Across recent events, MIGI’s price has mostly moved in the same direction as news tone, with 4 of 5 items aligned; the main divergence followed its Q3 2025 earnings.
Over the past few months, Mawson has combined capital markets actions, operational updates, and listing compliance milestones. A 1-for-20 reverse split and at-the-market issuance supported efforts to regain Nasdaq compliance, which was achieved by December 22, 2025. Operationally, the company reported mixed monthly trends and Q3 2025 financials showing a return to quarterly profitability while still citing going‑concern risks. The new adversary complaint follows the November 4, 2025 dismissal of an involuntary bankruptcy petition, extending the legal chapter referenced in prior disclosures.
Regulatory & Risk Context
An effective S-3 shelf filed on 2025-09-03 allows Mawson to offer various securities, including common and preferred stock, debt, warrants, and units. The prospectus highlights going‑concern risks, Nasdaq listing concerns, and reliance on at‑the‑market equity programs, signaling that additional equity or debt issuance remains a key funding option.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement details Mawson’s adversary complaint under 11 U.S.C. § 303(i) seeking attorneys’ fees, costs, and damages tied to a dismissed involuntary bankruptcy that allegedly caused a one-day $23 million market cap loss. It extends the legal storyline already disclosed in recent 8-Ks. Investors may watch for court outcomes, any quantified damage awards, and how these interact with the firm’s funding strategy under its S-3 shelf and at-the-market programs.

(NASDAQ: MIGI) (“Mawson” or the “Company”) announced today that it has filed an adversary proceeding in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”) in the matter entitled “Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. versus W Capital Advisors Pty Ltd, et al.”, under 11 U.S.C. § 303(i). The action seeks attorneys’ fees, costs, and damages against multiple parties related to the December 2024 involuntary bankruptcy filed against Mawson (the “Involuntary Petition”).

The Involuntary Petition was dismissed with prejudice by written order on November 4, 2025, and the Court expressly preserved Mawson’s right to pursue certain remedies against the petitioning creditors. Mawson now seeks compensatory and punitive damages, sanctions, and injunctive relief to prevent further violations and deter future abuse of the bankruptcy process.
“This filing is about protecting shareholder value and holding the responsible parties accountable for their egregious misconduct,” said Kaliste Saloom, Mawson’s Interim CEO and General Counsel. “We are committed to pursuing full recovery to protect our shareholders’ investment.”
