Bitdeer Technologies Group (Nasdaq: BTDR) (“Bitdeer” or the “Company”), a world-leading technology company for blockchain and high-performance computing, today announced the pricing of its underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of US$150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.50% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the “Notes”). The sale of the Notes is expected to close on August 20, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company also granted the underwriters in the Offering a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional US$22,500,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes on the same terms and conditions, solely to cover over-allotments.

The Notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of the Company and will accrue interest at a rate of 8.50% per year, payable semiannually in arrears. The Notes will mature on August 15, 2029, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Holders may convert their notes at their option prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver to such converting holders, as the case may be, cash, Class A ordinary shares, par value US$0.0000001 per share, of the Company (the “Class A ordinary shares”) or a combination of cash and Class A ordinary shares, at its election. The initial conversion rate will be 117.0207 shares per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately US$8.55 per Class A ordinary share and represents a conversion premium of approximately 35% above the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares on August 15, 2024, which was US$6.33), subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events.

Bitdeer may redeem for cash all or any part of the Notes (subject to a partial redemption limitation as described in the indenture that will govern the Notes), at its option, on or after August 20, 2027 and prior to the 41st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, if the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares has been at least 150% of the conversion price for the Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which Bitdeer provides notice of optional redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date (an “optional redemption”).

In addition, Bitdeer may redeem for cash all but not part of the Notes at any time prior to the 41st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date if less than US$25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes remains outstanding at such time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date (a “cleanup redemption”). Bitdeer may also redeem for cash all but not part of the Notes in the event of certain tax law changes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date and any additional amounts which would otherwise be payable to such redemption date with respect to such redemption price, as described in the indenture that will govern the Notes (a “tax redemption”).

If Bitdeer undergoes a “fundamental change” (as defined in the indenture that will govern the Notes), subject to certain conditions and a limited exception, noteholders may require Bitdeer to repurchase for cash all or part of their Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date or following Bitdeer’s delivery of a notice of optional redemption, cleanup redemption or tax redemption, Bitdeer will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its Notes in connection with such a corporate event or convert its Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption in connection with such notice of optional redemption, cleanup redemption or tax redemption, as the case may be. Bitdeer will also increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its notes during the period from, and including, the date that is six months after the last date of original issuance of the notes until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 1, 2027 (other than a conversion in connection with a “make-whole fundamental change” (as defined in the indenture that will govern the Notes) or a cleanup redemption or a tax redemption).

Bitdeer estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately US$144.5 million (or approximately US$166.3 million if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full), after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by Bitdeer.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for datacenter expansion, ASIC based mining rig development as well as working capital and other general corporate purposes.

BTIG is acting as the sole book-running manager for the Offering. A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, The Benchmark Company, Needham & Company and Roth Capital Partners are acting as co-managers for the Offering.

The Offering was made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form F-3 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which was declared effective by the SEC on April 2, 2024, New York City time.
