HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd (HIVE)

$HIVE: Leopold Aschenbrenner.......... is this your next AI Bottleneck ????

Now at $3.33


HIVE Digital Technologies (NASDAQ: HIVE) subsidiary BUZZ High Performance Computing Inc. has signed a three-year GPU cloud contract worth approximately USD $220 million with Bell AI Fabric and Cohere Inc. The deal, announced June 18, is expected to add about $70 million in contracted annual recurring revenue to BUZZ HPC's current realized $35 million ARR, pushing total contracted HPC revenue above $100 million.

HIVE said it has procured 2,304 NVIDIA Grace Blackwell GPUs as part of GB200 NVL72 rack-scale systems, interconnected with NVIDIA Quantum InfiniBand networking and using liquid cooling. The company expects the deployment to go live in late 2026 to early 2027 at Bell's purpose-built facility in Merritt, British Columbia.

The arrangement combines three layers for Canadian government and enterprise customers. Bell Canada (NYSE: BCE) provides the data-centre facility and national connectivity platform, while Cohere will supply enterprise AI models and large language model capabilities, and Hive will operate the GPU cloud and compute layer. The infrastructure sits entirely within Canadian borders and is designed to serve customers with data-residency and governance requirements under Canada's federal AI strategy.

The Merritt deployment builds on work already underway. Bell and BUZZ HPC announced an expanded partnership at the Merritt facility in March 2026, when Bell said BUZZ had secured 6.5 MW of immediate gross capacity with an option for additional power over time. Before that, BUZZ described Bell as a preferred partner in August 2025, beginning with a 5 MW deployment in Manitoba. That Manitoba site now hosts a live 504 NVIDIA B200 GPU cluster that accounts for BUZZ's existing $35 million realized ARR.

HIVE is funding the Blackwell systems using a portion of the proceeds from its April 2026 convertible note financing, a $115 million private offering of 0% exchangeable senior notes due 2031. Hypertec, a Canadian OEM, is handling hardware procurement, system integration, installation, commissioning, and ongoing support.

"We are very pleased to announce that our contracted HPC revenue target has surpassed $100m," HIVE CEO Aydin Kilic said. "We expect this NVIDIA GB200 deployment to go live in late 2026 to early 2027, adding approximately contracted $70m ARR to our current realized $35m ARR."

HIVE Announces Closing of Private Offering of $130 Million of 0% Exchangeable Senior Notes Due 2031June 30, 2026 5:00 PM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement, dated June 16, 2026, to its short form base shelf prospectus, dated October 31, 2025San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 30, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSX: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE") today announced that HIVE Bermuda 2026 Ltd., its wholly-owned subsidiary (the "Issuer") has closed its private offering (the "Offering") of US$130 million aggregate principal amount of 0% exchangeable senior notes due 2031 (the "Notes") to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Offering included the exercise in full of the initial purchasers' option to purchase an additional US$15 million aggregate principal amount of Notes (the "Option").Aydin Kilic, President & CEO of HIVE commented, "We are thrilled to complete this upsized 0% coupon exchangeable senior note offering for US$130 million. Together with the offering of exchangeable notes closed on April 21, 2026, we have raised US$245 million from the sale of 0% coupon notes this quarter. In addition, the capped call transactions completed in connection with the Offering, carrying an initial cap price of US$8.5275, will minimize dilution. We are excited to deploy the proceeds to accelerate the growth of our AI and HPC business."The Notes will mature on July 1, 2031, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or exchanged. Prior to April 1, 2031, the Notes will be exchangeable only upon satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and thereafter, the Notes will be exchangeable at the option of holders at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The Issuer may settle exchanges of the Notes in cash, common shares ("Common Shares") of HIVE or a combination of cash and Common Shares, at its election. The initial exchange rate for the Notes is 206.9429 Common Shares per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes, equivalent to an initial exchange price of approximately US$4.83 per Common Share (approximately 27.5% premium to the last reported sale price of US$3.79 per Common Share on the Nasdaq on June 25, 2026). The Issuer will have the right to redeem the Notes in certain circumstances and will be required to offer to repurchase the Notes upon the occurrence of certain events.The Issuer estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately US$124.5 million in net proceeds to HIVE, after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses, but before deducting the cost of the capped call transactions. The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, or to make a capital contribution to any such subsidiary or subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (including, but not limited to, the purchase of graphics processing units) and data center development. HIVE intends to fund approximately US$15.7 million for capped call transactions (as described below) using cash on hand, and the Issuer may use a portion of the net proceeds to reimburse HIVE for the cost of the capped call transactions.In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated cash-settled capped call transactions with certain financial institutions. The cap price of the capped call transactions is initially US$8.5275 per Common Share, which represents a premium of 125.0% to the last reported sale price of US$3.79 per Common Share on the Nasdaq on June 25, 2026, and will be subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.The Company is relying on the exemption under Section 602.1 of the TSX's Company Manual (the "TSX Manual") available to Eligible Interlisted Issuers (as defined in the TSX Manual) in respect of the Offering.None of the Notes, the guarantee or the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of the Notes, if any, have been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction.About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. was among the first publicly listed companies to prioritize mining digital assets powered by green energy.

RETRANSMISSION: HIVE Announces Upsizing and Pricing of Private Offering of US$115 Million of 0% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2031June 26, 2026 6:00 AM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated June 16, 2026 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 26, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSX: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE") today announced the pricing of US$115 million aggregate principal amount of 0% exchangeable senior notes due 2031 (the "Notes") in a private offering (the "Offering") by HIVE Bermuda 2026 Ltd., its wholly-owned subsidiary (the "Issuer"), to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be issued in the Offering was increased to US$115 million from the previously announced US$100 million. The Issuer also granted the initial purchasers of the Notes an option, exercisable within a period of 13 days from and including the date the Notes are first issued, to purchase up to an additional US$15 million aggregate principal amount of Notes (the "Option"). The sale of the Notes is expected to close on June 30, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.The Notes will be general unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Issuer's obligations under the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by HIVE. The Notes will not bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the Notes will not accrete. The Notes will mature on July 1, 2031, unless earlier exchanged, redeemed or repurchased. Prior to April 1, 2031, the Notes will be exchangeable only upon satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and thereafter, at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The Issuer will settle exchanges by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, common shares of HIVE ("Common Shares") or a combination of cash and Common Shares, at the Issuer's election. The initial exchange rate will be 206.9429 Common Shares per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial exchange price of approximately US$4.83 per Common Share, which represents a premium of approximately 27.5% above the closing sale price per Common Share on the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq") on June 25, 2026), subject to adjustment in some events. The Issuer may only redeem the Notes prior to July 5, 2029 at its option, in whole but not in part, upon the occurrence of certain tax-related events. The Issuer also may redeem the Notes at its option on or after July 5, 2029 in whole or in part if the last reported sale price of the Common Shares has been at least 130% of the exchange price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Issuer provides notice of 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. Holders of the Notes may require the Issuer to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes on July 1, 2030, at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased. If HIVE undergoes a "fundamental change," subject to certain conditions and limited exceptions, holders of the Notes may require the Issuer to repurchase for cash all or any portion 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 of the Notes or upon the Issuer's issuance of a notice of redemption, the Issuer will, in certain circumstances, increase the exchange rate for holders of the Notes who elect to exchange their Notes in connection with such a corporate event or exchange their Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption during the related redemption period, as the case may be.The Issuer estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately US$110.0 million (or approximately US$124.5 million if the initial purchasers exercise the Option in full), after deducting the initial purchasers' estimated discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Issuer. The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, or to make a capital contribution to any such subsidiary or subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (including, but not limited to, the purchase of graphics processing units) and data center development. HIVE intends to fund capped call transactions (as described below) using cash on hand, and the Issuer may use a portion of the net proceeds to reimburse HIVE for the cost of the capped call transactions. If the initial purchasers exercise the Option, the Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the additional Notes to fund one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (as described above) and data center development, and the Issuer may use a portion of the net proceeds to reimburse HIVE for the cost of entering into additional capped call transactions, as described below.In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated cash-settled capped call transactions with certain financial institutions (collectively, the "option counterparties"). The cap price of the capped call transactions is initially US$8.5275 per Common Share, which represents a premium of 125.0% to the last reported sale price of US$3.79 per Common Share on the Nasdaq on June 25, 2026. The capped call transactions will be subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Notes. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce potential economic dilution of the Common Shares upon exchange of any Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Issuer could be required to make in excess of the principal amount of exchanged Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. If the initial purchasers exercise the Option, the Company expects to enter into additional capped call transactions with the option counterparties.In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the Company expects the option counterparties or their respective affiliates to purchase Common Shares and/or enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the Common Shares concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Notes, and such option counterparties or their respective affiliates may unwind these various derivative transactions and/or sell Common Shares in open market transactions. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Common Shares or the Notes at that time. In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to the Common Shares and/or purchasing or selling Common Shares or other securities of the Company in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Notes and prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period related to an exchange of the Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or decrease in the market price of the Common Shares or the Notes, which could affect holders of the Notes' ability to exchange the Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to an exchange of the Notes, it could affect the amount and value of the consideration that holders of the Notes will receive upon exchange of such Notes.The Company is relying on the exemption under Section 602.1 of the TSX's Company Manual (the "TSX Manual") available to Eligible Interlisted Issuers (as defined in the TSX Manual) in respect of the Offering.None of the Notes, the guarantee or the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of the Notes, if any, have been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction.About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. was among the first publicly listed companies to prioritize mining digital assets powered by green energy.

