**PART
I**
**Item
1. Business.**
**Overview**
Bitmine
Immersion Technologies, Inc. is a U.S.-based digital asset technology company focused on acquiring, holding and actively managing ETH as its primary treasury reserve asset. Through equity and other capital markets transactions, we provide investors
with indirect exposure to ETH by deploying offering proceeds to acquire and manage ETH within our corporate treasury.
From
2021 through mid-2025, we built and operated sites utilizing immersion cooling, conducted self-mining, provided
hosting/mining-as-a-service, leased, and sold equipment and related infrastructure. Beginning in the third calendar quarter of 2025,
management refined the business to prioritize (i) digital asset ecosystem services (including consulting/advisory), and (ii)
disciplined digital asset treasury management, while winding down proprietary self-mining exposure and deferring new site
buildouts. This evolution reflects our assessment of post-halving economics, capital allocation discipline, and market demand for
digital asset-adjacent services.
Our
results are now driven primarily by:
| 
| operating
efficiency and working capital management in a lower-capex model; and | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| ETH
market conditions, principally as they affect the value of the ETH held in, and the
activities of, our treasury. | |
In
July 2025, we strengthened our liquidity and expanded our access to capital through a public offering of common stock and related private
placements, and by establishing a shelf registration statement and our ATM Program (as defined below) for at-the-market equity issuances.
**Company
Developments**
****
The
Company was originally engaged in digital asset mining and related infrastructure services, including (i) proprietary and synthetic
BTC mining utilizing immersion-cooling technology; (ii) hosting and managed services for institutional customers; and (iii) consulting,
equipment sales and leasing.
Beginning
in the third calendar quarter of 2025, management reoriented the business to prioritize (i) ETH treasury operations; (ii) BTC
ecosystem services, including consulting and advisory engagements and equipment leasing; (iii) facilitation and
optimization of third-party power and hosting arrangements; and (iv) disciplined BTC treasury management while winding down
proprietary self-mining exposure and deferring new site buildouts.
| 1 | |
We
completed an uplisting of our common stock to the NYSE American in early June 2025, transitioning from the OTCQX Best Market (the
Uplisting). Concurrently with our Uplisting, we completed an underwritten public offering of common stock in early
June 2025, and the underwriters subsequently exercised the overallotment option through late June into July 2025. In July 2025, we
established an at-the-market program (our ATM Program) pursuant to our shelf registration statement, permitting sales
of up to $20,000,000 of our common stock from time to time, subject to market conditions. Separately, in June and July 2025 we
completed private placement offerings in which we sold equity and equity-linked securities, including to institutional investors, to
advance our ETH Treasury Strategy (as defined below) and for general corporate purposes.
We
deployed proceeds from our June 2025 public offering to initiate a BTC treasury, purchasing approximately 154.167 BTC. Beginning in late
June 2025, we broadened our digital asset treasury strategy to include ETH. Over the course of the third quarter of 2025, we announced
multiple milestones reflecting substantial ETH acquisitions funded in part by private placements and sales under our ATM Program. Our
stated objective is to establish a leading position as an institutional ETH holder alongside our ongoing BTC-focused mining and related
activities.
We
strengthened our governance and management resources to support this growth. In June 2025, we expanded our board of directors (the
Board) leadership by appointing Thomas J. Lee, a leader in financial investments and treasury
strategies, as Chairman. We also entered into strategic advisory arrangements to support our capital markets, ETH treasury, and
industry engagement initiatives in July 2025.
Collectively,
these actions reflect the evolution of our strategy to hone a disciplined digital asset treasury program while broadening our
revenue opportunities through an asset-light hashrate procurement and advisory model.
**Our
Strategy**
Our
business integrates (i) a digital asset treasury anchored in ETH with (ii) an operating platform historically focused on BTC mining and
hosting. We seek to accumulate and hold ETH on a long-term basis within a disciplined treasury framework, and we may participate in staking
or staking-adjacent activities where risk-adjusted returns, liquidity and regulatory considerations are acceptable. We maintain flexibility
to mine or hold BTC when market economics are attractive. We prioritize robust custody, cybersecurity, segregation of duties and counterparty
oversight, and we evaluate opportunities in ETH-adjacent servicesincluding advisoryconsistent
with an asset-light operating model.
| 2 | |
The
principal components of our strategy are:
****
**ETH
Treasury Strategy**
****
We
seek to accumulate and hold ETH on a long-term basis, implementing controls over custody, counterparty exposure, and liquidity. Our strategy
focuses on pursuing opportunities to increase the amount of ETH in the treasury, including through staking, restaking, liquid staking
and other decentralized finance activities. We may deploy ETH into staking or other yield-generative protocols where risk-adjusted returns,
liquidity and regulatory considerations are acceptable. We believe ETHs role as a programmable settlement asset and its network-driven
cash flows create a compelling long-term investment thesis.
**BTC Exposure**
****
We
maintain flexibility to mine or hold BTC when market economics and risk-reward profiles are attractive, leveraging our immersion-cooling
expertise and variable-cost structure. We view our BTC holdings as long-term investments and expect to continue to accumulate BTC. We
have not set a specific target for the amount of BTC we seek to hold and will continue to monitor market conditions to determine whether
to engage in additional financings to purchase more BTC. Our BTC mining operations currently focus on placing new miners with third-party
hosting firms because we do not have the data center capacity to accommodate new miners. Hosting services include the provision of mining
equipment and energized space, as well as monitoring, troubleshooting, repair, and maintenance of customer mining equipment. Over the
long term, we plan to build data centers for our miners because we believe our total cost of operating the miners will be lower than
our total cost using third-party hosting firms.
**Our
Holdings**
As of November 20, 2025, our combined digital asset
holdings totaled approximately $8,281,532,000, consisting primarily of ETH, along with a smaller BTC position, equity interests in certain
digital asset companies, and cash. Based on publicly available information, the Company reigns as the largest ETH treasury and second
largest global treasury, behind Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:MSTR), which owns 641,692 BTC valued at $61 billion, as of November 16, 2025. The
Company remains the largest ETH treasury in the world.

****
**ETH
and the ETH Ecosystem**
****
Ethereum
is a decentralized, open-source blockchain network enabling programmable smart contracts and decentralized applications. ETH
is the native digital asset of the Ethereum network and is used as the unit of account to pay for transaction fees (gas),
validator rewards, and computation. Since its launch in 2015, Ethereum has become the leading programmable settlement layer for decentralized
finance, tokenization, and digital assets infrastructure, and it is the second-largest blockchain by market capitalization. Following
Ethereums transition to proof-of-stake consensus in September 2022, the networks energy consumption declined materially
and a validator-based system for securing the network and earning staking rewards was introduced.
We
believe that the growth and maturation of the Ethereum ecosystem has direct implications for our business model, which integrates (i)
an ETH-anchored corporate treasury focused on disciplined accumulation and risk-managed yield generation, and (ii) a capital-light operating
platform providing Ethereum-adjacent services. We view the following Ethereum ecosystem developments as particularly relevant to our
long-term strategy:
Network
scale and usage. Ethereums utility as a programmable settlement layer supports a broad and diversifying set of use cases,
including decentralized exchanges, lending/borrowing protocols, payment rails, identity and credentialing systems, gaming, real-world
asset tokenization, and enterprise blockchain initiatives. We believe continued growth in on-chain activity, measured
by transactions, users, total value locked, active addresses, and L2 throughput, contributes to Ethereums network effects and
long-term demand for ETH as a utility asset. In our view, higher ETH usage over the long term may correlate with increased demand
for ETH balances to pay for gas, provide liquidity, and post collateral.
Proof-of-stake
economics and validator infrastructure. Under proof-of-stake, ETH can be staked to help secure the network and earn protocol rewards,
subject to slashing and other performance risks. As staking participation, validator efficiency, and protocol parameters evolve, we expect
market yields to adjust. We believe disciplined, security-first staking and custody practices are a core competency for an institutional
ETH treasury. We may also selectively participate in risk-adjusted yield opportunities that are consistent with our liquidity, compliance,
and counterparty frameworks.
Scaling
via rollups and Layer 2 networks. The Ethereum roadmap contemplates scaling through rollups and Layer 2 (L2) solutions
that bundle transactions and settle them on ETH. Increased throughput at lower per-transaction costs may broaden addressable use
cases and drive user adoption. We expect L2 growth to expand the universe of Ethereum-adjacent servicessuch as tooling, analytics,
governance advisory, and treasuriesthat are relevant to our advisory and services offerings.
| 4 | |
Tokenization
and institutional adoption. Financial institutions and enterprises continue to explore or pilot tokenization of traditional instruments
(such as funds, treasuries, credit, and private assets) and on-chain settlement workflows. We believe tokenization and related market-structure
innovations could increase institutional engagement with ETH, deepen liquidity, and broaden opportunities for regulated custody,
treasury operations, and compliance-aligned yield solutions.
Security,
client protection, and compliance infrastructure. Institutional adoption requires robust custody, cybersecurity, and compliance controls.
Our treasury operations prioritize multi-layer key management, segregation of duties, and independent oversight of custodians and counterparties.
We believe investments in cybersecurity and governance are essential to supporting our ETH strategy and services.
Alignment
with our ETH Treasury Strategy. We seek to grow total ETH holdings over time and to manage our treasury to balance security, liquidity,
and risk-adjusted returns. We may stake ETH to earn rewards and, as appropriate, evaluate participation in related mechanisms (including
liquid staking, restaking, or validator strategies) where we determine the risk-return and liquidity align with our policies and applicable
law. We expect our ETH focus to influence capital allocation, risk management, product development, and service offerings across our
business (the ETH Treasury Strategy)
We
believe our public-company governance, treasury discipline, and operating experience in digital asset infrastructure position us to benefit
from long-term Ethereum ecosystem growth. However, ETH prices, staking economics, protocol changes, regulatory developments, market structure
conditions, and security risks are volatile and uncertain and could materially affect our strategy and results of operations.
**BTC
Mining Operations**
****
Through
our legacy mining-as-a-service business, we provided turnkey infrastructure and management solutions for institutional clients seeking BTC mining exposure
without direct operational obligations. Our immersion-cooled data centers enhanced power efficiency and hardware longevity over previous
technologies.
Mining-as-a-service included:
| 
| hardware
sales and deployment support; | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| operations management, uptime maximization, and pool payout optimization; and
| |
| 
| financial
reporting and compliance support consistent with GAAP. | |
**Competition**
****
We
compete with:
| 
| public
and private companies holding BTC and/or ETH as treasury assets; | |
| 5 | |
| 
| digital asset miners and market-making firms; and
| |
| 
| asset managers offering digital asset-exposure products
and yield services. | |
Competition
is based on access to capital, technology, execution, security, regulatory posture, and reputation. While many competitors possess greater
resources, we believe our public-company structure, treasury focus, and technical expertise provide differentiation.
**Market
Cyclicality**
****
Our
results are influenced by digital asset price volatility and transaction activity, all of which fluctuate materially
with macroeconomic and regulatory developments. Historically, our business has not exhibited predictable seasonal trends.
**Regulatory
Considerations**
****
We
monitor guidance and enforcement activity by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (CFTC), Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and other
authorities. Future changes could impose new licensing, registration, disclosure, or capital requirements that could materially
affect our operations or financial condition.
**Human
Capital Resources**
****
As
of August 31, 2025, we employed three individuals (Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and President) and engaged
four dedicated contractors. We strive to attract and retain professionals with expertise in digital assets, engineering,
compliance, and finance. We emphasize integrity, transparency, and risk discipline, support equal-opportunity employment, and
maintain a safe and inclusive workplace. No employees are represented by a labor union, and we have experienced no work stoppages.
We believe our employee relations are good.

revenues, gross margins, liquidity and ability to service obligations depend significantly on prevailing ETH prices and, less so, BTC
prices. Prolonged or sharp price declines, or heightened volatility, may impede ETH ecosystem growth or render BTC mining activities
unprofitable, reduce the carrying value and liquidity of digital assets held, and decrease investor demand for our securities.

