 RISK FACTOR SUMMARY
 Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, which illuminate challenges that we face in connection with the successful implementation of our strategy and the growth of our business. The following considerations, among others, may offset our competitive strengths or have a negative effect on our business strategy, which could adversely impact our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, our ability to meet our long-term debt obligations, or cause a decline in the price of our Class A common stock:
 • We have experienced financial difficulties and an investment in our common stock is highly speculative. Holders of our common stock could suffer a total loss of their investment.
 • We may need to raise additional capital to grow our business and may not be able to do so on favorable terms, if at all. Future issuances of equity or debt securities may adversely affect the value of our common stock.
 • We may not have sufficient resources to repay our 8.50% Senior Notes due 2026 upon their maturity in October 2026, and we will face additional risks if we incur additional indebtedness.
 • We have a history of operating losses. If we are unable to sustain greater revenues than our operating costs and support our expansion plans, we may continue to experience operating losses, which could negatively impact our results of operations, strategy and financial performance.
 • If we fail to comply, or regain compliance, with the Nasdaq continued listing standards, Nasdaq may delist our Class A common stock.
 • We have material environmental liabilities, and the costs of compliance with existing and new environmental laws could have a material adverse effect on us.
 • We are exposed to customer concentration risk, substantially dependent on our sole hosting services customer, and exposed to counterparty nonperformance risk for our hosting services arrangement.

 • It may take significant time, expenditure, or effort for us to grow our business, including our bitcoin datacenter operations, through acquisitions, which we must effectively integrate and manage and which may present unanticipated liabilities or challenges, and our efforts may not be successful.
 • We have experienced turnover in our senior management team and reduced our headcount in 2023 and 2024. If we fail to retain key talent or are unable to attract and retain other qualified personnel, our results of operations, strategy, and financial performance could be adversely affected.
 • We have been, are currently, and may be in the future, the subject of legal proceedings, administrative proceedings and inquiries, audits, or probes conducted by various government agencies or regulatory bodies.
 • Our revenues are largely dependent on the single natural gas power generation facility that we operate. Any disruption to our single power plant, or a substantial portion of our other limited sources of revenues, would have a material adverse effect on our business and operations, as well as our results of operations and financial condition.
 • We may not be able to compete effectively against other companies, some of whom have greater resources and experience.
 • As the aggregate amount of computing power, or hashrate, in the bitcoin network increases, the amount of bitcoin earned per unit of hashrate decreases; as a result, in order to maintain our market share, we may have to incur significant capital expenditures to expand our fleet of miners.
 • Our future success will depend significantly on the price of bitcoin, which is subject to risk and has historically been subject to wide swings and significant volatility.
 • The bitcoin reward for successfully uncovering a block will halve several times in the future and bitcoin value may not adjust to compensate us for the reduction in the rewards we receive from our bitcoin mining efforts;
 • The digital asset exchanges on which cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, trade are relatively new and largely unregulated, and thus may be exposed to fraud and business failure, as demonstrated by recent shutdowns of certain digital asset exchanges and trading platforms, which has negatively impacted confidence in the digital asset industry as a whole. Such failures may result in a reduction in the price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and can adversely affect an investment in us.
 • The properties utilized by us in our cryptocurrency datacenter and hosting may experience damage, including damage not covered by insurance.
 • While no formal regulations have been proposed to classify bitcoin as a security, if regulatory changes or interpretations classify bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies as investment securities, and we hold a significant portion of our assets in bitcoin or acquire and hold such other cryptocurrencies, we may inadvertently violate the Investment Company Act or other securities laws. We could incur large losses to modify our operations to avoid the need to register as an investment company or could incur significant expenses to register as an investment company or could terminate operations altogether.
 • Regulatory changes or actions may alter the nature of an investment in us or restrict the use of bitcoin in a manner that adversely affects our business prospects, results of operations, and financial condition.
 • We are subject to risks related to Internet disruptions, which could have an adverse effect on our ability to host bitcoin miners and to mine bitcoin.
 • Maintenance, expansion, and refurbishment of power generation facilities involve significant risks that could result in unplanned power outages or reduced output and could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.
 • Banks and financial institutions may not provide bank accounts, or may cut off certain banking or other financial services, to cryptocurrency investors or businesses that engage in bitcoin-related activities or that accept bitcoin as payment.
 • The impact of geopolitical and economic events on the supply and demand for bitcoin is uncertain.
 • Bitcoin miners and other necessary hardware are subject to malfunction, technological obsolescence, the global supply chain, and difficulty and cost in obtaining new hardware.

 • We are exposed to the impact of market price changes in bitcoin on our bitcoin holdings.

 • We may not adequately respond to rapidly changing technology.
 • A failure to properly monitor and upgrade the bitcoin network protocol could damage the bitcoin network which could, in turn, have an adverse effect on our business.
 • Over time, incentives for bitcoin miners to continue to contribute processing power to the bitcoin network may transition from a set reward to transaction fees. If the incentives for bitcoin mining are not sufficiently high, we may not have an adequate incentive to continue datacenter operations.
 • Our operations and financial performance may be impacted by fuel supply disruptions, price fluctuations in the wholesale power and natural gas markets, and fluctuations in other market factors that are beyond our control.
 The risks described above should be read together with the text of the full risk factors described in Item 1A, "Risk Factors" and the other information set forth in this report, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes, as well as in other documents that we file with Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Our business, prospects, results of operations or financial condition could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial. Certain statements in "Risk Factors" are forward-looking statements. See "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" above.

 ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
 Overview
 We are a developer and operator of datacenters focused on cryptocurrency mining and infrastructure development. We currently build, maintain and operate data centers focused on bitcoin mining, along with related power and electric infrastructure. We generate revenue from (1) datacenter hosting, (2) cryptocurrency self-mining, and (3) power and capacity sales. We are focused on utilizing our power generation and datacenter operation expertise to connect datacenter power demand with stranded electrical assets through the identification and development of new datacenter sites.

 We own and operate a vertically integrated cryptocurrency datacenter and power generation facility in Torrey, New York (the "New York Facility"), with an approximately 106 megawatt ("MW") nameplate capacity natural gas power generation plant. In 2024, we expanded our operations through the purchase of 12 acres of land in Columbus, Mississippi with 73,000 square feet of industrial warehouse space (the "Mississippi Facility"), which provided us with access to an additional 32.5 MW of power capacity. In the second quarter of 2024, we deployed 7 MW of miners for use in self-mining at the Mississippi Facility. Additionally, we added 7.5 MW of self-mining capacity through a five-year lease which provides us with energy access to power mining. To maximize our hashrate capacity, we have deployed, and may continue to deploy, excess miners in our fleet to third-party hosted sites under short-term arrangements.
 Recent Developments
 South Carolina Facility Transactions
 On November 9, 2023, we closed the sale of our facility in Spartanburg, South Carolina (the "South Carolina Facility") to NYDIG ABL LLC ("NYDIG") to complete a deleveraging transaction. In exchange for selling our upgraded 44 MW South Carolina mining facilities and approximately 22 acres of subdivided real estate to NYDIG, we received total consideration of $28 million, as follows:

 • The remaining principal balance of $17.7 million on our Senior Secured Loan with NYDIG, entered into on January 30, 2023, was extinguished;

 • The remaining principal balance of $4.1 million on our Secured Promissory Note, originally issued to B. Riley Commercial Capital, LLC on March 18, 2022, and later purchased by NYDIG at par on July 20, 2023, was extinguished;

 • A cash payment of approximately $4.5 million; and

 • A bonus payment of approximately $1.6 million as a result of the completion of the upgraded mining facility expansion and its uptime performance.

 The Company recognized a gain on the sale of the South Carolina Facility of $8.2 million. Subsequent to such sale, we retained 152 acres of land for development.

 On November 27, 2024, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell the remaining 152 acres to Data Journey LLC ("Data Journey") for $12.1 million in cash and an 8% profit participation interest in the property's planned data center. We expect the sale to close in 2025.
 Infinite Reality, Inc. Equity Exchange Agreement
 On December 11, 2023, we entered into an Equity Exchange Agreement (the "Equity Exchange Agreement") with Infinite Reality, Inc. ("Infinite Reality"), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) we issued to Infinite Reality a one-year warrant to purchase 180,000 shares of our Class A common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share (the "1-Year Warrant"), the proceeds of which, upon exercise, are required to be used for the development of a proposed new data center contemplated by a Master Services Agreement entered into between us and Infinite Reality on December 11, 2023, and (ii) we issued 180,000 shares of our Class A common stock to Infinite Reality, which shares will not be registered with the SEC. The shares of Class A common stock issued under the Equity Exchange Agreement and that may be issued pursuant

 to the exercise of the 1-Year Warrant were offered and sold in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act, in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. On December 11, 2024, the 1-Year Warrant expired unexercised.
 In exchange for issuing the 1-Year Warrant and Class A common stock, we received (i) a one-year warrant to purchase 235,754 shares of Infinite Reality's common stock at an exercise price of $5.35 per share (the "Infinite Reality Warrant") and (ii) 280,374 shares of Infinite Reality's common stock. The Infinite Reality Warrant was automatically exercise on a net settlement basis immediately prior to expiration on December 11, 2024. As of the date of this Annual Report, we have not received the exercised shares in connection with the Infinite Reality Warrant.
 Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. Securities Purchase Agreement
 On February 12, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Armistice SPA") with Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. ("Armistice"). Pursuant to the Armistice SPA, Armistice purchased (i) 450,300 shares of our Class A common stock (the "SPA Shares"), and (ii) a pre-funded warrant (the "Pre-Funded Warrant") to purchase 810,205 shares of our Class A common stock (the "Pre-Funded Warrant Shares"). The per share purchase price of the SPA Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares was $4.76, resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of $6.0 million, and after giving effect to the exercise price of $0.0001 per Pre-Funded Warrant Share, we received net proceeds of $6.0 million. In addition, we issued to Armistice a five-year warrant (the "5-Year Warrant") to purchase up to 1,260,505 shares of Class A common stock, exercisable commencing on August 14, 2024 at an exercise price of $5.25 per share (the "Warrant Shares"). During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued 810,205 upon receiving notice of exercise in connection with the Pre-Funded Warrant. As of the date of this Annual Report, the 5-Year Warrant remains unexercised.
 Pursuant to the Armistice SPA, we were obligated to file a resale registration statement covering the SPA Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, and the Warrant Shares no later than ten (10) days after filing of our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2023.
 The SPA Shares and the shares of Class A common stock issued pursuant to the Pre-Funded Warrant and issuable pursuant to the 5-Year Warrant were offered and sold in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act, in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

 Mississippi Expansion
 On April 10, 2024, we closed on the purchase of a parcel of land containing approximately 12 acres located in Columbus, Mississippi, including over 73,000 square feet of industrial warehouse space (the "Columbus Property"). The Columbus Property provides us with access to 32.5 MW of additional power capacity and we deployed 7 MW of miners on the Columbus Property in the second quarter of 2024. We have also deployed additional miners in conjunction with a 7.5 MW mining capacity lease in North Dakota, which has a term of five years and provides us with energy to power mining.
 Launch of Pod X Portable Mining Solution
 In July 2024, we announced the launch of our Pod X portable cryptocurrency mining infrastructure solution, which is deployed at our facilities across the United States and reflects a culmination of our experience in maintaining optimal temperature control and uptime using portable mining equipment.
 Common Stock Purchase Agreement with B. Riley Principal Capital II, LLC
 On July 30, 2024, we entered into a common stock purchase agreement (the "Common Stock Purchase Agreement") with B. Riley Principal Capital II, LLC, "B. Riley Principal II"), an affiliate of B. Riley Principal Capital, LLC ("B. Riley Principal"). Pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, we have the right to sell to B. Riley Principal II up to $20 million in shares of its Class A common stock, subject to certain limitations and the satisfaction of specified conditions in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, from time to time over the 36-month period commencing September 24, 2024.
 In connection with the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, we entered into a registration rights agreement with B. Riley Principal II, pursuant to which we agreed to prepare and file a registration statement registering the resale by B. Riley Principal II of those shares of our Class A common stock to be issued under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. The registration statement became effective on September 24, 2024 (the "Effective Date"), relating to the resale of 7,300,000 shares of Greenidge's Class A common stock in connection with the Common Stock Purchase Agreement.

 From the Effective Date through March 25, 2025, we issued 1,595,855 shares under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement for net proceeds of $4.3 million, of which all shares were issued and net proceeds were received during the year ended December 31, 2024.
 Announcement of Bitcoin Self-Mining Retention Strategy
 On August 1, 2024, we announced our new bitcoin self-mining retention strategy, which enables us to accumulate bitcoin from our owned miners in order to increase our bitcoin holdings.
 Privately Negotiated Debt Exchange Agreements
 During the fourth quarter of 2024, we entered into privately negotiated exchange agreements, pursuant to which we issued shares of our Class A common stock in exchange for principal amounts of our Senior Notes. From the date of the first exchange to the date of this Annual Report, we issued 1,335,889 shares of our Class A common stock in exchange for $5.5 million aggregate principal amount of our Senior Notes, of which 692,433 shares were exchanged for $3.7 million aggregate principal amount of our Senior Notes during the year ended December 31, 2024. Such transactions were exempt from registration under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.
 Equity Interest Payment Agreement
 On January 24, 2025, we entered into an Equity Interest Payment Agreement, that as consideration for Atlas' continued credit support with respect to letters of credit it maintains, we agreed to pay interest at a rate of 8.5% per annum. Payments will be made by issuing shares of our Class A common stock, with the total cumulative shares not to exceed 19.99% of the sum of the number of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding. Subsequent payments will then be made in cash. In connection with the Equity Interest Payment Agreement, we agreed to pay, by issuing shares of our Class A common stock, a letter of credit extension payment as further consideration for Atlas to enter into the Equity Interest Payment Agreement and maintain the letters of credit. From the effective date to the date of this Annual Report, we issued 752,742 shares of Class A common stock to settle the letter of credit extension payment.
 Growth Opportunities
 We view our growth opportunities as primarily related to the following areas:
 • Acquisition of properties with low-cost power
 • Development of owned properties for artificial intelligence ("AI")/graphics processing unit ("GPU") data center, bitcoin self-mining and bitcoin hosting
 • Sale of owned properties for AI/GPU data center construction
 • Infrastructure services and development for AI and high-performance computing ("HPC")
 • Purchase and deployment of GPUs for AI and HPC
 • Engineering Procurement and Construction Management ("EPCM") contracts
 • Purchase and deployment of high efficiency bitcoin mining rigs
 • Hosting services for bitcoin mining
 • Acquisition of private bitcoin mining companies
 The Company is actively pursuing the acquisition of additional properties with access to low-cost power and appropriate size to allow for efficient expansion of AI/GPU data centers and/or bitcoin mining facilities, such as the Columbus Property. The growth of AI and HPC will provide significant demand for development of future data centers utilizing large amounts of energy. We currently have significant infrastructure on hand to reduce the cost of site development for various future projects. All current and future properties will be simultaneously evaluated for internal development or outright sales.
 The Company is continuing to develop and market its EPCM services in order to provide greater short-term growth. We believe feedback from previous and current clients has shown that we offer a superior product with respect to the development of bitcoin mining facilities.
 We will also continue to evaluate the benefits of finding accretive acquisitions, specifically in the bitcoin mining sector.

