  1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on November 25, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”).

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim period presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company, and the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation of these entities. The Company has a sole reportable segment which is the bitcoin mining segment.

There were no changes to the Company’s most significant estimates and assumptions, significant accounting policies, or recent accounting pronouncements that were disclosed in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in the Form 10-K other than as discussed below.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances existing income tax disclosure requirements, including requiring greater disaggregation of information in the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and expects to adopt the guidance in its annual report for the current fiscal year ending September 30, 2026.

Segment reporting

CleanSpark operates as a single operating and reportable segment focused on bitcoin mining. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and uses consolidated net (loss) income as the measure of segment (loss) income. The CODM uses consolidated net (loss) income, as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income, to evaluate the Company’s overall profitability and performance, to determine the volume and timing of bitcoin mining to be performed, to allocate and reallocate resources, including miner purchases and expansion projects, and to focus investment where long-term profitability appears most viable.

The CODM is regularly provided with information on certain significant segment expenses, including Cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization), Professional fees, Payroll expenses, General and administrative expenses, Depreciation and amortization, and Loss (gain) on fair value of bitcoin, net. These significant segment expenses are consistent with those presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income, and depreciation expense attributable to miners is disclosed in Note 7 - Property and Equipment. The measure of the Company’s segment assets is reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as total assets. Stock-based compensation is consistent with the amounts presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. All of the Company’s long-lived assets are in the United States. Information about the Company’s revenue and vendor concentrations is included in Note 14 - Revenue and Vendor Concentrations.

Accrued liabilities

The Company records accruals for expenses that have been incurred but not yet invoiced or paid as of each balance sheet date. These accruals are included within current liabilities and represent estimates of obligations for which the timing or amount of payment is uncertain. Accrued liabilities primarily consist of indirect tax exposures, payroll and related benefits, operating expenses, and other miscellaneous accruals arising in the ordinary course of business.

The following table summarizes the composition of the Company’s accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets indicated:

($ in thousands)December 31,2025September 30,2025

(Loss) income per share

The Company reports (Loss) income per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260-10, Earnings Per Share, which provides for calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share.

Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net (loss) income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity. The calculation of diluted net (loss) income per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common shares are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, vesting of restricted stock, and warrants are computed using the treasury stock method. Potential shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes and Series A preferred stock are computed using the if-converted method.

Provided below is the(Loss) income per share calculation for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

Convertible senior notes are reflected in diluted earnings per share using the if-converted method when doing so is dilutive, meaning the additional shares and related interest add-back reduce earnings per share; otherwise, they are excluded as antidilutive. The number of shares excluded from diluted earnings per share for thethree months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 are noted in the table below. Such shares were excluded as their assumed conversion would have been antidilutive or, for preferred stock, because the change-in-control conversion contingency was not satisfied.

Fair value measurement of financial instruments, derivative assets and contingent consideration

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.

Level 1Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes in active exchange markets involving identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. These are typically obtained from readily available pricing sources for comparable assets or liabilities.
Level 3Unobservable inputs, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own beliefs about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available in the circumstances. Due to the use of significant unobservable inputs, a change in those inputs to a different amount might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

The carrying value of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term portion of loan payable are Level 1 and approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of the instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term interest bearing portion of loan payable is also stated at fair value since the stated rate of interest approximates market rates available to the Company for a similar duration. The fair values of warrant liabilities were determined based on Black Scholes option-pricing model using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of the DAM (as defined below) derivative liabilities, as defined in Note 6 - Investments and Derivatives, were also determined based on Black Scholes option-pricing model but utilized historical volatility of bitcoin as an input which is deemed to be a Level 3 input.

The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets on a recurring basis and their level within the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025:

  1. ACQUISITIONS

Texas Acquisition

On October 27, 2025, CleanSpark Data I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an asset purchase agreement with Priority Power Management, Inc., to acquire real estate and a land purchase option in Sealy, Texas.

The Company completed the acquisition for a total purchase price of $65,698, consisting of $20,000 in cash consideration inclusive of a $500 escrow deposit paid in the prior fiscal year, the issuance of 1,788,834 shares of common stock with a fair value of $36,134, deferred consideration of $10,000 with an estimated fair value of $8,874, which is recorded as a debt obligation (see Note 9 - Indebtedness), and $690 of transaction costs. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition, whereby the total purchase price was allocated first to the fair value of the assets acquired and any excess purchase price was allocated to the acquired assets pro-rata. No goodwill is calculated in an asset acquisition.

