Speculative and Volatile Nature of ETH.

Current report

To date, the Company has deployed a portion of the capital it has raised into ETH and its ability to achieve the objectives of its ETH strategy depends, in part, on our ability to purchase ETH. Successfully implementing this strategy may present organizational and infrastructure challenges, and the Company may not be able to fully implement or realize the intended benefits of its strategy. Moreover, the price of ETH is subject to significant volatility. In addition, if it chooses to do so, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to sell its ETH at prices quoted on various cryptocurrency trading platforms or at all if it determines to do so. The supply of ETH is currently controlled by the source code of the Ethereum platform, and there is a risk that the developers of the code and the participants in the Ethereum network could develop and/or adopt new versions of the Ethereum software that significantly increase the supply of ETH in circulation, negatively impacting the trading price of ETH. Given our ETH holdings, any significant decrease in the price of ETH may materially and adversely affect the value of the Company’s securities and, in turn, the Company’s business, results of operation and financial condition.

Current report

The ETH markets are sensitive to new developments, and since volumes are still maturing, any significant changes in market sentiment (by way of sensationalism in the media or otherwise) can induce large swings in volume and subsequent price changes. Such volatility can adversely affect the business and financial condition of the Company.

Current report

Momentum pricing typically is associated with growth stocks and other assets whose valuation, as determined by the public, accounts for anticipated future appreciation in value. The Company believes that momentum pricing of ETH has resulted, and may continue to result, in speculation regarding future appreciation in the value of ETH, inflating and making more volatile the value of ETH. As a result, ETH may be more likely to fluctuate in value due to changing investor confidence in future appreciation, which could adversely affect the business and financial condition of the Company.

Risks Related to WhiteFiber’s Cloud Services and Data Center Operations

Current report

We are subject to the risks and uncertainties of a new business, with limited sources of revenue. The Company began generating revenue from cloud services in Iceland in January 2024. Accordingly, we have only a limited history upon which an evaluation of our prospects and future performance can be made.

Current report

As we grow and develop as a business, we are attempting to reduce the impact of variability on our revenue and colocation costs by entering into long-term contracts at each site. In our data center services, as of September 30, 2025, our contracts with our 14 customers range from 12 to 60 months. In our cloud services business, we provide cloud infrastructure for highly scalable Graphic Processing Units (“GPUs”) accelerated applications, or GPU clusters, to our customers under contracts spanning from month to month to 36 months. As these are new services in the industry, the value and longevity of the GPUs remain uncertain in this rapidly evolving market. Given that we have only a limited history of operating a colocation data center, the long-term profitability of these contracts cannot be presently determined. If we are unable to successfully implement our development plan or to increase our generation of revenue, we will not remain profitable in the future.

Current report

We intend to continue scaling our Company to increase our customer base and implement initiatives, including new business lines and global expansion. These efforts may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate. We may be unable to secure the required financing which may not result in increased revenue or profitability in the short term or at all. We will also incur increased compliance costs associated with growth, expanding our customer base, and being a public company. Our efforts to grow our business may be costlier than we expect, or the revenue growth rate may be slower than we expect. As we pivot towards new markets such as cloud services and colocation data center operations, we realize that our limited experience in these areas may impact our ability to accurately assess our prospects. The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the expenses, difficulties, complications, problems and delays frequently encountered in connection with the expansion of a business, operating a business in a competitive industry, and the continued development of expanding our customer base. There can be no assurance that we will operate profitably in the future.

Current report

We face intense competition in the data centers operations and may not be able to compete with other companies. If we do not continue to innovate in the design and management of data centers in order to offer innovative solutions to store, process and manage digital information, including artificial intelligence (“AI”) and machine learning (“ML”) applications, to our customers and partners, we may not remain competitive, which could harm our business, financial condition, data centers and operating results.

Current report

We may not be able to compete successfully against present or future competitors. We do not have the capital resources to compete with larger providers of similar data centers at this time. Our data centers business environment is rapidly evolving and intensely competitive, and it faces frequent introductions of rival solutions and new technologies. To compete successfully, we must, among other things, accurately anticipate data center technology developments and innovate data centers’ design, management and technologies in a timely manner. As our data centers business evolves, the competitive pressure to innovate will encompass a wider range of technologies and solutions. We must continue to invest significant resources in personnel, technical infrastructure and R&D, including through acquisitions, in order to advance/innovate our data centers. With the limited resources we have available, we may experience difficulties in expanding and improving our data centers. Competition from existing and future competitors, particularly those better capitalized, could result in our inability to secure acquisitions and partnerships that we may need to expand our data centers business in the future. This competition from other entities with greater resources, experience and reputation may result in our failure to maintain or expand our data center business, as we may never be able to successfully execute our business plan. If we are unable to expand and remain competitive, our business could be negatively affected, which would have an adverse effect on the trading price of our Ordinary Shares, which would harm our investors.

Current report

Our purchase orders with hardware manufacturers include extended delivery schedules.