 Products and Services
 NYDIG Hosting Agreement. On January 30, 2023, we entered into hosting services agreements and related orders with affiliates of NYDIG (collectively as in effect from time to time, the "NYDIG Hosting Agreement"). Under the NYDIG Hosting Agreement, we agreed to host, power, and provide technical support services, and other related services, to NYDIG affiliates' mining equipment at the New York Facility for a term of five years. The terms of such arrangements require NYDIG affiliates to pay a reimbursement fee that covers the cost of power and direct costs associated with management of the mining facilities, a hosting fee as well as a gross profit-sharing arrangement. Under the NYDIG Hosting Agreement, NYDIG affiliates are required to provide us an upfront security deposit, pay a configuration fee for the setup of new or relocated miners, and pay for repairs and parts consumed in non-routine maintenance (i.e., units that are out of service for more than 12 hours). We are required to pay NYDIG a portion of capacity revenue, as well as a portion of the gross margin from any energy sales in excess of mining requirement. Additionally, when market conditions dictate shutting down mining and making market sales of energy, we are required to pay NYDIG the expected value that it would have received as if the cryptocurrency datacenter had operated and a portion of gross margin from energy sales above normal mining requirements. This allows us to participate in the upside as bitcoin prices rise, but reduces our downside risk of bitcoin price deterioration and cost increases related to natural gas.

 Cryptocurrency Mining. Our cryptocurrency datacenter operations generate revenue in the form of bitcoin by earning bitcoin as rewards and transaction fees for supporting the global bitcoin network with application-specific integrated circuit computers ("ASICs" or "miners") owned or leased by us. We currently contribute our hashrate to a single mining pool, subject to their terms of service. Such participation is generally terminable at any time by either party, and our risk is limited by our ability to switch pools at any time or simply not to participate in any pools and mine independently. In exchange for providing computing power, we receive a share of the theoretical global mining rewards based on our percent contribution to the bitcoin mining network, less fees payable to the pool. The mining pool in which we currently participate allocates their bitcoin to us on a daily basis.
 From time to time we have deployed excess miners at third-party sites through short-term hosting contracts.

 Our datacenter operations consist of approximately 30,700 miners with a combined capacity of approximately 3.3 EH/s for both datacenter hosting and cryptocurrency mining, of which 18,200 miners, or 1.8 EH/s, are associated with datacenter hosting and 12,500 miners, or 1.5 EH/s, are associated with cryptocurrency mining.
 Mining Pool Participation
 A significant portion of the global hashrate on the bitcoin network has been contributed to a number of "mining pools." In a typical bitcoin mining pool, groups of miners combine their resources, or hashrate, and earn bitcoin together. Mining pools help to smooth the variability of the revenue stream of individual miners by combining the hashrate from multiple miners and then paying each miner a pro rata share of the aggregate bitcoin rewards generated by the combined pool.
 The mining pool operator is typically paid a fee for maintaining the pool. Miners who participate in mining pools are expected to earn their pro rata share of the global bitcoin rewards received by all miners on the bitcoin network, less any fees paid to the mining pool operator.
 We contribute our hashrate to a single mining pool, subject to their terms of service. Such participation is generally terminable at any time by either party, and our risk is limited by our ability to switch pools at any time or simply not to participate in any pools and mine independently. In exchange for providing computing power, we receive a share of the theoretical global mining rewards based on our percent contribution to the bitcoin mining network, less fees payable to the pool. The mining pools in which we currently participate allocate their bitcoin to us on a daily basis.
 Power and Capacity Sales. We own and operate a 106 MW power generation facility that is connected to the New York Independent Systems Operator (the "NYISO"), which operates New York state's power grid. We sell electricity to the NYISO at all times when the plant is running and we increase or decrease the amount of electricity sold based on prevailing prices in the wholesale electricity market and demand for electricity. Based upon levels of demand and prevailing prices for electricity, we may temporarily curtail our cryptocurrency hosting and self-mining located at our power generation facility in order to meet the demand for electricity. Revenue generated from the wholesale power market is variable and depends on several factors including but not limited to the supply and demand for electricity, generation capacity in the market and the prevailing price of natural gas. In addition, we receive revenues from the sale of our capacity and ancillary services in the NYISO wholesale market. Through these sales, we generate three revenue streams:

 Energy revenue: When dispatched by the NYISO, we receive energy revenue based on the hourly price of power.
 Capacity revenue: We receive capacity revenue for committing to sell power to the NYISO when dispatched.
 Ancillary services revenue: When selected by the NYISO, we receive compensation for the provision of operating reserves.
 Our datacenter operations in New York are powered by electricity generated directly by our power plant, which is referred to as "behind-the-meter" power as it is not subject to transmission and distribution charges from local utilities. As of December 31, 2024, our owned and customer hosted miners at the New York Facility had the capacity to consume approximately 60 MW of electricity. We have approval from NYISO to utilize 64 MW of electricity behind-the-meter.
 Additionally, we have a contract with Empire Pipeline Inc., which provides for the firm transportation to our pipeline of up to 15,000 dekatherms of natural gas per day. The natural gas is transported to our captive lateral pipeline through which this gas is transported 4.6 miles to our power plant. We have contracts with Emera Energy covering both the purchase of natural gas and the bidding and sale of electricity through the NYISO.
 These sales accounted for approximately 18% and 9% of our total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
 Cryptocurrency Datacenter Industry Trends
 Bitcoin Network Changes
 The price of bitcoin experienced significant volatility throughout 2024, primarily driven by the approval of bitcoin spot Exchange Traded Funds ("ETFs") in January 2024 and renewed optimism regarding cryptocurrencies following the results of the U.S. presidential election. The rise in the price of bitcoin led to a significant expansion of bitcoin mining operations and an increase to the total hashrate on the bitcoin network. This heightened competition within the industry is expected to continue as long as prices remain elevated.
 Network difficulty, which is a measure of how hard it is for miners to solve a block on the bitcoin blockchain and earn mining rewards, is directly tied to the network's total hashrate (or the total computational power devoted to solving a block). This difficulty is adjusted every 2,016 blocks (with a new block being added approximately every 10 minutes. As more miners join the network and the network's global hashrate increases, its difficulty increases, which adversely affects our total revenue. Conversely, when miners leave the network and its global hashrate decreases, its difficulty decreases. Historically, we have observed that during sustained increases in bitcoin's market price (as seen throughout 2024), new miners enter the bitcoin network, driving up its network hashrate and subsequently increasing network difficulty.

 Accordingly, as market prices for bitcoin rise and more miners join the bitcoin network, increasing the total hashrate, network difficulty and competition will continue to grow. As a result, existing miners like us will need to increase our hashrate to maintain and improve our chances of earning bitcoin mining rewards.
 April 2024 Halving Event
 Halving is a mechanism designed to regulate the total supply, and mitigate inflation, of cryptocurrencies using a proof of work consensus algorithm. At a predetermined block, the bitcoin mining reward is cut in half, hence the term "halving." This is fixed, preprogrammed event occurs approximately every four years. The most recent halving for bitcoin occurred on April 19, 2024 at block 840,000, reducing the mining reward to 3.125 bitcoin. This reduction in mining rewards has a direct impact on the supply of bitcoin in the market and, if increases in prices as a result of the supply changes do not fully offset the reduction in rewards, it can negatively impact bitcoin mining revenue.

 Digital Assets Custody
 Our bitcoin is held in cold-storage and trading wallets by Coinbase, Inc., a well-known U.S.-based third-party digital asset-focused custodian, on behalf of itself, Coinbase Custody Trust Company, LLC, and, if applicable, Coinbase Credit, Inc. ("Coinbase Credit," and collectively with Coinbase and Coinbase Custody, the "Coinbase Entities"). We may also sell our bitcoin using our Custodian's U.S. brokerage services. The cold storage wallets in which our bitcoin are held are located in the United States. Any of our funds that may be held by the Custodian are legally segregated at the account, sub-account, and on-chain wallet address level. Digital Assets credited to the Trading Balance are held in one of three ways: (i) in omnibus hot wallets (each, an "Omnibus Hot Wallet"); (ii) in omnibus cold wallets (each, an "Omnibus Cold Wallet"); and (iii) in Coinbase's accounts with the Connected Trading Venues ("Coinbase Connected Trading Venue Digital Asset

 Balance"). While we believe that our custodial agreement provides our business with reasonable protections for our operations and the safe storage of our digital assets, there can be no assurance that storing our digital assets with the Custodian is free from risk. To the best of our knowledge, Coinbase safely stores our digital assets in segregated accounts as represented in the Coinbase Prime Broker Agreement; however, if the Custodian were to be in breach of its agreement, our digital assets could be compromised. Similarly, if the Custodian were to cease operations, declare insolvency or file for bankruptcy, there is a reasonable risk that recovery of our assets, despite being kept in segregated accounts, could be delayed or unrecoverable. For further discussion of our custodial agreements, see Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this Annual Report.

 Applicable insolvency law is not fully developed with respect to the holding of digital assets in custodial accounts. If our custodied bitcoin were considered to be the property of the Custodian's estate in the event that the Custodian were to enter bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings, there is a risk that we could be treated as a general unsecured creditor of the Custodian, inhibiting our ability to access our bitcoin. Even if we are able to prevent our bitcoin from being considered the property of the Custodian's bankruptcy estate as part of an insolvency proceeding, it is possible that we would still be delayed or may otherwise experience difficulty in accessing our bitcoin held by the Custodian during the pendency of the insolvency proceedings. To our knowledge, the Custodian has not petitioned for bankruptcy protection, been declared insolvent or bankrupt, made any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or had a receiver appointed for its assets, at any point while we have been a customer. Further, none of our bitcoin was, as of the time of filing this Annual Report, custodied with any entity that has petitioned for bankruptcy protection, been declared bankrupt or insolvent, made any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or had a receiver appointed for its assets. The recent bankruptcies in the crypto industry and failures of certain financial institutions have not resulted in any loss or misappropriation of any of our bitcoin nor have such events impacted our access to any of our bitcoin.

 We are not aware of our Custodian's experiencing excessive redemptions or withdrawals, or having suspended redemptions or withdrawals, of any customer assets (bitcoin, crypto, or otherwise). Further, we have not experienced any loss of, or access to, our bitcoin custodied with our Custodian, we have never been unable to account for such bitcoin assets, and we are not aware of our Custodian having ever been unable to account for our bitcoin assets or the crypto assets of its other customers.

 To the extent we sell any of our bitcoin custodied with the Custodian, these transactions are done through the Custodian's U.S. brokerage services, which are registered with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network ("FinCEN") and hold NYDFS Bitlicenses. Such brokered sales are made primarily through market-making transactions with institutional grade investors. While we do not know the identity of the purchasers in such brokered sales of our bitcoin, our Custodian has made all customary representations to us regarding its compliance with all Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering regulations applicable to such brokered sales of our bitcoin. Our agreements with such brokerage services require them to comply with all applicable FinCEN and NYDFS rules and regulations.
 Competition
 Competition in Datacenter Operations and Power Generation Segment
 Datacenter Operations
 The cryptocurrency industry is a highly competitive and evolving industry, and new competitors or emerging technologies could enter the market and affect our competitiveness in the future. The primary drivers impacting competition are the demand for bitcoin, access to sufficient power at economical rates, and the ability to source miners. Our main competitors generally include other large public and private bitcoin mining companies that focus all or a portion of their activities on bitcoin mining and hosting. Miners often organize themselves in mining pools and therefore we compete with other miners also participating in mining pools.
 Power Generation in New York
 Wholesale markets for energy, capacity and ancillary services in New York State are administered by the NYISO. With respect to wholesale sales of electricity, generators bid into the market the quantity of electricity that they are prepared to produce for each hour of the following day and the corresponding price. Generators' bids are subject to bid caps and mitigation rules administered by the NYISO, both of which are designed to ensure that the total bid submitted to the NYISO properly reflects market conditions. Distribution utilities and other load serving entities decide how much electricity they wish to purchase for each hour of the following day and how much they are willing to pay for that electricity. The NYISO then selects the proper mix of generators to supply the hourly demand at the least cost while meeting applicable requirements to maintain a reliable electric system. Prices for capacity and ancillary services are also

 set by the interplay between supply and demand in bid-based markets administered by the NYISO, except in the case of certain ancillary services for which the NYISO's Market Administration and Control Area Services Tariff establishes cost-based rates.
 The NYISO operates bid-based wholesale markets for electric energy, capacity, and other generation-related services such as reactive power support and frequency control. We are authorized to participate in all of these markets, where our bids are evaluated along with bids from numerous other generating facilities in or near New York State. In each of these markets, the NYISO sets the market price, which is paid to all bidders, based on the highest priced bid accepted to meet demand.
 We compete against all other NYISO generation resources, which, as of Summer 2024 included approximately 40,872 MW of installed capacity from gas and oil-fired thermal generation, as well as nuclear, hydro, wind, and other renewable generation. Our competitiveness is based on our variable cost compared to the marginal price in the energy markets, which is set by the bid of the highest-priced resource required to satisfy load requirements. The primary determinants of our variable cost are our efficiency (e.g., how much gas is required to produce a given unit of power) and fuel cost.
 Our variable cost relative to the marginal energy price determines the amount of power we sell. As demand for power increases and as more expensive generation resources are required to satisfy load requirements, the marginal energy price increases. We benefit from retirements of lower-cost generation resources in the NYISO and, conversely, become less competitive as more efficient generation capacity is added.
 A similar dynamic exists in the capacity markets where we are a price-taker. The administratively determined sloping demand curve ensures that the price paid to suppliers of capacity declines as capacity exceeds reliability requirements. Thus, as other generation capacity retires, we will benefit from higher prices and conversely, as other generation capacity is added, we will realize lower capacity revenues. The capacity market is designed to incentivize generation additions when reserve margins (excess capacity relative to peak demand) are low and to reduce capacity payments made to generators when reserve margins are high and excess capacity exists.
 Competitive Advantages
 Electricity is the largest input cost for most cryptocurrency datacenter operations, and we believe owning a power generation facility provides us with a competitive advantage in our cryptocurrency datacenter operations. We believe that our business benefits from the following additional competitive advantages:
 • Vertical integration. We believe there are relatively few other public companies in the United States with cryptocurrency datacenter operations of scale in the United States currently using power generated from their own power plants.
 • Hosting arrangements. The terms of the NYDIG Hosting Agreement require NYDIG to pay a hosting fee that covers the cost of power and a hosting fee associated with direct costs of mining facilities management, as well as a gross profit-sharing arrangement. This allows us to participate in the upside as bitcoin prices rise, but reduces our downside risk of bitcoin price deterioration and cost increases related to natural gas.
 • Low power costs. Through access to the Millennium Pipeline price hub that provides relatively low market rates for natural gas and the relatively cool climate where our power plant is located, we are able to produce our energy at competitive rates and largely avoid the extra cost of active cooling of the cryptocurrency datacenter operations. Our hosting arrangements have reduced the downside risk to us from cost increases related to natural gas.
 • Power market upside. Being online 24/7 allows us to optimize between hosting, power, and cryptocurrency datacenter revenue.
 • Self-reliance. All of the power that we use in our New York cryptocurrency datacenter operations is provided by behind-the-meter generation, eliminating reliance on third-party power purchase agreements that can be modified or revoked at any time.
 • Cryptocurrency experience. We have been active as operators of cryptocurrency datacenters for a number of years which we believe provides us with a competitive advantage over new entrants that have not commenced commercial cryptocurrency datacenter operations. Having engineers and electricians on staff has enabled us to design our own mining architecture, which in turn allows us to operate and maintain our mining operations. We believe this leads to better performance.