The allocation of the purchase price of the assets acquired are summarized below:

($ in thousands)Allocation at Acquisition Date
Land$58,047
Other long-term assets7,651
Total$65,698

Other Acquisitions

During the period, the Company completed asset acquisitions in the ordinary course of business. These acquisitions primarily consisted of land and related real estate assets.

The Company completed these acquisitions for an aggregate purchase price of about$1,418 paid in cash, inclusive of customary transaction costs. Each transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition, whereby the total purchase price was allocated to the identifiable assets acquired based on their relative fair values. No goodwill was recognized in connection with these transactions.

  1. BITCOIN

As of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the Company held 11,452 and 10,428 bitcoin, respectively. The following table presents a description of the Company’s bitcoin holdings as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025:

The Company’s bitcoin holdings shown in this note are not subject to rehypothecation and do not serve as collateral for any existing loans or agreements (see Note 5 - Receivable from Bitcoin Collateral). As of December 31, 2025, the Company held no other crypto assets; approximately 99.6% of its bitcoin is held in cold storage and 0.4% is held in hot wallets.

During the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized cumulative realized gains from dispositions of bitcoin of$6,704 and didnot recognize any realized losses.

  1. RECEIVABLE FROM BITCOIN COLLATERAL

Under the terms of certain arrangements, the Company gives away the right to direct the use of bitcoin it has posted as collateral but retains the right to the economic benefits of those bitcoin. In such cases, where control of the collateralized bitcoin has been transferred, the Company records a note receivable equivalent to the fair value of the posted bitcoin. That receivable is reclassified into current bitcoin upon repayment or release of the collateral.

For arrangements that involve transfer of control, as of December 31, 2025, posted bitcoin collateral was related to bitcoin-backed lines of credit (see Note 9 - Indebtedness) and derivative trading relationships with certain counterparties. Lenders and derivative counterparties serve as custodians of collateral posted under these arrangements. The bitcoin collateral posted may fluctuate during the reporting period and it may be returned to our control when positions are closed. The Company expects to continue trading with its counterparties in the normal course of operations and may be required to post collateral in connection with such transactions (see Note 6 - Investments and Derivatives).

The portion of collateral subject to derecognition is presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Receivable from bitcoin collateral. At December 31, 2025, the Company reported Receivable from bitcoin collateral related to 1,648 bitcoin with a fair value of$144,163, compared to 2,583 bitcoin with a fair value of $294,648 posted as of September 30, 2025. At December 31, 2025, all of the bitcoin included in Receivable from bitcoin collateral was a result of bitcoin posted to derivative trading counterparties.

The receivable is initially recognized and subsequently measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recorded in (Loss) gain on bitcoin collateral within Other (expense) income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a loss of$103,620 related to bitcoin collateral, compared to a gain of$42,493 for the three months ended December 31, 2024.

  1. INVESTMENTS AND DERIVATIVES

As of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the Company had total investment assets of$0 and$233, respectively. The Company has not designated any derivatives as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. The Company’s bitcoin-linked derivative activities undertaken as part of its broader bitcoin treasury management strategy are referred to collectively as “Digital Asset Management” (“DAM”). The following table presents the carrying value of all investments and derivative instruments, aside from the Company’s warrant liability, including balances as of September 30, 2025 and activity during the period ended December 31, 2025:

Derivative contracts are measured at fair value, with changes in fair value and settlements recognized in earnings in the period in which they occur. The Company evaluates all financing and service agreements for potential embedded derivative features that may require bifurcation.

All derivative instruments are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and are classified as current or noncurrent based on the expected timing of settlement. Gains and losses related to a derivative executed as part of the Company’s bitcoin treasury management strategy, both realized and unrealized, are reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income within Gain on derivative securities, net within Other (expense) income.

Bitcoin treasury derivatives

The Company enters into bitcoin-linked derivative contracts to economically hedge the volatility of bitcoin prices and to generate liquidity in support of core operating activities. These derivatives are referred to as DAM Derivatives. These contracts serve as a strategic alternative to selling bitcoin directly and are intended to monetize the Company’s bitcoin holdings while managing exposure to adverse price movements. The types of derivatives utilized for this purpose may include bitcoin futures, options, and other structured instruments. These contracts are typically short-term in nature and may be cash-settled or settled in-kind.

