EXHIBIT 99.1
Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. Executes New Customer Co-Location Agreement
New Customer Agreement for 1,764 miners or approximately 6 MW with Provision for Expansion
Full Deployment Expected to be Completed by Year-end
Once Completed, Mawson expected to have total capacity of 35,624 miners or about 109 MW with hashing capacity of approximately 3.8 EH/s1
PITTSBURGH, Dec. 19, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. (NASDAQ:MIGI) (“Mawson” or the “Company”), a digital infrastructure company, is pleased to announce that the Company has signed a new customer co-location agreement between a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mawson and Krypton Technologies LLC (“Krypton”).
The new customer co-location agreement executed between Mawson’s CEO and Krypton’s Managing Partner on December 13, 2023, is for Mawson to provide Krypton with co-location services for 1,764 miners or approximately 6 MW at Mawson’s Midland, Pennsylvania facilities. Initial co-location customer agreement term is for 12 months, and the parties can extend upon mutual agreement. The co-location customer agreement also provides flexibility for future potential capacity expansion.
Rahul Mewawalla, Mawson’s CEO and President, commented, “We are extremely pleased to sign and welcome another co-location customer, which we expect to contribute further to the growth of our co-location business next year. We are excited about the recent successes in our co-location business combined with the growth we have driven in our self-mining business, along with our increased capabilities in our energy management business, as we look to 2024 ahead.”
David Huang, Managing Partner of Krypton Technologies LLC, stated, “We were impressed with the Mawson facilities and organization, and are looking forward to being a customer of Mawson’s co-location business and their platform capabilities. We are looking forward to working with Mawson on a deployment by year-end and potentially extending our relationship further.”
The Krypton agreement executed in December further increases Mawson’s co-location business in addition to the growth that Mawson’s self-mining business has driven in recent months. In October, Mawson signed a customer co-location agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of Consensus Technology Group LLC (“Consensus”) for Mawson to provide co-location services for 15,876 miners or approximately 50 MW. The Consensus deployment was completed by Mawson in mid-November, and the Krypton deployment is expected to be completed by the end of December. Mawson anticipates its Midland, Pennsylvania facilities operating at a capacity of 100 MW with the combined potential for self-mining and co-location fleets at its Midland facilities comprising approximately 32,900 miners and 3.6 EH/s. In addition to its facilities at Midland, Mawson has other facilities in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, which is used entirely for self-mining purposes. As of the end of November 2023, the Bellefonte facility was operating at approximately 8.8 MW of capacity with approximately 2,720 self-miners hashing. With self-mining and the total co-location platforms combined, Mawson’s facilities are expected to have a capacity of about 109 MW and about 35,624 miners along with a total hashing capacity of approximately 3.8 EH/s.