**The
future development and growth of digital assets are subject to a variety of factors that are difficult to predict and evaluate. If digital assets
do not grow as we expect, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.**
****
Digital assets built on blockchain technology were only introduced in 2008 and remain in the early stages of development.
In addition, different digital assets are designed for different purposes. Ethereum, for instance, was designed to serve as a smart
contract and decentralized application platform, while Bitcoin was designed to serve as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. Many other
blockchain networks, ranging from cloud computing to tokenized securities networks, have only recently been established. The further growth
and development of any digital assets and their underlying networks and other cryptographic and algorithmic protocols
governing the creation, transfer and usage of digital assets and related assets represent a new and evolving paradigm that is subject
to a variety of factors that are difficult to evaluate, including:
| 
| many
digital assets and networks have limited operating histories, have not been validated in
production, and are still in the process of developing and making significant decisions that
will affect the design, supply, issuance, functionality, and governance of their respective
digital assets and underlying blockchain networks, any of which could adversely affect their
respective digital assets; | |
| 
| many
blockchain networks are in the process of implementing software upgrades and other changes to
their protocols, which could introduce bugs, security risks, or adversely affect the respective
blockchain networks; | |
| 
| several
large networks, including Ethereum and Bitcoin, are developing new features to address fundamental
speed, scalability, and energy usage issues. If these issues are not successfully addressed,
or if these networks do not achieve widespread adoption, it could adversely affect the underlying
digital assets; | |
| 
| security
issues, bugs, and software errors have been identified with many digital assets and their
underlying blockchain networks, some of which have been exploited by malicious actors. There
are also inherent security weaknesses in some digital assets, such as when creators of certain
blockchain networks use procedures that could allow hackers to counterfeit tokens. Any weaknesses
identified with a digital asset could adversely affect its price, security, liquidity, and
adoption rate. If one or more malicious actors obtain a majority of the compute or staking
power on a digital asset network, as has happened in the past, it may be able to engage in illicit
activity, which could cause financial losses to holders, damage the networks reputation
and security, and adversely affect its value; | |
| 
| blockchain
networks may have consolidated points of failure (such as concentrated ownership or an admin
key), allowing a small group of holders to have significant unilateral control and
influence over key decisions related to their blockchain networks, such as governance decisions
and protocol changes, as well as the market price of such digital assets; | |
| 
| the
development of new technologies for BTC mining, such as improved application-specific integrated
circuits (commonly referred to as ASICs), or changes in industry patterns, such as the consolidation
of mining power in a small number of large mining farms, could reduce the security of blockchain
networks, lead to increased liquid supply of digital assets, and reduce a digital assets
price and attractiveness; | |
| 9 | |
| 
| if
rewards and transaction fees for miners or validators on any particular digital asset network are
not sufficiently high to attract and retain miners or validators, a blockchain networks
security and speed may be adversely affected, increasing the likelihood of a malicious attack; | |
| 
| the
governance of many decentralized blockchain networks is by voluntary consensus and open competition,
and many developers are not directly compensated for their contributions. As a result, there
may be a lack of consensus or clarity on the governance of any particular digital asset network,
a lack of incentives for developers to maintain or develop the network, and other unforeseen
issues, any of which could result in unexpected or undesirable errors, bugs, or changes,
or stymie such networks utility and ability to respond to challenges and grow; and | |
| 
| many
blockchain networks are in the early stages of developing partnerships and collaborations, any
or all of which may not succeed and adversely affect the usability and adoption of the respective
digital assets. | |
Various
other technical issues have also been uncovered from time to time that resulted in disabled functionalities, exposure of certain users
personal information, theft of users assets, and other negative consequences, and which required resolution with the attention
and efforts of their global miner, user, and development communities. If any such risks or other risks materialize, and in particular
if they are not resolved, the development and growth of digital assets may be significantly affected and, as a result, our business, operating
results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.
**Ethereum-specific
market, technology and regulatory developments may adversely affect the value and liquidity of our ETH holdings and our Treasury Strategy**.
****
The
Ethereum network is subject to rapidly evolving technology, competitive dynamics (including alternative Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks),
and changing regulatory and market-structure frameworks. Adverse developmentsincluding protocol upgrades with unintended consequences,
forks or chain instability, validator concentration, consensus failures, smart contract vulnerabilities, L2 settlement failures, bridge
exploits, or regulatory restrictionscould reduce the value or liquidity of ETH and impair our treasury strategy.
**Our
digital asset treasury business model has multiple layers of corporate finance risks.**
**
Our
ETH Treasury Strategy has multiple layers of risk based on corporate finance principles and blockchain mechanics, including but
not limited to the following:
| 
| Potential
Premium Collapse: Our digital asset treasury relies on equity premiums to raise capital
accretively. If share prices fall below NAV, treasury accumulation on our balance sheet may
slow down or halt. Decreasing premiums paid for our shares may signal a lack of investor
enthusiasm for our ETH Treasury Strategy. | |
| 10 | |
| 
| Liquidity
and Macro Sensitivity: Digital asset treasury company equities are typically high-beta
assets. For example, a 20% ETH correction can result in 50% equity drawdowns due to leverage
and collapsing premiums. | |
| 
| Dilution
Fatigue: Repeated capital raises through ATMs and PIPEs may desensitize investors. Without
yield growth or NAV accretion, new issuances risk being seen as opportunistic liquidity events
rather than long-term expansion. | |
Together,
these risks form the structural challenges of our ETH Treasury Strategy. Its success depends on maintaining perpetual premium expansion
in a market that is inherently cyclical.
**Our
ETH Treasury Strategy and any decision to hold digital assets may increase our exposure to market volatility and potential uninsured
losses.**
Market conditions and operational needs may necessitate
longer holding periods, increasing exposure to price swings. If we hold ETH or other digital assets under our treasury strategy, we would
be exposed to additional volatility, regulatory, and market structure risks specific to those assets. We are currently exposed to potential
uninsured losses to the extent digital asset balances exceed the custodians applicable insurance coverage.
| 11 | |
****
**Operational,
Cybersecurity and Custody Risks**
****
**Any
ETH staking and related activities may expose us to slashing, lock-ups, liquidity, counterparty and operational risks**.
Staking
requires operational reliability and adherence to protocol rules. Validators that act maliciously or suffer extended downtime can be
slashed, resulting in a partial loss of staked principal. Staking may also involve unbonding or lock-up periods that reduce
liquidity and flexibility, and, where conducted through third-party providers, introduces counterparty and operational risk. Liquid staking
or restaking mechanisms may involve additional smart contract risk, rehypothecation or correlation risks, and market liquidity considerations
for derivative tokens. Any failure in our validator operations or at a third-party staking provider could result in losses and reputational
harm.
**Ethereum
scaling via rollups and Layer 2 solutions introduces additional dependencies and risks.**
Many
L2 networks rely on fraud proofs, validity proofs, sequencing, bridging contracts and centralized or semi-centralized governance during
early phases. Security or operational failures at an L2 or bridge could lead to loss of funds, delays in withdrawals, or market dislocations
affecting assets bridged to or from Ethereum. Our operations could be adversely affected by such disruptions, particularly if we hold
or accept assets that are bridged or rely on L2 settlement pathways.
**Smart
contract, bridge, oracle and protocol vulnerabilities could result in loss of digital assets or business interruption.**
Decentralized
protocols and token standards underpin many Ethereum-based activities. Exploits or failureswhether in widely used standards, core
protocol implementations, bridges, or oraclescan cause material losses or network instability. Even if we are not directly exposed
to a compromised protocol, contagion effects can depress market prices, reduce liquidity, and disrupt counterparties or service providers
on which we rely.
**Market
structure and liquidity for ETH could deteriorate, impacting our ability to transact or to accurately value our holdings**.
****
We
rely on a limited number of venues for price discovery and liquidity. Market eventsincluding exchange or market-maker disruptions,
de-platforming of digital asset participants by banks or service providers, stress in stablecoin markets, or regulatory actions that affect
trading venuescould reduce liquidity and increase volatility. A lack of reliable liquidity may impair valuation, hedging, or the
ability to rebalance our treasury.
| 12 | |
****
**ETH
price declines or prolonged underperformance versus other digital assets could adversely affect our financial position and capital access**.
Our
strategy is focused on ETH as our primary treasury asset. Sustained price declines in ETH or underperformance relative to other assets
could reduce the carrying value of our digital assets, increase the frequency or magnitude of impairment charges under applicable accounting
policies, and diminish our ability to raise capital or maintain compliance with exchange listing standards.
**Restaking
and correlated risk exposures may amplify losses during stress events.**
If
we engage in restaking or similar activities that create stacked security obligations or re-use of staked collateral across protocols,
we may face correlated losses across multiple positions in a single adverse event. Losses at one protocol could affect the security or
liquidity of positions at another, and recovery pathways may be uncertain or prolonged.
**Concentration
and governance risks in the Ethereum ecosystem could create systemic vulnerabilities.**
Concentration
of validators among a small number of providers, reliance on a limited set of client implementations, or governance capture by large
stakeholders could increase systemic risk. A critical bug in a dominant client, or adverse decisions by influential governance participants,
could affect network stability, validator incentives, or ETH economics.
**Our** **ability
to earn mining rewards may decline and our revenues could be materially reduced.**
The
mining industry is competitive, and rapid deployments by competitors, access to lower-cost power, or availability of next-generation
ASICs may increase hash rate and difficulty and outpace our growth or efficiency gains.
**Our
treasury strategy and any decision to hold digital assets may increase our exposure to market volatility and potential uninsured losses.**
Although
we generally liquidate BTC within a short period to fund expenses, market conditions and operational needs may necessitate longer holding
periods, increasing exposure to price swings. If we hold ETH or other digital assets under our treasury strategy, we would be exposed
to additional volatility, regulatory, and market structure risks specific to those assets. We are currently exposed to potential uninsured
losses to the extent digital asset balances exceed the custodians applicable insurance coverage.
****
| 13 | |
****
**Our
failure to securely store and manage our fiat currencies and digital assets could adversely affect our business, operating results and
financial condition.**
****
We
hold cash and store digital assets for our treasury and hold fiat and digital assets for corporate investment and operating purposes. In addition,
we store the majority of digital assets at third-party custodians for asset management products.
Securely
storing cash and digital assets is integral to the trust we build with our stockholders and our customers. We believe our policies, procedures,
operational controls and controls over financial reporting protect us from material risks surrounding the storing of these assets and
conflicts of interest. Our controls over financial reporting include, among others, controls over the segregation of corporate digital
assets, controls over the investment and staking processes of our treasury, and controls over digital asset withdrawals. Our financial
statements and disclosures, as a whole, will be available through periodic filings on a quarterly basis, and compliant with annual audit
requirements of Article 3 of Regulation S-X.
Any
inability by us to maintain our procedures, perceived or otherwise, could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.
Any material failure by us or our partners to maintain the necessary controls, policies, procedures or to manage the digital assets we
hold for our own investment and operating purposes could also adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
Further, any material failure by us or our partners to maintain the necessary controls or to manage digital assets and funds appropriately
and in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements could result in reputational harm, litigation, regulatory enforcement actions,
significant financial losses, and result in significant penalties and fines and additional restrictions, which could adversely affect
our business, operating results and financial condition.
****
**Reliance
on mining pools and other third-party service providers may expose us to counterparty failures, operational issues, and losses.**
Our
rewards are typically earned via pooled mining. We rely on pool operators to honestly and accurately account for our pro rata share of
rewards, maintain operational security, and remit proceeds. Pools may lack insurance for theft or loss, and rewards may be held for varying
durations. Any failure, insolvency, cyber event, mispricing, or suspension by a pool operator could delay or reduce our receipts or result
in losses. A change in pool fee structures or terms could adversely affect yields.
****
| 14 | |
****
**The
theft, loss or destruction of private keys required to access any digital assets held in custody for our own account or for our operational
partners may be irreversible. If we are unable to access our private keys or if we experience a hack or other data loss relating to our
ability to access any digital assets, it could cause regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm, and other losses.**
****
Digital
assets are generally controllable only by the possessor of the unique private key relating to the digital wallet in which the digital
assets are held. While blockchain protocols typically require public addresses to be published when used in a transaction, private keys