During the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company engaged in covered call and futures contracts. The contracts that were settled through physical delivery of bitcoin resulted cash proceeds of$147,165 that are reported within the Proceeds from sale of bitcoin and option settlement line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company recognized a total gain, net, from the covered call and futures DAM activity of$11,923 during the same period which is included in Gain on derivative securities, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. As of December 31, 2025 the Company held$663 of derivative liabilities with respect to its covered call contracts. The Company maintains a small amount of bitcoin collateral with these organizations in connection with such transactions. See Note 5 - Receivable from Bitcoin Collateral for further discussion related to bitcoin posted for collateral.

Interest rate swap derivatives

The Company is party to two interest rate swap agreements. These derivatives are recorded at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in fair value recognized in current earnings within Gain on derivative securities, net.

In relation to the Company’s Western Alliance Bank Credit Agreement entered into in August 2024, the Company holds an interest rate swap agreement (see Note 9 - Indebtedness). As of December 31, 2025, this interest rate swap derivative was recorded as a fair value liability of$63, reflecting a gain of$3 during the three months ended December 31, 2025.

In April 2025, the Company entered into a second interest rate swap agreement in connection with the refinancing of its corporate facility mortgage (see Note 9 - Indebtedness). As of December 31, 2025, the swap derivative was recorded as a fair value liability of$23, reflecting a gain of$4 during the three months ended December 31, 2025.

As of December 31, 2025, the interest rate swap derivatives were recorded as a combined fair value liability of$86. Changes in the fair value of the swaps resulted in a net gain of$7 for thethree months ended December 31, 2025.

Description of outstanding debt

2032 Convertible notes

In November 2025, we issued $1,150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”). The 2032 Notes were issued in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The 2032 Convertible Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company and bear interest at a fixed rate of 0.00% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on August 15, 2026. The 2032 Notes will mature on February 15, 2032. The net proceeds from the sales of the 2033 Notes were approxim ately$1,130,710 after deducting$19,290 of related offering and issuance costs. The unamortized debt issuance costs as of December 31, 2025 were$18,917. The Company used approximately $460,000 of the proceeds to repurchase its common stock (see Note 11 - Stockholders’ Equity). The fair value of the 2032 Notes was determined to be$886,949 as of December 31, 2025 based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, which is considered a Level 2 valuation input. While the 2032 Notes bear a 0% fixed interest rate, the effective interest rate for the notes as of December 31, 2025 was 0.27%, primarily reflecting the accretion of debt issuance costs.

Holders of the 2032 Notes may convert their notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 15, 2031 only under the following circumstances: (i) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2025 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (ii) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per one thousand dollars ($1,000) of principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (iii) if we call such notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the applicable redemption date; or (iv) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after August 15, 2031 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or any portion of their notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion of the 2032 Notes, we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election.

As of December 31, 2025, none of the conditions permitting the holders of the 2032 Notes to convert their notes early had been met, and to require the Company to repurchase the 2032 Notes for cash. Therefore, the 2032 Notes are classified as long-term.

The initial conversion rate for the 2032 Notes is 52.1832 shares of common stock per one thousand dollars ($1,000) of principal amount of 2032 Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $19.16 per share of common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, in connection with a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the 2032 Indenture, dated as of November 13, 2025 (the “2032 Indenture”), by and between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “2032 Trustee”)), which shall include among other things the Company’s delivery of a notice of redemption, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its notes in connection with such a corporate event or redemption, as the case may be.

We may not redeem the 2032 Notes prior to February 20, 2029. Subsequent to February 20, 2029, we may redeem for cash all or part of the 2032 Notes, at our option, if the last reported sales price of 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 we provide notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading days period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date we send the related notice of the redemption, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2032 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. However, we may not redeem less than all of the outstanding notes unless at least $75,000,000 aggregate principal amount of notes are outstanding and not called for redemption as of the time we send related redemption notices. Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the 2032 Indenture), subject to a limited exception described in the 2032 Indenture governing the notes, holders may require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes for cash at a price equal to plus accrued and unpaid special interest to, but not including, the fundamental change repurchase date (as defined in the 2032 Indenture).

The 2032 Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default either the 2032 Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding 2032 Notes may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, on, all the 2032 Notes to be due and payable.

2030 Convertible notes

In December 2024, we issued $650,000 aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”), including the exercise in full by the initial purchasers of the 2030 Notes of their option to purchase up to an additional $100,000 principal amount of the 2030 Notes. The 2030 Notes were issued in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The 2030 Notes will mature on June 15, 2030. The net proceeds from the sales of the 2030 Notes were approximately $633,688 after deducting $16,312 of offering and issuance costs related to the 2030 Notes and before the capped call transactions, as described below. The unamortized debt issuance costs as of December 31, 2025 were$13,222. The Company used $145,000 of the proceeds to repurchase its common stock (see Note 11 - Stockholders’ Equity). The fair value of the 2030 Notes was determined to be$677,053 as of December 31, 2025 based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, which is considered a Level 2 valuation methodology. While the 2030 Notes bear a 0% fixed interest rate, the effective interest rate for the notes as of December 31, 2025 was 0.46%, primarily reflecting the accretion of debt issuance costs.

