, we held a total of 52,850 bitcoin, including 17,357 bitcoin under our digital asset management strategy, on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with a total fair value of $6.0 billion. The fair value of a single bitcoin was approximately $114,068 at September 30, 2025.
At September 30, 2025, approximately 10,377 of our total bitcoin holdings were loaned to third parties to generate additional return, 1,903 of our bitcoin holdings were allocated and actively managed under an SMA earning investment income and 5,077 bitcoin were pledged as collateral for outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit. Bitcoin under our digital asset management strategy are classified as “Digital asset - receivables, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with a carrying value of $2.0 billion.
Consistent with our bitcoin investment approach, the remaining 35,493 unrestricted bitcoin were classified as long-term assets under “Digital assets, net of current portion” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with a fair value of $4.0 billion. Our holdings as of September 30, 2025 excluded 11 bitcoin held by our equity method investee, pending dividend to us.
During the third quarter of 2025, we made a strategic change to our bitcoin investment approach and may opt to sell a portion of the bitcoin produced from our mining operations to support our ongoing operating expenses.
We expect that our future bitcoin holdings will generally increase but will fluctuate from time to time, both in number of bitcoin held and fair value in U.S. dollars, depending upon operating and market conditions. We intend to add to our bitcoin holdings primarily through our production activities and from time to time purchases. As a result of our adoption of the aforementioned strategy, we anticipate funding our operating and investing activities principally from available cash and cash equivalents and from our financing activities.
At-the-Market Offering Programs and Proceeds:
As of September 30, 2025, we sold 35,339,308 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $571.9 million, net of commission and offering expenses of $4.9 million, pursuant to the 2024 ATM and 2025 ATM. As of September 30, 2025, approximately $1.5 billion of our common stock remained available for issuance and sale pursuant to the 2025 ATM.
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, totaled $826.4 million and the fair value of digital asset holdings, including bitcoin under our digital asset management strategy, was $6.0 billion at September 30, 2025. The combined value of cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, and digital assets, including bitcoin under our digital asset management strategy, totaled nearly $6.9 billion as of September 30, 2025.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, our operating and investing activities used $1.2 billion of cash. However, we continue to hold a significant digital asset position, which appreciated by $1.0 billion during the period. While we classify our digital assets, net of current portion and digital asset
–
receivable, net as long-term, consistent with our bitcoin investment approach, both asset types are readily convertible to cash. Our significant bitcoin holdings, along with associated unrealized gains, provide a potential source of liquidity if monetized.
Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 we issued a $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 0.0% Convertible Senior notes due 2032. Refer to Note 14
–
Debt in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $350.0 million outstanding under its Line of Credit, with periodic maturities due within the next twelve months.
We expect to have sufficient liquidity, including cash on hand and access to public capital markets, to support ongoing operations in the next 12 months and beyond. We expect to sell a portion of the bitcoin we produce to support ongoing operations and may seek to fund other business activities, particularly growth initiatives, through the public capital markets, primarily through periodic equity issuances using our at-the-market facilities.
The risks to our liquidity outlook would include events that materially diminish our access to capital markets and/or the value of our bitcoin holdings and production capabilities, including:
•
Failure to effectively execute our growth strategies;
•
Declines in bitcoin prices and/or production, as well as impacts from bitcoin halving events, which would impact both the value of our bitcoin holdings and our ongoing profitability;
•
Significant increases in electricity costs if these cost increases were not accompanied by increases in the price of bitcoin, as this would also reduce profitability;
•
Deteriorating macroeconomic conditions, including the impacts of inflation, high interest rates, tariffs and trade wars, a prolonged recession, as well as instability in the banking system; and
•
Failure to access financing on terms acceptable to us or at all.
We expect that Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 122’s rescission of SAB 121, which required an entity to recognize a liability and corresponding asset for its obligation to safeguard crypto-assets, will increase commercial
banks’ activity in our sector and provide us with expanded access to traditional financing, such as debt financing, project financing and other capital. Our access to financing sources on terms acceptable to us or at all is subject to market and other conditions.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS
We entered into an investment agreement on August 11, 2025, to acquire an approximate 64% ownership interest in Exaion SAS, a subsidiary of EDF Pulse Ventures, for approximately $168.0 million, subject to regulatory and antitrust approvals and other customary closing conditions. The agreement also provides the option to increase ownership up to 75% by 2027 through additional contingent payments of up to approximately $127.0 million, based on the achievement of specified performance milestones.
