Pat McCann, Equity Research Analyst at Noble Capital Markets, asked about Bit Digital's current ranking in its goal to become the largest public ETH treasury and sought clarification on the G&A expenses for the quarter and their future trajectory.

Answer

CEO Sam Tabar clarified that Bit Digital's goal is to be the 'best' ETH treasury, emphasizing responsible and prudent ETH acquisition methods, such as unsecured converts, and strategic positioning with assets like White Fiber, rather than solely focusing on size. Head of Investor Relations Cameron Schnier and CFO Eric Huang explained that the elevated G&A expenses for the quarter included non-recurring costs related to the White Fiber IPO and discretionary marketing. They anticipate G&A to be materially lower and the standalone Bit Digital cost structure to become significantly leaner and more flexible on a normalized forward basis.

Pat McCann of Noble Capital Markets inquired about the company's long-term financing strategy for new campuses and the role of Private Activity Bonds (PABs) relative to the new warehouse facility.

Answer

CFO Francisco Gonzalez explained the long-term strategy is to ultimately use the programmatic bond market. He detailed that the current warehouse facility is a tactical choice to reduce negative arbitrage, benefit from floating rates, and transfer construction risk away from the permanent bond program. The company plans to refinance the warehouse facility with a long-term PAB offering in three to four years, which will strengthen the credit profile for existing bondholders.

Pat McCann questioned the company's strategy regarding hedging currency risk for the Mexican peso and its plans for the upcoming license renewal in Colombia.

Answer

CFO Oscar Iglesias explained that while currency hedging has not been implemented due to the natural hedge of a peso-denominated cost structure, it is something the company might consider in the medium-to-long term as profitability in Mexico increases. CEO Aviv Sher affirmed that the company views its licenses as assets and intends to renew the Colombian license, noting that the market is generating slightly positive EBITDA and may be a focus for future growth.