Holders of the 2030 Notes may convert their notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 15, 2029 only under the following circumstances: (i) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2025 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (ii) during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per one thousand dollars ($1,000) of principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (iii) if we call such notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the applicable redemption date; or (iv) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after December 15, 2029 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or any portion of their notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

Holders of the 2030 Notes have a one-time noncontingent right to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their respective notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the repurchase date on June 15, 2028.

As of December 31, 2025, none of the conditions permitting the holders of the 2030 Notes to convert their notes early had been met, and to require the Company to repurchase the 2030 Notes for cash. The 2030 Notes are classified as long-term.

The initial conversion rate for the 2030 Notes is 67.5858 shares of common stock per one thousand dollars ($1,000) of principal amount of 2030 Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $14.80 per share of common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, in connection with a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the 2030 Indenture, dated as of December 17, 2024 (the “2030 Indenture”), by and between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “2030 Trustee”)), which shall include among other things the Company’s delivery of a notice of redemption, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its notes in connection with such a corporate event or redemption, as the case may be.

Subsequent to June 20, 2028, we may redeem for cash all or part of the 2030 Notes, at our option, if the last reported sales price of 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 we provide notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date we send the related notice of the redemption. However, we may not redeem less than all of the outstanding notes unless at least $75,000 aggregate principal amount of notes are outstanding and not called for redemption as of the time we send related redemption notices. The redemption price of each note to be redeemed will be the principal amount of such note, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any. Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the 2030 Indenture), subject to a limited exception described in the 2030 Indenture governing the notes, holders may require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes for cash at a price equal to plus accrued and unpaid special interest to, but not including, the fundamental change repurchase date (as defined in the 2030 Indenture).

Upon conversion of the 2030 Notes, we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. We may not redeem the 2030 Notes prior to June 20, 2028. We may redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2030 Notes, at our option, on or after June 20, 2028 if the last reported sale price of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for each of at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which such notice of redemption is provided, during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we send the notice of redemption, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. The embedded conversion and redemption features of the 2030 Notes do not meet the criteria for bifurcation and are not recognized as separate derivative instruments.

The 2030 Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default either the 2030 Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding 2030 Notes may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, on, all the 2030 Notes to be due and payable.

Capped calls

In connection with the issuance of the 2030 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “2030 Capped Calls”) with certain financial institutions at an aggregate cost of approximately $90,350. The 2030 Capped Calls cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of common stock underlying the 2030 Notes sold in the offering. By entering into the 2030 Capped Calls, the Company expects to reduce the potential dilution to its common stock (or, in the event a conversion of the 2030 Notes is settled in cash, to reduce its cash payment obligation) in the event that at the time of conversion of the 2030 Notes the trading price of the Company’s common stock price exceeds the conversion price of the 2030 Notes. The cap price of the 2030 Capped Calls is initially $24.66 per share and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the 2030 Capped Calls.

The 2030 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 shareholders’ equity.

Coinbase line of credit and receivable for bitcoin collateral

On August 7, 2024, the Company signed a Master Loan Agreement (the “2024 Master Loan”) with Coinbase Credit, Inc. (“Coinbase Credit” or the “Lender”) for a revolving line of credit pursuant to which the Lender lends the Company certain digital assets or cash. The 2024 Master Loan had a credit limit of $50,000. On or prior to a drawdown, the Company is required to pledge collateral, and the Company has opted to pledge bitcoin to be held in a segregated custody account, such that the loan-to-value ratio of principal outstanding of the loan and the fair value of collateral is equal to or less than 64%. If the value of the collateral under the credit facility decreases past a specified margin, the Company may be required to post additional bitcoin as collateral.

