Borrowings [Abstract]
BORROWINGS	NOTE 8 – BORROWINGS Marshall loan The Company is the guarantor on a Secured Loan Facility Agreement by MIG No. 1 with Marshall. The loan matured in February 2024 and bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum (with an overdue rate provision of an additional 500bps), payable monthly with interest payments that commenced in December 2021. This loan facility is secured by direct assets of MIG No.1 Pty Ltd and a general security agreement given by the Company. Principal repayments began during November 2022. The outstanding balance including interest is $9.71 million as of June 30, 2024, all of which is classified as a current liability. There has been no principal and interest payments made since May 2023. This Secured Loan Facility Agreement was entered into with an Australian entity MIG No.1, this company was placed into a court appointed liquidation and wind-up process and was deconsolidated from the group on March 19, 2024. On March 19, 2024, Marshall appointed receivers and managers in Australia under the terms of their security relating to their secured loan facility. The direct assets that secure this loan include 5,372 miners and 8 modular data centers (“MDCs”), these assets are held by the MIG No.1 and therefore were included in the deconsolidation. The receiver’s statutory duty includes the obligation to sell the secured assets at market value or, if market value is not known, at the best price reasonably obtainable to maximize the prospects of there being sufficient proceeds available to satisfy the balance of the outstanding secured debt. It is therefore expected that this loan balance will be offset in the future by the amount received from the sale of these miners and MDCs. On June 25, 2024, Marshall inspected and inventoried the miners and MDCs located at the Company’s Midland facilities but has taken no further action on the collateral at this time. The Company is currently not utilizing these miners or MDCs for its operations and has asked Marshall to take these assets out of the Company’s storage. Marshall has not responded to the Company’s request for these miners and MDCs to be removed from the Company’s storage. The Company is reserving all its rights and remedies against Marshall. Celsius loan On February 23, 2022, Luna entered into a Colocation Agreement with Celsius Mining LLC. In connection with this agreement, Celsius Mining LLC loaned Luna a principal amount of $20.00 million, for the purpose of funding the infrastructure required to meet the obligations of the Colocation Agreement, for which Luna issued a Secured Promissory Note for repayment of such amount. The Secured Promissory Note accrues interest daily at a rate of 12% per annum (with an overdue rate provision of an additional 200bps). Luna is required to amortize the loan at a rate of 15% per quarter, principal repayments began at the end of September 2022. The Secured Promissory Note had a maturity date of August 23, 2023, the outstanding balance including interest is $9.10 million as of June 30, 2024, all of which is classified as a current liability. Celsius Mining LLC transferred the benefit of the promissory note to Celsius Network Ltd. Celsius Mining LLC and Celsius Network Ltd filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on July 13, 2022. Under the Colocation Agreement, Celsius Mining LLC advanced $15.33 million to Luna that were held as a deposit. Whether that amount has been forfeited or must be returned to Celsius Mining LLC is the subject of a dispute between the parties. Pursuant to a court order dated April 22, 2024, the Celsius civil lawsuit against Luna and Mawson has been dismissed pursuant to the Company’s successful motion to compel arbitration. On July 18, 2024, Celsius Network, LLC filed for arbitration of its claims against the Company with the American Arbitration Association in the matter entitled, “Celsius Network Ltd., Celsius Mining LLC and Ionic Digital Mining LLC v. Mawson Infrastructure Group, Luna Squares LLC and Cosmos Infrastructure LLC - Case 01-24-0006-4462”. The Company opposes the claim in arbitration and on August 12, 2024, has filed responsive pleadings denying the claims and asserting affirmative defenses, including set off against the claims, and asserted cross claims against Celsius for sums due to the Company in excess of $115.00 million. This includes counter claims asserted by the Company against Celsius Network Ltd., Celsius Mining LLC and Ionic Digital Mining LLC in excess of $115.00 million for damages due to the Company, including for breach of the Colocation Agreement by Celsius. The matter is proceeding through the arbitration process. W Capital loan The Company is the guarantor on a Secured Loan Facility Agreement for working capital by Mawson Infrastructure Group Pty Ltd with W Capital Advisors Pty Ltd. As of June 30, 2024, AUD $1.86 million (USD $1.24 million) has been drawn down from this facility, all of which is classified as a current liability. The Secured Loan Facility accrues interest daily at a rate of 12% per annum (with an overdue rate provision of an additional 800bps) and is paid monthly. Principal repayments are paid ad hoc in line with the loan facility agreement. The Secured Loan Facility expired in March 2023. This Secured Loan Facility Agreement was originally with Mawson Infrastructure Group Pty Ltd and this Australian entity was placed into Australian voluntary administration on October 30, 2023 and on November 3, 2023, W Capital Advisors appointed receivers and managers in Australia under the terms of their security relating to their working capital facility. The Company has also corresponded with W Capital Advisory Pty Ltd and/or its representatives, the Company’s ongoing concerns about W Capital Advisory Ptv Ltd and James Manning being related parties. W Capital Advisory Pty has not responded to the Company’s concerns in a manner satisfactory to the Company. Convertible notes On July 8, 2022, the Company issued secured convertible promissory notes to investors in exchange for cash. The outstanding balance relates to the interest on the convertible note which has been accrued from July 2022 onwards and therefore the outstanding balance is $0.10 million as of June 30, 2024, all of which is classified as a current liability. On March 28, 2024, the Company was made a defendant in a civil suit before the Supreme Court of NSW in Sydney Australia, in the matter entitled “W Capital Advisors Pty Ltd in its capacity as trustee for the W Capital Advisors Fund v. Mawson Infrastructure Group, Inc.”, Docket No. 2024/00117331, alleging a claim to seek USD $0.17 million as unpaid interest under a convertible note after the Company paid in full the principal of $0.50 million, and AUD $0.30 million under a loan deed, plus interest and costs for sums due claiming corporate guarantee by the Company for a “Variation Deed to Loan Deed” dated September 29, 2022, executed by its Australian entity, Mawson Infrastructure Group Pty Ltd. The Company sought dismissal of the Australian proceedings arguing jurisdiction of any claims against the Company was in the United States as set forth in the agreements between the parties. Despite its objections, the Australian court ruled in favor of the Australian claimant and rendered a judgment against the Company under Australian law for US $0.17 million as unpaid interest under a convertible note after the Company paid in full the principal of $0.50 million, and AUD $0.30 million under a loan deed, plus interest and costs for sums due. The Company continues to believe that jurisdiction and adjudication of this matter has to be pursuant to U.S law and has to occur in the United States and the Company retain all rights and shall pursue all remedies as available under U.S. jurisdictions. The Company has also corresponded with W Capital Advisory Pty Ltd and/or its representatives, the Company’s ongoing concerns about W Capital Advisory Ptv Ltd and James Manning being related parties. W Capital Advisory Pty has not responded to the Company’s concerns in a manner satisfactory to the Company.