must be secured and kept private in order to prevent a third party from accessing the digital assets held in such a wallet. To the extent
that any of the private keys relating to our wallets containing digital assets held for our own account or for our customers is lost,
destroyed, or otherwise compromised or unavailable, and no backup of the private key is accessible, we will be unable to access the digital
assets held in the related wallet. Further, we cannot provide assurance that our wallets will not be hacked or compromised. Digital assets
and blockchain technologies have been, and may in the future be, subject to security breaches, hacking, or other malicious activities.
Any loss of private keys relating to, or hack or other compromise of, digital wallets used to store our customers digital assets
could adversely affect our customers ability to access or sell their digital assets, require us to reimburse our customers for
their losses, and subject us to significant financial losses in addition to losing customer trust in us and our products. As such, any
loss of private keys due to a hack, employee or service provider misconduct or error, or other compromise by third parties could hurt
our brand and reputation, result in significant losses, and adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.
We
utilize custodians to mitigate the risks associated with the loss or theft of keys. Cold wallet private key materials are stored and
secured at facilities within the United States and internationally. We store the substantial majority of our own digital asset
holdings utilizing market-standard storage solutions.
While we have for years maintained, and continue to
maintain, a crime insurance policy, which has a one-year term without automatic renewals, in the event of a loss, our assets may be insufficient
to cover amounts that exceed our insurance coverage and any custodians applicable insurance coverage. We may be exposed to such
uninsured losses, and such exposure could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
| 15 | |
**Regulatory,
Legal and Policy Risks**
****
**We
are subject to an extensive, highly evolving and uncertain regulatory landscape and any adverse changes to, or our failure to comply
with, any laws and regulations could adversely affect our brand, reputation, business, operating results and financial condition.**
Our
business is subject to extensive laws, rules, regulations, policies, orders, determinations, directives, treaties, and legal and regulatory
interpretations and guidance in the markets in which we operate, including those governing financial services and banking, trust companies,
securities, derivative transactions and markets, broker-dealers and alternative trading systems (ATS), commodities, credit,
digital asset custody, exchange, and transfer, cross-border and domestic money and digital asset transmission, commercial lending, usury,
foreign currency exchange, privacy, data governance, data protection, cybersecurity, fraud detection, payment services, consumer protection,
antitrust and competition, bankruptcy, tax, anti-bribery, economic and trade sanctions, anti-money laundering, and counter-terrorist
financing. Many of these legal and regulatory regimes were adopted prior to the advent of the internet, mobile technologies, digital assets,
generative artificial intelligence (AI) and related technologies. As a result, some applicable laws and regulations do
not contemplate or address unique issues associated with blockchain and digital assets industry, are subject to significant uncertainty, and vary widely across
U.S. federal, state, and local and international jurisdictions. These legal and regulatory regimes, including the laws, rules and regulations
thereunder, evolve frequently and may be modified, interpreted and applied in an inconsistent manner from one jurisdiction to another,
and may conflict with one another. Moreover, the complexity and evolving nature of our business and the significant uncertainty surrounding
the regulation of the blockchain and digital assets industry requires us to exercise our judgment as to whether certain laws, rules and regulations apply to us,
and it is possible that governmental bodies and regulators may disagree with our conclusions. To the extent we have not complied with
such laws, rules, and regulations, we could be subject to significant fines, revocation of licenses, limitations on or temporary or permanent
suspensions of our products and services, reputational harm, and other regulatory consequences, each of which may be significant and
could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.
Governmental
and regulatory bodies, including in the United States, may introduce new policies, laws and regulations relating to digital assets and
the blockchain and digital assets industry generally, and digital asset platforms in particular. Other companies failures of risk management and other control
functions could contribute to stricter oversight of digital asset platforms and
the blockchain and digital assets industry. Furthermore, new interpretations of existing laws and regulations may be issued by such bodies or the judiciary, which
may adversely impact the development of the blockchain and digital assets industry as a whole and our legal and regulatory status in particular by changing how
we operate our business, how our products and services are regulated, and what products or services we and our competitors can offer,
requiring changes to our compliance and risk mitigation measures, imposing new licensing requirements, or imposing a total ban on certain
digital asset transactions, as has occurred in certain jurisdictions in the past.
Moreover,
we may in the future use or offer products and services whose functionality or value depends in part on our management of token transaction
smart contracts, liquid staking, asset tracking, or other applications that provide novel forms of customer engagement and interaction
delivered via blockchain protocols. We may also offer products and services whose functionality or value depends on our ability to develop,
integrate, or otherwise interact with such applications within the bounds of our legal and compliance obligations. The legal and regulatory
landscape for such products, including the law governing the rights and obligations between and among smart contract developers and users
and the extent to which such relationships entail regulated activity is uncertain and rapidly evolving. Our interaction with those applications,
and the interaction of other blockchain users with any smart contracts or assets we may generate or control, could present legal, operational,
reputational, and regulatory risks for our business.
****
| 16 | |
****
**Changes
in laws and regulations applicable to digital assets may increase our compliance costs, restrict our operations, or expose us to enforcement
actions.**
Governmental
bodies and regulators, including the SEC, CFTC, FinCEN, IRS, Office of Foreign Assets Control, state authorities and non-U.S.
regulators, continue to evaluate and assert jurisdiction over digital assets, mining activities, market structure, custody,
broker-dealer/ATS regimes, sanctions/AML compliance, consumer protection, and energy usage. Legislative or regulatory changes (or
interpretations, guidance or enforcement actions) could impose registration, licensing, reporting, capital, custody, segregation,
disclosure, or other obligations on us, our pool operators, custodians, or counterparties. We may incur significant compliance
costs, be required to modify or curtail activities, or face penalties, investigations, or other enforcement risks.
****
**Conflicting
or extraterritorial regulations may complicate cross-border operations and disrupt access to essential services.**
Our
activities, counterparties, and service providers may be subject to overlapping or conflicting requirements across jurisdictions.
Compliance failures by pools, exchanges, custodians or other digital asset market participants could impair our business or our
ability to access services, liquidate assets, or receive rewards.
****
**Adverse
changes in the tax treatment of digital assets may increase our tax liabilities and compliance costs.**
Changes
to the characterization of mining rewards, sales or dispositions of digital assets, information reporting, withholding, or cost basis
rules may affect our financial results and cash flows.
****
| 17 | |
**Financing,
Liquidity, Capital Markets and Listing Risks**
****
**We
may be unable to raise additional capital when needed or on acceptable terms, and future financings may be highly dilutive.**
Our
growth plans and our ability to respond to market opportunities depend on access to equity or debt financing and cash flows from operations.
Market conditions for digital asset-related issuers may limit capital availability or increase dilution and financing costs. Future securities
offerings, including under our shelf registration statement and prospectus supplements, may significantly dilute existing stockholders
and depress our stock price.
**Failure
to maintain exchange listing standards may reduce liquidity, increase financing costs, and negatively affect valuation.**
Our
listing on NYSE American subjects us to continued quantitative and qualitative listing requirements. Failure to maintain minimum price,
market capitalization, public float, shareholder equity, governance, or filing standards could result in warnings, additional costs,
or delisting, reducing liquidity and potentially triggering defaults or investor redemptions.
****
**Limited
access to banking, payments and insurance services for digital asset-related businesses may create operational friction and liquidity risks.**
Financial
institutions may decline to provide deposit, treasury, lending, merchant, custody or other services to digital asset-related companies, leading
to operational friction, delays in settlements, and heightened liquidity and operational risk. We may face increased fees, caps, or service
interruptions.
****
| 18 | |
****
**Accounting,
Financial Reporting and Internal Control Risks**
****
**Complex
and evolving accounting for digital assets and related items may increase the volatility of our reported results and require significant
judgment.**
We
make critical accounting estimates regarding impairment, fair value measurements, estimated useful lives of miners and infrastructure,
revenue recognition (including principal-versus-agent considerations in pools), and the classification and presentation of digital assets.
Changes in market inputs, evolving practice, or future GAAP guidance could materially affect our reported results.
****
**Auditor
transitions and internal control remediation may result in delays, increased costs, or identification of material weaknesses.**
Auditor
transitions increase the risk of delays, additional costs, and identification of control deficiencies. If we identify material weaknesses
or significant deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, we may incur substantial remediation costs, and our ability
to report timely and accurately could be impacted.
****
**If
our breakeven metrics or related assumptions are inaccurate, investors may misinterpret our operating performance and risk profile.**
Our
breakeven metrics rely on multiple inputs, including energy costs, pool fees, uptime, difficulty, miner efficiency, depreciation and,
where disclosed, estimates of financing costs. Assumptions may differ from actual results or from those used by peers, and estimates
of financing costs may be imprecise given the nature of past capital raises.
****
**Strategic,
Counterparty and Concentration Risks**
****
**Our
strategic exposure to ETH may subject us to ETH-specific market, technology, and regulatory risks.**
The
Ethereum network has distinct market structure, technology, regulatory and liquidity considerations compared to Bitcoin. Adverse developments
specific to ETHincluding protocol changes, forks, validator dynamics, market dislocations, bridge or DeFi exploits, or regulatory
actionscould impair the value or liquidity of our ETH holdings and related strategies.
****
**We
operate in a highly competitive industry and we compete against unregulated or less regulated companies and companies with greater financial
and other resources, and our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected if we are unable to compete
effectively.**
The
digital asset industry is highly innovative, rapidly evolving, and characterized by healthy competition, experimentation, changing customer
needs, frequent introductions of new products and services, and subject to uncertain and evolving industry and regulatory requirements.
We expect competition to intensify in the future as existing and new competitors introduce new products or enhance existing products.
We face significant competition from a variety of companies around the world, ranging from digital asset-native companies, including decentralized
exchanges, to large traditional financial services incumbents and financial technology providers.
| 19 | |
Given
the uneven enforcement by United States and foreign regulators, many of these competitors have been able to operate from offshore while
offering large numbers of products and services to consumers, including in the United States, Europe, and other highly regulated jurisdictions,
without complying with the relevant licensing and other requirements in these jurisdictions, and historically without penalty. Due to
our regulated status in several jurisdictions and our commitment to legal and regulatory compliance, we have not been able to offer many
popular products and services, including products and services that our unregulated or less regulated competitors are able to offer.
We
also have expended significant managerial, operational, and compliance costs to comply with laws and regulations applicable to us in
the jurisdictions in which we operate, and expect to continue to incur significant costs to comply with these requirements, which these
unregulated or less regulated competitors have not had to incur.
If
we are unable to compete successfully, or if competing successfully requires us to take costly actions in response to the actions of
our competitors, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.
**Dependence
on a limited number of counterparties and strategic partners may concentrate risk and exacerbate disruptions.**
Our
agreements with counterparties and strategic partners, including advisors and financial intermediaries, can concentrate
risk. Failures, disputes, terminations, or changes in terms could disrupt operations or curtail growth. Certain arrangements may require bespoke governance or include preferential rights that constrain flexibility.
****
| 20 | |
****
**Cybersecurity,
Data Privacy and Intellectual Property Risks**
****
**Cybersecurity
incidents, including data breaches and ransomware, may compromise systems, disrupt operations, and cause financial loss.**
Attackers
may target data centers, control systems, employee devices, or third-party providers. We may incur significant costs to investigate,
remediate and enhance defenses, and we may face regulatory inquiries or litigation.
****
**Loss
of key personnel or inability to recruit and retain qualified employees may adversely affect our operations and growth.**
Competition
for experienced blockchain and digital asset professionals is intense.
****
**Litigation,
arbitration or governmental proceedings may be costly, time-consuming, and disruptive, and adverse outcomes could result in significant
liabilities.**
Even
claims we view as without merit can be expensive to defend.
****
**Our
stock price may be highly volatile, and future sales or issuances of our securities could depress the trading price.**
The
market price of digital asset-related equities has experienced extreme volatility, influenced by digital asset prices, regulatory developments,
investor sentiment, and macroeconomic conditions. Substantial sales by existing stockholders, issuances under our shelf or equity compensation,
or short selling could cause the trading price to decline.