Current report

We rely on third parties to timely obtain an adequate delivery of hardware. Our purchase orders with hardware manufacturers include extended delivery schedules spanning several months before the hardware is delivered to our facilities. These fluctuations in delivery timelines necessitate careful planning and advanced purchasing strategies to ensure we can acquire hardware well before their anticipated deployment. Failure to adequately plan for such fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

Current report

A curtailment or disruption in energy supply in Iceland, Canada or the U.S. due to regulations and policies implemented by their respective governments, which prioritize energy supply, may cause a substantial disruption or discontinuance of WhiteFiber’s data center operations based in Iceland, Canada or prospectively in the U.S., and therefore impair WhiteFiber’s financial condition or results of operations.

Current report

Through WhiteFiber Iceland ehf, the Company established and has been providing cloud services since November 2023, developing a fleet of 554 servers at a third-party data center located in Northern Iceland. Through WhiteFiber’s subsidiary, Enovum, which was acquired in October 2024, we have been operating our data center located in Montreal Canada (MTL-1), and commenced operations in the in the fourth quarter of 2025 at MTL-3. In May 2025, we purchased a former industrial manufacturing building and land outside of Greensboro, North Carolina which we expect to be operational in the first quarter of 2026.

Current report

In order to maintain its data center operations, WhiteFiber and its landlord in Iceland and in Montreal will need to acquire sufficient supplies of electricity generated by hydroelectric, geothermal energy and electricity. In addition, WhiteFiber’s data centers need to also maintain reliable and adequate infrastructure and cooling systems to ensure optimal performance.

Current report

Currently, Icelandic and Canadian-based data centers and similar facilities, including the ones contracted with the Company, may face significant risks of energy disruption, curtailment or discontinuance due to low water levels. Water reservoirs are utilized by hydropower plants, which provide hydro-generated energy in the country. In the event of a water shortage, and therefore a shortage of hydro-generated energy, the prioritization framework for Icelandic energy favors residential and certain business uses over data centers and similar facilities. In addition, volcanic eruptions might interrupt the generation of electricity from geothermal energy, as occurred several times in 2023.

Current report

In addition, we may be subject to risks and unanticipated costs associated with obtaining power from various utility companies. Utilities that serve our data centers may be dependent on, and sensitive to price increases for, a particular type of fuel, including hydroelectric. In addition, the total cost of delivered electricity could increase as a result of: regulations intended to regulate carbon emissions and other pollutants, ratepayer surcharges related to recovering the cost of extreme weather events and natural disasters (including volcanoes in Iceland and floods in North Carolina), geopolitical conflicts, military conflicts, grid modernization charges, as well as other charges borne by ratepayers. Increases in the cost of power at any of our data centers could put those locations at a competitive disadvantage relative to data centers that are supplied power at a lower price.

Current report

Accordingly, the energy supply for WhiteFiber’s data centers may be subject to disruption and could become insufficient to support our operations. WhiteFiber’s financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected if its WhiteFiber data centers are disrupted or discontinued due to a curtailment or interruption of the energy supply.

Current report

Establishing data centers in remote areas may adversely affect our ability to retain staff and increase our compensation costs.

Current report

If we establish data centers in areas with lower populations such as Iceland or remote parts of Canada, recruiting and retaining the necessary staff to operate our locations may pose a challenge. When we encounter a relatively low population, the pool of available employees is limited. In addition, some employers have offered significantly higher wages in order to fill vacant positions. This may adversely affect our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel and may increase our employee costs if we have to increase the compensation we pay in response to the market.

Current report

WhiteFiber’s data centers could be adversely impacted by climate change.

Current report

Severe weather events, such as tornadoes, hurricanes, rain, drought, fire, ice and snowstorms, and high-and low-temperature extremes, occur in regions in which WhiteFiber operates and maintains infrastructure. WhiteFiber’s principal data centers in Iceland and Canada are designed to provide year-round cool weather conditions. Nevertheless climate change could change the frequency and severity of weather events, which may create physical and financial risks to WhiteFiber. Such risks could have an adverse effect on WhiteFiber’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Increases in severe weather conditions or extreme temperatures may cause infrastructure construction projects to be delayed or canceled and limit resources available for such projects resulting in decreased revenue or increased project costs. In addition, drought conditions could restrict the availability of water supplies or limit the ability to obtain water use permits, inhibiting the ability to conduct operations. To date, neither of the Company’s WhiteFiber data centers in Iceland or Canada have experienced any material impacts to its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows due to the physical effects of climate change.