 • Institutional backing. Our controlling stockholder, Atlas, is affiliated with an investment firm with more than $6.8 billion of assets under management and prior experience owning and operating more than 2,000 MW of power generation assets.
 Intellectual Property
 We use specific hardware and software for our existing and planned bitcoin mining related operations. In certain cases, source code and other software assets may be subject to an open-source license, as much of the technology development underway in this sector is open source. For such assets, we intend to comply with the terms of all applicable license agreements.

 We do not currently own any patents in connection with our existing and planned bitcoin mining-related operations. In the future we may pursue patents in connection with our Pod X portable bitcoin mining infrastructure solution or other initiatives, but do not have immediate plans to do so. We expect to rely primarily on trade secrets, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights and other intellectual property rights and expect to license the use of intellectual property rights owned and controlled by others. In addition, we have developed and may further develop certain proprietary software applications for purposes of our bitcoin mining-related operations.
 Environmental, Social, Governance
 We are committed to making progress on the issues that matter in the ESG areas and, more specifically, serving as a community partner in the locations in which we operate. This is a critical part of our plan for growth and value creation as we develop our business.
 We participate in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative ("RGGI"), a market-based program in which participating states sell carbon dioxide ("CO2") allowances through auctions and invest proceeds in energy efficiency, renewable energy, and other consumer benefit programs to spur innovation in the clean energy economy and create local green jobs. We purchase RGGI allowances each year to cover 100% of our CO2 emitted from power generation and have done so since we began gas-fired operations in 2017.
 We continue to make improvements related to the environmental impact inherited from the legacy coal power plant site and will continue with our efforts to remediate the legacy coal-ash pollution from our predecessor company. In January 2024, we announced the final plans for the removal of the coal-ash pond created by the previous owners of the plant.
 In addition, we invested more than $6 million in the installation of cylindrical wedge wire screens at the water intake system for our New York Facility. The completion of the wedge wire screens represents another critical milestone in Greenidge's extensive efforts to meet or exceed all of New York State's nation-leading environmental standards. The construction work was completed by workers from local unions, including members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 840, Dockbuilders and Timbermen Local 1556, Carpenters Western New York Local Union 276, International Union of Operating Engineers Local 158 & 150 and Millwrights Local 1163.

 We have entered into a Trail License and Management Agreement with a not-for-profit corporation to permit the construction of an extension of the public access Keuka Outlet Trail through our property in Torrey, New York to the easterly shore of Seneca Lake.
 Seasonality
 Our business is not generally subject to seasonality. However, coin generation from our mining operations may vary depending on our total hashrate at a given point in time relative to the total hashrate of bitcoin. Our power revenue may vary due to external factors impacting supply and demand of electricity in the region including demand due to seasonal weather.
 Human Capital Management
 As of December 31, 2024, Greenidge had 35 employees. We had no employees based outside of the United States. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements; however, in late February 2025, a vote to unionize employees serving as our operators, maintenance technicians, crypto technicians and electrical engineer at our New York

 Facility was approved and we expect to negotiate in good faith and enter into a collective bargaining agreement with such union in 2025. We believe our relationship with our employees is satisfactory.
 Workplace Health and Safety
 The safety and health of our employees is a top priority for us. We are committed to maintaining an effective safety culture and to stressing the importance of our employees' role in identifying, mitigating, and communicating safety risks. We believe that the achievement of superior safety performance is both an important short-term and long-term strategic initiative in managing our operations. In this regard, our policies and operational practices promote a culture where all levels of employees are responsible for safety.
 Government Regulation
 Greenidge Generation holds a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity issued by the NYS Public Service Commission (the "PSC") under Section 68 of the Public Service Law. In addition, it has been granted lightened regulation by the PSC and Market Based Rate Authority by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the "FERC") authorizing it to enter into sales of power in interstate commerce at market-based rates. It is connected to the New York State Electric & Gas Corporation ("NYSEG") transmission system by virtue of the Large Generation Interconnection Agreement among Greenidge Generation, the NYSEG and the NYISO. All environmental permits are set forth below.
 We are a Public Utility Holding Company under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005 ("PUHCA"), and have applied for and received exemption from the record keeping and records inspection regulations of PUHCA.
 One of our subsidiaries, Greenidge Pipeline LLC ("Greenidge Pipeline"), operates pursuant to a Certificate of Environmental Compatibility and Public Need issued by the PSC under Article VII of the Public Service Law. It is exempt from regulation by FERC, under the National Gas Act ("NGA") pursuant to Section 1(c) of the NGA, because all of the gas transmitted through the pipeline is delivered within the State of New York and the rates for delivery are regulated by the PSC. There are no environmental permits associated with the operation of the pipeline.
 Below is a summary of the material regulations that currently apply to our business. Regulations may substantially change in the future, and it is presently not possible to know how regulations will apply to our businesses, or when they will be effective. As the regulatory and legal environment evolves, we may become subject to new laws, further regulation by the SEC, and other federal or state agencies, which may affect our cryptocurrency datacenter, power generation and other related activities. For additional discussion regarding about the potential risks existing and future regulation pose to our business, see "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business" herein.
 Regulations Applicable to Cryptocurrency Datacenter Business
 On November 22, 2022, New York State signed Bill S6486D into law which prohibits permits being issued for two years to proof-of-work cryptocurrency mining operations that are operated through electric generating facilities that use a carbon-based fuel. The bill prohibits the issuance of new permits and does not address existing permit renewal applications that predate the law's effective date. Our permit application was accepted by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation ("NYSDEC") in September 2021. See "Permits" for further details.
 Government regulation of blockchain and bitcoin is being actively considered by the State of New York and U.S. government via a number of agencies and regulatory bodies, as well as similar entities in other countries. Additional state government regulations also may apply to our cryptocurrency datacenter activities and other related activities in which we participate or may participate in the future. Certain regulatory bodies have shown an interest in regulating or investigating companies engaged in the blockchain or bitcoin business.
 At the federal level, cryptocurrency regulation continues to evolve. In a recent development, President Donald Trump signed an executive order titled "Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology," aimed at regulating and promoting the cryptocurrency industry. The order encourages the use of public blockchain networks, participation in mining, and the development of dollar-backed stablecoins. It also seeks to provide regulatory clarity for emerging technologies while prohibiting Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) in the United States. The President's Working

 Group on Digital Asset Markets has been established to recommend regulatory frameworks for digital assets and evaluate a potential national digital-asset stockpile.
 Regulations may substantially change in the future, and it is not possible to know how new regulations will apply to our businesses, or when they will be effective. As the regulatory and legal environment evolves, we may become subject to new laws, further regulation by the SEC and other federal or state agencies, which may affect our cryptocurrency datacenter and other related activities. For additional discussion regarding our belief about the potential risks existing and future regulation pose to our business, see "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business" herein.
 Regulations Applicable to Power Generation Business
 We operate our electricity generating business subject to the following regulatory regimes:
 The New York State Public Service Commission
 Greenidge, GGH LLC and Greenidge Generation are each defined as "electric corporations" subject to regulation by the PSC under New York's Public Service Law. The PSC regulates both the issuance by electric corporations of "stocks, bonds and other evidence of indebtedness" and the purchase and sale of either the assets of or the ownership interests in electric corporations.

 Greenidge Pipeline and Greenidge Pipeline Properties Corporation are "gas corporations" subject to regulation by the PSC under New York's Public Service Law. The PSC regulates both the issuance by gas corporations of "stocks, bonds and other evidences of indebtedness" and the purchase and sale of either the assets of or the ownership interests in gas corporations. Greenidge Pipeline and Greenidge Pipeline Properties Corporation operate their approximately 4.6 -mile gas pipeline under the terms of a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need issued by the PSC. The terms of that certificate govern the safe operation of the facility and minimization of the impacts of that facility on the environment.
 Greenidge Generation currently has permission from the PSC to issue up to $50 million in "indebtedness," which may include non-voting stock. To the extent that Greenidge Generation seeks to issue more than $50 million in such instruments (net of the amount of any instruments already issued), approval must be obtained from the PSC. Issuances of any such instruments by Greenidge Generation do not require the PSC's prior approval, as long as the power generating assets held by Greenidge Generation are not pledged as security under those instruments. Currently these power-generating assets are not pledged as security under any of our outstanding debt agreements.
 The PSC has established a rebuttable presumption that a third party that is not itself an electric or gas corporation may purchase up to 10% of the ownership interests in an electric corporation without: (1) requiring PSC approval; or (2) becoming an electric corporation itself. This presumption may be rebutted if the facts demonstrate that an entity holding less than 10% of the ownership interests in an electric corporation is nonetheless controlling the day-to-day operations of that electric corporation. Acquisition of more than 50% of the ownership interests in an electric corporation will require PSC approval and will make the acquiring entity an electric corporation itself. Acquisitions between 10% and 50% are reviewed by the PSC on a case-by-case basis.
 One exception to these requirements is that an electric or gas corporation that is under common ownership with one or more other entities may be merged with such other entities without requiring PSC approval, provided that such transaction does not result in any change in the ultimate ownership of the public utility in question.
 The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
 Greenidge Generation is a public utility subject to regulation by FERC under the Federal Power Act (the "FPA"). Like the PSC, FERC regulates both the issuance of securities and the purchase and sale of assets and ownership interests in public utilities. The FPA generally:
 1.Limits public utilities from selling, leasing or otherwise disposing of facilities with a value in excess of $10 million and used for wholesale sales of electric energy or electric transmission ("Jurisdictional Facilities") without the prior authorization of FERC, and dispositions resulting in a direct or indirect change of control over a public utility generally require prior FERC authorization.

 2.Prohibits a public utility from merging or consolidating Jurisdictional Facilities with any other public utility's Jurisdictional Facilities with a value in excess of $10 million, without prior FERC authorization.
 3.Requires FERC authorization before a public utility may acquire any security with a value in excess of $10 million of any other public utility.
 4.Requires FERC authorization before a public utility may acquire or lease a generation facility with a value in excess of $10 million.
 5.Requires FERC approval before a holding company in a system which includes an electric transmission or generation company may acquire any security with a value in excess of $10 million of an electric transmission or generation company or a holding company with a value in excess of $10 million.
 6.Requires FERC authorization before a holding company in a system which includes an electric transmission or generation company may merge or consolidate with an electric transmission or generation company or a holding company with a value in excess of $10 million.
 The FPA also requires reporting of certain asset sales which do not otherwise require FERC authorization. FERC approval would also be required in advance of a disposition or change of control over Greenidge through the sale of shares.
 FERC has granted Greenidge Generation blanket authorization to issue securities and assume obligations or liabilities as guarantor, endorser, surety, or otherwise in respect of any security of another person; provided that such issue or assumption is for some lawful object within the corporate purposes of Greenidge Generation, compatible with the public interest, and reasonably necessary or appropriate for such purposes. FERC also administers the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005, which imposes certain record keeping and records access requirements on public utility holding companies. We are a public utility holding company but have received an exemption from such record keeping and records access requirements. Any entity acquiring more than 10% of the voting securities of either us or Greenidge Generation is likely to be regarded by FERC as a public utility holding company. Such entities can obtain an exemption from such record keeping and records access requirements if they are able to demonstrate that they are not affiliated with any jurisdictional utility that has captive customers, and that they do not own commission-jurisdictional transmission facilities or provide commission-jurisdictional transmission services and that they are not affiliated with persons that own such facilities or provide such services.
 Although the gas pipeline owned and operated by Greenidge Pipeline transports gas supplies flowing in interstate commerce, it is regulated by the PSC rather than by FERC because all of the pipeline's facilities are located in, and all of the gas it delivers is consumed in, New York State and its rates are regulated by the PSC. Accordingly, no FERC approvals are required for any financing or transfers of ownership interests in Greenidge Pipeline.
 Because Greenidge Pipeline operates exclusively as a provider of delivery services for gas supplies owned by others, it is not a "gas utility company" under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005 which expands the authority of FERC to oversee transactions and other financial activities of public utility holding companies through grants of access to those companies' books and records. As a result, purchasers directly or indirectly acquiring 10% or more of the voting securities of Greenidge Pipeline would not become subject to FERC recordkeeping and records access requirements of that law. Any such acquisition should be reviewed under FPA Section 203 and the NYPSL Section 70 to determine if an authorization is needed in advance of the transaction.
 In addition, we, GGH, and Atlas and certain of its affiliates are all holding companies under the PUHCA, which is also administered by FERC. Each of these entities has filed a Notice with FERC of their exemption from the books and record-keeping requirements of PUHCA 2005 and are therefore not subject to those requirements.
 A failure to comply with FERC regulatory requirements can result in penalties and in extreme cases, action to unwind a transaction or to impose criminal sanctions. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Risks Related to our Datacenter and Power Generation Operations" for further details.
 The New York State Independent System Operator
 So long as Greenidge Generation remains the owner of the New York Facility, we expect that no approvals from the NYISO should be required for any restructuring of the ownership of us or Greenidge Generation. In the event of a transfer of ownership of its facility to a new owner, the interconnection agreement with the NYISO and NYSEG currently held by Greenidge Generation can be assigned to the new owner, so long as the assignee in such a transaction directly assumes in