We contract with service providers for hosting our equipment and operational support in data centers where our equipment is deployed. Under these arrangements, we expect to pay at a minimum approximately (i) $54.2 million during the remainder of the calendar year 2025 and (ii) $369.1 million in total payments during the calendar years 2026 through 2028. Under certain arrangements, we are required to pay variable pass-through power and service fees in addition to the estimated minimum amounts.
As of September 30, 2025, we had a remaining commitment of approximately $83.9 million due for the purchase of miners and other mining equipment per our purchase agreements, to be paid in periodic installments throughout 2025.
Assuming the remaining outstanding Convertible Notes are not converted into common stock, repurchased or redeemed prior to maturity, (i) remaining interest payments of approximately $0.1 million and $1.6 million through the remainder of the calendar year 2025 for the December 2026 Notes and the September 2031 Notes, respectively, (ii) annual interest payments of approximately $0.5 million in the 2026 calendar year in connection with the December 2026 Notes and annual interest payments of approximately $6.4 million in each calendar year from 2026 through 2031 in connection with the September 2031 Notes and (iii) principal for each of the Convertible Notes upon maturity, for a total of $3.3 billion, will be payable under the terms of the Convertible Notes. Refer to Note 14
–
Debt in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information.
We have operating and finance lease obligations related to land and office buildings. We expect to make payments of $0.8 million related to operating leases and no payments related to finance leases for the remainder of 2025, and $74.5 million and $89.6 million related to operating and finance leases, respectively, thereafter. Refer to Note 15
–
Leases in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information.
We secured an additional line of credit for $150.0 million in the first quarter of 2025, initially collateralized by 3,250
of
our bitcoin holdings. Together with the existing $200.0 million line of credit established in 2024, the Company had an aggregate of $350.0 million outstanding under its Line of Credit as of September 30, 2025, all of which were fully utilized. Refer to Note 14

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Other than the update to the critical accounting estimates herein, we are not aware of any material changes to our critical accounting estimates set forth under the caption “Critical Accounting Estimates” in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Income Taxes
The primary objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of income taxes payable or refundable for the current year, and to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740,
Income Taxes
, using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated based on enacted tax rates and are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates
is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. Management must make assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine our income tax benefit or expense and deferred tax assets and liabilities. We recognize tax positions when they are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized tax positions are measured at the largest amount of benefit greater than 50% likely of being realized. Each period, we evaluate tax positions and adjust related tax assets and liabilities in light of changing facts and circumstances.
On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), a comprehensive tax reform package containing a wide array of provisions impacting businesses. Among other changes, the OBBBA extends or permanently enacts several business and international tax measures originally introduced under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which were previously scheduled to expire at the end of 2025. The enactment of the OBBBA did not have a material impact on our effective tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, and we do not expect it to materially affect our effective tax rate for 2025.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 2
–
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recent accounting standards and pronouncements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are not aware of any material changes to our disclosures regarding market risks in connection with our bitcoin holdings. Refer to Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report, which is incorporated herein by reference. The following sensitivity analysis supplements our discussion of bitcoin market price risk included in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report:
The fair value of our bitcoin may be materially impacted as the market value of bitcoin fluctuates. For illustrative purposes, a hypothetical $10,000 change in the market price of bitcoin would have resulted in an estimated $528.5 million increase or decrease in our income (loss) before income taxes for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. This sensitivity analysis is based on our bitcoin holdings and related fair value measurement as of that date and is provided solely to demonstrate the potential magnitude of bitcoin price volatility on our financial results. Actual results could differ materially depending on future market conditions, transaction activity and other factors affecting the fair value of digital assets.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in conducting a cost-benefit analysis of possible controls and procedures.
As part of our internal control framework, we maintain a whistleblower hotline that allows employees and third parties to anonymously report concerns or potential misconduct. The hotline may be accessed as follows:
To file a report, use the Client Code “MarathonPG” and pick one of the following options:
Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal controls over financial reporting other than the ongoing remediation efforts undertaken by management.