Current report

Our failure to accurately predict our facilities’ and data centers’ requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

The costs of building out, leasing and maintaining our facilities and data centers constitute a significant portion of our capital and operating expenses. In order to manage growth and ensure adequate capacity for our new and existing customers while minimizing unnecessary excess capacity costs, we continuously evaluate our short- and long-term data center capacity requirements. If we overestimate our business’ capacity requirements or the demand for our services and therefore secure excess data center capacity, our operating margins could be materially reduced. If we underestimate our data center capacity requirements, we may not be able to service the required or expanding needs of our existing customers and may be required to limit new customer acquisition, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

The broader adoption, use, and commercialization of AI technology, and the continued rapid pace of developments in the AI field, are inherently uncertain. Failure by our customers to use our cloud services to support AI use cases in their systems, or our ability to keep up with evolving AI technology requirements and regulatory frameworks, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition, and future prospects.

Current report

WhiteFiber operates in a capital-intensive industry and is subject to capital market and interest rate risks.

Current report

WhiteFiber’s operations require significant capital investment to purchase and maintain the property and equipment required to provide specialized infrastructures to support generative AI work streams. In addition, WhiteFiber’s operations include a significant level of fixed and semi-fixed costs. Consequently, WhiteFiber will rely on capital markets, as sources of liquidity for capital requirements for growth. If WhiteFiber is unable to access capital at competitive rates, the ability to implement business plans, make capital expenditures or pursue acquisitions it would otherwise rely on for future, growth may be adversely affected. For example, without obtaining additional debt financing, WhiteFiber will not have sufficient funds to retrofit NC-1 into a HPC data center or achieve its estimated 99 MW (gross) of total HPC data center capacity by May 2029 and other growth strategies. Market disruptions may increase the cost of borrowing or adversely affect WhiteFiber’s ability to access one or more financial markets. Such market disruptions could include:

Current report

If we raise additional equity financing, our shareholders may experience significant dilution of their ownership interests, and the per share value of our ordinary shares could decline. Furthermore, if we engage in debt financing, the holders of debt will have priority over the holders of our ordinary shares on order of payment preference. We may be required to accept terms that restrict or limit our ability to, among other things:

Current report

These restrictions may limit our ability to obtain additional financing, withstand downturns in our business or take advantage of business opportunities.

Current report

If one of our customers were to obtain exclusive rights to open source technologies that we employ across our businesses, our ability to realize significant operating efficiencies could be jeopardized.

Current report

Our business model leverages our ability to share significant open source technological innovations across cloud services, our data centers and customers. If one of our customers were to obtain exclusive rights to what are now open source technologies we employ across our businesses, we could be limited in obtaining essential supplies at competitive costs and sharing research and development costs across our businesses. As a result, our ability to realize significant operating efficiencies by modifying our existing or new data centers utilizing these technologies and our ability to serve all our customers could be jeopardized, which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and future prospects.

Current report

We may be vulnerable to physical security breaches, which could disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

A party who is able to compromise the physical security measures protecting our facilities could cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations and misappropriate our property or the property of our customers. As we provide assurances to our customers that we provide the highest level of security, such a compromise could be particularly harmful to our brand and reputation. We may be required to expend significant capital and resources to protect against such threats or to alleviate problems caused by breaches in security. As techniques used to breach security change frequently and are often not recognized until launched against a target, we may not be able to implement new security measures in a timely manner or, if and when implemented, we may not be certain whether these measures could be circumvented. Any breaches that may occur could expose us to increased risk of lawsuits, regulatory penalties, loss of existing or potential customers, harm to our reputation and increases in our security costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

Supply chain disruptions may adversely affect WhiteFiber’s new project development.

Current report

WhiteFiber is a provider of GPUs compute and purchases NVIDA H100, H200, B200, GB200 servers, as well as other servers, through OEMS, for example, Super Micro Computer Inc®, Dell, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Disruptions, shortages or delays in WhiteFiber’s ability to source GPUs and price increases from suppliers may occur, and adversely affect WhiteFiber’s planned expansions and new project timelines. Any material disruption at WhiteFiber’s facilities or those of its customers or suppliers or otherwise within its supply chain, whether as a result of downtime, work stoppages or facility damage could prevent WhiteFiber from meeting future customer demands or expected timelines, require it to incur unplanned capital expenditures, or cause other material disruptions to its operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on WhiteFiber’s future operations, financial position and cash flows. Further, supply chain disruptions can occur from events out of WhiteFiber’s control, such as environmental incidents or other catastrophes.*** ***

Current report

We have an evolving business model which is subject to various uncertainties.

Current report

As cloud services and WhiteFiber data centers become more widely available, we expect the services and products associated with them to evolve. In order to stay current with the industry, our business model requires us to evolve as well. From time to time, we have modified and will continue to modify aspects of our business model relating to our strategy. We cannot offer any assurance that these or any other modifications will be successful or will not result in harm to our business. We may not be able to manage growth effectively, which could damage our reputation, limit our growth and negatively affect our operating results. Further, as the markets in which we operate continue to evolve, new market participants have emerged and may continue to emerge and this may require us to further evaluate our business model and products and services. We cannot provide any assurance that we will successfully identify all emerging trends and growth opportunities in this business sector, and we may lose out on those opportunities. Such circumstances could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects or operations.

Current report

We do not have any business interruption or disruption insurance coverage.