 writing all rights, duties and obligations arising under that agreement and agrees to comply with all of the NYISO's applicable market rules.
 Yates County Industrial Development Agency
 Both Greenidge Generation and Greenidge Pipeline have lease/leaseback relationships in place with the Yates County Industrial Development Agency, which relationships also include a payment in lieu of tax agreement. Consent of the Yates County Industrial Development Agency would be required for both Greenidge Generation and Greenidge Pipeline for any type of merger, consolidation or change of control, which consent must be obtained prior to completion of such transaction.
 The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
 The operations of each of Greenidge Generation and the landfill owned by another subsidiary of Greenidge, Lockwood Hills LLC ("Lockwood Hills"), are subject to numerous NYSDEC and United States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") regulations and requirements. Lockwood Hills operates a landfill and leachate management facility (the "Landfill"). Most of the EPA requirements that Greenidge Generation and Lockwood Hills are subject to are delegated to the NYSDEC and are regulated through permits issued by NYSDEC. Future laws or regulations may require the addition of environmental controls or impose restrictions on Greenidge Generation and Lockwood Hills operations, which could affect our operations.
 Complying with environmental laws often involves significant capital and operating expenses. See "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Risks Related to Our Business Generally" and "—Risks Related to our Datacenter and Power Generation Operations" for further details.
 Permits
 Greenidge Generation's operations are subject to the following NYSDEC-issued permits: Clean Air Act Title IV and Title V permits, Clean Water Act SPDES, and New York State Water Withdrawal Permit. Greenidge Generation also holds a Petroleum Bulk Storage registration issued by NYSDEC, which includes requirements applicable to the petroleum storage tanks located at the facility. The Landfill is subject to the following NYSDEC-issued permits: SPDES Permit and Part 360 Solid Waste Management Permit.
 Air
 The Clean Air Act Title IV and Title V permits authorize Greenidge Generation to fire natural gas (with up to 19% biomass co-firing) to produce electricity in accordance with the requirements of these permits. These permits regulate air emissions associated with our operations and include all applicable Clean Air Act and New York State requirements. Greenidge Generation is also subject to the RGGI, which is a multi-state cap and trade program for carbon dioxide emissions that requires Greenidge Generation to purchase one RGGI allowance for every ton of CO2 emitted from the New York Facility. RGGI allowances are offered in quarterly auctions and are available from third parties. In 2019, New York State passed the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act ("CLCPA"), which requires the NYSDEC and PSC to promulgate regulations and programs for the state to meet greenhouse gas emission reduction requirements and targets. NYSDEC and PSC have not fully implemented the CLCPA.
 In late June 2022, the NYSDEC announced its denial of the Title V air permit renewal for our New York Facility. We filed a notice with the NYSDEC in 2022 requesting an adjudicatory hearing on NYSDEC's decision. Having timely completed our application to renew our Title V air permit, we are permitted to operate uninterrupted under a State Administrative Procedures Act extension, in full compliance with our existing Title V Air Permit, until final resolution of the adjudicatory hearing and appeals processes, which we believe may take a number of years to resolve. See Note 10, "Commitments and Contingencies—Legal Matters" for further details.
 Water
 The New York Facility is subject to SPDES and Water Withdrawal permits issued by NYSDEC for five-year terms, which include state and federal requirements applicable to withdrawal of water from Seneca Lake and discharge of process and stormwaters from the New York Facility to the Keuka Lake Outlet and Seneca Lake. A request for renewal has been made prior to the expiration of these permits and has been deemed timely and sufficient by NYSDEC. This allows uninterrupted operation of the New York Facility under the State Administrative Procedures Act. In September 2022, NYSDEC modified

 our SPDES permit which granted an extension to install Best Technology Available for cooling water intake structures. We completed the installation of the Best Technology Available and began successful operation in January 2023.
 The Landfill, which is located approximately 0.4 miles from the Greenidge Generation facility, discharges stormwater and treated leachate to the Keuka Lake Outlet in accordance with a SPDES permit issued by NYSDEC. A reissued SPDES permit was completed in May 2022. This permit establishes effluent limitations and sampling frequency for both stormwater and leachate discharges from the Landfill and specifies a monitoring and reporting structure to the NYSDEC. This permit is valid until June 2027.
 Waste
 The Landfill is also subject to a Part 360 Solid Waste Management Facility permit issued by NYSDEC. An application to renew and modify the Part 360 permit was submitted in August 2020 to NYSDEC, and NYSDEC is currently processing the application. Due to the operations of the previous owners of the Lockwood Hills landfill, in 2015 NYSDEC alleged that the then-existing Leachate Pond was causing exceedances of New York State groundwater standards. Lockwood Hills entered into a Consent Order with the NYSDEC in 2015, which required remediation of the leachate pond, and installation of a liner and treatment system. The work required by the Consent Order was completed in 2019 as required, and NYSDEC approved of the construction report on July 6, 2020. Applications for modification of the SPDES and Part 360 permits to reflect the implementation of the consent order, which are the final requirements of the consent order, were timely submitted to NYSDEC. During the fourth quarter of 2023, we received a request for additional information from NYSDEC which we are currently in the process of gathering to facilitate the processing of our permit renewal applications. Lockwood Hills is subject to EPA's Coal Combustion Residuals Rule (the "CCR Rule"), as a coal combustion residual ("CCR") landfill. In accordance with the requirements of the CCR Rule, Lockwood has drafted required plans and documents and hosts a publicly available website that makes certain documents available to the public. Our communications with EPA with respect to the Landfill and continued CCR compliance requirements continued in January 2024 and remain ongoing.

 Greenidge Generation is also subject to the CCR Rule, which requires that the onsite CCR surface impoundment associated with previous coal-fired operation of the New York Facility, be closed. Greenidge Generation has also drafted the CCR Rule documents associated with closure, and has a publicly available website that makes certain documents available to the public as required by the rule. We have evaluated the impact of the CCR Rule on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows and have accrued environmental liabilities under the rule based on current estimates. On January 9, 2024, Greenidge Generation entered into a Consent Agreement and Final Order with EPA wherein we were required to pay a civil fine in the amount of $105,000 and to cease receipt of waste into the onsite CCR surface impoundment in accordance with the timeframes and extensions set forth in the CCR Rule. Greenidge Generation continues to undertake compliance efforts pursuant to the Consent Agreement and Final Order.
 Environmental Liability
 As required by the NYSDEC, landfills are required to establish and maintain financial assurance mechanism to cover closure, post-closure care, and related expenses. The purpose of the financial assurance mechanism is to ensure the amount of funds assured is sufficient to cover the costs of landfill closure, post-closure care, custodial care, and, if necessary, corrective measures for known releases when needed. The financial assurance amount is based on written estimates, in current dollars, of the cost of hiring a third party to perform the work. The NYSDEC has allowed Atlas and its affiliates to satisfy this financial assurance obligation by maintaining a letter of credit guaranteeing the payment of the landfill liability. As of December 31, 2024, the letter of credit amount was approximately $5.0 million, which guaranteed the payment of a portion of the landfill liability. In this first quarter of 2025, Greenidge contributed $1.3 million into a trust established with NYSDEC as the beneficiary to cover the remainder of the landfill surety requirement.
 CCRs are subject to federal and state regulations. Most of our obligations associated with CCR are for the closure of a coal ash pond. The Landfill is in compliance with the CCR requirements applicable to CCR landfills and is not required to close. With regards to our coal ash pond, in accordance with federal law and Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 410-20, Environmental Liabilities, we have an environmental liability of $17.3 million as of December 31, 2024.
 During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized a charge of $0.5 million for the remeasurement of environmental liabilities as a result of an update in the cost estimates associated to CCR liabilities related to the Lockwood landfill and the CCR impoundment as part of our continuing evaluation of the site.

 Corporate History and Structure
 In 2014, Atlas Holdings LLC and its affiliates ("Atlas") formed Greenidge Generation Holdings LLC ("GGH") and purchased all of the equity interests in Greenidge Generation LLC ("Greenidge Generation"), which owned an idled power plant in Torrey, New York. Following the purchase, a project was commenced to convert the power plant from coal to natural gas. This included securing the right of way and constructing a 4.6-mile natural gas pipeline which we now own and operate. In May 2017, the transformed power plant commenced operations with a total generation capacity of approximately 106 MW.
 After the completion of a successful pilot program in 2019, we commenced cryptocurrency datacenter operations in January 2020.
 In January 2021, GGH completed a corporate restructuring, pursuant to which Greenidge was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 27, 2021. On January 29, 2021, we entered into an asset contribution and exchange agreement with the owners of GGH, pursuant to which we acquired all of the ownership interests in GGH in exchange for 700,000 shares of our common stock. As a result of this transaction, GGH became a wholly owned subsidiary of Greenidge Generation Holdings Inc ("GGHI").
 On September 14, 2021, we acquired Support.com pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger (the "Support Merger") and, as a result, it began to operate as our wholly owned subsidiary. Subsequent to the Support Merger, our shares of Class A common stock were listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market and began trading under the symbol "GREE", which is the current trading symbol of our Class A common stock.

 ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
 In evaluating our company and our business, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with the other information in this Annual Report, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and in the section titled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in these risk factors, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, revenue, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects, in which case the market price of our common stock could decline. Unless otherwise indicated, reference in this section and elsewhere in this Annual Report to our business being adversely affected, negatively impacted or harmed will include an adverse effect on, or a negative impact or harm to, our business, reputation, financial condition, results of operations, revenue and our future prospects. The material and other risks and uncertainties summarized above in this Annual Report and described below are not intended to be exhaustive and are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. This Annual Report also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including the risks described below. Certain statements in the Risk Factors below are forward-looking statements. See the section titled "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements".
 Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, which illuminate challenges that we face in connection with the successful implementation of our strategy and the growth of our business. Our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial.

 Risks Related to Our Business
 General Risks
 Because our current projected operating cash flows are not sufficient in the long term to meet our existing long-term debt obligations, an investment in our common stock is highly speculative. Holders of our common stock could suffer a total loss of their investment.
 The ability to meet our existing long-term debt obligations is dependent upon generating profitable operations, obtaining necessary financing to meet our obligations, repaying our liabilities when they come due and/or successfully executing on our debt restructuring efforts. Our operating cash flows are affected by several factors including the price of bitcoin and cost of electricity and natural gas and emissions credits. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, we took certain actions to improve our liquidity, including the settlement of our debt with NYDIG, selling the South Carolina Facility, entering into a definitive agreement to sell the remaining 152 acres in South Carolina to Data Journey, completing an equity financing with Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. ("Armistice"), and executing certain privately negotiated debt-for-equity exchange agreements. See "Business—Corporate History and Structure," and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Liquidity and Capital Resources."

 Depending on our assumptions regarding the timing of and our ability to achieve more normalized levels of operating revenue, the estimated amount of required liquidity will vary significantly. Similarly, while bitcoin prices have risen in the fourth quarter of 2024 and remain relatively high as of the first quarter of 2025, we cannot predict if bitcoin prices will continue to rise or remain at recent levels, or volatility in energy costs. While we continue to work to implement the options to improve liquidity, we can provide no assurance that these efforts will be successful. Our ability to successfully implement these options could be negatively impacted by items outside of our control, in particular, significant decreases in the price of bitcoin, regulatory changes concerning cryptocurrency, ongoing adjudicatory proceedings with respect to the New York Facility's Title V Air Permit, increases in energy costs or other macroeconomic conditions. There is uncertainty regarding our financial condition in the long term if we are not able to increase our current projected operating cash flows sufficiently.
 We may need to raise additional capital to grow our business and may not be able to do so on favorable terms, if at all. Future issuances of equity or debt securities may adversely affect the value of our common stock.
 We may need to raise additional capital in the future, including to expand our operations and pursue our growth strategies, to respond to competitive pressures or to meet capital needs in response to operating losses or unanticipated working capital requirements. We may not be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on favorable terms in the future, if at all, which could impair our growth and adversely affect our existing operations.
 If we conduct an equity offering, to raise capital or to take advantage of strong capital markets, our stockholders may experience significant dilution of their ownership interests, and the per share value of our Class A common stock could materially decline. See "Risks Related to the Ownership of Our Securities—Our issuance of a significant number of additional shares of Class A common stock in connection with any future financings, acquisitions, investments, commercial arrangements, under our stock incentive plans, or otherwise will dilute all other shareholders and our stock price could decline as a result."
 Furthermore, if we engage in further debt financing, the holders of debt likely would have priority over the holders of our common stock, including the Class A common stock, with respect to order of payment. Upon a bankruptcy or liquidation, holders of any such debt securities, and lenders with respect to other borrowings we may make, would receive distributions of our available assets prior to any distributions being made to holders of Class A common stock.
 Moreover, if we issue preferred stock in the future, the holders of such preferred stock could also be entitled to preferences over holders of Class A common stock in respect of the payment of dividends and the payment of liquidating distributions. Further, such securities could require us to accept terms that restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness, take other actions including terms that require us to maintain specified liquidity or other ratios that could otherwise not be in the interests of our stockholders.
 We cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of any such future offerings or borrowings.

 We have incurred operating losses throughout our growth. If we are unable to sustain greater revenues than our operating costs and support our expansion plans, we may continue to experience operating losses, which would continue to negatively impact our results of operations, strategy and financial performance.

 We have experienced recurring losses from operations since we began bitcoin mining in 2019. Bitcoin and energy pricing and cryptocurrency datacenter economics are volatile and subject to uncertainty, which has resulted in operating losses during certain periods in our corporate history. Our current strategy will continue to expose us to the numerous risks and volatility associated with the cryptocurrency datacenter and power generation sectors, including fluctuating bitcoin to U.S. dollar prices, the profitability of our hosting arrangement with NYDIG, the number of market participants mining bitcoin, the availability of other power generation facilities to expand operations and regulatory changes.
 If, among other things, the price of bitcoin does not continue its recovery, which has continued during the fourth quarter of 2024 and first quarter of 2025, or mining economics do not return to profitability, we will continue to incur losses. Such losses could be significant as we incur costs and expenses associated with recent investments and potential future acquisitions, as well as legal and administrative related expenses. While we are closely monitoring our cash balances, cash needs and expense levels, significant expense increases may not be offset by a corresponding increase in revenue or a significant decline in bitcoin prices could significantly impact our financial performance. Due to our current projected operating cash flows being insufficient in the long term to meet our long-term debt obligations, an investment in our common stock is highly speculative. See "General Risks—Because our current projected operating cash flows are not sufficient in the long term to meet our current long-term debt obligations, an investment in our common stock is highly speculative. Holders of our common stock could suffer a total loss of their investment."
 Risks Related to Our Business Generally
 We are exposed to customer concentration risk, substantially dependent on our sole hosting services customer, and exposed to counterparty nonperformance risk for our hosting arrangement.
 We currently are substantially dependent on our sole hosting services customer to generate most of our revenue, which exposes us to the risk of nonperformance by such customer, whether contractual or otherwise. The nonperformance of our hosting services customer would have a material impact on our liquidity and ability to operate the business. Risk of nonperformance includes inability or refusal of a counterparty to perform because of a counterparty's financial condition and liquidity or for any other reason. For further details, see "Business—Overview—Hosting Agreements" for further details. Any significant nonperformance by our customer, could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results.