The initial exchange rate and other terms of the Notes will be determined at the time of pricing of the Offering. The Notes will not bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the Notes will not accrete.The Notes will be general unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Issuer's obligations under the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by HIVE.The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, or to make a capital contribution to any such subsidiary or subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (including, but not limited to, the purchase of graphics processing units) and data center development. HIVE intends to fund capped call transactions (as described below) using cash on hand, and the Issuer may use a portion of the net proceeds to reimburse HIVE for the cost of the capped call transactions. If the initial purchasers exercise the Option, the Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the additional Notes to fund one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, or to make a capital contribution to any such subsidiary or subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (as described above) and data center development, and the Issuer may use a portion of the net proceeds to reimburse HIVE for the cost of entering into additional capped call transactions, as described below.In connection with the Offering, the Company expects to enter into privately negotiated cash-settled capped call transactions with one or more financial institutions (collectively, the "option counterparties"). The capped call transactions will cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Notes, the number of Common Shares that will initially underlie the Notes, assuming the initial purchasers do not exercise the Option. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce potential economic dilution of the Common Shares upon exchange of any Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Issuer could be required to make in excess of the principal amount of exchanged Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. If the initial purchasers exercise the Option, the Company expects to enter into additional capped call transactions with the option counterparties.In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the Company expects the option counterparties or their respective affiliates to purchase Common Shares and/or enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the Common Shares concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Notes, and such option counterparties or their respective affiliates may unwind these various derivative transactions and/or sell Common Shares in open market transactions. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Common Shares or the Notes at that time. In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to the Common Shares and/or purchasing or selling Common Shares or other securities of the Company in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Notes and prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period related to an exchange of the Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or decrease in the market price of the Common Shares or the Notes, which could affect holders of the Notes' ability to exchange the Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to an exchange of the Notes, it could affect the amount and value of the consideration that holders of the Notes will receive upon exchange of such Notes.The Company is relying on the exemption under Section 602.1 of the TSX's Company Manual (the "TSX Manual") available to Eligible Interlisted Issuers (as defined in the TSX Manual) in respect of the Offering.None of the Notes, the guarantee or the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of the Notes, if any, have been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction.About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. was among the first publicly listed companies to prioritize mining digital assets powered by green energy.

HIVE Signs Long-Term HPC Colocation LOI with Investment-Grade Swedish Client at Boden, Retrofit to Support Up to 10,000 GB300 GPUsJune 25, 2026 7:00 AM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated June 16, 2026 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 25, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSX: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), today announces it has signed a letter of intent ("LOI") with an investment-grade, sovereign Swedish technology company (the "Client") for an up to 10 year lease of the Company's 32 megawatt ("MW") Boden, Sweden facility. The LOI is non-binding and subject to the negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement. As previously announced on June 18, 2026, the Boden Municipal Council has approved the Company's acquisition of the Boden facility from Bodens Utvecklings AB. HIVE has operated at the Boden facility since 2018, including the operation of approximately 130,000 GPUs in the region. Building on that operational foundation, the LOI contemplates a term of up to 10 years for a usable critical IT load of approximately 25 MW.Pursuant to the LOI, the Company expects to retrofit the facility to support up to 10,000 GB300 GPUs, with single rack densities up to 150 kW, using hybrid direct-to-chip ("DTC") liquid cooling and air cooling. The gross utility load of the site at 32 MW correlates to a critical IT load of approximately 25 MW, which this LOI contemplates for HPC colocation.HIVE has been deeply embedded in the Boden community for almost a decade, investing in the region, supporting local initiatives, and building partnerships with local stakeholders throughout its operations at the facility. Following rigorous site visits and technical diligence, the Client selected HIVE's Boden facility as its long-term HPC colocation home in Sweden.Leadership CommentaryFrank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE, stated:"The nations that control the compute will shape the next century. This LOI is a reflection of what patient, long-term infrastructure thinking produces. We built in Sweden when others were not looking at the Nordics, and an investment-grade, sovereign Swedish technology client committing to up to 10 years at this facility is the proof of what that patience delivers. The power is clean, the infrastructure is proven, and the trust has been earned. At HIVE, we turn clean electrons into compute. That is the business. As we expand our global footprint from Canada to Paraguay to Sweden, each milestone reflects the same conviction: sovereign AI infrastructure is one of the most important buildouts of our generation, and HIVE is building it."Aydin Kilic, President & CEO of HIVE, added:"We see this legacy site in Boden as a strategic long-term asset for the Company. This site has evolved from a GPU compute facility supporting Ethereum and now comes full circle as a high-power-density, liquid-cooled GPU facility based on GB300 NVL72 architecture. We anticipate this to contribute significant annual recurring revenue, and we look forward to securing a long-term colocation offtake lease with the Client for this facility, which we believe could create long-term stable cashflows for HIVE as we make significant investments to upgrade it."Johanna Thörnblad, Country Site President, Sweden, stated:"The signing of this agreement is both a commercial milestone and a powerful symbol of the future we are building in Boden. This project reinforces our commitment to supporting digital sovereignty while building world-class infrastructure that serves the long-term needs of Sweden."About HIVEFounded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. was among the first publicly listed companies to prioritize mining digital assets powered by green energy.

RETRANSMISSION: HIVE's Paraguay AI Infrastructure Performance Validated in Columbia University Study, Research Heads to NeurIPSJune 22, 2026 6:00 AM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated June 16, 2026 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 22, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSX: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), today announces the successful completion of its inaugural research project using HIVE GPUs for AI research purposes in Asunción, Paraguay, in collaboration with the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research at Columbia University in New York. This research has been submitted to The Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems ("NeurIPS"), one of the leading machine learning and computational neuroscience conference held annually in December. Along with ICLR and ICML, it is one of the three primary conferences of high impact in machine learning and artificial intelligence research globally. This establishes a proof of concept for intercontinental AI training, where researchers in New York City successfully ran iterative training runs on GPUs located in Asunción, Paraguay. With this data, HIVE now has a reference point for the performance of AI workloads using GPUs in Asunción. Using code optimizations developed by the Columbia team, the research found that HIVE's A40 GPUs matched the performance of newer-generation H100 GPUs.A researcher from the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research at Columbia University said: "We study neural network pretraining using optimization theory over general geometry and under large noise. We design and analyze an accelerated algorithm that matches the performance of the current leading method, Muon, in both theory and practice.As shown in the paper, our work on these nodes focuses on the performance of pretraining algorithms. Over the past two months, we optimized our code for the A40s and tested the throughput and latency of Muon and our variants. In our use case of pretraining LLMs of up to 1.4B parameters, our results match those of H100s after normalizing for each hardware's raw performance.Additionally, we tested the serving throughput and latency of our 1.4B model, which has not yet been heavily optimized, and included standard throughput and latency tests for LLaMA models as well."Using the measured token-per-second, latency, and bandwidth data as a baseline, HIVE has established a foundation for an HPC/AI Gigafactory in Yguazú, Paraguay, where the Company has a 100 megawatt ("MW") substation under construction. Civil works are complete, with commissioning expected this summer. The substation is expected to be energized in September 2026, with construction on a new Tier-III data center beginning Fall 2026 and a ready-for-service date in H2 2027.Leadership CommentaryFrank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE, stated:"This proof-of-concept is an important step in HIVE's mission to help bring advanced AI computing infrastructure to Paraguay. Seeing professors from Columbia University in New York City remotely utilize our AI-optimized GPU cluster in Asunción, more than 5,000 miles away, demonstrates the power of distributed AI infrastructure. It shows that high-performance computing does not need to be limited by geography. Our vision is to bring the right power, data center design, software stack, and execution, so through HIVE, Paraguay can participate directly in the global AI economy. This milestone further validates the commercial potential of HIVE's AI platform and our ability to deliver compute across borders. This is also an important moment for Paraguay. Paraguay has the power, the strategic location, and now the proof point. HIVE is proud to help bring that future online."Aydin Kilic, President and CEO of HIVE, added:"At HIVE, innovation is in our DNA. That is why this work with the AI researchers at Columbia University has been so exciting. Their research is focused on next-generation neural network pretraining. In simple terms, they are working on making AI training smarter, faster, and more efficient by improving the mathematical engine behind how neural networks learn.Over the past two months, the Columbia team optimized their code for HIVE's A40 GPU nodes in Asunción across advanced AI workloads. In their specific use case, after normalizing for each hardware platform's raw performance, the results on HIVE's A40 nodes matched those observed on H100 systems. That is a powerful result.For HIVE, this validates a core belief: great engineering can unlock significant value. Our history includes building the BuzzMiner in collaboration with Intel Corporation and also becoming one of the largest demand-response participants in Sweden, helping balance the national electrical grid. We will continue to invest in communities, while bringing the advancements and innovations in our tech stack to our data centers globally. We see a bright future for AI in Paraguay."An Assistant Professor in the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research ("IEOR") at Columbia University added:"We are grateful for the support that made this research possible. This work advances our understanding of modern neural network optimization, including matrix-aware optimizers such as Muon and related scale-invariant methods. By clarifying their theoretical foundations and evaluating them in practical neural network training settings, this research highlights their potential relevance for future LLM pretraining. We look forward to sharing these findings with the broader research community."About HIVEFounded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. was among the first publicly listed companies to prioritize mining digital assets powered by green energy.

Once operational, the new NVIDIA GB200 deployment is expected to contribute approximately $70 million in annual recurring revenue, building on the company’s existing annual recurring revenue base of around $35 million. Financing Supports AI Expansion HIVE noted that the purchase of the NVIDIA Grace Blackwell systems is being funded through proceeds from its $115 million convertible note financing completed in April 2026. The investment represents another step in the company’s strategy to diversify beyond cryptocurrency mining and establish itself as a provider of large-scale AI and cloud computing infrastructure. Company Expands Ownership in Sweden Separately, HIVE announced that the municipal council of Boden, Sweden, has approved the company’s acquisition of the Big Boden 32 MW data center from Bodens Utvecklings AB. The company has operated from the site since 2018 and will transition from tenant to owner once the transaction is completed. The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions. Long-Term Commitment to the Boden Region HIVE highlighted its longstanding presence in the region, noting that it has invested more than 960 million Swedish kronor, equivalent to approximately $100 million, in Boden over the past eight years. During that period, the company also contributed more than 575 million kronor, or over $60 million, in taxes. Ownership of the facility is expected to provide greater operational flexibility and support future expansion plans. AI Strategy Gains Momentum The combination of a substantial long-term cloud computing contract and the acquisition of critical infrastructure underscores HIVE’s growing focus on artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. With contracted HPC revenue targets now exceeding $100 million and significant new GPU capacity set to come online over the next two years, investors appear increasingly focused on the company’s transition toward recurring AI infrastructure revenues and away from its traditional dependence on cryptocurrency-related operations.