The 2024 Master Loan includes embedded redemption features, which allows the lender to redeem the security before its maturity date (“redemption feature”). The 2024 Master Loan also includes a contingent interest feature that requires additional interest to be paid only if certain conditions are met. One such redemption feature and contingent interest feature is in the event of default, including failure to maintain sufficient collateral, the Lender may liquidate the collateral to satisfy the outstanding loan balance or charge incremental interest at the federal funds rate upon the under-collateralized portion of the loan. The Company assessed the embedded redemption features and the contingent interest feature and determined the features are clearly and closely related to the line of credit and do not require bifurcation. Upon transfer of the bitcoin, the Lender has the exclusive right to sell, pledge and rehypothecate the bitcoin without notice to the Company. Either party can terminate a loan with two days’ notice to the other party. As of the date of this report, no such termination has occurred.

The line of credit is used by the Company in the ordinary course of business to manage operating liquidity, and borrowings are drawn and repaid on a regular basis throughout the fiscal year. Pursuant to the terms, the line of credit initially bore interest of 9% per annum and has no defined maturity date but is terminable by either the Lender or the Company with notice. During September 2024 and September 2025, the interest rate on the line of credit was adjusted to 8.5% per annum and 8.25% per annum, respectively. The interest rate has not been subsequently amended.

Since the Lender has the rights to sell, pledge and rehypothecate the bitcoin during the term of the 2024 Master Loan, the Company derecognized the bitcoin transferred as collateral. As the Company has the right to receive the bitcoin back from the Lender upon the repayment of the line of credit, the Company recorded a corresponding Receivable for bitcoin collateral. The Receivable for bitcoin collateral is measured at fair value. Changes in fair value as well as gains and losses from bitcoin transferred to and received from collateral are recorded as Gain on bitcoin collateral under the Other Income category in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income and comprehensive income.

In April 2025, the Company amended the 2024 Master Loan agreement to expand the availability of borrowings to $200,000, and in September 2025, the Company further amended the facility through a side letter with Coinbase Credit to increase the maximum indicative borrowing capacity to $300,000. All other material terms remained consistent with the prior agreements. As of December 31, 2025, the Company hadno outstanding balance under the facilityand hadno posted bitcoin collateral.

Two Prime line of credit and receivable for bitcoin collateral

On September 19, 2025, the Company entered into a Master Loan Agreement with Two Prime Lending Limited, providing for a revolving line of credit of up to $100,000. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at a rate equal to the one-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 3.55% per annum and mature on September 14, 2026. Similar to the Coinbase facility, borrowings require the Company to pledge bitcoin as collateral. The agreement establishes collateral requirements based on loan-to-value (LTV) ratios, including an initial maximum LTV ratio of approximately 62.5%, a margin call if the LTV exceeds 74%, and a liquidation trigger if the LTV exceeds 80%.

The Company is required to maintain collateral in a designated cold storage wallet with a third-party custodian and retains rights to any forked or airdropped tokens that may result from posted collateral. Consistent with the Company’s accounting for the Coinbase facility, bitcoin posted as collateral is derecognized, with a corresponding receivable for bitcoin collateral recorded at fair value. The receivable is subsequently remeasured at fair value, with changes recognized in (Loss) gain on bitcoin collateral within Other (expense) income.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company hadno outstanding balance under the facility and hadno posted bitcoin collateral.

Western Alliance Bank credit agreement

On August 14, 2024, the Company entered into a credit agreement that provides for borrowings under a promissory note with Western Alliance Bank (the “Western Alliance Bank Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to this agreement, the Company executed a promissory note in the amount of $7,000 in order to finance the purchase of an aircraft for operational use. The aircraft is pledged as collateral for the note. The notes bears a variable interest rate equal to the 30 day SOFR plus 3% per annum, payable monthly, and matures on August 14, 2029.

The credit agreement contains financial covenants, including a minimum loan-to-value ratio, a minimum debt service coverage ratio, and a minimum average deposit balance. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had$5,906 gross principal balance outstanding for the Western Alliance Bank Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with all covenants, and no events of default had occurred under the credit agreement.

Concurrently with the credit agreement, on August 14, 2024, the Company entered into a plain vanilla interest rate swap agreement with a counterparty in which the Company effectively pay a fixed rate of 6.75% on the Western Alliance Bank Credit Agreement. The interest rate swap has an initial notional value of $7,000. This interest rate swap has a maturity date of August 14, 2029. This interest rate swap was not designated as a hedge and is presented within Note 6 - Investments and Derivatives.

Corporate facility mortgage

On May 10, 2023, CleanSpark HQ, LLC, a single member limited liability company and subsidiary wholly owned by the Company, completed a refinancing transaction whereby it borrowed a net $1,937 against the equity of the real property purchased in April 2023 that is utilized as the Company’s corporate office (see Note 7 - Property and Equipment). The loan agreement has atwo-year term,10% interest rate and monthly interest only payments until maturity. In April 2025, the Company refinanced the outstanding balance with Western Alliance Bank through a new $2,000 promissory note through Bank of Nevada. The new loan matures in April 2030, bears interest at a variable rate equal to the one-month Term SOFR plus a margin of 2.85% (initially 7.17% as of the loan date), and requires monthly principal and interest payments based on a five-year amortization schedule.

