2030 Convertible Note 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 of 1933, as amended (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 capp ed call transactions, as described below. 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 $468,345 as of March 31, 2025 based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, which is considered a Level 2 valuation input. 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 March 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. Therefore, 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 Indenture, dated as of December 17, 2024 (the “Indenture”), by and between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “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 Indenture), subject to a limited exception described in the 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 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 Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default either the 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 line of credit in which the Lender will lend the Company certain digital assets or cash. The 2024 Master Loan has 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 Company drew $50,000 from the line of credit in August 2024, and concurrently transferred bitcoin to the Lender as collateral at fair value of $78,130. Pursuant to its 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, the interest rate on the line of credit was adjusted to 8.5% per annum and 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 statement of operations and comprehensive income. In December 2024, the Company repaid the $50,000 outstanding balance on the line of credit and received 100% of the bitcoin transferred as collateral from the Lender. There were no borrowings during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and as of March 31, 2025, there is no outstanding balance on the Coinbase line of credit and no bitcoin was posted as collateral for the line of credit. In April 2025, the Company amended the 2024 Master Loan agreement (the “2025 Amended Master Loan”) to expand the availability of borrowings to $200,000 with all other terms significantly consistent with the prior terms of the $50,000 line of credit. See Note 16 - Subsequent Events for additional details. 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 Secured Overnight Financing Rate 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 March 31, 2025, the Company has $7,909 principal payments outstanding. 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. Mortgage - Corporate Facility 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. The loan agreement has a two 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 $2.0 million promissory note. 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. Trinity Master Equipment Financing Agreement On April 22, 2022, the Company entered into a Master Equipment Financing Agreement (the “Master Equipment Financing Agreement”) with Trinity Capital Inc. that could provide $35,000 of borrowings to finance the Company’s acquisition of blockchain computing equipment. The Company received a loan of $20,000 at closing with an interest rate of 13.80%. The borrowings under the Master Equipment Financing Agreement are collateralized by 3,336 S19j Pro miners, which are located at our College Park, GA and Norcross, GA sites. The loan matures in the quarter ending June 30, 2025, and the Company has current unpaid principal payments of $1,644 as of March 31, 2025. Marquee Funding Partners As of March 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 $1,142. The remaining payment terms range from 17-23 months and annual interest of 13%. Auto and Equipment Loans and Western Alliance Equipment Financing Agreement The Company has entered into various financing arrangements to purchase vehicles and non-miner equipment with combined principal outstanding at March 31, 2025 of $587. The loans vary in terms f rom 12-72 months with annual interest rates ranging from 0.00% - 11.30%. The loans are secured with 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 3 60-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 March 31, 2025, the financing agreement had an outstanding balance of $958. The Floating Wall Street Journal Prime Rate was 7.5% at the end of the period, resulting in an interest rate of 8.5% per annum as of March 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 March 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all covenants, and no events of default had occurred under the financing agreement.
