Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Bit Digital completed an offering of its subsidiary WhiteFiber, which sold 9,375,000 ordinary shares at $17.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of $159,375,000 before underwriting discounts and offering expenses. All offered shares were sold by WhiteFiber and, after the offering, Bit Digital holds approximately 74.3% of WhiteFiber’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares. A 30-day underwriter option for up to 1,406,250 additional shares, if exercised in full, would reduce Bit Digital’s ownership to approximately 71.5%.

Bit Digital contributed its HPC business to WhiteFiber in exchange for 27,043,749 WhiteFiber ordinary shares. The Contribution transferred assets primarily related to the HPC business to WhiteFiber while WhiteFiber’s liabilities and certain WhiteFiber-related assets were allocated as described; other Bit Digital assets and liabilities were retained by Bit Digital. Assets were transferred on an "as is, where is" basis with limited representations and warranties.

Bit Digital and WhiteFiber entered into a Transition Services Agreement under which Bit Digital will provide specified finance, tax, legal, HR, IT, insurance and other administrative services at cost, with WhiteFiber estimating average fees of approximately $155,000 per month (exclusive of share-based compensation). The services term generally extends up to 24 months, and each party indemnifies the other for material breaches and certain misconduct while excluding liability for indirect or consequential damages.

Bit Digital ha completato un'offerta della sua controllata WhiteFiber, che ha venduto 9,375,000 azioni ordinarie a $17.00 per azione, generando proventi lordi di $159,375,000 prima degli sconti di sottoscrizione e delle spese dell'offerta. Tutte le azioni offerte sono state vendute da WhiteFiber e, dopo l'offerta, Bit Digital detiene circa il 74,3% delle azioni ordinarie emesse e in circolazione di WhiteFiber. Un'opzione di sottoscrizione di 30 giorni per fino a 1,406,250 azioni aggiuntive, se esercitata per intero, ridurrebbe la partecipazione di Bit Digital a circa il 71,5%.

Bit Digital ha conferito il proprio business HPC a WhiteFiber in cambio di 27,043,749 azioni ordinarie di WhiteFiber. Il conferimento ha trasferito ad WhiteFiber principalmente attività correlate al business HPC, mentre le passività di WhiteFiber e talune attività correlate a WhiteFiber sono state allocate come descritto; le altre attività e passività di Bit Digital sono rimaste in capo a Bit Digital. Gli asset sono stati trasferiti "as is, where is" con rappresentazioni e garanzie limitate.

Insights

TL;DR: The spin and IPO separate the HPC business into a public company, raising meaningful capital while Bit Digital retains a majority stake.

The offering of 9,375,000 shares at $17 for gross proceeds of $159,375,000 establishes WhiteFiber as a publicly listed vehicle for the contributed HPC business. Bit Digital received 27,043,749 WhiteFiber shares in the Contribution and remains the majority holder at ~74.3%, preserving control while monetizing part of the business through a carve-out.

Key structural elements for investors include the underwriter option (1,406,250 shares) that could dilute Bit Digital to ~71.5%, the "as is" asset transfers with limited reps and warranties that shift conveyance risk to the transferees, and the Transition Services Agreement that preserves operational continuity. These terms are material to valuation and integration risk assessments.

TL;DR: The transaction injects $159.4M into the newly public WhiteFiber, leaves Bit Digital with majority equity, and allocates operational continuity via a paid TSA.

From a financial standpoint, WhiteFiber raised $159,375,000 in gross proceeds from its IPO of 9,375,000 shares at $17.00 per share. Bit Digital’s post-transaction holding of ~74.3% (potentially ~71.5% if overallotment is exercised) keeps consolidation and related-party considerations relevant for BTBT reporting.

The Contribution exchanged Bit Digital’s HPC subsidiaries for 27,043,749 WhiteFiber shares and allocated assets and liabilities between the entities. The Transition Services Agreement estimates average fees of ~ $155,000 per month (excluding share-based pay) for up to 24 months, which provides predictable near-term cost recovery but also creates related-party cash flows to monitor.

Initial Public Offering

 

On August 8, 2025, WhiteFiber, Inc. (“WhiteFiber”), a subsidiary of Bit Digital, Inc. (the “Company”), completed its initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 9,375,000 ordinary shares, at a public offering price of $17.00 per share. All ordinary shares in the Offering were sold by WhiteFiber. The gross proceeds to WhiteFiber from the Offering were $159,375,000, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by WhiteFiber.

