prospectus supplement dated October 3, 2024 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated

San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - January 8, 2025) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE)
(NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (referred to as the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable blockchain infrastructure, has released its unaudited production results for December 2024 (all amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated).
Key Highlights for December 2024:
-
Bitcoin Production: Mined 103 BTC, bringing HIVE's HODL portfolio to 2,805 BTC, a 64.6% increase year-over-year.
-
Mining Capacity: Maintained an average mining capacity of 5.5 Exahash per Second ("EH/s") with fleet efficiency at 22 Joules per Terahash ("J/TH"), reaching a peak BTC only hashrate of 6.0 EH/s, and a peak BTC equivalent hashrate of 6.3 EH/s.
-
Operational Efficiency: Achieved an average daily production rate of 3.32 BTC, equivalent to 18.8 BTC per Exahash.
-
Bitcoin Valuation: HIVE's Bitcoin holdings were valued at over $261.9 million as of December 31, 2024, based on a BTC closing price of approximately $93,400.
Strategic Developments:
-
In December, HIVE reached 6.0 EH/s of operational hashrate, marking a 47% year-over-year growth from 4.08 EH/s at December 31, 2023. This milestone was driven by upgrading the Company's Bitcoin mining fleet with state-of-the-art Avalon machines procured from Canaan Inc., boosting both the efficiency and capacity of its operations.
-
The Company anticipates reaching 15.0 EH/s of global hashrate capacity by the end of 2025, with a blended fleet efficiency of 17.0 J/TH upon full deployment of its 100 MW hydroelectric-powered strategic expansion in Paraguay.
-
The Company secured highly competitive energy pricing in Sweden, adding to its hedged position with electricity costs at sub-2-cent rates per kilowatt-hour.
-
Furthermore, HIVE announced the strategic relocation of its head office from Vancouver, Canada, to San Antonio, Texas, aiming to enhance growth and shareholder value within the U.S. market. The Company has signed a lease agreement for office space in San Antonio, Texas, marking an important step in establishing its new headquarters. HIVE also announced plans to transition to reporting financial results under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("US GAAP"), starting with its audited financial statements for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025.
Executive Commentary:
Aydin Kilic, CEO of HIVE, stated: "The past year has been crucial in HIVE's journey as we continue to align next-generation technology with sustainable operations. We increased our global hashrate by 47%, reaching 6.0 EH/s, and commenced our new 100 MW green-energy site in Paraguay. We are targeting a global hashrate of 13.0 EH/s by the end of the second calendar quarter of 2025 with the completion of the initial 100 MW phase, and we aim for 15.0 EH/s by the end of calendar 2025 with further site expansions. The ASIC equipment necessary to achieve the 15.0 EH/s target has been ordered from Bitmain, as announced in a previous news release."
HIVE In Texas:
Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE, stated: "As we enter 2025, we boast an exceptionally strong balance sheet, including nearly $262 million of Bitcoin in our Treasury. Our decision to relocate our head office to the U.S. marks a strategic step to enhance our presence in the world's most robust and dynamic capital market and better serve our shareholders. I am proud of our team's efforts to significantly expand our Bitcoin mining capacity and HPC capabilities, ensuring we continue to play a leading role in the digital transformation."