The compute infrastructure will remain entirely within Canadian borders and operate under Canadian standards.Executive Commentary"Canada helped pioneer modern artificial intelligence. What we have lacked is not talent, it is industrial infrastructure to commercialize that talent at scale before others do it for us. This partnership with Bell and Cohere is a defining moment. BUZZ HPC is the GPU factory layer that transforms Canada's AI ambitions from political promises into productive national assets. Sophisticated investors understand that the companies building sovereign AI infrastructure today are positioning for a decade of asymmetric returns. HIVE is one of the very few companies in the world operating at the intersection of Tier-I data centers, AI compute, and sovereign infrastructure and this deal validates that thesis at the highest level of Canadian enterprise."- Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman, HIVE Digital Technologies"We are very pleased to announce that our contracted HPC revenue target has surpassed $100m. We expect this NVIDIA GB200 deployment to go live in late 2026 to early 2027, adding approximately contracted $70m ARR to our current realized $35m ARR. A technological revolution requires new infrastructure. The industrial revolution required factories. The internet required fibre networks and hyperscale data centres. Artificial intelligence requires AI Factories, Tier III data centers with AI optimized GPU compute clusters, that is what we are building. This deployment brings together Canadian connectivity and compute, in Canadian data centres, running Canadian AI foundational models. The result is a unified platform capable of supporting some of the most demanding AI workloads in the world. Our objective is simple: convert clean energy into intelligence at scale and make Canada one of the most important sovereign AI jurisdictions on Earth. This partnership demonstrates that Canada is ready to lead."- Aydin Kilic, President & CEO, HIVE Digital Technologies"AI starts with great models and software, but it becomes transformative when powered by the right infrastructure. At BUZZ, we see AI as energy transformed into intelligence delivered at scale through a sovereign Canadian platform with Bell and Cohere. For years, Canada led the world in AI research while importing much of the infrastructure required to scale it. That changes now.This partnership brings together a combination of capabilities that do not exist anywhere else in Canada today: Bell's national platform, Cohere's world-class enterprise AI solutions, Hypertec's Canadian-built GPU servers, and BUZZ's AI factory and sovereign AI cloud powered by NVIDIA's full-stack AI infrastructure. What we have built together is more than a technology partnership. We have built an AI manufacturing platform for Canada. These AI Factories convert renewable energy into one of the most valuable products in the world: intelligence.The significance of this goes beyond a single contract. Every industry will be rebuilt around AI over the next decade. The countries that own the infrastructure will capture the economic value. The countries that don't will rent it. We chose to build. This deployment creates sovereign Canadian compute at industrial scale, capable of running, fine-tuning, and serving advanced AI systems entirely within Canadian borders. The future isn't something that happens to us. The future is something we build. Today, Canada takes a major step toward building its own."- Craig Tavares, President & COO, BUZZ HPCAbout HIVEFounded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. was among the first publicly listed companies to prioritize mining digital assets powered by green energy.

RETRANSMISSION: HIVE Digital Technologies to Acquire 32 MW Data Center in Boden, Deepening an Eight-Year Community Partnership in Northern SwedenJune 18, 2026 6:00 AM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated June 16, 2026 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 18, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSX: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure and AI compute, today announced that the Boden Municipal Council has approved the Company's acquisition of the Big Boden 32 MW data center from Bodens Utvecklings AB, the facility that has anchored HIVE's Swedish operations since 2018.With this approval, HIVE transitions from tenant to owner, securing full authority over the site's future and converting nearly a decade of community partnership into permanent commitment.Built in Boden: Eight Years of Local InvestmentOver eight years, HIVE has invested more than 960 million SEK (approximately $100 million USD) in the Boden region through local contractors and renewable energy procurement, and has paid more than 575 million SEK (over $60 million USD) in taxes to the Swedish Tax Authority.HIVE is a long-standing sponsor of the Boden Hockey League, supporting 12 youth teams and the club's newly established women's teams, and is the naming partner of HIVE Arena. The Company continues to work alongside Boden Municipality and Research Institute of Sweden ("RISE") to explore recovering heat generated by the data center for broader community use, a model that transforms energy infrastructure into a civic asset."We chose Boden in 2018 because the municipality understood, before most did, what sustainable digital infrastructure could look like," said Johanna Thörnblad, Country Site President, Sweden. "This acquisition is HIVE's clearest signal yet that Sweden is part of our long-term global strategy to build sovereign AI compute.""This is an investment in Boden's future," said Béatrice Öman, Mayor of Boden Municipality. "HIVE has already shown that they want to be a long-term player here, and through this deal, the company is creating conditions for continued development in the municipality. It strengthens both our business community and Boden's position as a place for technologically advanced establishments."From the Jungles of South America to the Edge of the Arctic Circle: Infrastructure That Gives BackFor HIVE, community partnership is not layered on top of operations. It is built into how the Company enters every market, with the intention to build infrastructure that serves the region, not just the balance sheet.In Paraguay, HIVE has invested directly in the communities surrounding its data center campuses. That work includes electrical system upgrades, improved power infrastructure, and air conditioning installations across 18 schools in Valenzuela. The Company has also built playgrounds at four local schools, improved city blocks with LED street lighting, upgraded the municipal soccer field with a new locker room, and sponsored the community's youth soccer program with new jerseys and equipment. In Canada, HIVE participates in heat reuse initiatives that redirect thermal energy from its data centers back into local use, and supports the British Columbia Honey Producers Association, advancing environmental stewardship alongside its renewable-powered operations.From South America to Northern Europe to Canada, the commitment is the same: enter a community as a long-term partner and help accelerate human progress."Sweden, Paraguay, Canada: the thread connecting all of our operations is the same," said Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE. "The communities that host our infrastructure are partners in what we are building. Boden has been an exceptional partner for nearly eight years, and this acquisition is our commitment to continue earning that relationship. Clean power, local investment, and long-term presence: that is how technology can genuinely advance human progress."Advancing Tier III Infrastructure Across a Global Renewable FootprintUpon closing, HIVE will advance the Big Boden data center toward Tier III infrastructure standards, the benchmark for the security, redundancy, and uptime required to support enterprise-scale AI and HPC workloads, including support for NVIDIA's latest GPU architectures for AI training and inference. The Boden site joins HIVE's broader buildout spanning Canada, Sweden, and Paraguay, where the Company is developing sovereign, renewable-powered AI infrastructure at a moment when the world's demand for trusted compute has never been greater.The acquisition remains subject to completion of customary closing conditions. Further details will be provided as the transaction progresses.About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. is the first publicly listed company to mine digital assets powered by green energy.

HIVE Digital Technologies to Acquire 32 MW Data Center in Boden, Deepening an Eight-Year Community Partnership in Northern SwedenJune 18, 2026 1:00 AM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated June 16, 2026 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 18, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSX: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure and AI compute, today announced that the Boden Municipal Council has approved the Company's acquisition of the Big Boden 32 MW data center from Bodens Utvecklings AB, the facility that has anchored HIVE's Swedish operations since 2018.With this approval, HIVE transitions from tenant to owner, securing full authority over the site's future and converting nearly a decade of community partnership into permanent commitment.Built in Boden: Eight Years of Local InvestmentOver eight years, HIVE has invested more than 960 million SEK (approximately $100 million USD) in the Boden region through local contractors and renewable energy procurement, and has paid more than 575 million SEK (over $60 million USD) in taxes to the Swedish Tax Authority.HIVE is a long-standing sponsor of the Boden Hockey League, supporting 12 youth teams and the club's newly established women's teams, and is the naming partner of HIVE Arena. The Company continues to work alongside Boden Municipality and Research Institute of Sweden ("RISE") to explore recovering heat generated by the data center for broader community use, a model that transforms energy infrastructure into a civic asset."We chose Boden in 2018 because the municipality understood, before most did, what sustainable digital infrastructure could look like," said Johanna Thörnblad, Country Site President, Sweden. "This acquisition is HIVE's clearest signal yet that Sweden is part of our long-term global strategy to build sovereign AI compute.""This is an investment in Boden's future," said Béatrice Öman, Mayor of Boden Municipality. "HIVE has already shown that they want to be a long-term player here, and through this deal, the company is creating conditions for continued development in the municipality. It strengthens both our business community and Boden's position as a place for technologically advanced establishments."From the Jungles of South America to the Edge of the Arctic Circle: Infrastructure That Gives BackFor HIVE, community partnership is not layered on top of operations. It is built into how the Company enters every market, with the intention to build infrastructure that serves the region, not just the balance sheet.In Paraguay, HIVE has invested directly in the communities surrounding its data center campuses. That work includes electrical system upgrades, improved power infrastructure, and air conditioning installations across 18 schools in Valenzuela. The Company has also built playgrounds at four local schools, improved city blocks with LED street lighting, upgraded the municipal soccer field with a new locker room, and sponsored the community's youth soccer program with new jerseys and equipment. In Canada, HIVE participates in heat reuse initiatives that redirect thermal energy from its data centers back into local use, and supports the British Columbia Honey Producers Association, advancing environmental stewardship alongside its renewable-powered operations.From South America to Northern Europe to Canada, the commitment is the same: enter a community as a long-term partner and help accelerate human progress."Sweden, Paraguay, Canada: the thread connecting all of our operations is the same," said Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE. "The communities that host our infrastructure are partners in what we are building. Boden has been an exceptional partner for nearly eight years, and this acquisition is our commitment to continue earning that relationship. Clean power, local investment, and long-term presence: that is how technology can genuinely advance human progress."Advancing Tier III Infrastructure Across a Global Renewable FootprintUpon closing, HIVE will advance the Big Boden data center toward Tier III infrastructure standards, the benchmark for the security, redundancy, and uptime required to support enterprise-scale AI and HPC workloads, including support for NVIDIA's latest GPU architectures for AI training and inference. The Boden site joins HIVE's broader buildout spanning Canada, Sweden, and Paraguay, where the Company is developing sovereign, renewable-powered AI infrastructure at a moment when the world's demand for trusted compute has never been greater.The acquisition remains subject to completion of customary closing conditions. Further details will be provided as the transaction progresses.About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. is the first publicly listed company to mine digital assets powered by green energy.

