HIVE Digital Technologies Surpasses 8 EH/s of Bitcoin Hashrate and Secures ASIC Orders to 25 EH/s
This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated May 14, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated September 11, 2024.
San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - May 15, 2025) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure, is pleased to announce it has surpassed 8.0 Exahash per second (EH/s) of global Bitcoin mining hashrate, marking another key milestone in the Company's strategic expansion toward its 25 EH/s target for in calendar Q4 2025. This rapid growth is being driven by the successful energization of HIVE's recently completed first 100 MW hydro-powered facility in Yguazu, Paraguay. As of today, HIVE reports a total operating hashrate of 8.3 EH/s and remains on track to reach its Phase 1 objective of 11.5 EH/s by the end of June 2025, with additional capacity expected to come online in the weeks ahead. Moreover, HIVE has now fully funded its ASIC orders to grow to 18 EHs in Q3 2025, strategically using it Bitcoin treasury for this rapid growth.
HIVE's second 100 MW in Yguazu, Paraguay, scheduled for completion this summer, will provide the infrastructure for growth from 11.5 EH/s to 18 EH/s. HIVE has further deposits and options to purchase in place for Bitcoin mining ASICs to reach 2025 target of 25 EH/s, with the third 100 MW of Bitcoin mining infrastructure coming online in calendar Q4 2025 in Valenzuela, Paraguay.
Executive Commentary
Frank Holmes, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of HIVE, stated: "We are now well on our way to the 18 EH/s summer target; crossing the 8 EH/s threshold signals our bold momentum forward. Based on current Bitcoin mining rewards, at 18 EH/s, HIVE would be mining approximately 10 Bitcoin per day." Mr. Holmes continued "With Bitcoin over US$100,000, HIVE is positioned to do almost US$1,000,000 in daily revenue by this summer with our fully-funded growth plans. This achievement demonstrates HIVE's ability to responsibly scale operations with green energy while securing the Bitcoin network and driving long-term shareholder value. We are proud to lead the next wave of innovation in digital infrastructure."
Aydin Kilic, President and CEO of HIVE, added: "I am tremendously proud of our global team for executing at such a high level. Since our May 9, 2025 update, we have already added another 1.0 Exahash to bring our total hashrate to 8.3 EH/s. This pace of deployment underscores the strength of our infrastructure strategy and our commitment to operational excellence. We are also increasing our global fleet efficiency. We will be at 20 J/TH globally once we are at 11.5 EH/s before the end of June 2025, and 19 J/TH when we are at 18 EH/s by the end of summer 2025. Overall, this improvement in our global fleet efficiency means less energy will be required per Bitcoin mined, and as we execute on our 300 MW growth in Paraguay, our global cost of power is expected to decrease as well. HIVE estimates its average cost of Bitcoin production to decrease by 10-20% by autumn 2025, based on lower global average energy prices and improved global fleet efficiency."
Strategic Use of Bitcoin Treasury
During the quarter, HIVE strategically deployed a portion of its Bitcoin treasury to acquire next- generation ASIC mining equipment through a special agreement. The Company pledged Bitcoin to settle the purchase at a market price of US$87,000 per BTC and secured an option to repurchase the equivalent amount of Bitcoin at the same price-allowing HIVE a unique opportunity to capture potential upside in BTC price appreciation.
This arrangement enabled HIVE to grow its mining fleet without significant cash outlay or equity dilution, while maintaining Bitcoin exposure through this special agreement. The transaction was structured while Bitcoin prices were under pressure due to a global tariff war, positioning HIVE to continue its growth trajectory while markets stabilize. As of today, HIVE holds 610 BTC in its treasury. The Company's goal is to rebuild its HODL, along with growing its operating Bitcoin mining capacity to 25 EH/s. For context, Bitcoin averaged below US$66,000 for the 2024 calendar year and traded below US$30,000 as
recently as October 2023^1^. Management believes it is prudent to deploy BTC mined at lower prices during the past two Bitcoin cycles to fund strategic growth, while retaining the option to reclaim BTC holdings as prices appreciate.

HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd.: Exhibit 99.3 - Filed by newsfilecorp.com
HIVE Digital Technologies Celebrates Record 9.5 EH/s Milestone, Driving Shareholder Value on Path to 25 EH/s by 2025
This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated May 14, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated September 11, 2024.
San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - May 22, 2025) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE)
(NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure, proudly announces a new all-time high of 9.5 Exahash per second (EH/s) in Bitcoin mining hashrate. This achievement positions HIVE above 1% of the global Bitcoin network and marks a pivotal milestone in a transformative journey dedicated to delivering long-term value for shareholders while advancing toward an ambitious 25 EH/s goal by the end of 2025.
