Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) and these notes (“Notes”) have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of such interim results. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts are stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, except for: share, per share, megawatt hours (“MWh”) and miner quantities; bitcoin quantities, prices and hash rate; cost to mine one bitcoin; and production value of one bitcoin mined.
The results in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and these Notes include required estimates and assumptions of management, and they are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025, or for any future interim period. Further, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and these Notes do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for a complete presentation of annual financial statements. As such, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and these Notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and notes thereto, included in the 2024 Annual Report.
Use of estimates
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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include revenue recognition; valuation of the derivative asset classified under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy; determination of the useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets; impairment analysis of fixed assets and finite-lived intangibles; impairment analysis of goodwill; allocating the fair value of purchase consideration to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business acquisitions; stock-based compensation; and the valuation allowance associated with the Company’s deferred tax assets.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and these Notes. The reclassifications did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. The impact on any prior period disclosures was immaterial.
Significant Accounting Policies
Except for the updates noted below, see the Company’s 2024 Annual Report for a detailed discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies.
Accounts receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable balance consists of amounts due from its mining pool operator and engineering customers. The Company records accounts receivable at the invoiced amount less an allowance for any potentially uncollectible accounts under the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) impairment model and presents the net amount of the receivable expected to be collected.
The CECL impairment model requires an estimate of expected credit losses, measured over the contractual life of an instrument, which considers forecasts of future economic conditions in addition to information about past events and current conditions. The model also provides a practical expedient, which allows entities to forgo developing forecasts of economic conditions. The Company has elected to apply this practical expedient to determine expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and contract assets, assuming conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. Based on this model, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, customer creditworthiness and collection history. Bad debts are written off after all collection efforts have ceased.
Restricted bitcoin
The Company has pledged certain of its bitcoin as collateral for certain of its debt facilities. This restricted bitcoin is owned by the Company and is held in a segregated custody account in the Company’s name. The lender is not permitted to use such bitcoin to secure any other loan or account. Consistent with the Company’s other bitcoin holdings, restricted bitcoin is recorded at fair value, as determined using the period-end closing price of bitcoin on the Company’s principal market, Coinbase, and changes in fair value are recognized inChange in fair value of bitcoin, in Operating income (loss) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Leases
The Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at the inception of the arrangement. If a lease is determined to exist, the term of such lease is assessed based on the date on which the underlying asset is made available for the Company’s use by the lessor. The Company’s assessment of the lease term reflects the non-cancelable term of the lease, inclusive of any rent-free periods and/or periods covered by early-termination options which the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise, as well as periods covered by renewal options which the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company also determines lease classification as either operating or finance at lease commencement, which governs the pattern of expense recognition and the presentation reflected on the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the lease term.
For operating leases with a term exceeding 12 months and finance leases, a lease liability is recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at lease commencement reflecting the present value of its fixed minimum payment obligations over the lease term. A corresponding operating lease right-of-use asset equal to the initial lease liability is also recorded, adjusted for any prepaid rent and/or initial direct costs incurred in connection with execution of the lease and reduced by any lease incentives received. For purposes of measuring the present value of its fixed payment obligations for a given lease, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate, determined based on information available at lease commencement, as rates implicit in its leasing arrangements are typically not readily determinable. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate reflects the rate it would pay to borrow on a secured basis and incorporates the term and economic environment of the associated lease.
For the Company’s operating leases, fixed lease payments are recognized as lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, any fixed lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and are not recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as an accounting policy election. Leases qualifying for the short-term lease exception were insignificant. Variable lease costs are recognized as incurred and primarily consist of common area maintenance and utility charges not included in the measurement of right of use assets and operating lease liabilities.