Marquee Funding Partners debt

As of December 31, 2025, the unpaid balance on the mortgages assumed from the acquisition in August 2022 of a bitcoin mining facility from WAHA Technologies Inc. is$605. The remaining payment terms range from 8-14 months with an annual interest of 13%. The last mortgage matures on March 1, 2027.

Auto and equipment loans and financing

The Company has entered into various financing arrangements to purchase vehicles and non-miner equipment with combined principal outstanding at December 31, 2025 of$3,235. The loans vary in terms from 6-71 months remaining with annual interest rates ranging from 0.0-11.3%. The loans are secured by the purchased vehicles and equipment.

Additionally, on August 28, 2024, the Company entered into an equipment financing agreement with Western Alliance Bank for borrowings of up to $1,000 to finance new equipment for operational purposes. The Company can continue to secure equipment with this equipment financing agreement until February 28, 2025. This instrument bears interest at the Floating Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.00% per annum, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve (12) consecutive thirty (30)-day months, and will be charged for each day there is an outstanding balance. As of December 31, 2025, the financing agreement had an outstanding balance of$826. The Floating Wall Street Journal Prime Rate was 6.75% at the end of the period, resulting in an interest rate of 7.75% per annum as of December 31, 2025. The financing agreement contains financial covenants, including a minimum loan-to-value ratio, a minimum debt service coverage ratio, and a minimum average deposit balance. As of December 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all covenants, and no events of default had occurred under the financing agreement.

  1. INCOME TAXES

The Company has calculated the tax provision based on the year-to-date actual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items in the quarter. The approach is applied when application of the estimated annual effective tax rate is impractical because it is not possible to reliably estimate the annual effective tax rate. The Company believes, at this time, the use of the year-to-date actual effective tax rate approach is more appropriate than the annual effective tax rate method due to the high degree of uncertainty in estimating annual pre-tax income. The quarterly tax provision is subject to fluctuation due to factors including certain book and tax differences, valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, or changes in or interpretation of tax laws. We consider new evidence (both positive and negative) at each reporting date that could affect our view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. We evaluate information such as historical financial results, historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences and available prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in our analysis.

The Company had income tax benefit (including discrete items) of$31,415 and income tax expense of$9,217 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company’s effective income tax rate (including discrete items) was 7.7% and 3.6% for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to maintaining a valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets. The unrealized loss on fair market value of bitcoin for thethree months ended December 31, 2025 reduced the unrealized gain on fair market value of bitcoin cumulative taxable temporary difference as of September 30, 2025. This reduced its ability to be used as a source of income to recognize deferred tax assets in future periods, resulting in an increase in the valuation allowance of $55,421.

The Company currently maintains a valuation allowance on its U.S. deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance assessment involves significant judgment and is sensitive to the availability, timing, and character of taxable income sources (including reversals of taxable temporary differences), and other factors. Accordingly, it is reasonably possible that the valuation allowance could change materially in the next 12 months. Any such change would be recorded as a non-cash income tax expense or benefit in the period recognized.

U.S. importation tariffs

On or about May 27, 2025, the Company began receiving invoices from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency (“CBP”) asserting Chinese origin import tariffs on certain miners imported from April 2024 through June 2024. In addition to the documentation received by the Company during importation that validates non-Chinese origin, the seller of the miners has consistently represented to the Company that the country of origin of the mining hardware was not China, as required by the applicable purchase agreements. In the event that CBP were to successfully defend their allegations of Chinese origin and assert import duties for Chinese origin to all imported miners from April 2024 and forward, the Company’s total tariff liability in respect of previously purchased miners could rise to approximately $185,000, not including statutory interest. The Company believes the CBP allegation of Chinese origin on its imported miners to be without merit and intends to defend against these charges vigorously.

While the outcome of this matter is uncertain at this time, the Company has determined it is not probable that it will result in a future cash outflow and, as such, no provision was recorded as of December 31, 2025.

Legal contingencies

In addition to the legal matters disclosed below, the Company may from time to time be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. The outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. If one or more legal matters were resolved against the Company in a reporting period for amounts above management’s expectations, the Company’s financial condition and operating results for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected.