RETRANSMISSION: HIVE Achieves FY2026 Total Revenue of $297.8 Million (+158% YoY), HIVE's BUZZ HPC Positioned for GrowthJune 2, 2026 6:00 AM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated November 25, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 2, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSX: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (referred to as the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable data center infrastructure, announces its results for the full year ended March 31, 2026 (all amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated).FY2026 Financial Highlights:Total Revenue: $297.8 million, from digital currency mining ($278.3 million) and high-performance computing (HPC) hosting services ($19.5 million).Digital Currency Revenue: $278.3 million, up 164% year-over-year driven by an approximately four-fold increase in installed operational hashrate and higher average Bitcoin prices (FY2026 average of $98,040 vs. $75,881 in FY2025).Bitcoin Production: 2,885 Bitcoin mined during the fiscal year, up 104% from 1,414 Bitcoin in FY2025, materially outpacing the approximately 42% increase in average network difficulty (from 95.7T in FY2025 to 135.8T in FY2026). As of March 31, 2026, HIVE's total installed hashrate was 25.1 EH/s, or approximately 24.5 EH/s after accounting for controlled downclocking for fleet optimization.HPC Revenue: HIVE's BUZZ HPC business generated a record $19.5 million, up 94% from $10.0 million in FY2025, driven by the deployment of the NVIDIA H200 GPU cluster and strong demand on GPU marketplace.Gross Operating Margins: $107.9 million (36% margin), versus $25.1 million (22% margin) in FY2025 - a 14 percentage-point expansion reflecting operating leverage on the 300 MW Paraguay expansion and HPC gross margin expansion to approximately 40%.G&A: $31.4 million, up from $16.6 million in FY2025 primarily as a result of increased staff to support HIVE's global expansion in digital currency mining, particularly in Paraguay, and the growth of its BUZZ HPC business.GAAP Net Loss: $148.4 million, of which approximately $221.3 million is non-cash, comprising $170.4 million of depreciation and $50.9 million of net non-cash adjustments (primarily share-based compensation, change in fair value of BTC equipment-deposit derivatives, and unrealized loss on investments, partially offset by net realized and unrealized gains on digital currencies and sales-tax recovery).Adjusted EBITDA1: $72.9 million or 24% of total revenue.Digital Assets: $10.8 million in total digital currency holdings on March 31, 2026, including 150 Bitcoin. Q4 FY2026 Financial Highlights:Total Revenue: $71.8 million, from digital currency mining and high-performance computing (HPC) hosting services. Bitcoin Mining Revenue: $67.2 million, down 23.9% sequentially from fiscal Q3 2026 driven by an approximately 27% decline in average Bitcoin price (Q4 average of $76,476 vs. approximately $98,000 in Q32) and an approximately 27% year-over-year increase in average network difficulty (140.7T vs. 111.2T), partially offset by higher average operational hashrate following the completion of Paraguay Phase 3 in November 2025.Bitcoin Production: 876 Bitcoin mined in Q4 2026, broadly in line with the prior quarter as record operational hashrate from the completion of Paraguay Phase 3 offset continued increases in global network difficulty.HPC Revenue: $4.6 million, marginally below Q3 FY2026 as the deployment of HIVE's 504 NVIDIA B200 GPU cluster at Bell Canada's AI Fabric facility shifted from March to May 2026, but up 54% year-over-year from $3.0 million in Q4 FY2025, driven by a full quarter of revenue contribution from the previously deployed NVIDIA H200 GPU cluster, an approximate doubling of GPU marketplace revenue, and additional revenue from new bare-metal customer contracts.Gross Operating Margins: $17.5 million in gross operating margin or 24%.G&A: $9.4 million, up slightly from $8.4 million in Q3 FY2026 reflecting continued investment in personnel to support Paraguay operations and HIVE's BUZZ HPC growth.GAAP Net Loss: $83.3 million, of which approximately $74.7 million is non-cash, comprising $52.7 million of depreciation and $30.6 million of non-cash adjustments.Adjusted EBITDA1: ($9.0) million, reflecting Q4 hashprice compression as Bitcoin declined sharply from its October all-time high through quarter-end and global network difficulty climbed to record levels, together with non-cash foreign-exchange translation losses on multi-jurisdictional balances.Management InsightsFrank Holmes, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman: "Fiscal 2026 marked a defining year for HIVE. As one of the first publicly traded Bitcoin miners to invest in GPU cloud computing and AI infrastructure, we began building a diversified dual-engine growth strategy years ago. In fiscal 2026, we significantly expanded both sides of our platform, increasing our Bitcoin mining hashrate from 6.5 EH/s to 25.1 EH/s and growing contracted HPC ARR to $35 million. This growth translated into strong financial results, with revenue increasing 158% to $297.8 million, gross operating margin increasing 329% to $107.9 million and adjusted EBITDA reaching $72.9 million. Our Paraguay expansion transformed HIVE into one of the world's largest operators of green-energy-powered Bitcoin mining infrastructure, while our BUZZ HPC grew contracted ARR3 to $35 million and established HIVE as an emerging leader in Canadian AI infrastructure. With a clear pathway to $660 million of ARR by year-end 2028, anchored by our planned 320 MW AI Gigafactory in the Greater Toronto Area ("GTA"), the largest planned Canadian AI infrastructure project under private ownership, we believe we are well positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for AI infrastructure.Looking ahead, HIVE sits at the intersection of two powerful technology trends: Bitcoin and AI. Our mandate remains unchanged: disciplined, high-ROIC growth powered by 100% green energy. We believe the investments we have made over the past several years position HIVE for one of the most significant growth periods in our history. I would like to thank our shareholders, our employees, and our partners for their continued trust."Aydin Kilic, President & CEO: "We are data-center builders and operators with a strong pedigree in orchestrating compute, whether GPU- or ASIC-based. Our network, firmware and high-voltage engineering skill sets cover the core competencies required to excel in this rapidly evolving sector. Our global controls and processes are often best-in-class, evidenced by BUZZ Cloud's fastest download speeds4 and HIVE's BTC-per-EH/s production, top ranked amongst other miners5.In 2025, we built 300 MW of hydro-powered Tier-I data center capacity in Paraguay. This capacity was brought online within six months and included the construction and commissioning of two large substations.This year, we have announced a 320 MW site in the GTA, which will be home to Canada's largest AI data center under private ownership and, with capacity for 100,000 NVIDIA GPUs, will be a true Gigafactory. Along with our 70 MW Grand Falls, New Brunswick site and 7 MW Toronto Airport site, we have approximately 400 MW of HPC Tier-III data center capacity in Canada that we look to energize over the next 18 months.We successfully executed one of the largest expansion programs in HIVE's history while continuing to scale our AI infrastructure platform. Our first liquid-cooled NVIDIA B200 GPU cluster with Bell Canada AI Fabric is now live and contributing approximately $15 million of incremental ARR, increasing our contracted HPC ARR from approximately $20 million to $35 million. This deployment validates both the strength of demand for AI infrastructure and our ability to deliver enterprise-grade compute solutions for leading customers.The pace of execution across both businesses has been extraordinary. We are also doubling the size of our GPU cloud this year, from approximately 5,500 NVIDIA GPUs to approximately 11,000 GPUs under management by the end of calendar 2026, which is expected to generate over $200 million of AI Cloud ARR."Darcy Daubaras, CFO: "The financial results from fiscal 2026 highlight the operating leverage embedded in HIVE's business model. Revenue increased 158% year-over-year to $297.8 million, gross operating margin expanded to 36.2%, and cash from operations increased 3.5-fold to $62.3 million. Our annual return on invested capital of 13.3% reflects the discipline with which we deploy capital and compares favorably with our publicly listed peers. The GAAP net loss of $148.4 million was largely attributable to non-cash items, including depreciation and other accounting adjustments. After year-end, we closed $115 million of 0% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2031, generating net proceeds of approximately $109.5 million. In connection with the financing, we also entered into capped-call transactions designed to mitigate potential dilution up to a 125% premium to our April reference price. We exit the year with a fully funded Paraguay buildout, a growing HPC pipeline, and the balance-sheet flexibility to pursue the highest-return opportunities across our Bitcoin mining and AI infrastructure platforms."FY2026 and Recent Operational and Financial Highlights:Bitcoin Mining OperationsInstalled Bitcoin Mining Hashrate of 25.1 EH/s on March 31, 2026 (25.3 EH/s today) at fleet efficiency of approximately 16.5 J/TH, up from 6.5 EH/s on March 31, 2025, a roughly four-fold increase.Operational Global Power Capacity of 440 MW across Canada, Sweden, and Paraguay, all powered by green energy.300 MW Paraguay Expansion delivered across three phases: Yguazú Phase 1 (June 2025), Yguazú Phase 2 (early September 2025), and Valenzuela Phase 3 (November 10, 2025, two weeks ahead of schedule).HPC and AI CloudHPC ARR of $35 million contracted at fiscal year-end, with $660 million targeted by year-end 2028 anchored by the 320 MW GTA Gigafactory project.Bell B200 Cluster Operational: HIVE's first 504 NVIDIA B200 GPU cluster, deployed at Bell Canada AI Fabric's Tier-III data center in Manitoba, went live in May 2026 at signed contract pricing of $2.90 per GPU-hour, 32% above the planning rate of $2.20 per GPU-hour. The deployment lifts HIVE's BUZZ HPC ARR from approximately $20 million to approximately $35 million.320 MW GTA Gigafactory Project: On May 18, 2026, HIVE's BUZZ HPC announced the development of a 320 MW industrial-scale AI gigafactory in the Greater Toronto Area, designed to host more than 100,000 GPUs at full build-out and to become one of Canada's largest AI gigafactories. The Company acquired a contiguous 25-acre site for total land consideration of CAD $58 million (a 21-acre Main Parcel for CAD $46 million and an adjacent 4-acre Additional Parcel for CAD $12 million) in the Toronto-Waterloo innovation corridor.