For the Company’s finance leases, fixed lease payments are recognized as amortization of the right-of-use asset and interest expense is recognized on the outstanding lease liability using the effective interest method. Finance lease right-of-use assets are amortized
into depreciation and amortization expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term or, if the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company, the life of the leased asset.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company continually assesses new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequences of such change to its Consolidated Financial Statements and ensures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements properly reflect the change.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09,Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures(“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 expands existing income tax disclosures for rate reconciliations by requiring disclosure of certain specific categories and additional reconciling items that meet quantitative thresholds and expands disclosures for income taxes paid by requiring disaggregation by certain jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact the updated guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures and will update its disclosures for the year ending December 31, 2025, based on the requirements of ASU 2023-09.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03,Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)(“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires, in the notes to the annual and interim financial statements, disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact the updated guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05,Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets(“ASU 2025-05”). ASU 2025-05 simplifies credit loss calculations and permits the election of a practical expedient to assume that conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when estimating credit losses on current accounts receivable and current contract assets under ASC 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2025-05 effective January 1, 2025 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2025-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06,Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software(“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 updates the accounting for costs related to the development of internal-use software to reflect the evolution of software development from a sequential to an agile development method by removing references to project stages in the existing guidance and requiring capitalization of software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding a software project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used as intended. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year. The Company adopted ASU 2025-06 effective January 1, 2025 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2025-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Note 3. Acquisitions
Rhodium Settlement and Acquisition of Assets
On April 28, 2025, the Company’s subsidiary, Whinstone US, Inc. (“Whinstone”) acquired certain assets owned by Rhodium Encore LLC (together with its affiliates, “Rhodium”) that were located at the Rockdale Facility, assumed Rhodium’s 125 MW of power capacity at the Rockdale Facility, terminated the legacy hosting agreements with Rhodium, and settled all existing litigation between the parties for total consideration of $185.0 million (the “Rhodium Settlement”). The total consideration consisted of approximately $129.9 million in cash, the return of Rhodium’s power security deposit of approximately $6.1 million, and 6,989,800 shares of Company common stock, valued at $49.0 million based on the precedingten trading day volume-weighted average share price immediately prior to the date of execution. The terminated legacy hosting contracts with Rhodium had a remaining term through December 2030 (see Note 4.Revenue from Contracts with Customers for more information). The settled litigation and claims include all existing claims between the parties, and any and all claims, or future claims, arising under the hosting contracts.
The acquired set of assets did not meet the definition of a business as defined in ASC 805,Business Combinations, as no substantive processes or employees were acquired. The assets acquired consisted primarily of bitcoin miners and related equipment, which are included inProperty and equipment, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the tangible assets acquired was estimated to be $7.3 million and was determined using the cost approach, which utilizes replacement cost as an indicator of fair value. The key assumptions included replacement cost new, effective age, and remaining useful life, as well as physical deterioration factors. No identifiable intangible assets were acquired, no goodwill was recognized, andno liabilities were assumed in connection with the transaction.
In connection with the contract termination and the elimination of the Company’s future obligations under it, the Company relieved approximately $14.9 million of previously recognized deferred revenue (see Note 4.Revenue from Contracts with Customers).
The remaining portion of the transaction value is attributable to the combined impact of terminating the Company’s legacy hosting agreement and settling preexisting litigation with Rhodium, both of which stemmed from an ongoing contractual dispute. The legacy hosting agreement contained terms that were significantly unfavorable compared to prevailing market conditions for similar arrangements. As a result of the termination and settlement, the Company recognized a loss of $158.1 million, which is presented asLoss on contract settlement on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. This loss represents the residual amount after accounting for the total consideration transferred and the tangible assets acquired as part of the transaction.
E4A Solutions Acquisition
On December 16, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests of E4A Solutions, LLC (“E4A Solutions”), a Texas-based provider of electrical engineering solutions, for total consideration of approximately $54.4 million, which was comprised of $51.8 million paid in cash from the Company’s existing cash and a contingent purchase price payable to the sellers with an estimated fair value at acquisition of $2.6 million (the “E4A Solutions Acquisition”). Under the contingent purchase price payable, the sellers are eligible to earn potential earn-out targets based on E4A Solutions’ adjusted EBITDA during the two years ending December 31, 2026, payable in cash or Riot common stock at the Company’s discretion. The potential earn-out is calculated as 2.65 times the amount that the average E4A Solutions’ adjusted EBITDA exceeds the prescribed earn-out threshold.
The E4A Solutions Acquisition builds on Riot’s vertically integrated strategy by adding engineering expertise to service its own existing and future electrical infrastructure and allows the Company to provide electrical solutions and services to support the rapidly growing market for electrical infrastructure.
The E4A Solutions Acquisition was accounted for as an acquisition of a business using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values on the date of acquisition. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has completed a preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration. Therefore, the allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed is based on provisional estimates and is subject to continuing management analysis, with assistance from third party valuation advisors. The Company expects to finalize the valuation of these assets and liabilities, and consideration transferred, as soon as practicable, but not later than one year from the acquisition date. Any changes to the preliminary estimates of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as adjustments to those assets and liabilities, and any residual amounts will be allocated to goodwill.