Assessment
and mitigation. We conduct periodic and event-driven risk assessments to identify reasonably foreseeable internal and external cybersecurity
risks. Following these assessments, we implement and maintain safeguards designed to minimize identified risks and remediate gaps, including
multi-factor authentication, privileged access management, network segmentation, endpoint protection, vulnerability scanning, and patch
management. For digital asset-related operations, we emphasize multi-party key controls, segregation of duties, and monitoring of validator
performance and custody providers.
Third-party
risk management. We rely on certain third-party service providers, including custodians, cloud and data center providers, staking/validator
services, and other vendors. We assess relevant providers security controls during onboarding and periodically thereafter, including
certifications, audit reports, incident history, and contractual commitments to notify us of security incidents that may affect our company.
We incorporate cybersecurity requirements into applicable contracts.

**
**Overview**
We are a digital asset focused company. Beginning in the third calendar quarter of 2025, management expanded its
existing digital asset business to primarily focus on the Ethereum blockchain and ETH as the digital asset. This included expanding
toward an asset light operating model centered on Ethereum adjacent services (including advisory) and disciplined digital
asset treasury management. Our results are now driven primarily by operating efficiency in a lower capex model and Ethereum market conditions,
including their impact on client activity and the value of any ETH held in our treasury.
In June and July 2025, we strengthened our liquidity
through an underwritten public offering of common stock, private placements, and the establishment of our ATM Program permitting sales
of up to $20,000,000 of our common stock from time to time. We also uplisted our common stock to the NYSE American in June 2025.
Unless otherwise indicated, period to period comparisons
are presented for the two most recent fiscal years consistent with Item 303 of Regulation S-K, as amended.

**ETH Treasury Strategy, Drivers and Outlook**
Our operating model is now anchored by our ETH
Treasury Strategy and capital-light ecosystem services. The key drivers of our results include (i) ETH market conditions, which affect
the value of our holdings and the economics of any staking or staking-adjacent activities; (ii) client demand for Ethereum-adjacent services,
including advisory; (iii) security, custody and compliance expenditures necessary to support institutional-grade treasury
operations; and (iv) access to capital to opportunistically acquire ETH and invest in enabling infrastructure.
Treasury and yield framework.
Our objective is to grow our net ETH position over time, subject to risk and liquidity constraints. We evaluate staking and related mechanisms
based on security, liquidity, counterparty and regulatory profiles. We expect staking yields to evolve with validator participation rates,
protocol parameters and market conditions. Where we deploy ETH to staking or analogous activities, we intend to size exposures conservatively,
prioritize best-in-class custody and validator operations (including multi-client diversity and performance monitoring), and maintain
appropriate unencumbered liquidity to meet corporate needs. We may rebalance or unwind positions in response to changes in risk, reward,
or regulatory context.
Operating expenditures
and investment priorities. As an ETH-focused company, we expect a mix shift in operating expenses toward cybersecurity, custody,
treasury operations, compliance and technology enablement for advisory and analytics. Capital expenditures are expected to
remain modest relative to a mining-centric model. We intend to maintain a flexible cost structure aligned with services activity and treasury
scale.
Key trends and uncertainties.
We are monitoring (i) protocol upgrades on Ethereums roadmap and their implications for staking yields, fee markets and network
security; (ii) growth in L2 activity and cross-chain interoperability; (iii) institutional adoption trends, including tokenization initiatives
and regulated market-structure developments; (iv) availability and terms of regulated custodial services; and (v) evolving U.S. and non-U.S.
regulatory frameworks applicable to digital assets and staking.
Liquidity considerations.
Our liquidity planning considers ETH price volatility, potential impairment charges under applicable accounting policies, the liquidity
profile of any staked positions and our ability to access capital markets through our shelf registration and at-the-market program. We
intend to maintain sufficient liquidity to support operations, regulatory compliance, and security investments, while seeking opportunities
to increase ETH holdings when market conditions are attractive.
Known events reasonably
likely to affect future results. Our future results may be materially affected by changes in ETH prices and staking economics; regulatory
developments pertaining to ETH, staking and custody; counterparty or custodian developments; cybersecurity investments and events; and
market structure changes affecting liquidity and capital access for digital-asset issuers.
**Key Performance Drivers**
Key performance drivers include ETH market conditions
and staking economics; client demand for advisory services; and access to capital
under our shelf and ATM Program. We focus on treasury security and liquidity, sizing of staking or staking adjacent activities,
and maintaining flexibility to rebalance positions as risk return or regulatory contexts evolve. Given our pivot to an asset light, ETH
focused model, energy use metrics from prior mining operations are no longer decision useful and have been excluded from MD&A.

*Revenues*
**
During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025,
revenues were $6,095, compared to $3,310 during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024. The increase in revenue was a result of the following:
| 
| Revenue from the sale of mining equipment.
During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, revenue from the sale of mining equipment was $846, compared to $231 in the fiscal
year ended August 31, 2024. The increase was primarily the result of new brokered transactions of transformers and an increase in the
sale of ASIC miners to third parties. | |
| 
| Revenue from self-mining. During
the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, revenue from self-mining was $3,133, compared to $3,031 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024.
Mining revenues were positively impacted during the 2025 period as a result of the purchase of additional ASIC miners in November 2024,
most of which were installed in December 2024. This increase was offset by several factors, including delays in installing newly acquired
miners, miners that were offline due to maintenance issues, and the termination of our hosting agreement with Soluna SW, LLC as of April
30, 2025. The increase in self-ming revenue was also offset by the execution of additional machine lease agreements resulting in less
self-mining revenue and more leasing revenue. | |
| 
| Revenue from hosting. During the
fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, revenue from hosting was $0, compared to $48 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024. The decrease
was a result of the termination of all hosting clients in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. | |
| 
| Revenue from consulting. During
the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, revenue from consulting was $235, as compared to $0 during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024.
All of the consulting revenue in 2025 was derived from one consulting agreement under which the Company is obligated to provide various
operational, maintenance and consulting services from May 16, 2025 to May 15, 2026 for aggregate consideration of $800, of which half
was paid on May 16, 2025. | |
| 
| Revenue from leasing. During the
fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, revenue from the leasing of miners was $1,881, as compared to $0 during the fiscal year ended August
31, 2024. Under the March 2025 machine lease agreement, the lessee paid $850 for all revenues generated from 2,500 of our miners from
March 8, 2025 to May 7, 2025. Under the May 2025 machine lease agreement, the lessee agreed to pay $3,200 for all revenues generated from
3,000 of our miners from May 16, 2025 to December 31, 2025. | |
*Cost of Sales*
**
Major components of cost of sales include rent
to house mining and hosting equipment, electricity, depreciation, and supplies. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, cost of
sales were $5,785, compared to $3,473 during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024. The increase in cost of sales was a result of the
following:
| 
| Cost of sales mining equipment. Cost
of sales related to sales of mining equipment was $752 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, compared to $181 for the fiscal year
ended August 31, 2024. Cost of sales related to sales of mining equipment consisted of the purchase price of equipment sold, plus shipping
and value added tax on the equipment sales reported under the completed sale method. | |
| 
| Cost of sales self-mining. Cost
of sales related self-mining remained relatively flat at $3,277 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, compared to $3,254 in the fiscal
year ended August 31, 2024. Cost of sales normally includes electricity, utilities, facilities costs, and supplies where mining is performed
in self-owned facilities. Power prices are the most significant cost driver and can be highly volatile and global events may cause fuel
prices, and to a lesser extent power prices, to fluctuate widely. | |
| 
| Cost of sales hosting. Cost of
sales related to hosting was $-0- in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, compared to $38 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024.
Cost of sales normally includes utilities, facilities costs, and supplies. Unlike the cost of sales from mining, cost of sales from hosting
does not include electricity costs, as such costs are passed on to the hosting client. | |
| 
| Cost of sales consulting. Cost
of sales related to consulting services was $7 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025 and $0 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024.
Cost of sales for consulting services consists primarily of an allocation of a percentage of the labor costs of the employees who provide
the consulting services. | |
| 
| Cost of sales leasing. Cost of
sales related to leasing was $1,749 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, compared to $0 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024.
The increase in cost of sales leasing is a result of the Machine Lease Agreement Bitmine entered with KULR Technology Group, Inc. on May
16, 2025. As part of this agreement, Bitmine is responsible for maintaining the equipment and ensuring continuous operation, either directly
or through third-party providers. | |
| 27 | |
*Operating Expenses*
| 
| General and administrative expenses. General
and administrative expenses were $13,984 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, compared to $2,279 in the fiscal year ended August
31, 2024. This increase was due to new bank and custody fees in 2025, reflecting higher transaction and storage costs. Further, professional
fees more than doubled, and officers compensation increased from 2024, driven by higher personnel costs. Employee shareholder compensation
also grew significantly, likely due to stock-based awards. | |
| 
| | Strategic Advisor expenses. Estimated fees that will be
incurred from industry-experienced third parties to manage the Companys multi-billion dollar ETH
portfolio are expected to be in the range of $40 to $50 million annually. The Company expects these fees
to be significantly offset by projected staking fees earned from the same ETH portfolio, although there
can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in doing so. | |
| 
| Warrant expense. Warrant Expense
was $348,959 in fiscal year 2025 which was entirely related to the Strategic Advisor warrants. Refer to Note 10Stock Based
Compensation within the financial statements for additional details. | |
| 
| Impairment of fixed assets. Impairment of fixed assets was
$1,912 in August 31, 2025, as compared to $120 in August 31, 2024, reflecting managements review of under-utilized or obsolete
equipment and site-specific assets. | |
| 
| The Company acquired ETH on top of its BTC holdings
as part of our business expansion during fiscal year 2025 and therefore only held an ETH balance as of August 31, 2025. As a result, the
Company recognized the following on its ETH and BTC holdings: | |
| 
| Realized gain from the sale of digital assets of $3,748 for the fiscal year ended August
31, 2025, as compared to $114 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024; and | |
| 
| Unrealized gain from the sale of digital assets holding of $805,008 for the fiscal year
ended August 31, 2025, as compared to $0 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024. | |
*Other Income (Expense)*
**
During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025,
the Company incurred $3,339 in other expenses, as compared to other expenses of $845 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024, which was
driven by:
| 
| Interest expense. Interest expense
remained relatively flat at $245 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, as compared to $269 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024. | |
| 
| Interest income. Interest income
was $1 in fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, as compared to $55 in fiscal year ended August 31, 2024. | |
| 
| Loss on the extinguishment of debt. The
company incurred a loss on the extinguishment of its debt of $289 during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, as compared to $320 in
fiscal year ended August 31, 2024, which is associated with financings with Luxor. Refer to Note 7 Loan Payable and Note
8 Related Party Transactions for additional documentation. | |
| 
| Loss on investment in joint venture and
loss on sale of equipment. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, the Company disposed of $2,100 related to three transformers
and select addback equipment held in Trinidad and $720 in unfinished Rykor Containers held at the Roc Mining joint venture for $400 and
$110 in cash, respectively. The preceding dispositions resulted in $1,528 and $1,278 recorded in loss on the sale of equipment and loss
on investment in joint venture, respectively, within the Statement of Income. | |
****
| 28 | |
*Income Taxes*
**
During fiscal year 2025, our expense from
income taxes primarily related to an increase in our deferred tax liability related to the unrealized built-in gain on our ETH
holdings relative to fiscal year 2024.
**Known Trends, Events and Uncertainties**
*Business expansion*. Following our July
2025 financings, we pivoted to a services-led model and reduced proprietary mining exposure, including by redeploying/retiring less-efficient
machines, concentrating hashrate at lower-cost sites and phasing capex. In the second half of calendar 2025, we further reduced exposure
to halving-driven volatility by pivoting to a services-led, capital-light model and by winding down new proprietary mining investments.
We discuss the implications for liquidity, capital needs and accounting estimates under *Liquidity and Capital Resources*
and *Critical Accounting Estimates.*
This reduces direct exposure to network difficulty
and power prices but increases reliance on client demand for advisory and leasing services. We expect services mix and pricing
to be key drivers of variability.
*Ethereum market dynamics.* ETH price levels
influence client activity and the value of any ETH held in treasury. Increased adoption or volatility can raise demand for advisory services; conversely, sustained price declines could dampen client spending.
*Capital markets and liquidity.* We believe
our June and July 2025 transactions, shelf registration and ATM Program provide flexibility to access equity capital opportunistically
to support working capital and selective investments aligned with a capital-light strategy. Adverse market conditions or unfavorable industry
sentiment could constrain our ability to raise capital on acceptable terms.
*Regulatory environment.* Evolving U.S. and
foreign regulations related to digital assets, data center operations, financial markets and custody may impose new compliance obligations
or restrictions.
**Liquidity and Capital Resources**
****
**Current liquidity position**
****
As of August 31, 2025, the Company had $511,999
in cash on hand and working capital of $503,045. Our primary sources of liquidity during and subsequent to the period included:
| 
| net proceeds from our June 2025 underwritten
public offering of common stock of approximately $7,717,761, after underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses; | |
| 
| proceeds from July 2025 private placements of
common stock and pre-funded warrants and digital asset consideration of approximately $230,290; | |
| 
| our Registration Statement on Form S-3ASR filed
July 9, 2025 and an equity sales agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and ThinkEquity LLC, providing the ability, at our discretion
and subject to market conditions, to sell up to $20 billion of our common stock from time to time in our ATM Program; and | |
| 
| our related-party line of credit with IDI, which
was addressed through a letter agreement and restructuring arrangements described below. | |
The IDI obligations were addressed via restructuring
as disclosed in the Companys Registration Statement on Form S-1 and the Companys Registration Statement on Form S-3ASR.
We also expanded related party disclosures to include the largest aggregate principal outstanding and amounts of principal and interest
paid under the IDI line during the applicable periods.