Refer to reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure included at the end of this news release.2 Source: CoinMarketCap, average daily closing price for the three months ended December 31, 2025.3 ARR refers to the Company's run rate revenue calculated on an annualized basis. As context dictates, the Company calculates ARR by: (i) multiplying the revenue realized per week times 52 weeks per year, (ii) multiplying the realized revenue per day times 365 days per year, or (iii) multiplying the per quarter times four quarters per year. Projections of ARR may be unreliable as a predictor of future results because such projections typically do not incorporate the possibility of subsequent cancellations, discounts or downgrades in services. We believe that ARR is a key indicator of our future revenue potential. However, ARR does not represent GAAP revenue on an annualized basis, is not intended to be a replacement or forecast of GAAP revenue and should be viewed independently as an operating metric.4 SemiAnalysis ClusterMAX™ 2.0 GPU Cloud Rating System (November 2025).

HIVE Achieves FY2026 Total Revenue of $297.8 Million (+158% YoY), HIVE's BUZZ HPC Positioned for GrowthJune 2, 2026 2:02 AM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated November 25, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 2, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSX: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (referred to as the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable data center infrastructure, announces its results for the full year ended March 31, 2026 (all amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated).FY2026 Financial Highlights:Total Revenue: $297.8 million, from digital currency mining ($278.3 million) and high-performance computing (HPC) hosting services ($19.5 million).Digital Currency Revenue: $278.3 million, up 164% year-over-year driven by an approximately four-fold increase in installed operational hashrate and higher average Bitcoin prices (FY2026 average of $98,040 vs. $75,881 in FY2025).Bitcoin Production: 2,885 Bitcoin mined during the fiscal year, up 104% from 1,414 Bitcoin in FY2025, materially outpacing the approximately 42% increase in average network difficulty (from 95.7T in FY2025 to 135.8T in FY2026). As of March 31, 2026, HIVE's total installed hashrate was 25.1 EH/s, or approximately 24.5 EH/s after accounting for controlled downclocking for fleet optimization.HPC Revenue: HIVE's BUZZ HPC business generated a record $19.5 million, up 94% from $10.0 million in FY2025, driven by the deployment of the NVIDIA H200 GPU cluster and strong demand on GPU marketplace.Gross Operating Margins: $107.9 million (36% margin), versus $25.1 million (22% margin) in FY2025 - a 14 percentage-point expansion reflecting operating leverage on the 300 MW Paraguay expansion and HPC gross margin expansion to approximately 40%.G&A: $31.4 million, up from $16.6 million in FY2025 primarily as a result of increased staff to support HIVE's global expansion in digital currency mining, particularly in Paraguay, and the growth of its BUZZ HPC business.GAAP Net Loss: $148.4 million, of which approximately $221.3 million is non-cash, comprising $170.4 million of depreciation and $50.9 million of net non-cash adjustments (primarily share-based compensation, change in fair value of BTC equipment-deposit derivatives, and unrealized loss on investments, partially offset by net realized and unrealized gains on digital currencies and sales-tax recovery).Adjusted EBITDA1: $72.9 million or 24% of total revenue.Digital Assets: $10.8 million in total digital currency holdings on March 31, 2026, including 150 Bitcoin. Q4 FY2026 Financial Highlights:Total Revenue: $71.8 million, from digital currency mining and high-performance computing (HPC) hosting services. Bitcoin Mining Revenue: $67.2 million, down 23.9% sequentially from fiscal Q3 2026 driven by an approximately 27% decline in average Bitcoin price (Q4 average of $76,476 vs. approximately $98,000 in Q32) and an approximately 27% year-over-year increase in average network difficulty (140.7T vs. 111.2T), partially offset by higher average operational hashrate following the completion of Paraguay Phase 3 in November 2025.Bitcoin Production: 876 Bitcoin mined in Q4 2026, broadly in line with the prior quarter as record operational hashrate from the completion of Paraguay Phase 3 offset continued increases in global network difficulty.HPC Revenue: $4.6 million, marginally below Q3 FY2026 as the deployment of HIVE's 504 NVIDIA B200 GPU cluster at Bell Canada's AI Fabric facility shifted from March to May 2026, but up 54% year-over-year from $3.0 million in Q4 FY2025, driven by a full quarter of revenue contribution from the previously deployed NVIDIA H200 GPU cluster, an approximate doubling of GPU marketplace revenue, and additional revenue from new bare-metal customer contracts.Gross Operating Margins: $17.5 million in gross operating margin or 24%.G&A: $9.4 million, up slightly from $8.4 million in Q3 FY2026 reflecting continued investment in personnel to support Paraguay operations and HIVE's BUZZ HPC growth.GAAP Net Loss: $83.3 million, of which approximately $74.7 million is non-cash, comprising $52.7 million of depreciation and $30.6 million of non-cash adjustments.Adjusted EBITDA1: ($9.0) million, reflecting Q4 hashprice compression as Bitcoin declined sharply from its October all-time high through quarter-end and global network difficulty climbed to record levels, together with non-cash foreign-exchange translation losses on multi-jurisdictional balances.Management InsightsFrank Holmes, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman: "Fiscal 2026 marked a defining year for HIVE. As one of the first publicly traded Bitcoin miners to invest in GPU cloud computing and AI infrastructure, we began building a diversified dual-engine growth strategy years ago. In fiscal 2026, we significantly expanded both sides of our platform, increasing our Bitcoin mining hashrate from 6.5 EH/s to 25.1 EH/s and growing contracted HPC ARR to $35 million. This growth translated into strong financial results, with revenue increasing 158% to $297.8 million, gross operating margin increasing 329% to $107.9 million and adjusted EBITDA reaching $72.9 million. Our Paraguay expansion transformed HIVE into one of the world's largest operators of green-energy-powered Bitcoin mining infrastructure, while our BUZZ HPC grew contracted ARR3 to $35 million and established HIVE as an emerging leader in Canadian AI infrastructure. With a clear pathway to $660 million of ARR by year-end 2028, anchored by our planned 320 MW AI Gigafactory in the Greater Toronto Area ("GTA"), the largest planned Canadian AI infrastructure project under private ownership, we believe we are well positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for AI infrastructure.Looking ahead, HIVE sits at the intersection of two powerful technology trends: Bitcoin and AI. Our mandate remains unchanged: disciplined, high-ROIC growth powered by 100% green energy. We believe the investments we have made over the past several years position HIVE for one of the most significant growth periods in our history. I would like to thank our shareholders, our employees, and our partners for their continued trust."Aydin Kilic, President & CEO: "We are data-center builders and operators with a strong pedigree in orchestrating compute, whether GPU- or ASIC-based. Our network, firmware and high-voltage engineering skill sets cover the core competencies required to excel in this rapidly evolving sector. Our global controls and processes are often best-in-class, evidenced by BUZZ Cloud's fastest download speeds4 and HIVE's BTC-per-EH/s production, top ranked amongst other miners5.In 2025, we built 300 MW of hydro-powered Tier-I data center capacity in Paraguay. This capacity was brought online within six months and included the construction and commissioning of two large substations.This year, we have announced a 320 MW site in the GTA, which will be home to Canada's largest AI data center under private ownership and, with capacity for 100,000 NVIDIA GPUs, will be a true Gigafactory. Along with our 70 MW Grand Falls, New Brunswick site and 7 MW Toronto Airport site, we have approximately 400 MW of HPC Tier-III data center capacity in Canada that we look to energize over the next 18 months.We successfully executed one of the largest expansion programs in HIVE's history while continuing to scale our AI infrastructure platform. Our first liquid-cooled NVIDIA B200 GPU cluster with Bell Canada AI Fabric is now live and contributing approximately $15 million of incremental ARR, increasing our contracted HPC ARR from approximately $20 million to $35 million. This deployment validates both the strength of demand for AI infrastructure and our ability to deliver enterprise-grade compute solutions for leading customers.The pace of execution across both businesses has been extraordinary. We are also doubling the size of our GPU cloud this year, from approximately 5,500 NVIDIA GPUs to approximately 11,000 GPUs under management by the end of calendar 2026, which is expected to generate over $200 million of AI Cloud ARR."Darcy Daubaras, CFO: "The financial results from fiscal 2026 highlight the operating leverage embedded in HIVE's business model. Revenue increased 158% year-over-year to $297.8 million, gross operating margin expanded to 36.2%, and cash from operations increased 3.5-fold to $62.3 million. Our annual return on invested capital of 13.3% reflects the discipline with which we deploy capital and compares favorably with our publicly listed peers. The GAAP net loss of $148.4 million was largely attributable to non-cash items, including depreciation and other accounting adjustments. After year-end, we closed $115 million of 0% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2031, generating net proceeds of approximately $109.5 million. In connection with the financing, we also entered into capped-call transactions designed to mitigate potential dilution up to a 125% premium to our April reference price.

HIVE's Board of Directors and management use these non-GAAP financial measures to supplement GAAP metrics to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company, and to better understand the Company's core operating results across fiscal reporting periods. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, while not a substitute for GAAP measures, provide investors with (i) an improved ability to evaluate the underlying performance of the Company and (ii) greater transparency of the key performance metrics used by management with respect to operational and financial decision making.The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein are provided as supplemental information to the Company's performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for US GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under US GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to other issuers. Because of the non-standardized nature of non-GAAP financial measures, HIVE's presentation herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Refer to reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure included at the end of this news release.2 Source: CoinMarketCap, average daily closing price for the three months ended December 31, 2025.3 ARR refers to the Company's run rate revenue calculated on an annualized basis. As context dictates, the Company calculates ARR by: (i) multiplying the revenue realized per week times 52 weeks per year, (ii) multiplying the realized revenue per day times 365 days per year, or (iii) multiplying the per quarter times four quarters per year. Projections of ARR may be unreliable as a predictor of future results because such projections typically do not incorporate the possibility of subsequent cancellations, discounts or downgrades in services. We believe that ARR is a key indicator of our future revenue potential. However, ARR does not represent GAAP revenue on an annualized basis, is not intended to be a replacement or forecast of GAAP revenue and should be viewed independently as an operating metric.4 SemiAnalysis ClusterMAX™ 2.0 GPU Cloud Rating System (November 2025).