The following table presents the preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration:
| | | | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cash and cash equivalents | | $915 | |
| Accounts receivable | | | 3,958 |
| Prepaid expenses and other current assets | | | 169 |
| Contract assets | | | 1,152 |
| Property and equipment | | | 136 |
| Operating lease right-of-use asset | | | 612 |
| Finite-lived intangible assets: | | | |
| Customer contracts | | | 23,100 |
| Trademark | | | 1,100 |
| Accounts payable | | | (1,446) |
| Deferred revenue, current portion | | | 352 |
| Accrued expenses | | | (254) |
| Operating lease liability, current portion | | | (323) |
| Operating lease liability, less current portion | | | (289) |
| Other long-term liabilities | | | (53) |
| Total identifiable assets and liabilities acquired | | | 29,129 |
| Goodwill | | | 25,287 |
| Total purchase consideration | | $54,416 |
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, other long-term assets, accounts payable, contract liabilities, accrued expenses, and other long-term liabilities were determined to be their carrying values due to the immaterial and/or short-term nature of the assets and liabilities.
The finite-lived intangible assets consist of a trademark and customer relationships. The fair value of the trademark was estimated using the relief-from-royalty rate method, which estimated future royalty charges attributable to the trademark. The fair value of the customer relationships was estimated using the income approach, which estimated future revenues and costs associated with the existing customer relationships. The estimated fair values of the trademark and customer relationships utilized adiscount rate of 13.4%.
The right-of-use asset and operating lease liabilities consisted of an operating lease of office and commercial space in Houston, Texas. The lease has annual payments of approximately $0.4 million and a remaining lease term of approximatelytwo years as of the date of the acquisition.
Goodwill was attributable to the assembled workforce of experienced personnel at E4A Solutions and synergies expected to be achieved from the combined operations of the Company and E4A Solutions. The goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill was assigned to the Engineering reportable segment.
The operating results of E4A Solutions have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations since the acquisition date. Through September 30, 2025, approximately $2.8 million of acquisition-related costs were expensed as incurred.
Block Mining Acquisition
On July 23, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests of Block Mining, Inc. (“Block Mining”), a vertically integrated bitcoin mining company based in Kentucky, for total consideration of approximately$113.6 million(the “Block Mining Acquisition”). The purchase price consisted of$13.5 million in cash (adjusted for net working capital acquired and other items, excluding the payoff of debt of$5.0 million, which was accounted for as a transaction separate from the Block Mining Acquisition) from the Company’s existing cash,7.2 million shares of Riot common stock valued at approximately$74.0 million at acquisition, and a contingent purchase price payable to the sellers with an estimated fair value at acquisition of$26.1 million. Under the terms of the contingent purchase price payable, the sellers may earn up to an additional$32.5 million if certain previously agreed upon milestones are reached by December 31, 2025.
The Block Mining Acquisition immediately enhanced the Company’s operational capabilities by increasing its total hash rate, expanding Riot’s geographic footprint, and providing access to additional energy markets beyond the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (“ERCOT”). These markets include the Paducah Power Systems, Tennessee Valley Authority, and Big Rivers Electric Corporation, all located within the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (“MISO”) region. Block Mining consists oftwo operational sites, both in Kentucky, and includes existing operational Bitcoin Mining capacity, with the potential to expand. In addition, Block Mining owns a greenfield development site adjacent to an existing substation, representing a strategic opportunity for scalable growth. Known for its capital-efficient development model and experienced management team, Block Mining strengthens the Company’s ability to execute on its vertically integrated strategy and enhances its long-term positioning in the Bitcoin mining sector.
The Block Mining Acquisition was accounted for as an acquisition of a business using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values on the date of acquisition. As of June 30, 2025, the Company completed a preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration. The Company finalized the valuation of these assets and liabilities, and consideration transferred, as of June 30, 2025. The finalization of the valuation did not result in any adjustments to any of the amounts presented below.
The following table presents the allocation of the purchase consideration:
| | | | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cash and cash equivalents | | $6,295 | |
| Accounts receivable | | | 362 |
| Prepaid expenses and other current assets | | | 2,877 |
| Property and equipment | | | 20,165 |
| Operating lease right-of-use asset | | | 3,733 |
| Accounts payable | | | (1,471) |
| Accrued expenses | | | (1,180) |
| Operating lease liability, current portion | | | (2,410) |
| Operating lease liability, less current portion | | | (1,323) |
| Long-term debt | | | (10,678) |
| Total identifiable assets and liabilities acquired | | | 16,370 |
| Goodwill | | | 97,212 |
| Total purchase consideration | | $113,582 |
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses was determined to be their respective carrying values due to the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities. The fair value of the acquired trade receivables was determined to be the net realizable amount of the closing date book value of$0.4 million.