A Journey of Milestones for Shareholders
HIVE's ascent to 9.5 EH/s reflects a series of strategic victories that underscore its commitment to growth and sustainability. From energizing its first 100 MW hydro-powered data center in Yguazú, Paraguay, to surpassing 1% of the global Bitcoin network's hashrate, HIVE's team has exceeded expectations. This milestone translates to mining over 4.5 Bitcoin daily, capturing a meaningful share of the network's rewards and reinforcing HIVE's position as a top-tier player in the blockchain ecosystem.
The Company's progress is driven by a clear vision: to scale responsibly while maximizing shareholder returns. By leveraging 100% renewable energy and state-of-the-art technology, HIVE is building a foundation for sustained growth. The recent acceleration in hashrate, adding roughly 1 EH/s weekly, surpassing earlier projections, demonstrates the team's operational excellence and dedication to delivering results.
Building Momentum for the Future
Achievable, value-driven milestones mark HIVE's roadmap. By June 2025, the Company expects to reach 11.5 EH/s, completing the first phase of its expansion with enhanced energy efficiency. This progress is fueled by ongoing deployments at the Yguazú facility, where new Bitcoin mining equipment is being installed to boost capacity.
Looking ahead, HIVE is preparing to launch a second 100 MW facility in Yguazú by summer 2025, targeting 18 EH/s and aiming to capture 2% of the global network. The journey will culminate with a third 100 MW campus in Valenzuela, Paraguay, set to drive HIVE to its 25 EH/s target by Q4 2025. Each step forward strengthens HIVE's competitive edge, ensuring greater efficiency and profitability for shareholders.
Leadership Perspectives
Frank Holmes, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of HIVE, stated: "Our journey is about creating lasting value for our shareholders. The team, led by Country President Gabriel Lamas in Paraguay, has outperformed expectations, scaling our operations at an unprecedented pace. These milestones are not just numbers-they represent our commitment to building a sustainable, high-growth company. We're setting the stage for an extraordinary 2025."
Aydin Kilic, President and CEO of HIVE, added: "Hitting 9.5 EH/s is a testament to our strategic focus and execution. We're mining a significant share of Bitcoin's daily rewards, and our growth trajectory positions us to double our network share by the end of summer. For our shareholders, this means a stronger, more resilient HIVE, ready to thrive in a dynamic market."

HIVE Digital Technologies Celebrates Record 9.5 EH/s Milestone, Driving Shareholder Value on Path to 25 EH/s by 2025
This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated May 14, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated September 11, 2024.
San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - May 22, 2025) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure, proudly announces a new all-time high of 9.5 Exahash per second (EH/s) in Bitcoin mining hashrate. This achievement positions HIVE above 1% of the global Bitcoin network and marks a pivotal milestone in a transformative journey dedicated to delivering long-term value for shareholders while advancing toward an ambitious 25 EH/s goal by the end of 2025.
A Journey of Milestones for Shareholders
HIVE's ascent to 9.5 EH/s reflects a series of strategic victories that underscore its commitment to growth and sustainability. From energizing its first 100 MW hydro-powered data center in Yguazú, Paraguay, to surpassing 1% of the global Bitcoin network's hashrate, HIVE's team has exceeded expectations. This milestone translates to mining over 4.5 Bitcoin daily, capturing a meaningful share of the network's rewards and reinforcing HIVE's position as a top-tier player in the blockchain ecosystem.
The Company's progress is driven by a clear vision: to scale responsibly while maximizing shareholder returns. By leveraging 100% renewable energy and state-of-the-art technology, HIVE is building a foundation for sustained growth. The recent acceleration in hashrate, adding roughly 1 EH/s weekly, surpassing earlier projections, demonstrates the team's operational excellence and dedication to delivering results.
Building Momentum for the Future
Achievable, value-driven milestones mark HIVE's roadmap. By June 2025, the Company expects to reach 11.5 EH/s, completing the first phase of its expansion with enhanced energy efficiency. This progress is fueled by ongoing deployments at the Yguazú facility, where new Bitcoin mining equipment is being installed to boost capacity.
Looking ahead, HIVE is preparing to launch a second 100 MW facility in Yguazú by summer 2025, targeting 18 EH/s and aiming to capture 2% of the global network. The journey will culminate with a third 100 MW campus in Valenzuela, Paraguay, set to drive HIVE to its 25 EH/s target by Q4 2025. Each step forward strengthens HIVE's competitive edge, ensuring greater efficiency and profitability for shareholders.
Leadership Perspectives
Frank Holmes, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of HIVE, stated: "Our journey is about creating lasting value for our shareholders. The team, led by Country President Gabriel Lamas in Paraguay, has outperformed expectations, scaling our operations at an unprecedented pace. These milestones are not just numbers-they represent our commitment to building a sustainable, high-growth company. We're setting the stage for an extraordinary 2025."
Aydin Kilic, President and CEO of HIVE, added: "Hitting 9.5 EH/s is a testament to our strategic focus and execution. We're mining a significant share of Bitcoin's daily rewards, and our growth trajectory positions us to double our network share by the end of summer. For our shareholders, this means a stronger, more resilient HIVE, ready to thrive in a dynamic market."
