  • Risk Factors Ownership of our securities involves a high degree of risk.
  • You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our audited financial statements and the notes thereto, and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The following discussion highlights material risks that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, prospects and the trading price of our Ordinary Shares.
  • Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations.
  • If any of the risks actually occur, our business could be materially harmed and the market price of our ordinary shares could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
  • General Risks We have a history of operating losses, and we may not be able to sustain profitability; we have recently shifted our emphasis from our digital assets mining business to the ETH staking and treasury business and we may not be continuously successful in this business.
  • Although we have experienced profitability from our cloud services and HPC data centers, which are presently operated by our subsidiary WhiteFiber, Inc., our current business, including our growth strategy for our business, involves industries that are new and constantly evolving and is subject risks, many of which are discussed below.
  • See “Risks Related to Digital Asset Prices, Network Dynamics and Treasury Holdings” below.
  • Our results of operations, including the levels of our net revenues, expenses, net loss and other key metrics, may vary significantly in the future due to a variety of factors, some of which are outside of our control, and period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not be meaningful, especially given our limited operating history in the area of digital assets.
  • We seek to acquire digital asset-related businesses around the globe.
  • We may evaluate and consider strategic investments, combinations, joint-ventures, acquisitions or alliances in the digital asset “ecosystem” and related businesses around the globe.
  • Sam Tabar, our Chief Executive Officer, Mr.
  • Erke Huang, our Chief Financial Officer and Mr.
  • Justin Zhu, our Chief Accounting Officer and Senior Vice President of Finance.
  • As of December 31, 2025, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting contained no material weaknesses.
  • Cyberattacks and security breaches of our systems, or those impacting our third parties, could adversely impact our brand and reputation and our business, operating results, and financial condition.
  • As a result, any actual or perceived security breach of our systems or our third-party partners may: ● harm our reputation and brand; ● interrupt our operations; ● result in improper disclosure of data and violations of applicable privacy and other laws; ● result in significant regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, penalties, and other legal, regulatory, and financial exposure; ● cause us to incur significant remediation costs; ● divert the attention of management from the operation of our business; and ● adversely affect our business and operating results.
  • Unauthorized parties have attempted, and we expect that they will continue to attempt, to gain access to its systems and facilities, as well as those of our customers, partners, and third-party service providers, through various means, including hacking, social engineering, phishing, and attempting to fraudulently induce individuals (including employees, service providers, and our customers) into disclosing usernames, passwords, payment card information, or other sensitive information, which may, in turn, be used to access our cloud services.
  • We have recently hired certain key personnel for the Company.
  • However, competition for these employees is high, due, in part, to the nascent workforce in the digital asset “ecosystem.” In some cases, competition for these employees is on a regional, national, or global basis.
  • As digital asset platforms become more widely available, we expect the services and products associated with them to evolve.
  • A number of factors may increase WhiteFiber’s future effective income tax rate, including: ● Governmental authorities increasing taxes or eliminating deductions, particularly the depletion deduction. ● The jurisdictions in which earnings are taxed. ● The resolution of issues arising from tax audits with various tax authorities. ● Changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. ● Adjustments to estimated taxes upon finalization of various tax returns. ● Changes in available tax credits. ● Changes in stock-based compensation. ● Other changes in tax laws. ● The interpretation of tax laws and/or administrative practices. ● Our operations could be negatively impacted by import tariffs and/or other government mandates.

  • In October 2025, we sold an aggregate of $150 million of 4.0% convertible senior notes due 2030 pursuant to a registered offering.

  • We had proceeds of $63.4 million, net of offering costs pursuant to an at-the-market offering.
  • Although we believe we have adequate cash on hand and have an effective $2.5 billion at-the-market shelf registration statement and anticipated cash flows from operating activities are expected to be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital requirements and capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business for the next 12 months, we cannot assure you that will be the case.
  • We may evaluate financing opportunities from time to time, including through ETH-collateralized financing arrangements, related-party or other investor financing, and other debt or equity financings.
  • Further, if we seek to obtain financing through ETH-collateralized financing arrangements, we may be required to pledge a substantial portion of our ETH and satisfy margin maintenance and other collateral requirements.
  • If the value of the pledged collateral declines, we could be required to post additional collateral, repay indebtedness earlier than anticipated or permit the liquidation of pledged ETH, which could adversely affect our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.
  • At December 31, 2025, substantially all of our cash and cash equivalent balances held at financial institutions exceeded deposit insured limits.
  • Risks Related to Digital Asset Prices, Network Dynamics and Treasury Holdings Volatility in the prices of ETH may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
  • Our revenues, gross margins, liquidity and ability to service obligations depend significantly on prevailing ETH prices and.
  • 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.