The fair value of property and equipment was estimated by applying the cost approach, which uses the replacement cost as an indicator of fair value. The assumptions of the cost approach include replacement cost new and physical deterioration factors, including remaining life and effective age. The replacement cost new was based on a price per terahash consistent with prices the Company pays for new bitcoin miners and an effective age of three years, consistent with the Company’s current estimated useful life of bitcoin miners.
The right-of-use asset and operating lease liabilities consisted of an operating lease of a data center in Calvert City, Kentucky. The lease has annual payments of approximately$1.4 million and a remaining lease term of approximately 3.0 years as of the date of the acquisition.
The assumed debt consisted of a$5.0 million secured loan and a$5.7 million note payable. The secured loan was paid off on the date of acquisition. The note payable carries a fixed rate of 8.81%, and matures in December 2035, with annual principal and accrued interest payments beginning on December 31, 2024. The fair value of the debt at acquisition of$5.7 million was determined to equal its carrying value due at acquisition as the interest rate is reasonably consistent with rates the Company would expect to incur for similar debt instruments.
Goodwill was attributable to the assembled workforce of experienced personnel at Block Mining and synergies expected to be achieved from the combined operations of the Company and Block Mining. The goodwill recognized is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill was assigned to the Bitcoin Mining reportable segment.
The operating results of Block Mining have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations since the acquisition date. Through September 30, 2025, approximately$2.9 million of acquisition-related costs were expensed as incurred.

Note 9. Power Supply Agreements
Rockdale Facility
Power Purchase Agreement
In May 2020, Whinstone entered into a long-term power purchase agreement (the “Rockdale PPA”) to provide power at fixed prices to the Rockdale Facility, via the nearby Sandow Switch. Pursuant to the Rockdale PPA, the Company agreed to acquire a total of 345 MW of long-term, fixed-price power, in multiple blocks, as follows:130 MW contracted in May 2020, through April 30, 2030;65 MW contracted in March 2022, through April 30, 2030; and 150 MW contracted in November 2022, through October 31, 2027. Additionally, the Rockdale PPA allows the purchase of additional power at market prices, as needed.
Under the Rockdale PPA, the Company may also elect not to utilize its long-term, fixed-price power for its operations, and instead elect to sell that power in exchange for credits against future power costs when there is a benefit to the Company, depending on the spot market price of electricity. The Company’s power strategy combines participation in Demand Response Services Programs, as defined below, participation in ERCOT’s Four Coincident Peak (“4CP”) program, and sales of power, to attempt to manage operating costs most efficiently.
During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company earned credits against future power costs in exchange for power resold of approximately $30.6 million and $12.4 million, respectively, and approximately $46.7 million and $31.4 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. These amounts are recorded inPower curtailment credits on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company determined the Rockdale PPA meets the definition of a derivative because it allows for net settlement. However, because the Company has the ability to offer the power back for sale outside of the Rockdale PPA, rather than taking physical delivery, the Company determined that physical delivery is not probable through the entirety of the contract and therefore, the Company does not believe the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception applies to the Rockdale PPA. Accordingly, the Rockdale PPA (a non-hedging derivative contract) is accounted for as a derivative and recorded at its estimated fair value each reporting period inDerivative asset on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with the change in the fair value recorded inChange in fair value of derivative asset on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Rockdale PPA is not designated as a hedging instrument. The Facilities Agreement (as defined below), Demand Response Service Programs (as defined below), and the ERCOT 4CP program (the “4CP Program”) are not part of the Rockdale PPA and are therefore not subject to treatment and valuation as a derivative along with Rockdale PPA.
The terms of the Rockdale PPA require margin-based collateral, calculated as exposure resulting from fluctuations in the market cost rate of electricity versus the fixed price stated in the contract. As of September 30, 2025, the margin-based collateral requirement waszero.
While the Company manages operating costs at the Rockdale Facility in part by periodically selling back unused or uneconomical power, the Company does not consider such actions to be trading activities.
Demand Response Services Programs
Concurrently with the Rockdale PPA, Whinstone entered into an interconnection agreement for the extension of delivery system transmission/substation facilities to facilitate delivery of electricity to the Rockdale Facility (the “Facilities Agreement”). Power costs incurred under the Facilities Agreement were determined every 15 minutes using settlement information provided by ERCOT and recorded inCost of revenueon the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the construction of the interconnection was completed and power costs under the Facilities Agreement are no longer being incurred.