Other than as disclosed under the caption “Contingencies—Legal Proceedings” in Note 16 – Commitments and Contingencies in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report, we are presently not a party to any material litigation or regulatory proceeding and are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation or regulatory proceeding against us which, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition or cash flows.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Other than the additional risk factors herein, we are not aware of any material changes to the risk factors set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report, which are incorporated herein by reference. The risks described in our Annual Report are not the only ones we face. Additional risks that we currently do not know about or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also impair our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity and future prospects.
Our bitcoin lending arrangements expose us to risks of nonrepayment by borrowers, operational failures and cybersecurity threats, and a material portion of our bitcoin holdings is subject to these risks.
We generate income through bitcoin lending arrangements. As of September 30, 2025, approximately 10,377 bitcoin were loaned to third parties under such arrangements, representing a material portion of our total bitcoin holdings. Lending bitcoin involves risk of default, particularly in a highly volatile market. Borrowers may fail to repay their loans due to market downturns, fraud or other financial challenges. As our bitcoin loans are unsecured, they would rank subordinate to a borrower’s secured loans if the borrower becomes insolvent. Accordingly, we may be unable to recover part or all of the loaned bitcoin, which could result in substantial financial losses.
Additionally, digital asset lending platforms are vulnerable to operational and cybersecurity risks. Technical failures, software bugs or system outages could disrupt lending activities, cause transaction errors or result in inaccurate record-keeping. Cybersecurity threats, including hacking, phishing, social engineering and other malicious attacks, pose further risks, potentially leading to the loss, theft or misappropriation of our loaned bitcoin. A successful cyberattack or security breach involving our loaned bitcoin could materially and adversely impact our financial position, reputation and ability to conduct future lending activities.
Our use of a separately managed account to actively manage a portion of our bitcoin holdings exposes us to significant risks, including market losses, loss of control, counterparty failure and the potential loss of part or all of our investment.
As of September 30, 2025, we held approximately 1,903 bitcoin in a separately managed account with a third-party manager that exercises discretionary authority to actively trade the bitcoin. This structure exposes us to numerous risks beyond those associated with passive holding, including losses resulting from poor investment decisions, trading errors, leverage, concentration or unfavorable market movements.
We do not control the day-to-day management of the account, and we may have limited visibility into the specific strategies, counterparties, or risk exposures involved. The third-party manager or custodian may suffer from operational failures, cybersecurity incidents, mismanagement, fraud or insolvency, any of which could impair our ability to recover some or all of the bitcoin held in the account.
In the event of a material adverse event affecting the manager, custodian or the trading strategy, we could lose a significant portion, or the entirety, of our investment in the account. Such a loss could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Targeted energy or property regulations and taxes could increase our costs and adversely affect our business.
Bitcoin mining requires significant energy consumption, and our operations could be negatively impacted by government regulations or taxes specifically targeting energy usage in digital asset mining. Federal, state or local
authorities may impose restrictions on energy consumption, mandate the use of renewable energy sources or implement higher electricity rates for mining operations, increasing our operating costs. Additionally, governments may introduce taxes on energy usage or carbon emissions that disproportionately affect Bitcoin miners, further reducing our profitability. If regulatory or tax burdens make mining economically unviable in certain jurisdictions, we may be forced to relocate operations, secure alternative power sources at higher costs or scale back our Bitcoin mining activities, all of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Moreover, our Bitcoin mining operations may be negatively impacted by new land use and property laws, regulations or taxes enacted by state or local governments. Governmental authorities have and may continue to pursue and implement legislation and regulation that seeks to limit greenhouse gas emissions and noise generated by our facilities, which could adversely affect our ability to source electricity or mine bitcoin in a potentially material manner. For example, residents of Hood County, Texas, have proposed to incorporate the land housing our Granbury, Texas Bitcoin mining facility. If the land surrounding our Granbury, Texas facility is incorporated, the newly formed municipality could impose additional restrictions and taxes on our operations. New legislation and regulation in other jurisdictions housing our operations could also negatively impact the profitability of our power generation and Bitcoin mining facilities, which could adversely impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