 Our success depends on external factors in the cryptomining industry.

 We have a single hosting customer in the cryptomining industry, and we remain substantially dependent on
 this customer. The cryptomining industry is subject to various risks which could adversely affect our customer's ability to continue to operate their businesses, including, but not limited to:
 • ongoing and future government or regulatory actions that could effectively prevent mining operations, with little to no access to policymakers and lobbying organizations in many jurisdictions;
 • a degree of uncertainty about cryptoassets' status as a "security," a "commodity," or a "financial instrument" in certain jurisdictions that may subject cryptomining industry to regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, and other penalties;
 • banks or financial institutions may close the accounts of businesses engaging in cryptoasset-related activities as a result of compliance risk, cost, government regulation, or public pressure;
 • use of cryptoassets in the retail and commercial marketplace is limited;
 • extreme volatility in the market price of cryptoassets that may harm our customer's financial resources, ability to meet its contractual obligations to us, or cause it to reduce or cease mining operations;
 • use of a ledger-based platform may not necessarily benefit from viable trading markets or the rigors of listing requirements for securities, creating higher potential risk for fraud or the manipulation of the ledger due to a control event;
 • concentrated ownership, large sales of cryptoassets, or distributions or redemptions by vehicles invested in cryptoassets could have an adverse effect on the demand for, and market price of, such cryptoasset;
 • the cryptomining industry could face difficulty adapting to emergent digital ledgers, blockchains, or alternatives thereto, rapidly changing technology or methods of, rules of, or access to, platforms;

 • the number of cryptoassets awarded for solving a block in a blockchain decreasing due to the existing protocol or a fork thereof which may adversely affect the incentive to expend processing power to solve blocks and/or continue mining, and miners may not have access to resources to invest in increasing processing power when necessary in order to maintain the continuing revenue production of their mining operations;
 • intellectual property claims or claims relating to the holding and transfer of cryptoassets and source code, which, regardless of the merit of any such action, could reduce confidence in some or all cryptoasset networks' long-term viability or the ability of end-users to hold and transfer cryptoassets;
 • contributors to the open-source structure of the cryptoasset network protocols are generally not directly compensated for their contributions in maintaining and developing the protocol and may lack incentive to properly monitor and upgrade the protocols;
 • disruptions of the Internet on which mining cryptoassets is dependent;
 • decentralized nature of the governance of cryptoasset systems, generally by voluntary consensus and open competition with no clear leadership structure or authority, may lead to ineffective decision making that slows development or prevents a network from overcoming emergent obstacles; and
 • security breaches, hacking, or other malicious activities or loss of private keys relating to, or hack or other compromise of, digital wallets used to store cryptoassets could adversely affect the ability to access or sell cryptoassets or effectively utilize impacted platforms.
 Such impacts to the cryptomining industry may also negatively affect our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity, and prospects.
 The bitcoin reward for successfully uncovering a block most recently halved in April 2024 and will halve again several times in the future, and bitcoin value may not adjust to compensate us for the reduction in the rewards we receive from our bitcoin mining efforts.
 Halving is a mechanism designed to regulate the total supply, and mitigate inflation, of cryptocurrencies using a proof of work consensus algorithm. At a predetermined block, the bitcoin mining reward is cut in half, hence the term "halving." For bitcoin, the reward was initially set at 50 bitcoin currency rewards per block, which was cut in half to 25 on November 28, 2012 at block 210,000, then to 12.5 on July 9, 2016 at block 420,000, and then again to 6.25 on May 11, 2020 at block 630,000. The most recent halving for bitcoin occurred on April 19, 2024 at block 840,000 and the reward was reduced to 3.125. The next halving is expected to occur in Spring 2028. This process will recur until the total amount of bitcoin currency rewards issued reaches 21 million, which is expected to occur around the year 2140.

 Bitcoin has had a history of price fluctuations around the halving of its rewards, and we can provide no assurance that any price change will be favorable or would compensate for the reduction in bitcoin mining reward in connection with a halving. If the award of bitcoin or a proportionate decrease in bitcoin mining difficulty does not follow these anticipated halving events, the revenue we earn from our cryptocurrency datacenter operations would see a corresponding decrease, and we may not have an adequate incentive to continue bitcoin mining.
 Any disruption in developing our datacenter sites may delay the deployment of our miners, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial performance.
 We are in the process of developing other sites and expanding our existing locations to deploy our mining equipment, and any disruption in developing such sites may delay our efforts. We may face challenges in obtaining suitable land to build new cryptocurrency datacenter facilities, as we require close cooperation with local power suppliers and local governments of the places where our proposed facilities are located. Delays in actions that require the assistance of such third parties, in receiving required permits and approvals or in mediations with local communities, if any, may negatively impact our construction timelines and budget or result in any new datacenters not being completed at all. Any delay in developing other sites could delay our ability to deploy mining equipment that we own and is currently idle, and materially and adversely affect our results of operations, strategy, and financial performance. Our business will be negatively impacted if we are unable to run our datacenter operations in a way that is technologically advanced, economically and energy efficient and temperature controlled. If we are unsuccessful, we may damage our miners and the profitability of our datacenter operations. If we experience significant delays in the supply of power required to support any datacenter expansion or new construction, the progress of such projects could deviate from our original plans, which could cause material and negative effects on our revenue growth, profitability, and results of operations. Any material delay in completing these projects, or any substantial cost increases or quality issues in connection with these projects, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 It may take significant time, expenditure, or effort for us to grow our business, including our cryptocurrency datacenter operations, through acquisitions, and our efforts may not be successful.
 The number of bitcoin and other cryptocurrency datacenter companies has greatly increased in recent years. As we and other bitcoin/cryptocurrency datacenter companies seek to grow their mining or hosting capacity or access additional sources of electricity to power growing datacenter operations, the acquisition of existing cryptocurrency datacenter companies and standalone electricity production facilities may become an attractive avenue of growth. Currently, we source most of our electricity for our cryptocurrency datacenter operations from our captive power generation facility located in Torrey, New York. If we determine to expand our operations, we may want to do so through the acquisition of additional bitcoin or other cryptocurrency datacenter businesses or electricity generating power plants. Further attractive acquisition targets may not be available to us for a number of reasons, such as growing competition for attractive targets, economic or industry sector downturns, geopolitical tensions, regulatory changes, environmental challenges, increases in the cost of additional capital needed to close business combination or operate targets post-business combination. Our inability to identify and consummate acquisitions of attractive targets could have a material and adverse impact on our long-term growth prospects, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, strategy, and financial performance.
 Failure to successfully integrate businesses or assets we have acquired or may acquire in the future could negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 Acquisitions are an important element of our growth strategy and the success of any acquisition we make depends in part on our ability to integrate the acquired business or assets and realize anticipated synergies and benefits. Integrating acquired businesses and assets may involve unforeseen difficulties, may require a disproportionate amount of our management's attention, and may require us to reallocate our resources, financial or otherwise.

 For example, we may encounter challenges in the integration process such as: difficulties associated with managing the resulting larger and more complex company; conforming administrative and corporate structures and standards, controls, procedures and policies, business cultures, hiring and retention of key employees, and compensation and benefits structures, coordinating geographically dispersed operations; and our ability to deliver on our strategy going forward.

 Further, our existing and any potential future acquisitions may subject us to increased costs and compliance burdens and new liabilities and risks, some of which may be unknown. Although we and our advisors conduct due diligence on the operations of businesses and assets we acquire, we can provide no assurance that we are aware of all liabilities associated with acquired businesses or assets. These liabilities, and any additional risks and uncertainties not known to us or that we may deem immaterial or unlikely to occur at the time of the acquisition, could negatively impact our future business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 We can provide no assurance that we will ultimately be able to effectively integrate and manage the operations of any business or assets we have acquired or may acquire in the future or realize the anticipated synergies or benefits. The failure to successfully integrate such businesses or assets could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
 We have experienced turnover in our senior management team, and reduced our employee headcount significantly in 2023 and 2024. If we fail to retain key talent or are unable to attract and retain other qualified personnel, our results of operations, strategy, and financial performance could be adversely affected.
 Our operations, strategy and business depend to a significant degree on the skills and services of our senior management team. In 2023 and 2024, we experienced significant turnover in our senior management team, including the termination of our General Counsel in May 2023, the appointment of a new Chief Financial Officer as part of a management restructuring in October 2023, the appointment of another new Chief Executive Officer in November 2023, the termination of our Chief Strategy Officer in April 2024 and the termination of our Chief Technology Officer in December 2024. Our business may be adversely affected by turnover in our senior management team, which may create instability within the Company and impede our day-to-day operations and internal controls. In addition, we reduced our employee headcount significantly in 2023.
 At present, our management team is small, with our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer playing key roles. We will need to continue to grow our management in order to alleviate pressure on our existing management team and in order to continue to develop our business and execute on any future identification and expansion into other potential opportunities. If our management, including any new hires that we may make, fails to work together effectively or to execute our plans and strategies on a timely basis, our business could be harmed.

 If we fail to execute an effective contingency or succession plan with the loss of any member of management, the loss of such management personnel may significantly disrupt our business. Our future success also depends in large part on our ability to attract, retain, and motivate key management and operating personnel. As we continue to develop and expand our operations, we may require personnel with different skills and experiences, and who have a sound understanding of our business and the bitcoin industry. The market for highly qualified personnel in the industries in which we operate is very competitive, and we may be unable to attract and retain such personnel. If we are unable to attract and retain such personnel, our business could be harmed.
 We may face risks related to labor union efforts and employee relations that could lead to increased labor costs, disruptions to our operations or legal challenges.
 In January 2025, we received a notice of petition to hold an election to form a union filed by IBEW Local 10 of the National Labor Relations Board ("NLRB") on behalf of our operators, maintenance technicians, crypto technicians and electrical engineer at the New York Facility. The vote to unionize such workers held in late February 2025 was approved. The formation of the union means that we have to negotiate a collective bargaining agreement in good faith with the NLRB on behalf of such employees and to respond to certain information requests which may be made by the NLRB in furtherance thereof, a process that we anticipate will not be completed until later this year. While we have not experienced significant disruptions due to such unionization efforts to date, such efforts could lead to increased labor costs, disruptions to our operations, or legal challenges. Additionally, any labor disputes or strikes could negatively impact our ability to meet operational targets or maintain productivity. The outcome of any union-related activity could also affect our public image, relationships with employees, our ability to attract and retain talent, and challenges in negotiating labor agreements that are acceptable to both parties and could potentially increase our operating costs and reduce flexibility in managing workforce-related matters.
 Cyber-attacks and security breaches of our own or our third-party providers may disrupt or adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition, and damage our reputation or otherwise materially harm our business.
 We rely on information technology systems across our operations to manage our business including, but not limited to, our accounting, finance, datacenter, and power operations. Our information technology is provided primarily through third party cloud computing arrangements. Further, our business involves the use, processing, storage and transmission of information about customers, vendors, creditors and employees using such information technology systems. Our ability to effectively operate our business depends on the security, reliability and capacity of these systems.
 Like most corporations, we have experienced cyberattacks, including phishing or ransomware attacks, from time to time, and we expect to be the target of such cyberattacks in the future. Failure to effectively prevent, detect and recover from security breaches, including attacks on information technology and infrastructure by hackers; viruses; breaches due to employee error or actions; or other disruptions could seriously harm our operations, as well as the operations of our customers and suppliers. Such serious harm can involve, among other things, misuse of our assets, business disruptions, loss of data, unauthorized access to trade secrets and confidential business information, unauthorized access to personal information, legal claims or proceedings, reporting errors, processing inefficiencies, negative media attention, reputational harm, loss of business, remediation and increased insurance costs, and interference with regulatory compliance. In the event of an attack, our costs and any impacted assets may not be partially or fully recoverable. Threats can come from a variety of sources, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage, and insiders. In addition, certain types of attacks could harm us even if our systems are left undisturbed. For example, certain threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable, sometimes for extended periods of time, or until launched against a target, and we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures. To date, we have not experienced a material cyber-event. However, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, these types of cybersecurity threats and risks.
 Our training and security measures designed to protect against cyberattacks, phishing, security breaches, and misappropriation or corruption of our systems, intentional or unintentional disclosure of confidential information, or disruption of our operations, may be insufficient to protect our technology infrastructure. As these threats continue to evolve, particularly around cybersecurity, we may be required to expend significant resources to enhance our control environment, processes, practices, and other protective measures. Despite these efforts, we may not be able to prevent cyberattacks and other security breaches and such events could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, some insurers are currently reluctant to provide cybersecurity insurance for cryptocurrency. Further, as the majority of our information technology involves third-party cloud-computing arrangements, a disruption occurring at one of those third-parties for the above risks, or other causes outside of our control, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 We have material environmental liabilities, and costs of compliance with existing and new environmental laws could have a material adverse effect on us.
 We and our affiliates are subject to extensive environmental regulation by governmental authorities, including the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA"), and state environmental agencies such as the NYSDEC and/or attorneys general, and have material environmental liabilities, including a coal combustion ("CCR") residual liability of $17.3 million as of December 31, 2024 associated with the closure of a coal ash point located on the New York Facility property and an environmental liability of $13.4 million as of December 31, 2024 associated with the Lockwood Hills Landfill. See "Business—Governmental Regulation—Environmental Liability" and Note 10, "Commitments and Contingencies—Environmental Liabilities", in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We may incur significant additional costs beyond those currently contemplated to comply with these regulatory requirements. If we fail to comply with these and future regulatory requirements, we could be forced to reduce or discontinue operations or become subject to administrative, civil, or criminal liabilities and fines.
 In 2015, EPA finalized federal regulations (the "CCR Rule") that establish technical requirements for the disposal of CCR. The EPA recently published revisions to the CCR Rule, effective November 8, 2024 (the "revised CCR regulations"). The revised CCR regulations impose certain compliance and other obligations on certain previously unregulated CCR sites. The revised CCR regulations require, among other things, electric utilities and independent power producers to investigate and identify previously unregulated CCR sites and demonstrate that the sites were closed in accordance with the closure performance standards in the CCR Rule. The required investigation is conducted in phases, with the Phase 1 report due on February 9, 2026. Any required closure obligation would commence on May 8, 2029, unless exceptions apply that would defer the closure obligation to a permitting process. In accordance with the revised CCR regulations, phased evaluations of the Lockwood Hills and Greenidge Generation facilities will be conducted to determine if any previously unregulated CCR sites must be addressed under the new regulation. We make no assurances as to the status of any CCR sites at either facility that could be subject to regulation under the revised CCR regulations.