ERCOT has implemented demand response services programs for customers like the Company that have the ability to reduce or modify electricity use in response to ERCOT instructions or signals (“Demand Response Services Programs”). These Demand Response Services Programs provide the ERCOT market with valuable grid stability and economic services by helping to preserve system reliability, enhancing competition and load predictability, mitigating price spikes, and stabilizing the grid by encouraging the
demand side of the market to give more visibility and control of their power consumption to grid operators. Market participants with flexible electrical loads, like the Company, may participate in these Demand Response Service Programs directly by offering their electrical loads into the ERCOT markets, or indirectly by voluntarily reducing their energy usage in response to increasing power demand in the ERCOT marketplace. The Demand Response Services Programs run concurrent with the Rockdale PPA.
Under these Demand Response Services Programs, the Company can participate in various ancillary services by designating a portion of its available electrical load for forward market bidding. Participation in the Demand Response Services Programs is compensated based on hourly power rates and the volume of load bid into each program. Through ancillary services, the Company competitively bids among other market participants to sell ERCOT the ability to control the Company’s electrical load on demand. This requires the Company to remain powered on during the times in which its power is bid into ancillary services, allowing ERCOT the ability to direct the Company to power down the amount of power bid into the program. The Company receives compensation for its participation in ancillary services whether or not the Company is actually called to power down.
The Company also participates in the 4CP Program, which refers to the highest-load settlement intervals in each of the four summer months (June, July, August, and September), during which demand for power is typically at its highest across the ERCOT grid. The 4CP Program participants may voluntarily power down operations during these times and in doing so, reduce the electrical load demand on the ERCOT grid. Participants that reduce their load in these peak periods receive credits toward transmission costs on future power bills for the subsequent year, reducing overall power costs for the year. As a result of participation in the 4CP Program in 2024, the Company’s ongoing 2025 monthly power bills reflect substantially reduced transmission charges. The 4CP Program has an indefinite duration.
Corsicana Facility
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s subsidiary, Riot Corsicana, LLC, entered into an agreement with ICE Futures U.S., Inc., a subsidiary of the InterContinental Exchange to access the exchange for the execution of electricity futures contracts. The Company intends to enter into electricity futures contracts up to the amount of power used at the Corsicana Facility. These financial instruments meet the definition of derivatives, but are not designated as hedging instruments, and will be recognized at fair value, with any gains or losses recognized inNet income (loss) on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company enters into electricity futures contracts to manage electricity price risks and reduce the variability of cash flows associated with purchases of electricity used for the Company’s Bitcoin Mining operations at its Corsicana Facility.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company held outstanding electricity futures contracts for 40,576 MWh with a combined fair value of $1.5 million included inPrepaid expenses and other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, realized and unrealized losses of $0.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and less than $0.1 million in each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, were recognized inOther income (expense) on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s subsidiary, Riot Corsicana, LLC, also entered into a requirements contract with MEMS Industrial Supply (“MEMSIS”) under which it will purchase retail power to meet the consumption requirements of the Corsicana Facility. Electric power will be invoiced by MEMSIS based upon the market price for electric power at the ERCOT North Load Zone, plus a retail adder corresponding to the peak consumption threshold of the Corsicana Facility, and pass-through charges (including ancillary charges, taxes, congestion, and line loss), based on the actual variable consumption of the Corsicana Facility. The contract, dated November 12, 2024, has a 3-year term ending November 25, 2027. Although this contract does not require the supply of power at a fixed price, it allows the parties to enter into fixed-price contracts.
Under the requirements contract with MEMSIS, during the year ended December 31, 2024, Riot and MEMSIS entered into a power purchase agreement (the “Corsicana PPA”), a three-year contract (January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2027, but excluding July and August contracts during the period) for a fixed quantity of 25 MW at a fixed price of $43.95 per MWh.
The Company determined the Corsicana PPA meets the definition of a derivative and, accordingly, the Corsicana PPA (a non-hedging derivative contract) is recorded at its estimated fair value each reporting period inDerivative asset on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with the change in the fair value recorded inChange in fair value of derivative asset on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The requirements contract is not designated as a hedging instrument.
Kentucky Facility
In April 2021, the Company’s subsidiary, Block Mining, entered into a long-term power purchase agreement (the “Kentucky PPA”) to provide power to one of its locations in Kentucky. Pursuant to the Kentucky PPA, the Company has the ability, but not the obligation, to acquire up to a total of 67 MW of power at one of its facilities through mid-April 2041. The all-in power rate includes a portion of the total fee that is at a fixed rate and another portion that adjusts annually. The Company determined the Kentucky PPA does not meet the definition of a derivative because it does not contain any net settlement provisions.