Net cash used in operating activities was $4,149
for the fiscal year ended August, 31 2025, compared to $30 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024. The increase in operating cash outflow
was primarily due to an increase in general and administrative expenses which were driven by increased compensation costs. This increase
in cash outflow was offset by an increase in cash received from the Companys revenue generating activities.
Net cash used in investing activities was $7,432,009
for the fiscal year ended August, 31 2025, compared to $67 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024. The increase in investing cash outflow
was almost entirely driven by the $7,433,131 purchase of ETH. This amount was offset by proceeds from the sale of ETH and BTC.
Net cash provided by financing activities was
$7,947,659 for the fiscal year ended August, 31 2025, compared to $325 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024. This increase was primarily
driven by the $7,717,761 of proceeds received from the Companys ATM offering and $230,290 of proceeds received from the Companys
private placement and prefunded warrants. Refer to *Note 10 Stock-Based Compensation* within the financial statements for
further details regarding these offerings.
**Material cash requirements and known liquidity
risks**
We expect the following material cash requirements
over the next 12 months under our capital-light model:
| 
| 
| 
estimated
fees that will be incurred from industry-experienced third parties to manage the Companys multi-billion dollar ETH portfolio
are expected to be in the range of $40 to $50 million annually. The Company expects these fees to be significantly offset by projected
staking fees earned from the same ETH portfolio, although there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in doing
so; | |
| 
| 
| 
modest
capital expenditures of approximately $1,500 primarily for maintenance of existing equipment and technology platforms supporting
services; | |
| 
| 
| 
working
capital to support services delivery, equipment leasing, and advisory engagements of approximately $1,000 per month at current run-rate
activity levels; and | |
| 
| 
| 
public
company costs, including audit and compliance, of approximately $4,000 annually. | |
| 30 | |
Our liquidity is now less sensitive to network
difficulty and power price volatility than under a mining-centric model, though BTC price levels can influence client demand and the value
of any BTC held in treasury. We mitigate liquidity risks by (i) maintaining a flexible cost structure aligned with services activity,
(ii) limiting new capex commitments, and (iii) preserving access to equity capital via our shelf and ATM facilities. We believe, based
on our current operating plan, expected cash on hand, anticipated operating cash flows and access to capital under our shelf/ATM, that
we will have sufficient liquidity to fund operations for at least the next 12 months. Beyond 12 months, our ability to fund growth and
meet obligations will depend on market conditions, client demand for services, and access to capital on acceptable terms.
*Off-balance sheet arrangements and commitments.*We do not have material off-balance sheet arrangements as defined by Item 303. Legacy commitments under power, site control and joint-venture
agreements are being evaluated in light of our strategic shift; any remaining obligations (e.g., minimums or deposits) are included in
our liquidity planning. We do not expect to enter into new long-term power purchase or build-to-suit arrangements absent clear, low-risk
returns.
*Counterparty and market developments*. We
monitor counterparties in the digital asset ecosystem for credit and operational risks, including custodians, pool operators, hosting
partners and joint venture partners. We currently do not have material assets with bankrupt or suspended counterparties, and we assess custody practices,
insurance and operational controls at our partners. Disruptions in digital asset markets, regulatory developments or power market dislocations
could adversely affect our liquidity, capital access and operational continuity.
**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**
****
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet
arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on the Companys financial condition,
changes in financial condition, and results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
**Critical Accounting Estimates**
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance
with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues,
expenses and related disclosures. We consider the following to be our critical accounting estimates because they involve significant judgment,
are subject to uncertainty, and could materially impact our financial results if actual results differ from our estimates. This discussion
supplements, and should be read together with, the summary of significant accounting policies in our financial statement notes.
**
*ASU 2023-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and
Other Digital Assets: Accounting for and Disclosure of Digital Assets*. In fiscal year 2025, we account for eligible digital
assets at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, consistent with ASU 2023-08. We present digital assets
separately on the balance sheet and disclose changes in their carrying amounts. This accounting may increase the volatility of our
reported results relative to prior impairment-based accounting.
**
*Digital assetsimpairment recognition*.
We recognize digital assets received from operations pursuant to ASC 606 and subsequently account for the assets under our policy supported
by applicable GAAP. Management monitors digital asset balances for impairment indicators and measures impairment when required. The carrying
amount is subject to market price volatility, and our estimates of impairment depend on the timing and frequency of measurement. We performed
analyses, including those requested by the SEC staff, to assess the materiality of alternative impairment measurement methods and concluded
that differences were not material for the periods presented. Key inputs include observable market prices and timing of acquisitions/disposals.
| 31 | |
*Revenue recognitionservices and
equipment leasing*. Under ASC 606, we identify our customer, performance obligations and transaction price for
consulting/advisory services, and equipment/container leasing. Revenue is recognized
as services are provided (over time) or upon transfer of control (point-in-time) for equipment leasing. For leasing arrangements
within the scope of ASC 842, we assess lease classification and recognize lease income over the lease term. Estimates include
variable consideration (e.g., success-based fees), collectability, and principal-versus-agent considerations.
**
*Property and equipmentuseful lives,
impairment and recoverability*. We depreciate miners, containers and related site equipment over estimated useful lives of 210
years. With our shift to a capital-light model, we evaluate long-lived assets for impairment when indicators arise (e.g., reduced utilization
or obsolescence) and assess recoverability at the asset group level. Key inputs include expected service lives, secondary market values
and expected cash flows from any continued use or disposition.
**
*Stock-based compensation*. We measure equity
awards at grant-date fair value under ASC 718 using observable market prices and, where applicable, option-pricing models. Inputs include
volatility, expected term and risk-free rates.
**
*Fair value of derivative liabilities and financing
instruments*. Certain financing arrangements contain embedded features accounted for as derivatives measured at fair value with changes
recognized in earnings. We estimate fair value using market-based models that require assumptions about volatility, discount rates and
probability-weighted outcomes.
**
*Collectability of receivables; warranty and
returns for equipment sales*. Where we provide services or sell equipment on credit, we assess collectability considering customer
creditworthiness, collateral and payment history, and we establish allowances for expected credit losses based on historical experience
and current conditions. For equipment transactions with warranty obligations, we estimate reserves based on observed failure rates, supplier
warranties and repair logistics.
Accounting policies and estimates are reviewed
periodically for consistency with SEC guidance, including the 2003 MD&A Guidance and the 2020 amendments to Item 303. We will update
our critical accounting estimates as our operations evolve and additional trends and data become reasonably available.
**Item
7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.**
The
following discussion about our market risk exposures involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from
those projected in the forward-looking statements.
**Market Price Risk of ETH and BTC.** We
have used a significant portion of our cash, including cash generated from capital raising transactions, to acquire ETH and BTC and, as
of August 31, 2025, we held approximately 1,874,926.8 in ETH and 191.7 BTC, tokens. The carrying value of our ETH and BTC as of August
31, 2025 was $8,260,608,190 and $20,922,793, respectively, which reflects cumulative unrealized appreciation in fair market value of $805,008,462
on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. As discussed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Digital Assets, to the Consolidated
Financial Statements, the Company accounts for its digital assets, which are comprised of BTC and ETH as indefinite-lived intangible assets
in accordance with ASC 350-60, *IntangiblesGoodwill and Other-Crypto Assets*. The Companys digital assets are initially
recorded at cost. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value, with the gain or loss associated with remeasurement of the digital assets
reported in net income. The fair value of the Companys digital assets is determined based on the quoted price in its principal
market, CoinBase, at the time of measurement (midnight UTC). The Company determines its principal market as the market that it has access
to and has the greatest volume and level of orderly transactions in accordance with ASC 820, *Fair Value Measurement*. The Company
tracks the cost of its digital assets using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method. For example, the market price of ETH on the Coinbase exchange (our principal market for ETH and BTC) ranged from a low of $1,566.15 to
a high of $4,779.57 during the year ended August 31, 2025, but the carrying value of each ETH we held at the end of the reporting period
reflects the lowest price of one ETH quoted on the active exchange at any time since its acquisition. Similarly, the market price of BTC
on the Coinbase exchange ranged from a low of $54,382.00 to a high of $120,280.70 during the same period, but the carrying value of each
BTC we held at the end of the reporting period reflects the lowest price of one BTC quoted on the active exchange at any time since its
acquisition. Therefore, negative swings in the market price of either ETH or BTC could have a material
impact on our earnings and on the carrying value of our digital assets. Positive swings in the market price of ETH and BTC are not reflected
in the carrying value of our digital assets and impact earnings only when the ETH or BTC are sold at a gain. For the fiscal year ended
August 31, 2025, we recorded an unrealized gain of $805,008,462 in fair market value on our ETH and BTC.
| 32 | |
We
are exposed to the impact of market price changes in ETH, BTC and foreign currency fluctuations.
Digital
asset market price risk ETH. The fair value of our ETH holdings is subject to significant volatility. Adverse movements in
ETH prices could result in impairment charges under applicable accounting policies and materially affect our results of operations and
shareholders equity. We do not currently employ derivative hedges to mitigate ETH price risk, and any such strategies, if adopted,
would introduce additional basis, liquidity, counterparty and operational risks.
Counterparty
and custodial concentration risk. Our ETH treasury may be held with one or more qualified custodians or, where appropriate, in self-custody
arrangements with multi-signature and other controls. Concentration with any custodian increases the
impact of a counterparty failure or operational disruption. We evaluate the financial condition, controls, and insurance arrangements
of key providers and monitor concentration exposures.
Operational
and cybersecurity risk. Our market risk management recognizes that cybersecurity events can have financial effects analogous to market
losses. We invest in security architecture, monitoring, incident response and third-party diligence and continually evaluate our defenses
against evolving threats, including threats specific to key management.
Regulatory
risk. Regulatory changes can affect market access, liquidity, custody structures, accounting outcomes, and tax treatment for ETH,
staking and related activities. We monitor legislative and regulatory developments and may modify our operations or treasury activities
in response to changes in law, regulation, or enforcement priorities.
| 33 | |
Digital
asset market price risk BTC and mining economics. BTC prices, global hash rate and network difficulty, power costs, pool
fees, and miner efficiency materially influence expected BTC mining margins and the value of any BTC held. Curtailments or redeployments
may occur during adverse economics. We evaluate BTC exposure relative to risk-adjusted returns, liquidity needs, and regulatory considerations.

controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this
Annual Report. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable
assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship
of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving
their control objectives. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this
Annual Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

**Managements
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**
In connection with the
preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2025, management identified material weaknesses in
our internal control over financial reporting (ICFR). Specifically, we determined that our internal controls were not appropriately designed
or operating effectively across all five components of the COSO Internal Control, Integrated Framework (2013): Control Environment, Risk
Assessment, Control Activities, Information and Communication, and Monitoring Activities. As described below, these deficiencies, in aggregate
and individually, create a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual and/or interim financial statements would
not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Accordingly, management has concluded that our ICFR was not effective as of August 31,
2025.
| 
| Control Environment: We did not maintain an effective
control environment or an adequate corporate governance structure. We lacked a sufficient complement of personnel with the appropriate
level of accounting knowledge, training, and experience to reliably execute internal control responsibilities. This shortage of qualified
accounting staff, combined with limited oversight, contributed to ineffective segregation of duties. | |
| 
| Risk Assessment: We did not have any formal process to identify
and assess risks of material misstatement to our financial statements, including risks of fraud. As a result, significant risks were
neither identified nor mitigated by internal controls. | 
|
| 
| Control Activities: Due to the ineffective control
environment and the absence of risk assessment, we failed to design and implement effective control activities for the accounting and
financial reporting processes. We did not have documented accounting policies and standard operating procedures to facilitate complete,
accurate, and timely financial reporting and disclosures. | |
| 
| Information and Communication: We did not establish
effective information and communication processes to support our internal control system. Employees were not adequately informed of their
control responsibilities and key control activities, leading to inconsistent execution of the limited control activities that did exist.
Additionally, we did not design and maintain effective information technology (IT) general controls for information systems
that are relevant to the preparation of our financial statements. These IT control deficiencies, in aggregate, create a reasonable possibility
that data underlying financial reporting could be incomplete or inaccurate. | |
| 
| Monitoring Activities: We did not design and
implement an effective monitoring system to assess the performance of our internal controls over time. There was no internal audit function
or any equivalent program for conducting ongoing or separate evaluations of control effectiveness. We did not perform periodic reviews
or testing of controls to determine whether they were operating as intended. | |
Our management is in
the process of developing a remediation plan and is taking steps to remediate these material weaknesses. These material weaknesses will
be considered remediated when our management designs and implements effective controls that operate for a sufficient period of time and
our management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are effective. Our management will continue to monitor the effectiveness
of our remediation plan and will make the changes it determines to be appropriate. Although we intend to complete this remediation process
as quickly as practicable, we cannot at this time estimate how long it will take, and our initiatives may not prove to be successful in
remediating the material weakness.
Furthermore, we cannot assure that the measures
we have taken to date, and actions we may take in the future, will be sufficient to remediate the control deficiencies that led to our
material weaknesses in our ICFR or that they will prevent or avoid potential future material weaknesses. Further, additional weaknesses
in our disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting may be discovered in the future. Any failure to develop or maintain
effective controls or any difficulties encountered in their implementation or improvement could limit our ability to prevent or detect
a misstatement of our accounts or disclosures that could result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements.
In such case, we may be unable to maintain compliance with securities law requirements regarding timely filing of periodic reports in
addition to the listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange, investors may lose confidence in our financial reporting and our
stock price may decline as a result.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**
****
To
the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Bitmine
Immersion Technologies, Inc.
**Opinion
on the Financial Statements**
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. as of August 31, 2025, and 2024, and
the related consolidated statements of income (loss), changes in stockholders equity, and cash flows for the years then ended,
and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. as of August 31, 2025, and 2024,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
**Basis
for Opinion**
**
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the entitys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. in accordance with
the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Bitmine
Immersion Technologies, Inc. is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for
the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entitys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly,
we express no such opinion.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error
or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
**
**Critical
Audit Matters**
The
critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated
or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial
statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters
does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit
matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
**Critical
Audit Matter 1: Valuation of Digital Assets**
****
**Description
of the Matter:**
****
Bitmine
Immersion Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary (Bitmine or the Company) operates in the digital
asset industry with a strategic focus on acquiring, holding, and managing cryptocurrency assets as part of its treasury management activities.
During 2025, the Company refined its business strategy to emphasize digital asset treasury operations, reflecting a transition from primarily
mining and hosting activities toward the long-term accumulation and optimization of cryptocurrency holdings.
| F-2 | |
| | |
**How
the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit**
****
Our
audit procedures related to the valuation and existence of Bitcoin holdings included the following:
| 
| We
evaluated the design of controls over the process for recording digital assets transactions. | |
| 
| We
obtained evidence of ownership by verifying the Companys control over the public addresses
associated with its digital asset holdings. | |
| 
| We
independently calculated the fair value of Bitcoin and ETH using data from multiple reputable
cryptocurrency exchanges and compared our valuation to the Companys recorded amounts. | |
| 
| We
performed procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the Bitcoin and ETH transaction
data used in the Companys accounting records. | |
| 
| We
obtained management memorandum and evaluated its reasonableness relating to the classification
of digital assets in accordance with ASC 350-60, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other-Crypto
Assets | |
| 
| We
assessed the Companys disclosures related to the valuation methodology and risks associated
with holding digital assets. | |
**Auditors

****
**Description
of the Matter:**
****
The
company generates significant revenue from Bitcoin mining activities, which involves the validation of transactions on the Bitcoin blockchain
and the subsequent receipt of newly minted Bitcoins. The revenue recognition and valuation of these Bitcoin mining activities are complex
due to the decentralized nature of the blockchain, the volatility of Bitcoin prices, and the lack of centralized oversight.

**NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
**(Dollar

**NOTE
1 NATURE OF THE BUSINESS**
**
*About
Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc.*
Bitmine
Immersion Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary (Bitmine or the Company) operates in the digital
asset industry with a strategic focus on acquiring, holding, and managing digital assets as part of its treasury management activities.
During 2025, the Company refined its business strategy to emphasize digital asset treasury operations, reflecting a transition from primarily
mining and hosting activities toward the long-term accumulation and optimization of digital asset holdings. Bitmine continues to maintain
ancillary mining, hosting, and consulting operations; however, its primary objective is to manage digital assets as long-term strategic
reserves to support liquidity, and capital formation.
During
the year ending August 31, 2025, the Company completed several capital raising activities for which the proceeds were used to acquire
ETH. Refer to Note 9, Stockholders Equity, for additional information regarding the Companys capital raises.
The
Companys year-end is August 31st.
*Basis
of Presentation*
The
accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) which is the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB
to be applied by non-governmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP) in the United States.
*Principles
of Consolidation*
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
account balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
*Reverse
Stock Split*
On
May 15, 2025, the Company effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of its common stock (the Reverse Stock Split). The Reverse
Stock Split became effective by filing an amendment to the Companys certificate of incorporation. The Reverse Stock Split was
necessary to enable the Company to meet the initial minimum share price requirements of a national securities exchange. The Company did
not issue any fractional shares as a result of the reverse split. Instead, shareholders received cash equal to the market value of their
fractional shares.
The
Companys consolidated financial statements in this report for the periods ended August 31, 2025, and August 31, 2024, and all
references thereto have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the split.
*Reclassifications*
**
Certain
amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Such reclassifications did not have a
material effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations as previously reported.
**NOTE
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES**
*Use
of Estimates*
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.
The
most significant estimates relate to the calculation of stock-based compensation, collectability of notes receivable, useful lives and
recoverability of long-lived assets, depreciation methods, income taxes and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical
experience, known or expected trends, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable given the quality of information
available as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates
about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from
these estimates. There have been no material changes to the Companys accounting estimates since the Companys consolidated
financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025.
*Segment
Reporting*
The
Company and its wholly owned subsidiary operate in one segment. In accordance with the Segment Reporting Topic of the ASC,
the Companys chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results
to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. All material Company operations qualify
for aggregation due to their similar customer base and similarities in economic characteristics, nature of products and services, and
procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes.
| F-8 | |
| | |
*Revenue
Recognition*
The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company has the following revenue streams:
revenues from digital currency mining, revenues from hosting, revenues from the sale of mining equipment, revenues from leasing, and
revenues from consulting. A description of the revenue recognition criteria for each revenue stream is shown below:
**
*Revenues
from Digital Currency Mining*
The
Company participates in digital asset mining pools by executing agreements with a mining pool operator (the Luxor Mining Pool) to perform
hash computation services (i.e. hashrate) for the mining pool in exchange for consideration. The mining pool applies the Full-Pay-Per-Share
(FPPS) payout model. Under the FPPS model, the mining pool pays the Company a fixed amount for each valid share of computation
it submits, regardless of whether the pool successfully mines a block on a daily basis (beginning at 0:00:00 UTC). The mining pool calculates
a per-share payout based on their own calculation of expected block rewards and transaction fees, which is primarily based on the hashrate
provided to the mining pool as a percentage of total network hashrate, current blockchain difficulty, and other inputs.
The
Company decides when to provide hashrate to the mining pool under the agreements and the Companys enforceable right to compensation
begins only when, and lasts as long as, the Company provides hashrate to the mining pool. The only consideration due to the Company relates
to the provision of hashrate. Such agreements are freely terminable at any time by the Company or by the pool operator, without penalty
to either party. Providing hashrate in digital asset transaction verification services is an output of the Companys ordinary activities
and is the only performance obligation in the hash computation service agreement with mining pool operator.
The
transaction consideration received, is noncash consideration in the form of BTC. Changes in the fair value of the noncash consideration
after contract inception due to the form of the consideration (changes in the market price of BTC) are not included in the transaction
price and, therefore, are not included in revenue. The mining pool operator charges a fee to cover the costs of maintaining the pool.
These fees are deducted from amounts the Company may otherwise earn and are treated as a reduction to the consideration received.
For
accounting purposes, the contract term is less than 24 hours since the agreement between the Company and the mining pool is continually
renewed at the beginning of each measurement period. However, the continual renewal of the agreement does not represent a material right
requiring separate performance obligations, as the FPPS formula remains the same upon each renewal.
Revenue
is recognized over the contract term based on the price of BTC at the inception of the contract and the amount of BTC received
at the end of the contract.
There
is no significant financing component in these transactions, due to the performance obligations and settlement of the transactions being
on a daily basis.
*Revenues
from Hosting*
The
Company records revenue from hosting agreements that establish enforceable rights and obligations with customers who place their mining
equipment in the Companys co-hosting facility. Under these agreements, the Company has a single performance obligation: to provide
energized space and related hosting services, including electricity, infrastructure, and operational support, which enable the customers
mining operations. The transaction price consists of fixed amounts billed in U.S. dollars for electricity and other fees, as well as
a variable component based on a percentage of digital assets generated by the customers mining activities. Because there is only
one performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to hosting services. Revenue is recognized over time as the Company
satisfies its performance obligation by providing continuous hosting services. Hosting revenues consist of amounts billed in U.S. dollars
for electricity and other fees, and a percentage of digital assets generated by the clients hosting activities. For amounts billed
in U.S. dollars, revenue is recognized over-time as the Company provides continuous hosting services. Revenue related to the variable
component, which is based on a percentage of digital assets generated by the customers mining activities, is recognized over time
as the Company provides hosting services and the customer simultaneously benefits from those services. The amount of digital assets earned
is measured daily based on the mining proceeds attributable to the customers operations, and settlement occurs when the Company
receives its share from the mining pool. Mining proceeds are initially received into a cold wallet, and the Company remits the customers
portion upon receipt.
*Revenues
from the Sale of Mining Equipment*
During
the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, the Company sold and delivered transformers and other mining equipment to customers as part of
its resale activities. These transactions are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers*.
Each sale represents a distinct performance obligation, which is satisfied at a point in time when control of the equipment transfers
to the customergenerally upon delivery and acceptance under the terms of the purchase order. The transaction price is fixed and
determinable at contract inception, and there are no variable consideration components or significant financing elements. The Company
allocates the entire transaction price to the single performance obligation and recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control
of the equipment.
*Revenues
from Leasing*
**
During
the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, the Company entered into two machine leasing agreements with KULR Technology Group, Inc. (KULR
or the Lessee). Under the terms of these agreements, the Company provides KULR the right to use 3,000 mining machines and
associated operational services for a term of 228 days. This arrangement represents a single performance obligation satisfied over time.
The total transaction price is $3,200,000, subject to variable consideration in the form of downtime credits. Downtime credits represent
reductions in the lease fee owed by KULR if actual operational downtime exceeds the agreed threshold, calculated based on the BTC
that would have been mined during the excess downtime and valued at the closing price as published by Yahoo Finance at midnight Universal
Time Coordinated (UTC) on the relevant date. Downtime credits are estimated using the expected value method and are constrained until
downtime occurs and can be measured reliably. The entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Revenue
is recognized over time on a straight-line basis across the 228-day term, using an output method based on time elapsed. Variable consideration
is recognized only when it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur, consistent with ASC 606-10-32-12. Downtime credits,
finalized after measurement, are recorded as a reduction to revenue.