BUZZ has secured major milestones along the project's 320 MW power pathway to develop sovereign AI infrastructure in the Toronto-Waterloo innovation corridor. The project is designed to place massive industrial-scale compute directly inside Canada's largest metropolitan economy and one of North America's most important hubs for technology, financial services, and artificial intelligence.The vision of sovereign AI infrastructure is to provide the physical backbone for Canada's intelligence economy. Compute is the new sovereignty. Countries that own the machines will write the future. Countries that rent compute from data centers abroad will not contain sensitive data within their borders. Located within one of the most important 100-kilometre corridors in global AI, the project is positioned between Geoffrey Hinton's legacy, the University of Toronto and the Vector Institute to the east, and Waterloo's world-leading systems and engineering talent to the west. This places the facility at the intersection of research excellence, enterprise demand, and low-latency global network connectivity.Key Highlights:Target Online: Second half of 2027.Capital Investment: ~CAD $3.5 billion.Jobs: 800+ construction, hundreds of permanent high-skill roles.Powered by Ontario's Clean Grid: Designed for high efficiency AI compute using closed-loop cooling systems with no-water use approach consistent with BUZZ HPC's broader sustainability strategy.Community First Approach: Focused on responsible development, local economic participation and long-term alignment with national priorities.Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE and BUZZ:"AI is the new industrial base and compute is the factory floor. Canada produced the Godfathers of deep learning but kept renting the factories. That era is over. Between Toronto and Waterloo, BUZZ is building the sovereign AI infrastructure that turns Canadian intelligence into Canadian dominance. At full build-out, this intelligence factory will deploy over 100,000 GPUs, creating one of North America's largest domestically controlled AI clusters. Low-latency inference, AI agents, financial platforms, healthcare breakthroughs, scientific discovery, and national priority workloads will finally run on Canadian iron, under Canadian control. Our vision is to build AI infrastructure that will serve humanity, with the potential to improve quality of life for millions of Canadians."Aydin Kilic, President & CEO of HIVE Digital Technologies:"We have been strategically land-banking by regional substations, and we are very pleased to announce this expansion. HIVE now has over 850 MW of power globally; this includes our 450 MW of operating data centers plus a pipeline of 400 MW of capacity, which we expect to bring online in 2027. Globally diversified growth, this includes our 100 MW of operating data centers in Canada, now with a pipeline of 320 MW for 2027. BUZZ has done a phenomenal job expanding our footprint in Canada.

RETRANSMISSION: HIVE's BUZZ Starts Building A Digital Superhighway for Eastern Canada's First Sovereign AI FactoryMay 8, 2026 6:00 AM
NewsfilePrivate high-capacity wavelength services to Grand Falls - the connectivity moat that separates a powered campus from a sovereign AI factoryVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 8, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) ("HIVE"), through its wholly owned subsidiary BUZZ High Performance Computing ("BUZZ"), today announced it has contracted a new fibre optic network overbuild and upgrade of the carrier transport network at its Grand Falls Data Centre in New Brunswick. This is a critical infrastructure step to advance the HIVE New Brunswick campus to a Tier III HPC enabled data center. The estimated capital commitment from HIVE will be approximately $3.1 million over 5 years (all amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated). Proceeds from HIVE's recent $115 million 0% exchangeable note issuance are being deployed towards reaching the Company's growth targets in GPU AI and Tier III HPC data center growth. The conversion of the New Brunswick is amongst the Company's targets this year, and this new fiber optic network marks an advancement in this goal.Grand Falls is already energized at 70 MW gross load, with buildings and core electrical infrastructure in place. BUZZ is converting the site into a 50 MW Tier III+ AI factory designed for enterprise, government, and sovereign AI workloads.To move intelligence at scale, Canada needs specialized optical fibre, and HIVE's BUZZ is partnered with Canada's largest carrier1 to build this in New Brunswick.In partnership with a Canadian carrier, BUZZ is upgrading Grand Falls with dedicated high-capacity optical wavelength services, including multiple 100 Gbps and 400 Gbps connections. Delivery is expected to begin in Q3 2026. The Canadian carrier will have substantial capital expenditures beyond HIVE's capital commitment, to complete the installation of these high-speed fiber connections."AI is the new industrial race," said Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE and BUZZ. "Countries that build sovereign AI factories will raise their productivity and security through data sovereignty, ensuring data doesn't leave the countries borders, providing those nations greater data IQ. Countries that do not have their own sovereign AI infrastructure will depend on foreign infrastructure and thus rent intelligence from others."Mr. Holmes added: "The fibre overbuild is the superhighway that moves that intelligence to customers. Power plus fibre plus GPUs equals an AI factory. New Brunswick has the chance to become one of Canada's most important AI infrastructure hubs. We are flourishing in the AI token economy, and our vision is to consume electrons and export tokens. The vision is to turn Canadian power into Canadian AI tokens of intelligence."Aydin Kilic, President and CEO of HIVE, said: "Connectivity is a prerequisite of AI factory development. Power alone does not make a sovereign AI facility; the network that carries compute to customers is equally critical. By securing exclusive dedicated network capacity at Grand Falls, we are creating the infrastructure to service enterprise and sovereign AI customers with the redundancy and throughput the AI market demands. As our GPU AI cloud offering doubles in size this year from 5,500 GPUs to 11,000 GPUs, we are excited to expand our HPC colocation business as well by bringing 50 MW of Tier III HPC data center capacity online, to accelerate the growth of BUZZ."2Craig Tavares, President and COO of BUZZ, said: "Grand Falls is being built for the sovereign AI strategy that Canada needs: Canadian-owned, Canadian-operated, secure, scalable, and designed for sensitive workloads on Canadian soil. With 70 MW of powered infrastructure, a 32-acre expansion path, Tier III design underway, and dedicated optical fibre capacity, BUZZ is preparing to bring one of Canada's largest sovereign AI campuses to market."About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. is the first publicly listed company to mine digital assets powered by green energy.

HIVE Digital Announces Closing of Private Offering of US$115 Million of 0% Exchangeable Senior Notes Due 2031April 21, 2026 7:47 PM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated November 25, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - April 21, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), today announced that HIVE Bermuda 2026 Ltd., its wholly-owned subsidiary (the "Issuer") has closed its private offering (the "Offering") of US$115 million aggregate principal amount of 0% exchangeable senior notes due 2031 (the "Notes") to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Offering included the exercise in full of the initial purchasers' option to purchase an additional US$15 million aggregate principal amount of Notes (the "Option").Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE stated, "We are very pleased with the outcome of this offering. We believe the results are outstanding, as the strong demand for this offering led to an upsized deal while maintaining a 0% coupon and the strong conversion premium of 125% with the capped call."Aydin Kilic, President & CEO of HIVE added, "These exchangeable senior notes bring a new class of institutional investors to HIVE, and we welcome the additional liquidity. We believe zero-interest rate debt signals the confidence investors have in our ability to drive the value of HIVE shares to realize the exchangeable premium of these notes. This minimizes dilution while positioning HIVE with a low cost of capital to realize its 2026 growth targets for AI infrastructure."The Notes will mature on April 15, 2031, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or exchanged. Prior to January 15, 2031, the Notes will be exchangeable only upon satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and thereafter, the Notes will be exchangeable at the option of holders at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The Issuer may settle exchanges of the Notes in cash, common shares ("Common Shares") of HIVE or a combination of cash and Common Shares, at its election. The initial exchange rate for the Notes is 389.5029 Common Shares per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes, equivalent to an initial exchange price of approximately US$2.57 per Common Share (approximately 17.5% premium to the last reported sale price of US$2.185 per Common Share on the Nasdaq on April 16, 2026). The Issuer will have the right to redeem the Notes in certain circumstances and will be required to offer to repurchase the Notes upon the occurrence of certain events.The Issuer estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately US$109.5 million in net proceeds to HIVE, after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses, but before deducting the cost of the capped call transactions. The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to subscribe for shares of one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (including, but not limited to, the purchase of graphics processing units) and data center development. HIVE intends to fund approximately US$19.8 million for capped call transactions (as described below) using cash on hand, and the Issuer may use a portion of the net proceeds to reimburse HIVE for the cost of the capped call transactions.In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated cash-settled capped call transactions with certain financial institutions. The cap price of the capped call transactions is initially US$4.92 per Common Share, which represents a premium of 125% to the last reported sale price of US$2.185 per Common Share on the Nasdaq on April 16, 2026, and will be subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.The Company has applied for and received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") to list its Common Shares. Listing is subject to the Company fulfilling all of the requirements of the TSX on or before June 30, 2026, including distribution of the Common Shares to a minimum number of public shareholders. It is expected that the Common Shares will cease trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") and commence trading on the TSX on or around April 30, 2026. As a condition to the approval of the Offering, while the Company remains listed on the TSXV, the Offering is being conducted in accordance with the rules of the TSX. The Company is relying on the exemption under Section 602.1 of the TSX's Company Manual (the "TSX Manual") available to Eligible Interlisted Issuers (as defined in the TSX Manual) in respect of the Offering. None of the Notes, the guarantee or the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of the Notes, if any, have been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction.About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. was among the first publicly listed companies to prioritize mining digital assets powered by green energy.