Under the Kentucky PPA, the Company may also elect not to utilize its long-term, fixed-price power for its operations, and instead elect to sell that power back into the MISO grid in exchange for credits against future power costs when there is a benefit to the Company, depending on the spot market price of electricity. The Company’s power strategy combines participation in Demand Response Services Programs and sales of power, to attempt to manage operating costs most efficiently.
Derivative Asset
The following table presents the unobservable inputs used in the valuation of theDerivative asset:

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Valuation Date · · · Significant Unobservable Input · · Range · · Average | |||||||||
| September 30, 2025 | | | Forward prices (per MWh) | | $35.55 | - | $105.18 | | $55.90 |
| December 31, 2024 | | | Forward prices (per MWh) | | $31.22 | - | $95.58 | | $51.98 |
The following table presents changes in the estimated fair value of theDerivative asset:
| | | | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Balance as of January 1, 2025 | | $149,495 | |
| Change in fair value of derivative asset: | | | |
| Change due to future price curve | | | 22,784 |
| Change due to passage of time and settlements | | | (12,845) |
| Total change in fair value of derivative assets | | | 9,939 |
| Balance as of September 30, 2025 | | $159,434 |
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the total change in fair value of the derivative assets was $10.8 million, which consisted of $20.8 million for the change due to the future price curve and $(10.0) million for the change due to the passage of time and settlements.
The estimated fair values of the Rockdale PPA and Corsicana PPA are classified under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the significant unobservable inputs utilized in the valuation. These inputs include the fixed price of each block for the 345 MW of power to be delivered under the Rockdale PPA and 25 MW of power to be delivered under the Corsicana PPA. The valuation relies on discounted cash flow estimation models incorporating quoted commodity exchange spot and forward prices in MWh adjusted for basis spreads for load zone-to-hub differentials through the term of the Rockdale PPA, which is scheduled to end as of April 30, 2030, and the term of the Corsicana PPA, which is scheduled to end as of December 31, 2027, and a discount rate of 23.4%. Actual power usage is not a variable input in the determination of the fair value as the price and quantity of power to be delivered per the Rockdale PPA and the Corsicana PPA are fixed despite the existence of multiple blocks with separate power amounts.
The discount rate reflects the nature of the contract as it relates to the risk and uncertainty of the estimated future mark-to-market adjustments, forward price curves of the power supply, broker/dealer quotes, and other similar data obtained from quoted market prices or independent pricing vendors, risk-free rate of return, which is determined from United States Treasury Bond yields, estimated cost of debt, which includes a Moody’s rating, and an equity risk premium based upon market data provided by a global cost of capital service provider. The discount rate includes observable market inputs, but also includes unobservable inputs based on qualitative judgment related to Company credit risk.

Stock Options
In June 2025, the Company granted approximately 1.2 million performance-based stock option awards under the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. The stock option awards are eligible to vest inone-third increments upon meeting certain specified data center development-based EBITDA milestones through December 31, 2029.
The vesting of all options is contingent upon continued service with the Company through each of the applicable milestones. All vested options are exercisable through December 31, 2030.
As of the grant date, the fair value per share underlying each stock option award was$5.99 and the total fair value of all options granted was approximately$7.0 million. The total fair value is recognized ratably as stock-based compensation expense for each performance milestone over its implied service period, based on the estimated probability of achieving such milestone, through December 31, 2029.
The Company estimated the fair value of the stock option awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, utilizing the following inputs:
| ● | The grant date exercise price/strike price of $8.07, equal to the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant; |
| ● | An expected award term of approximately five years determined using the simplified method, which uses the midpoint between the vesting period and the contractual term; |
| ● | Contractual term of approximately five years based on the expiration date of vested awards; |
| ● | A risk-free rate of 3.93% based on U.S. Treasury yields over the expected life of the options granted; and |
| ● | Expected volatility of future equity of 94.7% based on the average of the Company’s own historical volatility over the past five years and the implied volatility over the five-year term. |
The following table presents a summary of the activity of the stock options:

| Balance as of September 30, 2025 | 1,166,861 | | $8.07 | |
As of September 30, 2025, there was approximately $6.5 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average vesting period of approximately 3.3 years. The weighted average remaining contractual term of the options is approximately 5.3 years.
