on

NEW YORK, May 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bit Digital, Inc. (Nasdaq: BTBT) (the “Company”), a global platform for high-performance computing (“HPC”) infrastructure and digital asset production headquartered in New York City, today announced its financial results for the First Quarter of 2025. The Company will host a conference call on May 16, 2025, at 10:00 AM ET to discuss results (click here for registration information).

Financial Highlights for First Quarter of 2025

Total revenue for the First Quarter of 2025 was $25.1 million, a 17% decrease compared to the prior year’s results. The decrease was driven by a decline in Digital asset mining revenue following the April 2024 halving and partially offset by continued growth in Cloud services revenue and the addition of Colocation services revenue.Revenue from bitcoin mining was $7.8 million for the quarter, a 64% decrease compared to the prior year’s quarter. Cloud services revenue was $14.8 million, an 84% increase from the prior year’s quarter. Colocation services revenue was $1.6 million for the quarter as compared to none in the prior year’s quarter. ETH staking revenue was $0.6 million for the quarter, a 72% increase from the prior year’s quarter.Revenue from digital asset mining comprised 31% of total revenue for the first quarter of 2025 compared to 72% for the prior year’s quarter.The Company had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $61.3 million, and total liquidity (defined as cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, USDC, and the fair market value of digital assets) of approximately $141.4 million, as of March 31, 2025.Total assets were $458.2 million and Shareholders’ Equity amounted to $417.4 million as of March 31, 2025.Adjusted EBITDA[1] was $(44.5) million for the First Quarter of 2025 compared to $58.5 million for the first quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2025 includes $49.2 million in mark-to-market losses on digital assets compared to $45.7 million of gains in Q1 2024.GAAP loss per share was $(0.32) on a fully diluted basis for the First Quarter of 2025 compared to earnings per share of $0.43 for the first quarter of 2024.

Operational Highlights for First Quarter of 2025

The Company earned 83.3 bitcoins during the First Quarter of 2025, an 80% decrease from the prior year. The decline was driven by a reduction in block rewards following the halving event in April 2024, an increase in network difficulty, and a decrease in the Company’s average operational hash rate following a fleet deployment in connection with the Company’s exit from Coinmint facilities.The Company earned 211.0 ETH in native staking for the three months ended March 31, 2025.Treasury holdings of BTC and ETH were 417.6 and 24,434.2, respectively, with a fair market value of approximately $34.5 million and $44.5 million on March 31, 2025, respectively.As of March 31, 2025, we had 20,854 miners owned or operating (in Iceland) for bitcoin mining with a total maximum hash rate of 2.4 EH/s. The Company’s active hash rate of its bitcoin mining fleet was approximately 1.5 EH/s as of March 31, 2025.The Company had approximately 21,568 ETH actively staked in native staking protocols as of March 31, 2025.As of January 1, 2025, Bit Digital officially transitioned to domestic issuer status under U.S. securities law.In January 2025, the Company entered into a new agreement to supply its first customer for an additional 464 B200 GPUs for a period of eighteen months. This new agreement replaced the prior agreement whereby the Company was to provide the customer with an incremental 2,048 H100 GPUs. The contract represents approximately $15 million of annualized revenue and features a two-month prepayment from the customer. The customer has elected to defer the commencement date until August 20th, 2025, which is the latest allowable date under the agreement.In addition to the above, the Company signed multiple new cloud services agreements during the first quarter totaling more than 200 NVIDIA H200 GPUs, with contract durations ranging from one to twelve months. These deployments supported training and inference workloads and reflect continued momentum and customer diversification across the Company’s GPU cloud platform.In February, the Company officially rebranded its HPC business as WhiteFiber, Inc., encompassing its GPU cloud services and HPC data center platform, Enovum Data Centers.In February, the Company, through its high-performance computing platform WhiteFiber, secured a five-year, 5MW colocation agreement with Cerebras Systems (“Cerebras”), a leader in generative AI. In April, Bit Digital announced the selection of a new data center site in Saint-Jérôme, Québec (“MTL-3“) to fulfill the contract. The facility, being developed by Enovum under a lease-to-own structure, is expected to commence operations in July 2025, with total development costs estimated at approximately CAD $55 million (approximately $40 million USD). Cerebras holds a right of first refusal for additional capacity at the site.In March, the Company announced a strategic partnership between WhiteFiber and Shadeform, a leading multi-cloud GPU marketplace, to deliver on-demand access to NVIDIA B200 GPUs. Bit Digital received its first shipment of B200s during the quarter, comprising 64 servers (512 GPUs), and began phased deployment in April. Through the Shadeform integration, WhiteFiber’s GPU cloud became globally accessible across more than 100 regions, enabling developers and enterprises to access high-performance AI infrastructure without long-term commitmentsIn March 2025, the Company executed two new service orders under its existing agreement with Boosteroid, a global cloud gaming provider. The orders total 701 GPU servers under five-year terms, with deployments scheduled to commence in May and June 2025. These new contracts represent approximately $2.1 million in annualized contract value, bringing total contract value from Boosteroid to approximately $3.6 million annually and over $18 million in total contract value.