HIVE Digital Announces Upsizing and Pricing of Private Offering of US$100 Million of 0% Exchangeable Senior Notes Due 2031April 16, 2026 9:46 PM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated November 25, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - April 16, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure and AI compute, today announced the pricing of US$100 million aggregate principal amount of 0% exchangeable senior notes due 2031 (the "Notes") in a private offering (the "Offering") by HIVE Bermuda 2026 Ltd., its wholly-owned subsidiary (the "Issuer"), to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be issued in the Offering was increased to US$100 million from the previously announced US$75 million. The Issuer also granted the initial purchasers of the Notes an option, exercisable within a period of 13 days from and including the date the Notes are first issued, to purchase up to an additional US$15 million aggregate principal amount of Notes (the "Option"). The sale of the Notes is expected to close on April 21, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.The Notes will be general unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Issuer's obligations under the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by HIVE. The Notes will not bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the Notes will not accrete. The Notes will mature on April 15, 2031, unless earlier exchanged, redeemed or repurchased. Prior to January 15, 2031, the Notes will be exchangeable only upon satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and thereafter, at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The Issuer will settle exchanges by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, common shares of HIVE ("Common Shares") or a combination of cash and Common Shares, at the Issuer's election. The initial exchange rate will be 389.5029 Common Shares per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial exchange price of approximately US$2.57 per Common Share, which represents a premium of approximately 17.5% above the closing sale price per Common Share on the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq") on April 16, 2026), subject to adjustment in some events. The Issuer may only redeem the Notes prior to April 20, 2029 at its option, in whole but not in part, upon the occurrence of certain tax-related events. The Issuer also may redeem the Notes at its option on or after April 20, 2029 in whole or in part if the last reported sale price of the Common Shares has been at least 130% of the exchange price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Issuer provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to, but excluding, the redemption date. Holders of the Notes may require the Issuer to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes on April 15, 2029, at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased. If HIVE undergoes a "fundamental change," subject to certain conditions and limited exceptions, holders of the Notes may require the Issuer to repurchase for cash all or any portion 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 (if any) to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date of the Notes or upon the Issuer's issuance of a notice of redemption, the Issuer will, in certain circumstances, increase the exchange rate for holders of the Notes who elect to exchange their Notes in connection with such a corporate event or exchange their Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption during the related redemption period, as the case may be.The Issuer estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately US$95 million (or approximately US$109.5 million if the initial purchasers exercise the Option in full), after deducting the initial purchasers' estimated discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Issuer. The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to subscribe for shares of one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (including, but not limited to, the purchase of graphics processing units) and data center development. HIVE intends to fund approximately US$17.2 million for capped call transactions (as described below) using cash on hand, and the Issuer may use a portion of the net proceeds to reimburse HIVE for the cost of the capped call transactions. If the initial purchasers exercise the Option, the Issuer expects to use the net proceeds from the sale of the additional Notes: (i) to subscribe for shares of one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (as described above) and data center development and (ii) to reimburse HIVE for the cost of entering into additional capped call transactions, as described below.In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated cash-settled capped call transactions with certain financial institutions (collectively, the "option counterparties"). The cap price of the capped call transactions is initially US$4.92 per Common Share, which represents a premium of approximately 125.0% to the last reported sale price of US$2.185 per Common Share on the Nasdaq on April 16, 2026. The capped call transactions will be subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Notes. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce potential economic dilution of the Common Shares upon exchange of any Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company could be required to make in excess of the principal amount of exchanged Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. If the initial purchasers exercise the Option, the Company expects to enter into additional capped call transactions with the option counterparties.In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the Company expects the option counterparties or their respective affiliates to purchase Common Shares and/or enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the Common Shares concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Notes, and such option counterparties or their respective affiliates may unwind these various derivative transactions and/or sell Common Shares in open market transactions. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Common Shares or the Notes at that time. In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to the Common Shares and/or purchasing or selling Common Shares or other securities of the Company in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Notes and prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period related to an exchange of the Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or decrease in the market price of the Common Shares or the Notes, which could affect holders of the Notes' ability to exchange the Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to an exchange of the Notes, it could affect the amount and value of the consideration that holders of the Notes will receive upon exchange of such Notes.The Company has applied for and received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") to list its Common Shares. Listing is subject to the Company fulfilling all of the requirements of the TSX on or before June 30, 2026, including distribution of the Common Shares to a minimum number of public shareholders. It is expected that the Common Shares will cease trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") and commence trading on the TSX on or around April 30, 2026. As a condition to the approval of the Offering, while the Company remains listed on the TSXV, the Offering is being conducted in accordance with the rules of the TSX. The Company is relying on the exemption under Section 602.1 of the TSX's Company Manual (the "TSX Manual") available to Eligible Interlisted Issuers (as defined in the TSX Manual) in respect of the Offering.None of the Notes, the guarantee or the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of the Notes, if any, have been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction.About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. was among the first publicly listed companies to prioritize mining digital assets powered by green energy.

(TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure and AI compute, today announced that HIVE Bermuda 2026 Ltd., its wholly-owned subsidiary (the "Issuer"), intends to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, US$75 million aggregate principal amount of 0% exchangeable senior notes due 2031 (the "Notes") in a private offering (the "Offering") to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Issuer also expects to grant the initial purchasers of the Notes an option, exercisable within a period of 13 days from and including the date the Notes are first issued, to purchase up to an additional US$15 million aggregate principal amount of Notes (the "Option").The Notes will be exchangeable under certain conditions. The Issuer will settle exchanges by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, common shares of HIVE ("Common Shares") or a combination of cash and Common Shares, at the Issuer's election. The initial exchange rate and other terms of the Notes will be determined at the time of pricing of the Offering. The Notes will not bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the Notes will not accrete.The Notes will be general unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Issuer's obligations under the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by HIVE.The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to subscribe for shares of one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (including, but not limited to, the purchase of graphics processing units) and data center development. HIVE intends to fund capped call transactions (as described below) using cash on hand, and the Issuer may use a portion of the net proceeds to reimburse HIVE for the cost of the capped call transactions. If the initial purchasers exercise the Option, the Issuer expects to use the net proceeds from the sale of the additional Notes: (i) to subscribe for shares of one or more of HIVE's direct or indirect subsidiaries, which in turn will use such proceeds for general corporate purposes, capital investment (as described above) and data center development and (ii) to reimburse HIVE for the cost of entering into additional capped call transactions, as described below.In connection with the Offering, the Company expects to enter into privately negotiated cash-settled capped call transactions with one or more financial institutions (collectively, the "option counterparties"). The capped call transactions will cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Notes, the number of Common Shares that will initially underlie the Notes, assuming the initial purchasers do not exercise the Option. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce potential economic dilution of the Common Shares upon exchange of any Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company could be required to make in excess of the principal amount of exchanged Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. If the initial purchasers exercise the Option, the Company expects to enter into additional capped call transactions with the option counterparties.In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the Company expects the option counterparties or their respective affiliates to purchase Common Shares and/or enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the Common Shares concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Notes, and such option counterparties or their respective affiliates may unwind these various derivative transactions and/or sell Common Shares in open market transactions. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Common Shares or the Notes at that time. In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to the Common Shares and/or purchasing or selling Common Shares or other securities of the Company in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Notes and prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period related to an exchange of the Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or decrease in the market price of the Common Shares or the Notes, which could affect holders of the Notes' ability to exchange the Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to an exchange of the Notes, it could affect the amount and value of the consideration that holders of the Notes will receive upon exchange of such Notes.The Company also announces that it has applied for and received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") to list its Common Shares. Listing is subject to the Company fulfilling all of the requirements of the TSX on or before June 30, 2026, including distribution of the Common Shares to a minimum number of public shareholders.

RETRANSMISSION: HIVE Digital Technologies Reaches AI Cloud Milestone in Paraguay, Powers Columbia University LLM Research from New York to AsunciónMarch 18, 2026 6:00 AM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated November 25, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - March 18, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure and AI compute, today announced that its BUZZ AI Cloud platform in Asunción, Paraguay is now operational with live GPU compute nodes serving workloads on the platform by an academic research team from Columbia University in New York.The Asunción deployment is the first GPU cluster to go live under HIVE's phased strategy to layer AI and high-performance computing ("HPC") infrastructure onto its existing renewable energy footprint in Paraguay. The cluster is hosted within a Tier-III data center operated by Paraguay's largest telecommunications provider and is purpose-built to handle AI model training, inference, and computationally intensive research workloads. HIVE expects to use the results of the cluster to establish the proof of concept for AI compute between New York and Asuncion. From this proof-of-concept, the Company expects to build future Tier III data center capacity in Yguazú, with infrastructure upgrades required to provide high-availability, low-latency GPU AI cloud compute from Paraguay. Paraguay's hydroelectric generation capacity and the telecom partner's nationwide fiber backbone provide the energy and connectivity foundation to support that growth. As regional South American institutional and commercial demand for HPC and AI Cloud develops, the pace and scale of the Company's Tier III expansion in Paraguay will be guided by customer adoption and the Company's capital position.Columbia University Research Team Goes Live on BUZZ CloudThe Columbia University team is using BUZZ Cloud GPU infrastructure to conduct research focused on large language model ("LLM") pre-training, including end-to-end training of foundation models. The research team's use of BUZZ Cloud infrastructure is a non-commercial research engagement intended to generate performance data that will inform the Company's roadmap for scaling commercial HPC capacity in Paraguay. The team is developing optimization algorithms that improve model quality while reducing computational and memory costs, evaluating their methods using standard training metrics such as loss and perplexity, as well as downstream benchmarks.Their work begins with small- to medium-scale models (0.2B to 2B parameters, including GPT-2-class and LLaMA-style architectures) and is scaling to larger models (8B+ parameters) using multi-GPU distributed training frameworks. The team's recent focus includes improving and understanding Muon and MuonClip, the latter of which has been used in training industry-level LLMs such as Kimi K2. In early experiments, Muon has shown roughly 1.3x greater efficiency1 than standard baselines by exploiting the structure of model weights. The team's LLM reasoning research was recently accepted for publication by Transactions on Machine Learning Research ("TMLR"), a peer-reviewed journal hosted by the Journal of Machine Learning Research ("JMLR"). Having the Columbia University research team run active LLM training jobs from New York on GPU infrastructure in Asunción provides HIVE with real-world performance data across latency, throughput, and workload management. The Company intends to use these findings to shape its roadmap for scaling HPC capacity in Paraguay, with initial deployment targets through 2027.Paraguay: The Western Hemisphere's Next Potential AI Infrastructure FrontierParaguay's President Santiago Peña earned his Master's degree in Public Administration from Columbia's School of International and Public Affairs ("SIPA") in 2003, creating a notable link between the institution whose researchers are now training LLMs on BUZZ Cloud and the nation whose clean energy powers it.Management believes large-scale AI compute requires two resources Paraguay can deliver in abundance: reliable, low-cost electricity and fiber connectivity with the bandwidth and security to move data across long distances without degradation. HIVE's existing 300-megawatt ("MW") renewable power base, sourced from hydroelectric generation, combined with the telecom partner's enterprise-grade network infrastructure, creates a platform that can serve demanding workloads originating outside Paraguay's borders, including from North American institutional clients.Paraguay's economy has posted strong growth in recent quarters, backed by stable governance and a policy environment that has welcomed foreign infrastructure investment. HIVE believes those conditions, paired with the country's distinctive energy profile and expanding digital connectivity, position the country to play a growing role in South America's AI and high-performance computing future.Strategic Outlook from HIVE LeadershipFrank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE, stated, "HIVE has 300 MW of renewable hydroelectric power operational in Paraguay, with another 100 MW in development. Before scaling an AI factory, it's prudent to beta test. This deployment marks our first live GPU compute workload in Asuncion and provides the real-world performance data we need to guide our Tier-III expansion roadmap. We started in Paraguay with Bitcoin mining. Layering AI and HPC infrastructure onto that existing energy base is the next phase, and this cluster is the first step in validating that approach."Aydin Kilic, President and CEO of HIVE, added, "We are taking a meaningful and impactful approach to developing a solution to being a leader of GPU AI compute and HPC in South America. Having a research team from Columbia University running LLM training workloads on HIVE's BUZZ Cloud infrastructure in Asunción is a powerful validation of what we are building. We will use this data to validate our proof of concept for GPU Cloud AI compute from New York to Asunción and to build our roadmap for large-scale HPC capacity in Paraguay by 2027."About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. is the first publicly listed company to mine digital assets powered by green energy.