The intrinsic value of the stock options was approximately $12.8 million. The intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the Company’s closing stock price of $19.03 on September 30, 2025 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options that would have been received by the option holder, had the holder been able to exercise the options on September 30, 2025.

Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:
In addition to assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we also measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Non-financial assets, including goodwill, intangible assets, operating lease right of use assets, and property and equipment, are measured at fair value when there is an indication of impairment and the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s projected undiscounted cash flows. These assets are recorded at fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, contract assets, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, contract liabilities, and accrued expenses approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Legal Proceedings
The Company, and our subsidiaries, are subject at times to various claims, lawsuits and governmental proceedings relating to our business and transactions arising in the ordinary course of business. We cannot predict the final outcome of such proceedings. Where appropriate, we vigorously defend such claims, lawsuits and proceedings. Some of these claims, lawsuits and proceedings seek damages, including direct, consequential, exemplary, and/or punitive damages, in amounts that could, if awarded, be significant.
Certain of the claims, lawsuits and proceedings arising in ordinary course of business are covered by our insurance program. We maintain property and various types of liability insurance in an effort to protect ourselves from such claims. In terms of any matters where there is no insurance coverage available to us, or where coverage is available and we maintain a retention or deductible associated with such insurance, we may establish an accrual for such loss, retention or deductible based on current available information. In accordance with accounting guidance, if it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred as of the date of the financial statements, and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable, then an accrual for the cost to resolve or settle these claims is recorded by us on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. If it is reasonably possible that an asset may be impaired as of the date of the financial statement, then we disclose the range of possible loss. Costs related to the defense of such claims are recorded by us as they are incurred. Management, with the assistance of outside counsel, may from time to time adjust such accruals according to new developments in the matter, court rulings, or changes in the strategy affecting our defense of such matters. On the basis of current information, we do not believe there is a reasonable possibility that any material loss, if any, will result from any claims, lawsuits and proceedings to which we are subject to either individually, or in the aggregate.
Green Revolution Cooling Patent Dispute
On March 22, 2024, Green Revolution Cooling, Inc. (“GRC”) filed a complaint against the Company in the Western District of Texas (Case No. 6:24-CV-152), for patent infringement. More specifically, GRC has alleged that the immersion cooling systems provided to the Company by third parties infringe GRC’s U.S. Patent Nos. 9,992,914 (“the’914 Patent”) and 10,123,463 (“the ’463 Patent”). GRC seeks monetary damages through the time of trial, which is scheduled for February 2026, in excess of $50 million. GRC also seeks an injunction against using all products that allegedly infringe the ’914 Patent and the ’463 Patent, or in lieu of an injunction, an award of a compulsory post-trial royalty of $0.01 per kWh of power used by the immersion cooled buildings. The Company has engaged counsel and is working with its counsel to evaluate and defend the Company from this infringement claim. The Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of such ongoing litigation, or the magnitude of such outcome, at this time.
Northern Data Working Capital Disputes
On September 7, 2022, the Company filed a complaint against Northern Data AG (“Northern Data”) in the Delaware Court of Chancery (Case No. C.A. No. 2022-0792-LWW) disputing the purchase price of Whinstone and seeking declaratory relief and specific performance of the stock purchase agreement (the “Northern Data Case”). On March 31, 2023, the parties filed a stipulation agreeing to dismiss all claims without prejudice and to submit the dispute for final determination to an independent accountant. The Company placed approximately $29.5 million in escrow pending the final determination of the independent accountant, and, on June 9, 2023, the independent accountant rendered a written final determination finding in favor of the Company on disputed issues totaling approximately $27.1 million. Accordingly, approximately $27.1 million of the escrowed amount was released from escrow and distributed to the Company on June 13, 2023, with the remaining approximately $2.4 million held in escrow allocated to Northern Data. As a result, the Company recognized a deferred gain on acquisition post-close dispute settlement of $26.0 million on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Following the final determination, Northern Data filed a complaint against the Company in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the “Chancery Court”) on June 23, 2023 (Case No. C.A. No. 2023-0650-LWW) challenging the independent accountant’s written final determination and seeking to re-litigate the purchase price adjustment process. The Company contested the legal and factual bases of Northern Data’s claims and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on July 17, 2023, which the Chancery Court heard on February 13, 2024. The Chancery Court denied the motion to dismiss on May 17, 2024, at which time the court advised the parties that summary judgment briefing after focused discovery may be a worthwhile endeavor. Both the Company and Northern Data moved for summary judgment on November 6, 2024. On February 17, 2025, the Chancery Court heard the parties’ motions for summary judgment and took the matter under advisement.
