Bitfarms Announces U.S. Redomiciliation Plan
and Intent to Rebrand as Keel Infrastructure
Special Meeting of Shareholders to Approve Plan
to be Held on March 20, 2026
TORONTO, Ontario and NEW YORK, February 6,
2026 – Bitfarms Ltd. (NASDAQ/TSX: BITF) (“Bitfarms” or the “Company”), a North American digital infrastructure
and energy company, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) under
which the Company will redomicile from Canada to the United States (the “US Redomiciliation”), subject to receipt of shareholder,
stock exchange and court approvals.
The Arrangement is the culmination of a comprehensive
strategic review process undertaken by the Board over the past 12 months, including ongoing analysis of investor sentiment and capital
markets trends to identify opportunities to enhance long-term shareholder value. The Board of Directors unanimously determined that the
US Redomiciliation is in the best interests of Bitfarms, and unanimously recommends that the shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholders”)
vote in favor of the Arrangement.
CEO Ben Gagnon stated, “Bitfarms is officially
launching the final phase of our pivot to the U.S., positioning us to more effectively execute on the significant opportunities we see
ahead in HPC/AI infrastructure development. This transition will expand our access to new sources of capital, increase our eligibility
for index inclusion, and simplify our story for U.S. investors, among other benefits that we believe support our ability to continue creating
value for our shareholders. As a business, fortifying our U.S. footprint will bring significant benefits including reducing complexity
for potential customers and enhancing our current relationships with suppliers and energy providers. We look forward to continued engagement
with our shareholders to outline our clear path forward for value creation as a U.S. company.”
Upon completion of the US Redomiciliation, the
ultimate parent company of Bitfarms will be a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware. It is anticipated that this
new parent corporation will operate under the name Keel Infrastructure.
“Our new name reflects how we think about
infrastructure, how we’re building this company, and how we want to serve our future customers,” Gagnon continued. “The
keel is the structural backbone of a vessel—the largely unseen but critical foundation that provides stability and converts energy
into forward motion. It represents our commitment to becoming an infrastructure partner that enables customers to achieve their goals
in the HPC/AI revolution that will continue for years to come. We are no longer a Bitcoin company, we are an infrastructure-first owner
and developer for HPC/AI data centers across North America. As we enter this next chapter, our focus is simple: we’re building the
infrastructure for the compute of the future.”
To effect the US Redomiciliation, each outstanding
common share of Bitfarms will be exchanged for one share of common stock of Keel Infrastructure (“Keel Infrastructure US Common
Stock”) pursuant to the Arrangement. Upon completion of the US Redomiciliation, Keel Infrastructure US Common Stock is expected
to trade on the Nasdaq and the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) under the ticker symbol KEEL, subject to receipt of all
necessary approvals of the Nasdaq and the TSX.
The US Redomiciliation is consistent with Bitfarms’
strategic focus on expanding its U.S. operations and U.S.-based HPC/AI infrastructure and follows the Company’s August 2025 commitment
to convert to U.S. GAAP as part of this broader strategy. As part of this focus, Bitfarms’ office in New York City will be the Company’s
sole principal executive office following completion of the US Redomiciliation.
The US Redomiciliation is not expected to impact
the Company’s existing operations or facilities in Canada and the United States. Following completion of the US Redomiciliation,
Keel Infrastructure and its subsidiaries will carry on the business currently conducted by Bitfarms and its subsidiaries.
As part of the US Redomiciliation process, Bitfarms
has engaged outside advisors to assist in the transaction. These include Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP and Osler, Hoskin
& Harcourt LLP serving as legal advisors, and Innisfree M&A Incorporated and Laurel Hill Advisory Group serving as proxy solicitation
agents. Joele Frank, Wilkinson Brimmer Katcher is serving as strategic communications advisor.
The US Redomiciliation is expected to be completed
on or about April 1, 2026, subject to obtaining shareholder, stock exchange and court approvals, as well as the satisfaction of all other
conditions precedent.
The Company will seek shareholder approval of
the Arrangement at a special meeting of the Shareholders to be held at 9:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on March 20, 2026 (the “Meeting”).
Shareholders of record at the close of business on February 13, 2026, the record date for the Meeting, will receive notice of and be entitled
to vote at the Meeting. The terms and conditions of the Arrangement will be disclosed in further detail in a management information circular
to be mailed to Shareholders in advance of the Meeting. A copy of the management information circular and related documents will also
be filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and will be available under the Company’s SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.com,
under the Company’s EDGAR profile at www.sec.gov and on the Company’s website at www.bitfarms.com.
Macquarie Debt Facility Update
On February 5, 2026, Bitfarms provided formal
notice to repay in full all amounts outstanding under its $300 million debt facility with Macquarie Group’s Commodities and Global
Markets business.
“Bitfarms originally secured and converted
this debt facility to accelerate development at Panther Creek. To date it has successfully funded our progress towards Notice to Proceed
(NTP), including permit applications and securing long lead time items, like substations,” said Jonathan Mir, CFO. “Repaying
the Macquarie debt facility is a strategic move that strengthens our balance sheet and grants us the financial flexibility to secure more
cost-effective project financing. This is integral as we execute on the secured electrical capacity at our Panther Creek site. Our strong
liquidity profile enables us to take this step now, ensuring we can allocate resources efficiently to maximize the value of our entire
portfolio and continue advancing all our sites to NTP.”
Bitfarms maintains a strong liquidity profile
to support this repayment. As of February 5, 2026, the company holds $698 million in net liquidity, comprised mostly of unrestricted cash
and some bitcoin. This strong liquidity position allows for the full retirement of the debt facility while still maintaining ample capital
availability for ongoing development at the Panther Creek, Washington and Sharon Sites.
Bitfarms entered into the initial agreement for
the debt facility on April 2, 2025 with the intent of providing financing for project development. On October 10, 2025, the facility was
converted to a project-specific financing facility, for the development of Bitfarms’ Panther Creek campus. As of February 4, 2026,
the total amount drawn on the debt facility stood at $100 million. Net of $50 million of restricted cash under the terms of the Macquarie
debt facility, Bitfarms’ net liquidity will decrease by $50 million upon full repayment.