 Additionally, the EPA has recently finalized or proposed several regulatory actions establishing new requirements for control of certain air emissions from certain sources, including electricity generation facilities. In the future, the EPA may also propose and finalize additional regulatory actions that may adversely affect our existing generation facilities or our ability to cost-effectively develop new generation facilities. We can provide no assurance that the currently installed emissions control equipment at the natural gas-fueled generation facilities owned and operated by us will satisfy the requirements under any future EPA or state environmental regulations. Future federal and/or state regulatory actions could require us to install significant additional emissions control equipment, resulting in potentially material costs of compliance for our generation units, including capital expenditures, higher operating and fuel costs, and potential production curtailments. These costs could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 Existing environmental regulations could be revised or reinterpreted, new laws and regulations could be adopted or become applicable to us or our facilities, and future changes in environmental laws and regulations could occur, including potential regulatory and enforcement developments related to air emissions, all of which could result in significant additional costs beyond those currently contemplated to comply with existing requirements. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 We may not be able to obtain or maintain all required environmental regulatory approvals. For example, we continue to challenge NYSDEC's efforts to the renewal of our Title V Air Permit for the continued operation of our natural gas power generation facility in Torrey, New York in administrative and state judicial proceedings. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful. If there is a delay in obtaining any required environmental regulatory approvals, if we fail to obtain, maintain, or comply with any such approval, or if an approval is retroactively disallowed or adversely modified, the operation of our generation facilities could be stopped, disrupted, curtailed, or modified or become subject to additional costs. Any such stoppage, disruption, curtailment, modification, or additional costs could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

 In addition, we may be responsible for any on-site liabilities associated with the environmental condition of facilities that we have acquired, leased, developed, or sold, regardless of when the liabilities arose and whether they are now known or unknown. In connection with certain acquisitions and sales of assets, we may obtain, or be required to provide, indemnification against certain environmental liabilities. Another party could, depending on the circumstances, assert an environmental claim against us or fail to meet its indemnification obligation to us. Such event could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

 We have been, are currently, and may be in the future, the subject of legal proceedings, including governmental investigations, relating to our products or services.
 We, or certain of our subsidiaries, have been named as a party to several lawsuits, government inquiries or investigations, and other legal proceedings, and may be named in additional ones in the future. Litigation may be time-consuming, expensive, and disruptive to normal business operations, and the outcome of litigation is difficult to predict. The ultimate outcome of litigation could have a material adverse effect on us and the trading price for our securities. Furthermore, litigation, regardless of the outcome, may result in significant expenditures, diversion of our management's time and attention from the operation of the business and damage to our reputation or relationship with third parties, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, strategy, and financial performance.
 The cost of defense can be large as can any settlement or judgment in an action. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, strategy, and financial performance.
 While we have multiple sources of revenue from our business and operations, our revenues are largely dependent on the single natural gas power generation facility that we operate. Any disruption to our single power plant would have a material adverse effect on our business and operations, as well as our results of operations and financial condition.
 We operate a single source natural gas power generation facility in New York that presently comprises and supports the vast majority of our business and operations. While we realize multiple sources of revenue from our business and operations, our revenues are largely dependent on the continuing operation of our natural gas power generation facility in Torrey, New York. Power plants involve complex operations and equipment, much of which is subject to wear and tear in the normal course of operation. Further, equipment used in the operations of the power plant may also suffer breakdown or malfunction, physical disaster, and sabotage. Substantially all of our operations are operated with computer systems that may be subject to data security breaches, computer malfunction and viruses, and generally require continual software updates and maintenance. Repairing, replacing, or otherwise fixing or addressing any of these or other issues may require the allocation of significant time, capital or other resources, such as technical capability, and during such period of time, we would be unable to operate our power plant and generate revenue. We may not have the adequate capital or other resources to fix or otherwise address these factors or issues in a timely manner or at all, and we may not have access to the necessary parts or equipment that are required to fix or otherwise address such factors or issues.
 Some of the parts and equipment necessary to operate the power plant may require long lead-times in order to acquire, either due to availability, production time or cycles, shipping, or other factors, thereby making such parts or equipment difficult to acquire in a timely manner or on a cost-effective basis, if available at all. Any disruption to our power generation facility in New York would cause a suspension of revenue generating activity and would have a material adverse effect on our business and operations, as well as our results of operations and financial condition.
 We maintain cash deposits in excess of federally insured limits. Adverse developments affecting financial institutions, including bank failures, could adversely affect our liquidity and financial performance.
 We maintain domestic cash deposits in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insured banks that exceed the FDIC insurance limits. We also maintain cash deposits in foreign banks where we operate, some of which are not insured or are only partially insured by the FDIC or similar agencies. Bank failures, events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance, or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, or concerns or rumors about such events, may lead to liquidity constraints. For example, on March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank failed and was taken into receivership by the FDIC. At the time that Silicon Valley Bank failed, we maintained balances there in excess of the federal insured limit and also, through a subsidiary, processed payroll there. The failure of a bank, or other adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets impacting financial institutions at which we maintain balances, could adversely impact our liquidity and financial performance. We can provide no assurance that our deposits in excess of the FDIC or other comparable insurance limits will be backstopped by the U.S. or applicable foreign government, or that any bank or financial institution with which we do business will be able to obtain needed liquidity from other banks, government institutions, or by acquisition in the event of a failure or liquidity crisis.
 We rely on a well-known U.S. based third-party digital asset-focused custodian to safeguard our bitcoin, but our holdings are not insured by us or protected by FDIC or SIPC.
 Our Custodian, Coinbase, safeguards our bitcoin using cold storage. The Custodian holds our digital assets and any cash we may choose to custody, though we currently have no cash held with the Custodian and have no plans to do so. Under the Coinbase Prime Broker Agreement, the Custodian covenants to hold our digital assets in segregated accounts, identifiable as belonging to us, with no rights, interest, or title in those assets. Cash, if held, would be placed in "for benefit of customers" accounts at U.S. insured depository institutions. The agreement ensures our digital assets are not

 commingled with other holdings, other than to facilitate transfers (typically under 12 hours, but never more than 72 hours). While we believe this agreement offers reasonable protections, storing assets with any custodian involves risks. If the Custodian breaches its agreement, ceases operations, declares insolvency, or files for bankruptcy, our digital assets could be delayed or unrecoverable — even if held in segregated accounts. Insolvency laws regarding digital assets are still evolving. If our bitcoin were deemed part of the Custodian's bankruptcy estate, we could be treated as general unsecured creditors, limiting or delaying our ability to recover assets. While the Custodian maintains limited insurance against certain losses like theft, this coverage is shared among all their clients — likely falling short of the total value of custodied assets. If our bitcoin is lost, stolen, or destroyed, recovery may be limited or unavailable, and any insurance proceeds would likely be insufficient. Losses could materially impact our financial condition and stock value. We currently do not have a backup custodian. If Coinbase were to cease operations or face insolvency, we would need to self-custody our digital assets using cold storage until a suitable replacement is found, which could disrupt our business. In the meantime, our mined bitcoin would continue accumulating in our proprietary wallet. Our limited rights of legal recourse and our lack of insurance protection over our bitcoin expose us and our stockholders to the risk of loss of our bitcoin for which there may be no adequate remedy.
 We may not be able to compete effectively against other companies, some of whom have greater resources and experience.
 We may not be able to compete effectively against present or future competitors. The bitcoin industry has attracted various high-profile and well-established competitors, some of whom have substantially greater liquidity and financial resources than us. With the limited resources we have available, we may experience great difficulties in expanding and improving our network of computers to remain competitive. In addition, new ways for investors and market participants to invest in bitcoin and cryptocurrencies continue to develop. For example, in January 2024, a decade after initial applications were filed, the SEC approved a series of spot bitcoin exchange-traded products, which have received billions of dollars of inflows. We may be adversely affected by competition from other methods of investing in bitcoin. Competition from existing and future competitors, particularly those that have access to competitively priced energy, could result in our inability to secure acquisitions and partnerships and to successfully execute our business plan. If we are unable to compete effectively, our business could be negatively affected.
 Risks Related to our Datacenter and Power Generation Operations
 Our future success will depend significantly on the price of bitcoin, which is subject to risk and has historically been subject to wide swings and significant volatility.
 Our operating results will depend significantly on the price of bitcoin. Specifically, our revenues from our cryptocurrency datacenter operations are based principally on two factors: (1) our mining payouts from our third-party mining pools; and (2) the price of bitcoin. Accordingly, a decrease in the price of bitcoin will result in a decrease in our revenues. Moreover, the price of bitcoin has historically been subject to wide swings and significant volatility. This means that our operating results may be subject to significant volatility.
 Bitcoin prices have historically been volatile and impacted by a variety of factors, including market perception, the degree to which bitcoin is accepted as a means of payment, the volume of purchases and sales of bitcoin by market participants, real or perceived competition from alternative cryptocurrencies as well as other risks and uncertainties described in this Annual Report.
 While some retail and commercial outlets accept bitcoin as a means of payment, consumers' payment by bitcoin to such retail and commercial outlets remains limited. Conversely, a significant portion of bitcoin demand is generated by speculators and investors seeking to profit from the short- or long-term holding of bitcoin. Many industry commentators believe that bitcoin's best use case is as a store of wealth, rather than as a currency for transactions, and that other cryptocurrencies having better scalability and faster settlement times will better serve as currency. This could limit bitcoin's acceptance as transactional currency. A lack of expansion by bitcoin into retail and commercial markets, or a contraction of such use, may result in increased volatility or a reduction in the price of bitcoin, either of which could adversely affect our results of operations.

 The properties utilized by us in our cryptocurrency datacenter and hosting may experience damage, including damage not covered by insurance.
 Our current cryptocurrency datacenter operations in Torrey, New York are, and any future cryptocurrency datacenter operations that we establish or host will be, subject to a variety of risks relating to physical condition and operation, including:
 • the presence of construction or repair defects or other structural or building damage;
 • any noncompliance with or liabilities under applicable environmental, health or safety regulations or requirements or building permit requirements;
 • any damage resulting from natural disasters, such as hurricanes, earthquakes, fires, floods and windstorms;
 • damage caused by criminal actors, such as cyberattacks, vandalism, sabotage or terrorist attacks; and
 • claims by employees and others for injuries sustained at our properties.
 Any of these could render our cryptocurrency datacenter, hosting and/or power generation operations inoperable, temporarily, or permanently, and the potential impact on our business is currently magnified because we operate the majority of our cryptocurrency datacenter operations from a single location. The security and other measures we take to protect against these risks may be insufficient or unavailable. Apart from $15 million in coverage of our bitcoin mining equipment, which is subject to certain deductibles, our power plant property is not insured by any third-party insurance provider and our ability to self-insure may not be adequate to cover the losses we suffer as a result of the aforementioned risks, which could materially and adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.
 We are subject to risks related to Internet disruptions, which could have an adverse effect on our ability to host bitcoin miners and to mine bitcoin.
 In general, bitcoin and our business of hosting bitcoin miners and mining bitcoin is dependent upon the Internet. A significant disruption in Internet connectivity could disrupt a currency's network operations and have an adverse effect on the price of bitcoin and our ability to meet the minimum uptime requirements in our hosting agreements and mine bitcoin, which could, depending on the duration of the disruption, materially and adversely impact our results of operations.
 Bitcoin miners and other necessary hardware are subject to malfunction, technological obsolescence, the global supply chain, and difficulty and cost in obtaining new hardware.
 Our bitcoin miners are subject to malfunctions and normal wear and tear, and, at any point in time, a certain number of our bitcoin miners are typically off-line for maintenance or repair. The physical degradation of our miners will require us to replace miners that are no longer functional. Because we utilize many units of the same bitcoin miner models, if there is a model wide component malfunction whether in the hardware or the software that powers these miners, the percentage of offline miners could increase substantially, disrupting our operations. Any major bitcoin miner malfunction out of the typical range of downtime for normal maintenance and repair could cause significant economic damage to us.
 Additionally, as technology evolves, we may need to acquire newer models of miners to remain competitive in the market. New miners can be costly and may be in short supply. Given the long production period to manufacture and assemble bitcoin miners and the current global semiconductor chip shortage, we can provide no assurance that we can acquire enough bitcoin mining computers or replacement parts on a cost-effective basis – or at all – for the maintenance and expansion of our cryptocurrency datacenter operations. We rely on third parties to supply us with bitcoin miners, and shortages of bitcoin miners or their component parts, material increases in bitcoin miner costs, or delays in delivery of our orders, including due to trade restrictions, and other global events that may create supply chain disruptions, could significantly interrupt our plans for expanding our bitcoin mining capacity in the near-term and future.
 This upgrading and replacement process requires substantial capital investment and we may face challenges in doing so on a timely and cost-effective basis. Shortages of bitcoin mining computers could result in reduced bitcoin mining capacity and increased operating costs, which could materially delay the completion of our planned cryptocurrency datacenter capacity expansion and put us at a competitive disadvantage.

 We are exposed to the impact of market price changes in bitcoin on our bitcoin holdings.
 We hold a significant amount of bitcoin and are exposed to the impact of market price changes in bitcoin on our bitcoin holdings. Declines in the fair market value of bitcoin will impact the cash value that would be realized if we were to sell our bitcoin for cash, therefore having a negative impact on our liquidity.