*Revenues
from Consulting*
**
In
2025, the Company began selling consulting services and entered into a consulting and services agreement with KULR. Under this agreement,
the Company agreed to provide a variety of services related to both the miners subject to the Lease and BTC mining operations in
general. Services related to leased miners include performing all commercially reasonable and necessary activities required for the miners
to operate consistent with the performance guidelines in the Lease; managing relationships with hosting providers for both leased equipment
and other equipment owned by the customer; managing mining pool providers; coordinating on-site and off-site miner repairs; monitoring
miner performance through dashboards and troubleshooting network errors; conducting market analysis, including miner pricing and purchase/sale
recommendations; and handling shipping logistics for miner imports and exports.
In
addition, the Company provides treasury management services, including advice on security and custody solutions; regulatory and compliance
expertise, including U.S. GAAP accounting guidance and disclosures; risk management and hedging strategies; techniques to maximize BTC
exposure as a public company; customized treasury solutions; and proactive volatility management.
The
agreement represents a legally enforceable contract with specified rights, payment terms, and commercial substance. The services are
treated as a single performance obligation because they are closely connected and collectively provide a unified outcome for the customer.
The transaction price for the agreement is fixed at $800, with no significant variable consideration identified, and no significant financing components. The entire transaction
price is allocated to the combined performance obligation. Revenue is recognized over time on a straight-line basis across the 12-month
term, as services are provided continuously and the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services. The Company
determines cost of sales for consulting contracts based on each consultants hourly rate multiplied by the number of hours incurred
in performing the related services.
*Concentration
of Customers*
For
the years ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024, the Company derived approximately 37.7% and 0% of its total revenues, respectively,
from one customer. Additionally, the Company notes that there were no trade accounts receivable outstanding at both August 31, 2025 and
2024, and therefore no concentration of credit risk within this population.
*Contract
Liabilities*
Contract
liabilities represent amounts received or due from customers before the Company transfers its software or services under an enforceable
agreement. Revenue is recognized in the period(s) when control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer. The amounts relate
to product or services based on the transaction price allocated to each performance obligation in the customer contract. It is presented
as current or non-current on the consolidated balance sheets, depending on whether goods or services are expected to be delivered within
the next 12 months.
The
Companys contract liabilities represent advance payments from customers relating to the sale of transformers subject to the terms
of a purchase order. As of August 31, 2025 the Companys contract liability balance amounted to $1,067. As of August 31, 2024 the
Company had $790 of contract liabilities which represented advance payments from a related party to the Company.
*Cash
and Cash Equivalents*
The
Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
The Company maintains cash balances in deposit accounts with major financial institutions, which at times exceed federally insured limits.
There have been no losses related to deposit balances held in excess of federally insured limits.
*Digital
Assets*
The
Company accounts for its digital assets, which are comprised of BTC and ETH as indefinite-lived
intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350-60, *IntangiblesGoodwill and Other-Crypto Assets*. The Company has ownership
of and control over its BTC and ETH and uses third-party custodial services at multiple locations that are geographically dispersed to
store its digital assets. The Companys digital assets are initially recorded at cost. Subsequently, they are measured at fair
value, with the gain or loss associated with remeasurement of the digital assets reported in net income.
The
fair value of the Companys digital assets is determined based on the quoted price in its principal market, CoinBase, at the time
of measurement (midnight UTC). The Company determines its principal market as the market that it has access to and has the greatest volume
and level of orderly transactions in accordance with ASC 820, *Fair Value Measurement*. The Company tracks the cost of its digital
assets using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method. During the years ending August 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company realized gains from
the sale of digital assets of $3,748 and $114, respectively.
Digital
assets earned by the Company through its mining activities are included within operating activities on the accompanying Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows. The sales of digital currencies are included within investing activities in the accompanying consolidated statements
of cash flows and any realized gains or losses from such sales are included in operating expense in the consolidated statements of income
and comprehensive income (loss).
The
Company holds its BTC in an account at Bitgo Trust (Bitgo), a well-known BTC custodian, which it also uses to liquidate
its BTC when necessary. The Company also has an account with Gemini Trust Company, LLC, which is regulated by the New York Department
of Financial Services as a backup facility.
Additionally,
the Company has strategically invested in ETH, becoming the largest corporate holder of ETH, with over 1,875 tokens valued at approximately
$8,260,607 as of August 31, 2025. These purchases were made through major OTC desks like Bitgo and Galaxy Digital. The Company views
ETH as a long-term reserve asset, central to its positioning in the AI and digital asset investment cycles and aims to eventually hold 5% of
the total ETH supply.
See
Note 3, Digital Assets, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the Companys purchases and
sales of digital assets.
| F-10 | |

*Property
and Equipment*
Property
and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated
useful lives for all other property and equipment are as follows:
SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED USEFUL LIVES OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
| 
| | 
Life (Years) | |
| 
Miners and mining equipment | | 
2 - 10 | |
**
The
Company reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of
an asset group may not be recoverable. This process includes (i) identifying whether an indicator of impairment exists, (ii) assessing
recoverability by comparing the carrying amount of the asset group to the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from
its use and eventual disposition, and (iii) if the asset group is not recoverable, measuring the impairment loss as the excess of the
carrying amount over fair value. Actual future outcomes could result in different conclusions that could materially affect the consolidated
financial statements.
No
depreciation is recorded on an asset until it is placed in service. Due to the nature of the equipment, it can only be placed in service
when the hosting site is properly configured to turn on the machines.
*Fair
Value of Financial Instruments*
**
Fair
value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the exit price) in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a hierarchal framework, which prioritizes and ranks
the level of market price observability used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. Market price observability is impacted
by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Observable inputs are inputs
that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable
inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information
available. Assets and liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
| 
| Level
1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |
| 
| Level
2: Inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset
or liability, either directly or indirectly. | |
| 
| Level
3: Inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect the Companys own assumptions about
the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. | |
Financial
assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
As
of August 31, 2025 and 2024, the carrying amounts of the Companys financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents and
accrued liabilities, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The Company recognizes transfers between levels at
the end of the reporting period as if the transfers occurred on the last day of the reporting period. There were no transfers during
the years ended August 31, 2025 or 2024.
The
Company holds digital assets in the form of both BTC and ETH, both of which have an active market to buy and sell. The Companys
digital assets are recorded at fair value under ASC 820 and are considered Level 1 financial instruments. The Company has designated
a principal market based on the market the Company has access to that has the greatest volume and level of orderly transactions for BTC
and ETH. The Company reassesses its principal market when facts and circumstances change, including but not limited to when new markets
become accessible, or the volume/activity in the current principal market declines.
**
*Basic
and Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share*
The
Company computes earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share (ASC
260). As there were participating securities, including Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, outstanding during
the years reported, the two-class method is utilized to compute the basic and dilutive EPS. Under the two-class method, undistributed
earnings is allocated among the holders of common stock and participating securities based on their contractual participation rights.
Because holders of participating securities do not have contractual obligation to share losses, losses were not allocated to holders
of participating securities and, therefore, the two-class method was not used for reporting period when the Company had a net loss.
Basic
EPS is computed by dividing undistributed earnings attributable to common stockholders, after allocating undistributed earnings to participating
securities, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted impact from potential common stock
instruments is calculated using the treasury stock method, if-converted method, and two-class method, unless the effect would be anti-dilutive.
The dilutive EPS is determined based on the most dilutive out of the if-converted or two-class method.
*Income
Taxes*
The
Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, *Accounting for Income Taxes*. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected
to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740,
the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
date. ASC 740-10-05, *Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes*, prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute
for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits
to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The amount recognized
is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company
assesses the validity of its conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions quarterly to determine if facts or circumstances have arisen
that might cause it to change its judgment regarding the likelihood of a tax positions sustainability under audit.
| F-11 | |
| | |
*Stock-Based
Compensation*
The
Company accounts for share-based compensation awards in accordance with ASC 718. For equity-classified share-based compensation awards,
the Company recognizes compensation expenses based on their grant-date fair value. For awards with service only vesting condition, the
Company recognizes compensation expenses on a straight-line basis. The impact of forfeiture is accounted for when they occur.
**
*Recent
Accounting Pronouncements*
*Crypto
Assets*
The
FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-08, *Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets: Accounting for
and Disclosure of Crypto Assets*. The goal of this update is to require certain crypto assets to be measured at fair value separately
on the balance sheet with gains and losses from changes in the fair value reported as unrealized gains or losses in the consolidated
statement of income each reporting period. Further, this update requires the name, cost basis, fair value, and number of units for each
significant crypto asset holding. ASU 2023-08 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2023-08 on September 1, 2024, resulting in no cumulative effect in fair value on digital
assets.
*Segment
Reporting*
The
FASB issued ASU 2023-07, *Segment Reporting, ASC 280: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.*This amendment requires enhanced
disclosures about significant segment expenses and other segment items on both an annual and interim basis. The Company has applied the
standard retrospectively to all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not impact
the Companys determination of reportable segments but resulted in enhanced disclosures related to segment expense information.
The adoption did not have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
*Business
Combinations - Joint Venture Formations*
**
The
FASB issued ASU 2023-05*, Business Combinations Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60)*. The amendments in this Update
address the accounting for contributions made to a joint venture, upon formation, in a joint ventures separate financial statements.
The objectives of the amendments are to (1) provide decision-useful information to investors and other allocators of capital (collectively,
investors) in a joint ventures financial statements and (2) reduce diversity in practice. The amendments in this Update are effective
prospectively for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Additionally, a joint venture that
was formed before January 1, 2025, may elect to apply the amendments retrospectively if it has sufficient information. Early adoption
is permitted in any interim or annual period in which financial statements have not yet been issued (or made available for issuance),
either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect ASU 2023-05 to have a material impact, as it has no new joint ventures
expected to be formed after the effective date of January 1, 2025.
*Leases*
The
FASB issued ASU 2023-01, *Leases, ASC 842: Common Control Arrangements*. This pronouncement requires entities to amortize leasehold
improvements associated with common control leases over the useful life to the common control group. The guidance is effective for fiscal
years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2023-01 did not have a significant
impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
*Liabilities
Supplier Finance Programs*
The
FASB issued ASU 2023-04, *LiabilitiesSupplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations*.
The ASU requires additional disclosures about supplier finance program obligations to enhance transparency of their effects on working
capital and liquidity. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within
those fiscal years*.*The Company does not utilize supplier finance programs. While the Company has previously entered into derivative
instruments in the normal course of business, no such instruments were outstanding as of August 31, 2025. Accordingly, adoption of ASU
2023-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

