HIVE Achieves FY2025 Total Revenue of $115.3 Million and $56.2 Million Adjusted EBITDA with 1,414 Bitcoin Mined and 3x Growth in AI GPU Revenue
This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated May 14, 2025, to its short form base shelf prospectus dated September 11, 2024. San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 26, 2025) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (referred to as the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable data center infrastructure, announces its results for the full year ended March 31, 2025 (all amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated). FY2025 Financial Highlights: Total Revenue: $115.3 million, from digital currency mining and high-performance computing (HPC) hosting services. Digital currency mining revenue: $105.2 million, down 5.2% year-over-year mainly due to the April 2024 Bitcoin Halving and increased hash rate difficulty, mostly offset by 40% higher digital currency mining hashrate (from 4.5 EH/s at end of March 2024 to 6.3 EH/s at end of March 2025) and higher Bitcoin prices. HPC/AI Cloud Revenue: $10.1 million, representing approximately 3x growth year-over-year ($3.4 million FY2024), mainly due to expansion of GPU fleet earning AI Compute revenue, driven by strong demand for high-performance computing markets. Bitcoin Production: Mined 1,414 Bitcoin during the fiscal year, which contributed to HIVE's HODL position. Gross Operating Margins: $25.1 million in gross operating margin or 21.8%. G&A: $16.6 million, up from $13.2 million in FY2024 primarily as a result of increased staff to support HIVE's global expansion in digital currency mining, particularly in Paraguay (representing 3x growth from 140 megawatts ("MW") to 440 MW of digital asset infrastructure), and the growth of its BUZZ HPC business (with the number of GPUs growing to over 5,000). Net Income: US GAAP net loss of $3.0 million. Adjusted EBITDA 1: $56.2 million in Adjusted EBITDA or 48.7% of total revenue. Digital Assets: Total digital currency assets valued at $181.1 million at the ended the fiscal year on March 31, 2025, including 2,201 Bitcoin. Management Insights Frank Holmes, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of HIVE, commented, "In Fiscal 2025, we continued our track record of disciplined growth. We expanded our operational hashrate from approximately 4.5 EH/s in March 31, 2024 to 6.3 EH/s in March 31 2025—a 40% increase achieved even as the post-halving landscape compressed industry economics. Further, we acquired 300 MW of hydro-powered green-energy sites in Paraguay that management believes has deepened our leadership bench with visionaries like Lieutenant General (Ret.) John R. Evans Jr, Gabriel Lamas, and cloud-computing pioneer Craig Tavares and will transform HIVE's growth in both the mining and HPC businesses. We are extremely excited about the remainder of this year as we scale our Bitcoin mining business to the Company's goal of 25 EH/s by December 31, 2025 and continue the strong growth in our Buzz HPC Business. I'd like to thank our dedicated employees and shareholders for their continued support. Looking forward, our mandate remains the same as it always has been: compound strong shareholder value through disciplined, high-return on invested capital ("ROIC") growth powered by green energy." Aydin Kilic, President & CEO of HIVE, stated, "The foundation we set in Fiscal 2025 with the acquisition of our 100 MW site in Valenzuela, Paraguay and the 200 MW site in Yguazú, Paraguay has set the stage for what management believes will be the most transformative chapter in HIVE's history. Since the end of Fiscal 2025, HIVE commissioned the first 100 MW at Yguazú two weeks ahead of its projected schedule, which nearly doubled our hashrate to 11.5 EH/s as of today, with 5.5 Bitcoin being produced daily. The announced exahash growth with the Paraguay expansions and the continued growth path for our Buzz HPC division, gives HIVE two high-revenue engines of growth. With Paraguay ramping weekly, new Bitmain S21+ Hydro machines, and our diversified infrastructure strategy firmly in place, management's focuses are driving lower production costs, expanding cash flow, and delivering sustainable long-term value for our shareholders, all while maintaining our green energy focused strategy. We have been strong in the sector when it comes to ROIC as well, with 22% ROIC achieved over the past 12 months, while keeping low general and administrative expenses per Bitcoin mined as well. I am incredibly proud of our team. 2025 is a transformative year for HIVE." Darcy Daubaras, CFO of HIVE, added, "This reporting period marks a significant milestone for our Company as we have transitioned our financial reporting framework from IFRS to US GAAP. This change aligns with our strategic objectives, enhances comparability with U.S.-listed peers, and supports our potential growth ambitions in U.S. capital markets. We remain committed to transparency and will continue to provide clear, consistent reporting as we move forward. With every megawatt and associated mining hardware for our 300 MW Paraguay expansion now fully funded, we are excited to be on track to deliver our target of 25 EH/s by US Thanksgiving—more than quadrupling our hashrate from March 2025. We believe the scale and efficiency gains from this expansion will significantly enhance our unit economics and drive significant shareholder returns. The initiatives launched in Fiscal 2025 represent the beginning of HIVE's transformation from a modest digital mining company into a globally scaled, sustainability-focused leader in Bitcoin infrastructure."

Digital currency mining revenue: $28.1 million, up 5.5% sequentially from fiscal Q3 2025 mainly due higher average digital currency mining hashrate (from 5.4 EH/s in fiscal Q3 2025 to 5.9 EH/s in fiscal Q4 2025) and slightly higher Bitcoin prices. G&A: $5.3 million, up slightly from $4.6 million in Q3 FY2025 primarily as a result of increased staff to support HIVE's global expansion in digital currency mining, particularly in Paraguay, and the growth of its BUZZ HPC business. Bitcoin Production: Mined 303 Bitcoin, down 6% sequentially from fiscal Q3 2025 due to increased hashrate difficulty. HPC Revenue: Buzz HPC revenue was a record $3.0 million during the quarter, up 18.5% sequentially, driven by strong demand for high-performance computing markets. Gross Operating Margins: $8.8 million in gross operating margin or 28.2%. Net Income: GAAP net loss of $52.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA 1: ($30.7) million in Adjusted EBITDA primarily due to quarter end non-cash revaluation 2 of ($26.4) million digital currencies held on balance sheet as a result of lower quarter end spot Bitcoin price.