 Our operations and financial performance may be impacted by fuel supply disruptions, price fluctuations in the wholesale power and natural gas markets, and fluctuations in other market factors that are beyond our control.
 Our power generation depends on our purchases of fuel and other products consumed during the production of electricity from a number of suppliers. Our operations and financial performance generally may be impacted by changes in the supply of fuel and other required products, price fluctuations in the wholesale power and natural gas markets, and other market factors beyond our control.
 Delivery of these fuels to our facilities is dependent upon fuel transmission or transportation infrastructure, storage, and inventory of fuel stocks, as well as the continuing financial viability of contractual counterparties. As a result, we are subject to the risks of disruptions or curtailments in the production of power at our generation facility if fuel is limited or unavailable at any price, if a counterparty fails to perform, or if there is a disruption in the fuel delivery infrastructure. Disruption in the delivery of fuel, including disruptions as a result of weather, transportation difficulties, global demand and supply dynamics, labor relations, environmental regulations or the financial viability of fuel suppliers, could adversely affect our ability to operate our facilities, which could result in lower power sales and/or higher costs to our cryptocurrency datacenter operations and thereby adversely affect our results of operations.
 Separate from supply, market prices for power, capacity, ancillary services, natural gas, and oil are volatile, unpredictable and tend to fluctuate substantially. Disruptions in our fuel supplies may require us to find alternative fuel sources at higher costs, to find other sources of power to deliver to counterparties at a higher cost, or to pay damages to counterparties for failure to deliver power as contracted. Unlike most other commodities, electric power can only be stored on a very limited basis and generally must be produced concurrently with its use. As a result, power prices and our costs are subject to significant volatility due to supply and demand imbalances, especially in the day-ahead and spot markets. We buy significant quantities of fuel on a short-term or spot market basis. Prices for the natural gas that we purchase fluctuate, sometimes rising or falling significantly over a relatively short period of time. The price we can obtain for the sale of power may not rise at the same rate, or may not rise at all, to match a rise in fuel or delivery costs. Further, any changes in the costs of natural gas or transportation rates, changes in the relationship between such costs and the market prices of power, or an inability to procure fuel for physical delivery at prices that we consider favorable could all adversely affect our operations, the costs of meeting our obligations, and the profitability of our cryptocurrency datacenter, and thus, our operations and financial performance. Volatility in market prices for fuel and electricity may result from a number of factors outside of our control, including:
 • changes in generation capacity in our markets, including the addition of new supplies of power as a result of the development of new plants, expansion of existing plants, the continued operation of uneconomic power plants due to state subsidies, or additional transmission capacity;
 • disruption to, changes in or other constraints or inefficiencies of electricity, fuel or natural gas transmission, or transportation;
 • electric supply disruptions, including plant outages and transmission disruptions;
 • changes in market liquidity;
 • weather conditions, including extreme weather conditions and seasonal fluctuations, including the effects of climate change;
 • changes in commodity prices and the supply of commodities, including but not limited to natural gas and oil;
 • changes in the demand for power or in patterns of power usage, including the potential development of demand-side management tools and practices, distributed generation, and more efficient end-use technologies;
 • development of new fuels, new technologies, and new forms of competition for the production of power;
 • fuel price volatility;
 • changes in capacity prices and capacity markets;

 • federal, state, and foreign governmental environmental, energy, and other regulation and legislation, including changes therein and judicial decisions interpreting such regulations and legislation;
 • the creditworthiness and liquidity of fuel suppliers and/or transporters and their willingness to do business with us; and
 • general economic and political conditions.
 Such factors and the associated fluctuations in power and natural gas prices have affected our wholesale power generation profitability and cost of power for cryptocurrency datacenter activities in the past and will continue to do so in the future.
 Changes in technology may negatively impact the value of our New York Facility and any future power plants.
 Research and development activities are ongoing in the industry to provide alternative and more efficient technologies to produce power. There are alternate technologies to supply electricity, most notably fuel cells, micro turbines, batteries, windmills, and photovoltaic (solar) cells, the development of which are currently being subsidized and expanded by the State of New York, where we currently operate (as well as by state or local governments in areas where we may operate in the future), to address global climate change concerns. It is possible that technological advances will reduce the cost of alternative generation to a level that is equal to or below that of certain central station production. Also, as new technologies are developed and become available, the quantity and pattern of electricity usage by customers could decline, with a corresponding decline in revenues derived by generators. These alternative energy sources could result in a decline to the dispatch and capacity factors of our New York Facility. As a result of these factors, we may experience material declines in our power generation revenue.
 We sell capacity, energy, and ancillary services to the wholesale power grid managed by the NYISO. Our business may be affected by the actions of nearby states or other governmental actors in the competitive wholesale marketplace.
 We sell capacity, energy, and ancillary services to the wholesale power grid managed by the NYISO. The competitive wholesale marketplace may be impacted by out-of-market subsidies provided by states or state entities, including bailouts of uneconomic nuclear plants, imports of power from Canada, renewable mandates or subsidies, mandates to sell power below our cost of acquisition and associated costs, as well as out-of-market payments to new or existing generators. These out-of-market subsidies to existing or new generation undermine the competitive wholesale marketplace, which can lead to decreased energy market revenues or premature retirement of existing facilities, including those owned by us. If these measures continue, capacity and energy prices may be suppressed, and we may not be successful in our efforts to insulate the competitive market from this interference. Our wholesale power revenue may be materially impacted by rules or regulations that allow regulated utilities to participate in competitive wholesale markets or to own and operate rate-regulated facilities that provide capacity, energy, and ancillary services that could be provided by competitive market participants.
 The availability and cost of emission allowances could adversely impact our costs of operations.
 We are required to maintain, through either allocations by regulators or purchases on the open market, sufficient emission allowances to account for emissions of SO2, CO2, and NOx attributable to our power generation facilities. These allowances are used to meet the obligations imposed on us by various applicable environmental laws. If our operational needs require more than our allocated allowances, we may be forced to purchase such allowances on the open market, which could be costly. If we are unable to maintain sufficient emission allowances to match our operational needs, we may have to curtail our operations so as not to exceed our available emission allowances, or install costly new emission controls. As we use the emission allowances that we have purchased on the open market, costs associated with such purchases will be recognized as operating expense. A material increase in the price of allowances we need to purchase would adversely impact our financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations.
 Our financial performance could be materially and adversely affected if energy market participants continue to construct additional generation facilities (i.e., new-build) or expand or enhance existing generation facilities despite relatively low power prices and such additional generation capacity results in a reduction in wholesale power prices or more competition from cryptocurrency datacenter competitors with access to cheaper supplies of electricity.
 Given the overall attractiveness of the markets in which we operate, and certain tax benefits associated with renewable energy, among other matters, energy market participants have continued to construct new generation facilities (i.e., new-build) or invest in enhancements or expansions of existing generation facilities despite relatively low wholesale power

 prices. If this market dynamic continues, and/or if our cryptocurrency datacenter competitors begin to build or acquire their own power plants to fuel their cryptocurrency datacenter operations, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected if such additional generation capacity results in a cheaper supply of electricity to our cryptocurrency datacenter competitors or lower prices at which we sell capacity, energy, or ancillary services to the wholesale power grid.
 Maintenance, expansion, and refurbishment of power generation facilities involve significant risks that could result in unplanned power outages or reduced output and could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.
 Our facilities require periodic maintenance and repair. Any unexpected failure, including failure associated with breakdowns or forced outages, and any related unanticipated capital expenditures could result in reduced profitability from both loss of cryptocurrency datacenter operations and power generation. Such unexpected outages have occurred in the past, and may occur in the future, due to factors both within and outside of our control. We can provide no assurance that outages involving our power plant will not occur in the future, or that any such outage would not have a negative effect on our business and results of operations. In addition, we cannot be certain of the level of capital expenditures that will be required due to changing environmental laws (including changes in the interpretation or enforcement thereof), needed facility repairs and unexpected events (such as natural disasters or terrorist attacks). Unexpected capital expenditures could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition. If we significantly modify power generation equipment, we may be required to install the best available control technology or to achieve the lowest achievable emission rates, as such terms are defined under the new source review provisions of the Clean Air Act of 1963, which would likely result in substantial additional capital expenditures.

 Operation of power generation facilities involves significant risks and hazards that could disrupt or have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations, and we may not have adequate insurance to cover these risks and hazards. Our employees, contractors, customers, and the general public may be exposed to a risk of injury due to the nature of our operations.
 The conduct of our operations, including operation of our power plant, information technology systems, and other assets, is subject to a variety of inherent risks. These risks include the breakdown or failure of equipment, accidents, potential physical injury, hazardous spills and exposures, fires, property damage, security breaches, viruses or outages affecting information technology systems, labor disputes, obsolescence, delivery/ transportation problems and disruptions of fuel supply, performance below expected levels, or other financial liability, and may be caused to or by employees, customers, contractors, vendors, contractual or financial counterparties, other third parties, weather events, or acts of God.
 Operational disruptions or similar events may impact our ability to conduct our businesses efficiently and lead to increased costs, expenses, or losses. Planned and unplanned outages at our power plants may require us to curtail operation of the plant. Any reduced power supply could also have a negative impact on the cost structure of our cryptocurrency datacenter operations.
 These and other hazards can cause significant personal injury or loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property, plant and equipment, contamination of, or damage to, the environment and suspension of operations. Further, the employees and contractors of our operating affiliates work in, and customers and the general public may be exposed to, potentially dangerous environments at or near our operations. As a result, employees, contractors, customers, and the general public are at risk for serious injury, including loss of life.
 The occurrence of one or more of these events may result in us or our affiliates being named as a defendant in lawsuits asserting claims for substantial damages, including for environmental cleanup costs, personal injury and property damage and fines and/or penalties. We maintain an amount of insurance protection that we consider adequate, but we can provide no assurance that our insurance will be sufficient or effective under all circumstances and against all hazards or liabilities to which we may be subject and, even if we do have insurance coverage for a particular circumstance, we may be subject to a large deductible and maximum cap. A successful claim for which we are not fully insured could hurt our financial results and materially harm our financial condition. Further, due to rising insurance costs and changes in the insurance markets, we can provide no assurance that our insurance coverage will continue to be available at all or at rates or on terms similar to those presently available. Any losses not covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

 Our business is subject to substantial energy regulation and may be adversely affected by legislative or regulatory changes relating to climate change or policies regarding cryptocurrency mining, as well as liability under, or any future inability to comply with, existing or future energy regulations or requirements.
 Our business is subject to extensive U.S. federal, state, and local laws. Regulatory bodies, including the SEC, CFTC, federal energy regulators, and other financial oversight agencies, frequently modify and reinterpret existing rules, leading to inconsistencies across jurisdictions. Compliance with, or changes to, the requirements under these legal and regulatory regimes may cause us to incur significant additional costs or adversely impact our ability to continue operations as usual or compete on favorable terms with competitors. Failure to comply with such requirements could result in the shutdown of a non-complying facility, the imposition of liens, fines, civil or criminal liability, or costly litigation before the agencies or in state or federal court. Changes to these laws and regulations could result in temporary or permanent restrictions on certain operations at our facilities, including power generation or use in connection with datacenter operations, and compliance with or opposing such regulation may be costly.
 The regulatory environment has undergone significant changes in the last several years due to state and federal policies affecting wholesale competition and the creation of incentives for the addition of large amounts of new renewable generation and, in some cases, transmission. These changes are ongoing, and we cannot predict the future design of the wholesale power markets or the ultimate effect that the changing regulatory environment will have on our business.
 Various governmental and regulatory bodies, including legislative and executive bodies, in the United States and in other countries may adopt new laws and regulations, the direction and timing of which may be influenced by changes in the governing administrations and major events in the cryptocurrency industry. For example, following the failure of several prominent crypto trading venues and lending platforms, such as FTX, BlockFi, Celsius Networks, Voyager and Three Arrows Capital in 2022 (the "2022 Events"), the U.S. Congress expressed the need for both greater federal oversight of the cryptocurrency industry and comprehensive cryptocurrency legislation. In the near future, various governmental and regulatory bodies, including in the United States, may introduce new policies, laws, and regulations relating to crypto assets and the cryptocurrency industry generally, and crypto asset platforms in particular. The failures of risk management and other control functions at other companies that played a role in the 2022 Events could accelerate an existing regulatory trend toward stricter oversight of crypto asset platforms and the cryptocurrency industry. It is uncertain as to what effect stricter oversight and increased regulation on the cryptocurrency industry may have on the prices of bitcoin or the costs of regulatory compliance, both of which may impact our results of operations in the future and the market value of our common stock.

 In addition, in some of these markets, interested parties have proposed material market design changes, including the elimination of a single clearing price mechanism, as well as proposals to reinstate the vertically-integrated monopoly model of utility ownership or to require divestiture by generating companies to reduce their market share. If competitive restructuring of the electric power markets is reversed, discontinued, delayed, or materially altered, our business prospects and financial results could be negatively impacted. In addition, since 2010, there have been a number of reforms to the regulation of the derivatives markets, both in the United States and internationally. These regulations, and any further changes thereto, or adoption of additional regulations, including any regulations relating to position limits on futures and other derivatives or margin for derivatives, could negatively impact our ability to hedge our portfolio in an efficient, cost-effective manner by us, among other things, potentially decreasing liquidity in the forward commodity and derivatives markets or limiting our ability to utilize non-cash collateral for derivatives transactions.
 Obtaining and complying with required government permits and approvals may be time-consuming and costly.
 We and our affiliates are required to obtain, and to comply with, numerous permits and licenses from federal, state, and local governmental agencies. The process of obtaining and renewing necessary permits and licenses can be lengthy and complex, requiring up to months or years for approval depending on the nature of the permit or license and such process could be further complicated or extended in the event regulations change. In addition, obtaining such permit or license can sometimes result in the establishment of conditions that create a significant ongoing impact to the nature or costs of operations or even make the project or activity for which the permit or license was sought unprofitable or otherwise unattractive. In addition, such permits or licenses may be subject to denial, revocation, or modification under various circumstances. Failure to obtain or comply with the conditions of permits or licenses, or failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, may result in the delay or temporary suspension of our operations and electricity sales or the curtailment of our delivery of electricity to our customers and may subject us to penalties and other sanctions. Although various regulators routinely renew existing permits and licenses, renewal of our existing permits or licenses could be denied or jeopardized by various factors, including failure to provide adequate financial assurance for closure, failure to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations or permit conditions, local community, political or other opposition and executive, legislative, or regulatory action. For example, in June 2022 the NYSDEC denied the renewal of our air permit known as a Title V permit, one of our most significant environmental permits, on the basis of a New York environmental law. While we have appealed this denial and successfully secured the ability to continue to

 operate the New York Facility under our existing Title V permit during the pendency of the administrative and legal proceedings which remain ongoing, the ultimate outcome on our Title V permit renewal application remains uncertain.
 Our inability to procure and comply with the permits and licenses required for these operations, or the cost to us of such procurement or compliance, could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, new environmental legislation or regulation, if enacted, or changed interpretations of existing laws, may cause activities at our facilities to need to be changed to avoid violating applicable laws and regulations or eliciting claims that historical activities at our facilities violated applicable laws and regulations. In addition to the possible imposition of fines in the case of any such violations, we may be required to undertake significant capital investments and obtain additional operating permits or licenses, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

 Evolving expectations from investors, lenders, customers, government regulators and other market participants with respect to our ESG policies and the impacts of climate change may impose additional costs on us or expose us to additional risks.
 Companies across all industries and around the globe have faced scrutiny relating to their ESG policies. Investors, lenders, and other market participants continue to evaluate ESG practices, with some placing greater importance on the implications and social cost of their investments. This focus and activism related to ESG may hinder our access to capital, as investors and lenders may reconsider their capital investment allocation as a result of their assessment of our ESG practices. If we do not adapt to or comply with investor, lender, or other industry stakeholder expectations and standards and potential government regulations, which are evolving but may relate to the suitable deployment of electric power, or which are perceived to have not responded appropriately to the growing concern for ESG issues, our reputation may suffer, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 The SEC adopted a rule that requires climate disclosures in periodic and other filings with the SEC covering fiscal years beginning in 2025, however, this rule has been stayed pending the completion of a judicial review. If the rule takes effect in its current form, we may be required to establish additional internal controls, engage additional consultants and incur additional costs related to evaluating, managing and reporting on our environmental impact and climate-related risks and opportunities. If we fail to implement sufficient oversight or accurately capture and disclose on environmental matters, our reputation, business, operating results and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, increased public awareness and concern regarding environmental risks, including global climate change, may result in increased public scrutiny of our business and our industry, and our management team may divert significant time and energy away from our operations and towards responding to such scrutiny.