On June 2, 2025, the Chancery Court issued a ruling on the parties’ motions for summary judgment which granted the Company’s motion on Count 1 (relating to disputed items totaling approximately $22.5 million) and Northern Data’s motion on Counts 2 and 3 (relating to disputed items totaling approximately $3.8 million). The deadline to appeal the Chancery Court’s ruling was July 18, 2025. Neither the Company nor Northern Data appealed the decision which resolved all claims in the Northern Data Case. As a result of the ruling, the Company recognized a gain of $26.0 million, which is recognized asGain on acquisition post-close settlement dispute on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

On July 21, 2023, Whinstone filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint, which was denied on October 25, 2023. On November 25, 2024, Whinstone asserted counterclaims for breach of contract and fraudulent inducement. SBI attempted to update its alleged damages to over $350 million in purported lost profits through an updated expert report which the court has since stricken. Notwithstanding, Whinstone believes SBI will attempt to recover over $175 million in purported lost profits, which has been previously disclosed, and more than $50 million in equipment replacement cost, plus reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses, and pre- and post-judgment interest. Whinstone believes many of the claims are barred or waived, and that all of SBI’s claims substantively lack merit, and Whinstone plans to vigorously contest the same, as appropriate. While a preliminary investigation of the merits of SBI’s claims has commenced and because this litigation is still at this early stage, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the outcome of such ongoing litigation, or the magnitude of such an outcome, at this time.
GMO
On June 13, 2022, GMO Gamecenter USA, Inc. and its parent, GMO Internet Group, Inc., (collectively “GMO”) filed a complaint against Whinstone alleging breach of a colocation services agreement between GMO and Whinstone, which has since been terminated, seeking damages in excess of $150.0 million for lost profit and profit sharing payments GMO alleges it was owed from Whinstone. The case is pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Case No. 1:22-cv-05974-JPC). Whinstone has responded to GMO’s claims and raised counterclaims of its own, alleging GMO itself breached the colocation services agreement, seeking a declaratory judgment and damages in excess of $25.0 million. On October 19, 2023, GMO filed its fourth amended complaint claiming an additional $496.0 million in damages, for loss of future profits and future profit sharing payments GMO alleges would have been received through the term of the agreement, based on Whinstone’s allegedly wrongful termination of the colocation services agreement as of June 29, 2023. On August 26, 2025, GMO filed its fifth amended complaint including the Company as a defendant. On September 29, 2025, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the fifth amended complaint, and that motion is currently pending before the court. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the outcome of such ongoing litigation, or the magnitude of such an outcome, at this time.

Note 19. Segment Information
The Company hastwo reportable segments: Bitcoin Mining and Engineering. The reportable segments are identified based on the types of services performed. No operating segments have been aggregated to form the reportable segments.
Gross profit (loss) is the segment performance measure the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) uses to assess the Company’s reportable segments and is calculated before the elimination of intersegment profits. The CODM is comprised of several members of its executive management team, including the CEO, Executive Chairman, EVO-CFO, EVP-Head of Corporate Development &
Strategy, and COO. The CODM uses segment gross profit (loss) to assess the performance of, manage the operations of, and allocate capital and operational resources to the Company’stwo reportable segments.
Prior to 2024, the Company had a Data Center Hosting reportable segment but has since terminated all contracts with its Data Center Hosting customers. Commencing with the three months ended March 31, 2024, the CODM ceased analyzing the performance of the Data Center Hosting operations and the Company ceased reporting Data Center Hosting as a separate reportable business segment. The Company has no plans to offer bitcoin mining data center hosting services to new customers. All residual revenue and costs of revenue related to Data Center Hosting incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are included inRevenue: OtherandCost of Revenue: Other on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Other than the $97.2 million of goodwill from the Block Mining Acquisition allocated to the Bitcoin Mining segment, and $25.3 million of goodwill from the E4A Solutions Acquisition allocated to the Engineering segment, the Company does not allocate assets to the reporting segments because its assets are managed on an entity-wide basis and, therefore, does not separately disclose the total assets of its reportable operating segments.
The Bitcoin Mining segment generates revenue from the bitcoin the Company earns through its Bitcoin Mining activities. The Engineering segment generates revenue through customer contracts for custom-engineered electrical products and services. All* Revenue: Other revenue* is from external customers.
All revenue and cost of revenue from intersegment transactions have been eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The following tables present segment revenue and segment gross profit (loss), including the significant expense items reviewed by the CODM:
