EXHIBIT 99.1
Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. Executes New Customer Agreement Growing and Expanding Digital Colocation Business
MIDLAND, Pa., Jan. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. (NASDAQ: MIGI) (“Mawson” or “the Company”), a publicly-traded technology company focused on digital infrastructure platforms for artificial intelligence (AI), high-performance computing (HPC), and digital assets markets, today announced that it has signed a new digital colocation customer agreement with a NASDAQ-listed publicly traded company as a customer (“PublicCo”).
The new customer colocation agreement executed between Mawson’s CEO and PublicCo’s CEO on January 3, 2025, is for Mawson to provide PublicCo with digital colocation services for 5,880 miners or approximately 20 MW at Mawson’s facilities. The initial digital colocation customer agreement term is for 12 months, and the parties can extend upon mutual agreement. The digital colocation customer agreement also provides flexibility for future potential capacity expansion.
Rahul Mewawalla, CEO and President, stated, "We are extremely delighted to sign and welcome another enterprise-grade colocation customer and are pleased to announce this new colocation customer agreement, further demonstrating robust growth and expansion of our digital colocation services business. This agreement aligns with our strategy of optimizing our digital infrastructure assets while providing enterprise-class innovative platforms and compute solutions. This is a great way to start off the new year and we are excited about the opportunities ahead of us in 2025."
The customer agreement is for approximately 20 MW of compute capacity at Mawson's facilities and the agreement further strengthens Mawson's position as a leading industry provider of digital infrastructure and colocation services in the attractive PJM market, which is North America’s largest competitive and deregulated wholesale power market.
The PublicCo customer agreement executed in January 2025 further expands Mawson’s digital colocation business and furthers the business’s growth.
Upon completion of this deployment, Mawson expects to operate and manage approximately 41,508 miners and about 5.10 exahashes per second (EH/s) in combined total current operating hashrate (EH) across its facilities.
The Company also has an additional site in Ohio under development which is expected to add an initial 24 MW to the Company’s currently operating 129 MW across its sites, growing the Company’s total operating capacity to 153 MW, upon completion with further potential expansion of its hashrate.