Subsequent Events

In April 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a data center property in Madison, North Carolina. Closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of an energy study verifying utility capacity. An earnest money deposit of $2.25 million was deposited in escrow pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, of which $1.25 million is non-refundable to us.In April 2025, the Company signed two additional cloud services agreements with DNA Fund. The first agreement, commencing in early May 2025, includes 104 NVIDIA H200 GPUs under a 25-month term. The second, expected to commence in May 2025, includes 512 H200 GPUs under a 23-month term. With these additions, DNA Fund’s total contracted deployment increased to 1,192 GPUs. Combined, the agreements represent approximately $20.9 million of annualized revenue.

Management Commentary

“Our first quarter results were affected by mark-to-market losses on digital assets and lower bitcoin mining revenue, both of which reflect industry-wide headwinds and the strategic rebalancing of our business. We continued to make meaningful progress in scaling our infrastructure platform and diversifying our revenue streams.

Cloud services revenue increased 84% compared to the year-ago period and accounted for the majority of total revenue. Demand was driven by both long-term enterprise contracts and short-term workloads from AI-native developers. Our strategic investments in next-generation hardware and distribution partnerships, including B200 deployments and our integration with Shadeform, helped expand platform reach and customer access.

Colocation services contributed a full quarter of revenue following our acquisition of Enovum in late 2024. We expect this business line to become a major growth engine as we expand our development pipeline to meet growing customer demand.

Bitcoin mining accounted for 31% of total revenue in the quarter, down from 40% in Q4 and 72% a year ago. The decline reflects both the halving event and the ongoing redeployment of miners from Coinmint facilities, which we used as an opportunity to retire less efficient assets and reposition our fleet. While mining remains a component of our platform, we expect its contribution to continue declining over time as our infrastructure businesses grow.

Gross margins improved both sequentially and year-over-year, driven by stronger contribution from Cloud and Colocation segments and ongoing cost discipline. We ended the quarter with approximately $140 million in total liquidity and no debt, giving us the flexibility to invest in high-return initiatives.

We advanced our platform on several fronts, deploying NVIDIA B200 GPUs, expanding key customer relationships, and progressing our datacenter expansion strategy. These milestones support our roadmap and reflect our growing relevance in the AI infrastructure landscape. As we scale our platform, we remain focused on disciplined execution and long-term value creation.”

Investor Notice

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and forward-looking statements described under “Risk Factors”  Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (Annual Report). Notwithstanding the fact that Bit Digital Inc. has not conducted operations in the PRC since September 30, 2021 we have previously disclosed under Risk Factors in our Annual Report: “We may be subject to fines and penalties for any noncompliance with or any liabilities in our former business in China in a certain period from now on.” Although the statute of limitations for non-compliance by our former business in the PRC is generally two years and the Company has been out of the PRC, for more than two years, the Authority may still find its prior bitcoin mining operations involved a threat to financial security. In such event, the two-year period would be extended to five years. The risk factor in the Form 10-K titled “If we are classified as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) U.S. taxpayers who own our ordinary shares may have adverse United States federal income tax consequences” has been modified to the extent that Management has obtained a third party analysis for 2024 and does not believe that Bit Digital should be classified as a PFIC for 2024. If any material risk was to occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In that event, the value of our securities could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment. The risks and uncertainties we describe are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. In addition, our past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results in the future. See “Safe Harbor Statement” below.