**NOTE
6 INVESTMENTS AND NOTES RECEIVABLES**
*Transaction with ROC Digital*
In
October 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with ROC Digital Mining I, LLC (the ROC Digital or ROC),
to jointly develop and operate a BTC mining operation in Pecos, Texas. Under the Agreement, the Company contributed one immersion
container, six transformers and cash, with a fair value of $987,429, as a capital contribution to ROC Digital Mining and this investment
was accounted for under the equity method in accordance with ASC 323. In return, the Company received 240 Class B Units of ROC Digital
pursuant to an ongoing offering of a total of 1,000 Class B Units at $4,400 per unit.
The
Company simultaneously sold ROC Digital four immersion containers for $1,200, which is payable pursuant to a promissory note that bears
interest at 5% per annum and is payable pursuant to monthly payments of $31,204 per month commencing on December 30, 2022, with any remaining
principal and interest payable in full on May 31, 2026. The note was secured by the equipment that was sold. The Company also obtained
the right to locate one container at the location that the Company would be able to use for self-mining.
On
January 17, 2025, and in connection with the sale of interests in the investment, the Company settled the remaining $600 of notes receivable
from ROC Digital Mining I, LLC by executing an agreement with Innovative Digital Investors (IDI) to apply the notes receivable from ROC Digital to amounts
attributable to IDI under a line of credit agreement (LOC) entered into by the Company
in 2022. Refer to Note 7, Loans Payable, for further details surrounding this loan. As a result of this agreement, there are no notes
receivable as of August 31, 2025.
*Investment in Joint Venture*
In October 2022, we entered into a joint venture arrangement with ROC
Digital Mining Manager LLC (ROC Manager) to jointly develop and operate a BTC mining operation in Pecos, Texas. Under
the joint venture, we contributed one immersion container, six transformers and cash with a value of $987as a capital contribution
to ROC Digital Mining I LLC (ROC Digital). An affiliate of ROC Manager also contributed an immersion container. We simultaneously
sold ROC Digital four immersion containers for $1,200, which is payable pursuant to a promissory note that bears interest at5% per
annum, and provides for monthly amortizing payments through May 31, 2026. The note is secured by the equipment that was sold. We own approximately30%
of ROC Digital. Day to day management of the operations of ROC Digital was provided by ROC Digital Mining LLC (ROC Mining),
an affiliate of ROC Manager in which we do not have an interest.
Due
to losses incurred on the Joint Venture, on August 29, 2025, the Company elected to sell its investment in ROC Digital. At the time
of the disposal, the Companys investment in ROC Digital was $668.
The Company decided to dispose of their interest in ROC Digital inclusive of a select property and equipment, primarily comprised of
$720
in unfinished Rykor Containers that were classified as fixed assets not in service. The Company settled on $110
of cash in exchange for the sale of its investment resulting in $1,278
recorded in loss on sale of investment within the consolidated statement of operations. The amount remained outstanding and was held
within other receivables as of August 31, 2025.
*Notes
Receivable*
Notes
receivable consists of notes received as partial consideration for the sale of mining equipment and are collateralized by the mining
equipment that was the subject of the sale with ROC Digital mentioned above. As of August 31, 2025 and 2024, notes receivable consists

**NOTE
7 LOANS PAYABLE**
*Line
of Credit from IDI*
On
October 19, 2022, the Company entered into a Line of Credit Agreement (the LOC Agreement) with Innovative Digital
Investors Emerging Technology, L.P. (IDI), a limited partnership controlled by Jonathan Bates, the Companys
former Chairman and CEO, and Raymond Mow, the Companys Chief Financial Officer and a Director. The LOC Agreement provided for loans
of up to $1,000
at the request of the Company to finance the purchase of equipment necessary for the operation of the Companys business, and
related working capital. Loans under the LOC Agreement accrue interest at twelve percent (12%)
per annum, compounded on a 30/360 monthly basis until the loans have been repaid in full. The Company had the right to submit draw
requests under the LOC Agreement until April 15, 2023. Each draw request is subject to the approval of IDI in its sole discretion.
The amount drawn, plus all accrued interest therein, was repayable in full on December 1, 2023.
Effective
May 13, 2023, the Company and IDI amended the LOC Agreement to increase the amount that the Company may borrow thereunder to $1,750,
extended the date by which the Company could borrow funds thereunder to December 1, 2023, and extended the maturity date to December
1, 2024. Simultaneously with the extension, the Company borrowed an additional $500.
| F-14 | |
| | |
On
November 4, 2024, the Company and IDI amended the LOC Agreement to further increase the amount that the Company may borrow thereunder
to $2,300. In addition, the Company has the right to extend the maturity for six monthly periods, in consideration for an extension fee
of $25 for each extension, which will be added to the balance due under the LOC.
During
the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, all outstanding loans, including principal and accrued interest, owed to IDI were repaid through
a combination of cash payments, issuance of approximately 100,000 shares of common stock at the price of $8 per share, and an agreement
with Jonathan Bates to exchange receivables due to Bitmine from ROC Digital (see Note 6, Investments and Notes Receivable) for a $600
reduction in the outstanding LOC balance. The extinguishment resulted in a gain of $143, which was accounted for as a capital contribution
from a related party and recognized in additional paid-in capital. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024, the amount of principal
and interest due to related party was $1,625 and $316.
**
*Hash
Rate Sale Agreement*
In

The
Company estimated the fair value of warrants using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires assumptions, including volatility,
the expected term of the warrants, the risk-free interest rate for a period that approximates the expected term of the warrants, and
expected dividend yield. Volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility of the guideline public companies over a period approximately
equal to the expected term. The contractual term of the warrants is used as the expected term since the warrant holders are nonemployees
and expected to hold the warrants to expiration to maximize the value of the warrants.

The
Company has $10,600 in U.S. Federal income tax NOL carryforwards as of August 31, 2025, that can be carried forward indefinitely and
$3,600 of U.S. Federal income tax NOL carryforwards as of August 31, 2025. In addition, the Company has $244 of Section 163(j) interest
expense limitation that can be carried forward indefinitely.
The
Company recorded a valuation allowance of $0 and $3,200 at August 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company released the valuation
allowance in 2025.
Valuation
allowances have been established where the Company has concluded that it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets are not
realizable. The Companys ability to realize its remaining deferred tax assets as of August 31, 2025, is primarily dependent upon
generating sufficient taxable income of the proper character in future years. Management has concluded that there is sufficient positive
evidence to support the expected realization of these deferred tax assets primarily due to the fact that the excess market value of the
Companys ETH over the cost basis of the Companys ETH as of August 31, 2025 is a source of future taxable income that
is expected to allow all of the Federal income tax net deferred tax assets to be realized. As part of the assessment of the amount of
the valuation allowance, the Company considered that it has the ability and intent to execute tax planning strategies if necessary, including
selling ETH with a built-in-gain.
After
consideration of all available evidence, the Company has concluded that, as of August 31, 2025, it is more likely than not that its deferred
tax assets will be realized. If the market value of ETH declines in future periods, the Company would need to assess other sources
of forecasted taxable income of proper character, which could result in additional valuation allowances being recorded.

**NOTE
13 SEGMENT REPORTING**
****
In
accordance with ASC 280-10, Segment Reporting, management has determined that the Company operates as one operating segment and one reportable
segment. This conclusion reflects the manner in which the Chief Executive Officer, who serves as the Companys Chief Operating
Decision Maker (CODM), reviews financial performance and allocates resources, particularly focusing on Operating Income
in their assessment of performance. The CODM regularly reviews consolidated financial results in their entirety rather than discrete
financial information by line of business, geography, or asset type. Accordingly, management concluded that the Companys operations
represent a single operating and reportable segment. Given that the Company has identified one operating and reportable segment, the
segment results correspond directly to the consolidated financial statements.

**NOTE
14 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**
**
*Commitments*
During
the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with Ethereum Tower LLC (ETH Tower)
to provide consulting, asset management, custody, and staking services. The Consulting Agreement has a term of ten years and may be renewed.
Under
the terms of the Consulting Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay ETH Tower a consulting fee calculated as follows:
| 
| 1.00%
per annum on digital assets managed up to $1,000,000; | |
| 
| 0.50%
per annum on digital assets managed from $1,000,000 to $5,000,000; and | |
| 
| 0.25%
per annum on digital assets managed above $5,000,000. | |
The
fee is earned daily and paid monthly, which may be settled in cash or digital assets. The aggregate fees to be incurred by the Company
are expected to be in the range of $40,000 to $50,000 annually.
The
Consulting Agreement is non-cancelable except under limited circumstances. If the Company terminates the Consulting Agreement without
cause, ETH Tower is entitled to 85% of all fees that would have accrued through the end of the term as liquidated damages.
**
*Contingencies*
From
time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. While any legal proceeding or
claim has an element of uncertainty, the Company believes the outcome of each lawsuit, claim or legal proceeding that is pending or threatened,
or all of them combined, will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of
operations. It is possible, however, that future results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any new developments
relating to the legal proceedings and claims. As of August 31, 2025, and 2024, no legal matters were considered probable and reasonably
estimable.
**NOTE