RETRANSMISSION: HIVE's BUZZ HPC Expands Data Center Footprint into British Columbia with 4 Times Growth in Liquid-Cooled AI Data Center CapacityMarch 16, 2026 6:00 AM
NewsfileThis news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated November 25, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - March 16, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure and AI compute, through its wholly owned subsidiary BUZZ High Performance Computing ("BUZZ"), today announced a 4x expansion of its liquid-cooled AI data center capacity through its previously announced strategic data center partner in Canada, growing the existing 4 megawatts ("MW") in Manitoba to 16.6 MW of critical IT load across two Canadian provinces (all figures referenced herein are in critical IT load), expanding HIVE's BUZZ HPC Sovereign AI Compute offering in Canada (all amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated).The expansion adds a new colocation facility in British Columbia, providing an immediate 5 MW of capacity with an option to scale an additional 7.6 MW. This new immediate capacity facilitates the deployment of upwards of 2,000 next-generation high-power density AI-optimized GPUs in British Columbia, complementing the capacity for approximately 2,000 GPUs in BUZZ's existing Manitoba facility. In total, the Company now has a near-term ramp to over 4,000 GPUs in Canada through its data center partnerships and its own sites, accelerating the Company's previously announced GPU AI cloud deployment targets for calendar 2026. 4 Times Growth in Sovereign AI Data Center Runway Across CanadaThe Company's AI colocation footprint with Bell Canada AI Fabric, its strategic data center partner, now spans two provinces in Western Canada:Manitoba: 4 MW of critical IT load. BUZZ has deployed 504 next-generation AI-optimized GPUs consuming approximately 1 MW, with 3 MW of remaining capacity to support approximately 1,500 additional GPUs.British Columbia (Phase 1): 5 MW of critical IT load, available immediately. This capacity supports the deployment of approximately 2,000 next-generation, high-power-density, AI-optimized GPUs.British Columbia (Phase 2): Option for an additional 7.6 MW of critical IT load in 2027, supporting an additional 3,000 next-generation high-power density AI-optimized GPUs.In aggregate, the Company now has a growth path to over 6,000 new GPU deployments in Canada through this strategic data center partnership with Bell Canada AI Fabric, providing the infrastructure runway for its GPU cloud revenue objectives.Importantly, no additional capital expenditures are required to secure this expanded colocation capacity. Deposits made by the Company in 2025 with the strategic data center partner are sufficient to secure the full growth pipeline. Standard operational costs associated with GPU procurement, installation, and ongoing data center operations remain separate and are expected as part of normal business activities.Accelerating AI Cloud GrowthThe Company previously disclosed a target of achieving new deployments of 6,000 latest generation GPUs for AI cloud. This colocation expansion provides the infrastructure required to achieve that target on an accelerated basis. 4,000 next-generation AI-optimized GPUs are targeted for contracted revenue in the next 6 months (including 2,000 high-power density GPUs in BC). The Company expects further expand another 2000 high-power density GPUs through additional partner data centers or its own data centers, reaching 6000 GPUs in Canada, with a target of $200 million in contracted annualized run-rate revenue ("HPC ARR") by the end of this fiscal year (period end March 31, 2027). For new long-term GPU contracts with enterprise clients, the Company is targeting 75% HPC EBITDA."Nations that control their own AI compute will lead the next era of global innovation. Canada has the talent, the energy, and now, with BUZZ, the infrastructure to compete at the highest level," said Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE. "Since 2017, HIVE has demonstrated the ability to build, scale, and operate complex digital infrastructure with consistency and rigor across nine time zones and three continents. We are now applying that same discipline to AI. Our dual-engine model, Tier-I Bitcoin mining generating cash flow and Tier-III AI compute delivering high-margin recurring revenue, was built for exactly this moment. This expansion with Bell is a statement of conviction. We believe sovereign AI compute will define the next decade of Canadian innovation, and HIVE intends to be at the center of it. Moreover, in addition to our exciting growth ramp, HIVE owns and operates other data centres in Canada, which prime for conversion for hyperscaler colocation, and even government or military contracts. Notably, indications to management are that our 70 MW site in New Brunswick offers the scale of powered land for hyperscaler needs, and we believe the location of our 7.6 MW Toronto Airport site is very attractive to government or military applications."Aydin Kilic, President and CEO of HIVE, added: "This expansion gives us committed liquid-cooled data center capacity across two provinces, and a clear path to over 6,000 next-generation AI-optimized GPUs in Canada. As demand for AI compute ramps, we can move quickly to deploy additional clusters of AI-optimized GPUs online to realize our ARR targets for 2026, while scaling EBITDA in a cap-ex light strategy. The data center infrastructure is now secured, and the demand for compute is strong. We are seeing economics where 3-year deals and 5-year deals for longer-term GPU contracts provide investors with comfort that there is a strong fundamental return on the investment and deployment of these GPU clusters. Investors should expect near-term updates on GPU procurement and cloud revenue contracts as we execute on this accelerated timeline."* As used herein, "HPC EBITDA" is defined as earnings from HPC operations before deducting HPC-related interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. "HPC ARR", as a metric, represents total HPC revenue only, and does not represent profitability. HPC ARR is presented here as a measure of growth. These non-GAAP measures should be read in conjunction with and should not be viewed as alternatives to or replacements for measures of operating results and liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP in HIVE's quarterly and annual financial statements. All financial projections reflect current market sentiment and public disclosures as of March 2026; actual outcomes may vary. Investors should conduct their own due diligence.Capital Allocation and Future Investment Strategy in EuropeAs previously disclosed, HIVE has operated in Sweden since 2017, establishing multiple successful datacenter facilities powered entirely by renewable energy. Over that time, HIVE has made meaningful contributions to the local economy by engaging numerous subcontractors and supporting community initiatives such as the Boden Hockey Club. Notably, HIVE was also the first datacenter operator in Sweden to participate in the national grid-balancing program in collaboration with Svenska Kraftnät and Vattenfall, helping stabilize renewable power supply while supporting regional energy infrastructure.HIVE's acquisition of the 7 MW datacenter in Boden, Sweden, in November 2023 marked an early step in the Company's strategic transition from Tier-I digital infrastructure toward Tier-III high-performance computing and artificial intelligence infrastructure. While the site initially operated as part of HIVE's renewable-powered hashrate production, the facility was subsequently designated for conversion to Tier-III AI and HPC standards capable of supporting enterprise-grade GPU clusters.As part of this transition, HIVE is progressively phasing down its ASIC-based hashrate production (provided to foreign Bitcoin mining pool customers) at its larger Boden facility, enabling the Company to redeploy resources toward its expanding AI and HPC strategy in Europe.This strategic shift has been driven by increasing challenges faced by HIVE's Swedish subsidiaries in their traditional hashrate production business. Recently, the Company has experienced ongoing enforcement actions and what it believes are misapplications of existing tax rules by the Swedish tax authorities. Despite receiving supportive opinions from several respected law firms, a tier-1 accounting firm, and top local academics specializing in Swedish value-added-tax matters, the authorities have imposed a security deposit requirement on disputed tax assessments. Historically, because of the strength of the Company's case, it had always been granted deferrals, while awaiting a final judicial appeal. These developments have created operational uncertainty and have limited the Company's ability to continue operating its traditional hashrate production model on a consistent economic basis.In response to these evolving conditions, HIVE has determined that continuing its ASIC-based hashrate production model may no longer be economically viable in Sweden, and the Company will begin exploring the phase out of these activities.As a proactive solution, HIVE is shifting its strategic focus toward high-performance computing and artificial intelligence Tier-III datacenters. This transition is already underway with the upgrade of the Company's 7 MW facility in Boden to a Tier-III design. Construction is currently in progress, and the facility is expected to support GPU clusters based on the NVIDIA GB300 GPU architecture, designed to power demanding AI training and inference workloads.This investment will position HIVE at the forefront of next-generation digital infrastructure while ensuring the Company remains a contributor to the region's technological development. For the Boden community, these next-generation datacenters are expected to support local economic growth, strengthen education partnerships, and attract technology-focused businesses, further solidifying the region's reputation as a hub for digital innovation.RSU Grants Reinforce Commitment to Sustainable GrowthTo ensure the team delivering on HIVE's current and future vision has direct alignment with shareholders, HIVE is granting 2,849,400 Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") to employees, officers, directors, and consultants under its RSU plan, with a mandatory one-year TSX Venture Exchange vesting period. This aligns management with investors to build long-term value. Inspired by Harvard Business School research on non-linear incentives, these quarterly milestone-based awards foster innovation and retention-aligning global talent from Paraguay to Sweden with HIVE's vision for sustainable growth and minimal dilution.HIVE has shared these RSUs with all employees, both new and long-serving, to preserve its unique culture, which focuses on efficiency and return on invested capital.About HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.Founded in 2017, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. is the first publicly listed company to mine digital assets powered by green energy.