Context Labs AI Distillery™ Lets Enterprises Run Sovereign AI on Data They Own

Published

on

By

Company launches the Context Engine for trusted sovereign AI, which packages an enterprise’s own data with verified lineage for use with the frontier or open-weight model the enterprise chooses.

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates, Nov. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Context Labs B.V. (“Context Labs”), the AI Data Infrastructure company, today launched the Context Labs AI Distillery™, the Context Engine for trusted sovereign AI. The AI Distillery converts an enterprise’s operational and business data into a governed Context Package that the enterprise owns, creating their own protected competitive moat. Every answer an AI model draws from the package is traced to its source records, and the package works with the frontier or open weight model the customer chooses, inside the customer’s own environment.

Analysts have quantified the obstacle to scaling enterprise AI. Gartner predicts that through 2026 organizations will abandon 60% of AI projects unsupported by AI-ready data, and that over 40% of agentic AI projects will be canceled by the end of 2027. McKinsey reports that eight in ten companies name data limitations as the barrier to scaling AI agents. Gartner has also described what enterprises now need: software that lets teams construct, govern and deliver semantically organized knowledge to AI agents, built on ontologies and knowledge graphs.

 The Context Labs AI Distillery™ is designed around six outcomes:

Own your IP. An enterprise’s knowledge, know-how and operating context stay inside a Context Package that only it controls and are not used to train third-party AI models.

Own your AI. The intelligence employees create in everyday use accrues to the enterprise, not to a model provider, and grows with every interaction.

Trusted, provable answers. Every output carries its data lineage and decision provenance, so answers can be verified, audited, and defended.

Build, protect and scale a proprietary competitive asset. The Context Package captures how the enterprise describes and runs its operations, starting with one facility and extending to others without rebuilding.

Sovereign by design. The AI Distillery runs inside the customer’s own data center or chosen cloud, so data stays where the customer decides.

Freedom of model choice, at lower cost. Customers can use any frontier or open-weight model and switch models without rebuilding the Context Package. Precise, verified context reduces the tokens each query uses.

The AI Distillery works in three steps: distill, package, and prove. It maps an enterprise’s structured and unstructured data to industry-specific ontologies, stores the result in a Context Package with cryptographic provenance, and checks answers against the company’s own records before any model goes into production. Work that has typically required teams of specialist engineers becomes a guided, governed workflow.

Context Agents and the Semantic Context Tunnel. Context Agents answer operational, commercial and compliance questions from the enterprise’s Context Package, with every figure traced to its source. The Semantic Context Tunnel brings the same context into the AI assistant employees already use. Both work within the access controls the enterprise sets.

“Models come and go. An enterprise’s context should not,” said Dan Harple, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Context Labs. “Frontier models will keep improving, but they do not supply governance, provenance or trust, and they should not absorb the knowledge that makes a company competitive. The AI Distillery gives enterprises a moat they own: their own context, proven and protected, working with whichever model they choose. That is how our customers own their IP and own their AI.”

At ADIPEC 2026, Context Labs is demonstrating the AI Distillery on energy-sector use cases, in which a Context Agent answers operational questions with every figure traced to the underlying plant records. Context Labs is located Arab Development Group stand, Stand #5240, Hall 5 and in the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, AI Zone, Hall 13.

Availability. The Context Labs AI Distillery™ is available now through the Microsoft Marketplace. Each enterprise license includes an industry starter kit to accelerate time to value. Companies can request a briefing or technical working session at contextlabs.com/distillery.