 

Prior to the consummation of the Offering, the Company held all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of WhiteFiber. After giving effect to the Offering, the Company holds approximately 74.3% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of WhiteFiber.

 

WhiteFiber granted a 30-day option to the underwriters of the Offering to purchase up to 1,406,250 additional WhiteFiber ordinary shares. If the underwriters exercise this option in full, the Company will hold approximately 71.5% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of WhiteFiber

 

Contribution Agreement

 

Prior to the consummation of the Offering, the Company entered into a contribution agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) with WhiteFiber, pursuant to which the Company contributed its HPC business through the transfer of 100% of the capital shares of its cloud services subsidiary, WhiteFiber AI, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries WhiteFiber HPC, Inc., WhiteFiber Canada, Inc., WhiteFiber Japan G.K. and WhiteFiber Iceland, ehf, to WhiteFiber in exchange for 27,043,749 ordinary shares of WhiteFiber (the “Contribution”). The Contribution became effective on August 6, 2025, when the registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. No. 333-288650) (the “Registration Statement”), of WhiteFiber was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Pursuant to the Contribution the following actions occurred:

assets (whether tangible or intangible) primarily related to, or included on the balance sheet of, WhiteFiber and its combined subsidiaries, which are referred to as the “WhiteFiber Assets,” were transferred to WhiteFiber, as applicable, generally including:
ocustomer, distribution, supply and vendor contracts (or portions thereof) to the extent they relate to WhiteFiber;
ocertain third-party vendor contracts for services primarily related to WhiteFiber;
orights to technology, software and intellectual property primarily related to WhiteFiber;
oexclusive rights to information exclusively related to WhiteFiber and nonexclusive rights to information related to WhiteFiber;
orights and assets expressly allocated to WhiteFiber’s subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement (as defined below) or certain other agreements entered into in connection with the separation and reorganization;
opermits used by WhiteFiber; and
oother assets that are included in WhiteFiber’s pro forma balance sheet, as set forth in the Registration Statement;
liabilities primarily related to, or included on the balance sheet of, WhiteFiber, which are referred to as “WhiteFiber’s Liabilities,” were retained by or transferred to the Company, as applicable; and
all of the assets and liabilities (including whether accrued, contingent, or otherwise) other than the WhiteFiber Assets and WhiteFiber Liabilities (such assets and liabilities, other than the WhiteFiber Assets and the WhiteFiber Liabilities, referred to as the “Bit Digital Assets” and “Bit Digital Liabilities,” respectively) were retained by or transferred to the Company, as applicable.

 

Except as expressly set forth in the Contribution Agreement or any ancillary agreement, neither WhiteFiber nor the Company makes any representation or warranty as to (1) the assets, business or liabilities transferred or assumed as part of the Contribution, (2) any approvals or notifications required in connection with the transfers, (3) the value of or the freedom from any security interests of any of the assets transferred, (4) the absence or presence of any defenses or right of setoff or freedom from counterclaim with respect to any claim or other asset of either WhiteFiber or the Company, or (5) the legal sufficiency of any assignment, document or instrument delivered to convey title to any asset or thing of value to be transferred in connection with the Reorganization. All assets were transferred on an “as is,” “where is” basis, and the respective transferees will bear the economic and legal risks that any conveyance will prove to be insufficient to vest in the transferee good and marketable title, free and clear of all security interests, and that any necessary consents or governmental approvals are not obtained or that any requirements of laws, agreements, security interests or judgments are not complied with.

 

The Contribution Agreement is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the foregoing description thereof is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Contribution Agreement and the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein.

 

 

 

Transition Services Agreement

 

In addition, prior to the consummation of the Offering, the Company entered into a transition services agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement”) with WhiteFiber, pursuant to which the Company will provide certain services to WhiteFiber, on a transitional basis. The Transition Services Agreement provides for the performance of certain services by the Company for the benefit of WhiteFiber, or in some cases certain services provided by WhiteFiber for the benefit of the Company, for a limited period of time after the Offering. The services to be provided will include financial reporting, tax, legal, human resources, information technology, insurance and other general and administrative functions.