 In addition, the physical risks of climate change may impact the availability and cost of materials and natural resources, sources and supplies of energy, and demand for bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, and could increase our insurance and other operating costs, including, potentially, to repair damage incurred as a result of extreme weather events or to renovate or retrofit facilities to better withstand extreme weather events. If environmental laws or regulations or industry standards are either changed or adopted and impose significant operational restrictions and compliance requirements on our operations, or if our operations are disrupted due to physical impacts of climate change, our business, capital expenditures, results of operations, financial condition and competitive position could be negatively impacted.

 We could be materially and adversely affected if current regulations are implemented or if new federal or state legislation or regulations are adopted to address global climate change, or if we are subject to lawsuits for alleged damage to persons or property resulting from greenhouse gas emissions.
 There remains significant national and international attention on global climate change and the role of greenhouse gas emissions, such as CO2. Over the past several years, the U.S. Congress and state and federal authorities have considered and debated several proposals intended to address climate change using different approaches, including a cap on carbon emissions with emitters allowed to trade unused emission allowances (cap-and-trade), a tax on carbon or greenhouse gas emissions, limits on the use of generated power in connection with cryptocurrency mining, incentives for the development of low-carbon technology, and federal renewable portfolio standards. Federal and state courts continue to see climate-related litigation, with cases asserting damage claims related to greenhouse gas emissions, the rulings of which could establish adverse precedent that may apply to companies (including us) that produce greenhouse gas emissions. Our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected if new federal and/or state legislation or regulations are adopted to address global climate change or if we are subject to lawsuits for alleged damage to persons or property resulting from greenhouse gas emissions attributable to our operations.

 Risks Related to Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Industry
 If a malicious actor or botnet obtains control of more than 50% of the processing power on the bitcoin network, such actor or botnet could manipulate the network to adversely affect us, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
 If a malicious actor or botnet, a collection of computers controlled by networked software coordinating the actions of the computers, obtains control over 50% of the processing power dedicated to mining bitcoin, such actor may be able to construct fraudulent blocks or prevent certain transactions from completing in a timely manner, or at all. The malicious actor or botnet could control, exclude, or modify the order of transactions, though it could not generate new units or transactions using such control. The malicious actor could also "double-spend," or spend the same bitcoin in more than one transaction, or it could prevent transactions from being validated. In certain instances, reversing any fraudulent or malicious changes made to the bitcoin blockchain may not be possible.
 Although there are no known reports of malicious activity or control of blockchains achieved through controlling over 50% of the processing power on the bitcoin network, it is believed that certain mining pools may have exceeded, and could exceed, the 50% threshold on the bitcoin network. This possibility creates a greater risk that a single mining pool could exert authority over the validation of bitcoin transactions. To the extent that the bitcoin ecosystem, and the administrators of mining pools, do not have adequate controls and responses in place, the risk of a malicious actor obtaining control of the processing power may increase. If such an event were to occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, or operations and potentially the value of any bitcoin we mine or otherwise acquire or hold for our own account.
 If bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies are determined to be investment securities, and we hold a significant portion of our assets in such cryptocurrency, investment securities or non-controlling equity interests of other entities, we may inadvertently violate the Investment Company Act or other securities laws. We could incur large losses to modify our operations to avoid the need to register as an investment company or could incur significant expenses to register as an investment company or could terminate operations altogether.
 Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), a company may be deemed an investment company if the value of our investment securities is more than 40% of its total assets (exclusive of government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. At the present time, the SEC does not deem the bitcoin that we own, acquire or mine as an investment security, and we do not believe any of the bitcoin we own, acquire, or mine to be securities. However, SEC rules and applicable law are subject to change, especially in the evolving world of cryptocurrency, and further, the Investment Company Act analysis may not be uniform across all forms of cryptocurrency that we might mine or hold.
 If the SEC or other regulatory body were to determine that bitcoin, or any other cryptocurrency that we may mine or hold in the future, constitutes an investment security subject to the Investment Company Act, and if we were to hold a significant portion of our total assets in such bitcoin or other cryptocurrency as a result of our cryptocurrency datacenter activities and/or in investments in which we do not have a controlling interest, the investment securities we hold could exceed 40% of our total assets, exclusive of cash items. Such a situation could be hastened if we choose to hold more of our mined bitcoin or other cryptocurrency rather than converting our mined bitcoin or cryptocurrency in significant part to U.S. dollars.
 In such an event, we may determine that we have become an investment company. Limited exemptions are available under the Investment Company Act, including an exemption granting an inadvertent investment company a one-year grace period from registration as an investment company. In that year, we would be required to take actions to cause the investment securities held by us to be less than 40% of our total assets, which could include acquiring assets with our cash and bitcoin or other cryptocurrency on hand, liquidating our investment securities or bitcoin or seeking a no-action letter from the SEC if we are unable to acquire sufficient assets or liquidate sufficient investment securities in a timely manner. Such actions could require significant cost, disruption to our operations or growth plans, and diversion of management time and attention.
 If we were unable to qualify for an exemption from registration as an investment company, or fail to take adequate steps within the one-year grace period for inadvertent investment companies, we would need to register with the SEC as an investment company under the Investment Company Act or cease almost all business, and our contracts would become voidable. Investment company registration is time-consuming and would require a restructuring of our business.

 Moreover, the operation of an investment company is very costly and restrictive, as investment companies are subject to substantial regulation concerning management, operations, transactions with affiliated persons and portfolio composition, and Investment Company Act filing requirements. The cost of such compliance would result in us incurring substantial additional expenses, and the failure to register if required would have a materially adverse impact on our operations.
 Current regulation regarding the exchange of bitcoins under the CEA by the CFTC is unclear to the extent we become subject to regulation by the CFTC in connection with our exchange of bitcoin, we may incur additional compliance costs, which may be significant.
 The Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the "CEA"), does not currently impose any direct obligations on us related to the mining or exchange of bitcoins. Generally, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"), the federal agency that administers the CEA, regards bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as commodities. This position has been supported by decisions of federal courts.
 However, the CEA imposes requirements relative to certain transactions involving bitcoin and other digital assets that constitute a contract of sale of a commodity for future delivery (or an option on such a contract), a swap, or a transaction involving margin, financing or leverage that does not result in actual delivery of the commodity within 28 days to persons not defined as "eligible contract participants" or "eligible commercial entities" under the CEA (e.g., retail persons). Changes in the CEA or the regulations promulgated by the CFTC thereunder, as well as interpretations thereof and official promulgations by the CFTC, may impact the classification of bitcoins and, therefore, may subject them to additional regulatory oversight by the agency.
 We cannot be certain as to how future regulatory developments will impact the treatment of bitcoins under the law. Any requirements imposed by the CFTC related to our cryptocurrency datacenter activities or our transactions in bitcoin could cause us to incur additional extraordinary, nonrecurring expenses, thereby adversely affecting our results of operations. In addition, changes in the classification of bitcoins could subject us, as a result of our cryptocurrency datacenter operations, to additional regulatory oversight by the agency. Although to date the CFTC has not enacted regulations governing non-derivative or non-financed, margined or leveraged transactions in bitcoin, it has authority to commence enforcement actions against persons who violate certain prohibitions under the CEA related to transactions in any contract of sale of any commodity, including bitcoin, in interstate commerce (e.g., manipulation and engaging in certain deceptive practices).
 Moreover, if our cryptocurrency datacenter activities or transactions in bitcoin were deemed by the CFTC to constitute a collective investment in derivatives for our shareholders, we may be required to register as a commodity pool operator with the CFTC through the National Futures Association. Such additional registrations may result in extraordinary, non-recurring expenses, thereby materially and adversely impacting our results of operations. If we determine not to comply with such additional regulatory and registration requirements, we may seek to cease certain of our operations. Any such action may adversely affect our results of operations. While no provision of the CEA, or CFTC rules, orders, or rulings (except as noted herein) appears to be currently applicable to our business, this is subject to change.
 If federal or state legislatures or agencies initiate or release tax determinations that change the classification of bitcoins as property for tax purposes (in the context of when such bitcoins are held as an investment), such determination could have a negative tax consequence on us.
 Current IRS guidance indicates that digital assets such as bitcoin should be treated and taxed as property, and that transactions involving the payment of bitcoin for goods and services should be treated as barter transactions.
 While this treatment creates a potential tax reporting requirement for any circumstance where the ownership of a bitcoin passes from one person to another, usually by means of bitcoin transactions (including off-blockchain transactions), it preserves the right to apply capital gains treatment to those transactions which may adversely affect our results of operations. We can provide no assurance that the IRS will not alter its existing position with respect to digital assets in the future or that other state, local and non-U.S. taxing authorities or courts will follow the approach of the IRS with respect to the treatment of digital assets such as bitcoins for income tax and sales tax purposes. Any such alteration of existing guidance or issuance of new or different guidance may have negative consequences including the imposition of a greater tax burden on investors in bitcoin or imposing a greater cost on the acquisition and disposition of bitcoin, generally in either case potentially having a negative effect on the trading price of bitcoin or otherwise negatively impacting our business. In 2021, significant changes to U.S. federal income tax laws were proposed, including changes related to

 information reporting requirements with respect to digital assets. On June 28, 2024, the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued final regulations detailing these reporting requirements. A key component is the introduction of Form 1099-DA, which brokers are required to use to report gross proceeds from the sale of digital assets starting with transactions occurring on or after January 1, 2025. This means that transactions conducted in 2025 will be reported to the IRS in 2026. However, there have been legislative efforts to repeal certain aspects of these reporting requirements. In March 2025, both the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives voted to repeal the rule mandating decentralized finance (DeFi) cryptocurrency platforms to report detailed customer transactions to the IRS, reflecting bipartisan concerns over compliance costs and the unique nature of DeFi platforms. The future of these reporting requirements is uncertain, pending the finalization of the legislative process. If the repeal is finalized, it could impact the enforcement of the current reporting mandates. Therefore, the effect of these proposals, if enacted, on our operations remains uncertain.
 Regulatory changes or actions may alter the nature of an investment in us or restrict the use of bitcoin in a manner that adversely affects our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
 As bitcoin and cryptocurrencies generally have grown in both popularity and market size, governments around the world have reacted differently to them; certain governments have deemed them illegal, and others have allowed their use and trade without restriction. Based on stated efforts to curtail energy usage on mining, to protect investors or to prevent criminal activity, and in part to redirect interest into competing government-created cryptocurrencies, recent regulations have proliferated. Many jurisdictions, such as the United States, subject bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to extensive, and in some cases overlapping, unclear and evolving regulatory requirements.
 Such varying government regulations and pronouncements are likely to continue for the near future.
 In the United States., the Federal Reserve Board, U.S. Congress and certain U.S. agencies (e.g., the CFTC, the SEC, FinCEN, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation) have begun to examine the operations of the bitcoin network, bitcoin users and the bitcoin exchange market. Increasing regulation and regulatory scrutiny may result in new costs for us and our management having to devote increased time and attention to regulatory matters, change aspects of our business or result in limits on the use cases of bitcoin. In addition, regulatory developments and/or our business activities may require us to comply with certain regulatory regimes. For example, to the extent that our activities cause us to be deemed a money service business under the regulations promulgated by FinCEN under the authority of the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act, we may be required to comply with FinCEN regulations, including those that would mandate us to implement certain anti-money laundering programs, make certain reports to FinCEN and maintain certain records.
 Ongoing and future regulation and regulatory actions could significantly restrict or eliminate the market for or uses of bitcoin and/or materially and adversely impact our results of operation and financial condition.
 Latency in confirming transactions on a network could result in a loss of confidence in the network, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 Latency in confirming transactions on a network can be caused by a number of factors, such as bitcoin miners, also called transaction processors, ceasing to support the network and/or supporting a different network. To the extent that any transaction processors cease to record transactions on a network, such transactions will not be recorded on the blockchain of the network until a block is solved by a transaction processor that does not require the payment of transaction fees or other incentives. Currently, there are no known incentives for transaction processors to elect to exclude the recording of transactions in solved blocks. However, to the extent that any such incentives arise (for example, with respect to bitcoin, a collective movement among transaction processors or one or more mining pools forcing bitcoin users to pay transaction fees as a substitute for, or in addition to, the award of new bitcoin upon the solving of a block), transaction processors could delay the recording and verification of a significant number of transactions on a network's blockchain. If such latency became systemic, and sustained, it could result in greater exposure to double-spending transactions and a loss of confidence in the applicable network, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, increasing growth and popularity of digital assets, as well as non-digital asset-related applications that utilize blockchain technology on certain networks, can cause congestion and backlog, and as result, increase latency on such networks. An increase in congestion and backlogs could result in longer transaction confirmation times, an increase in unconfirmed transactions (that is, transactions that have yet to be included in a block on a network and therefore are not yet completed transactions), higher transaction fees and an overall decrease in confidence in a particular network, which could ultimately affect our ability to transact on that particular network and, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 The impact of geopolitical and economic events on the supply and demand for cryptoassets, including bitcoin, is uncertain.

 Geopolitical crises may motivate large-scale purchases of bitcoin and other cryptoassets, which could increase the price of bitcoin and other cryptoassets rapidly. Our business and the infrastructure on which our business relies is vulnerable to damage or interruption from catastrophic occurrences, such as war, civil unrest, terrorist attacks, geopolitical events, disease, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and similar events. Specifically, the uncertain nature, magnitude, and duration of hostilities stemming from the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, including the potential effects of sanctions limitations, the conflict in the Israel-Gaza region, continued hostilities in the Middle East, potential conflicts in the Asia-Pacific region, retaliatory cyber-attacks on the world economy and markets, and potential shipping delays, have contributed to increased market volatility and uncertainty, which could have an adverse impact on macroeconomic factors that affect our business. For example, the U.S. inflation rate rose significantly from 2021 into 2022, then began to moderate through 2024, and future inflation trends remain uncertain and difficult to predict with a high degree of accuracy. These inflationary pressures, as well as disruptions in our supply chain, have increased the costs of most other goods, services, and personnel, which have in turn caused our capital expenditures and operating costs to rise. Sustained levels of high inflation caused the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks to increase interest rates, which have raised the cost of acquiring capital and reduced economic growth, either of which—or the combination thereof—could hurt the financial and operating results of our business. This may also increase the likelihood of a subsequent price decrease as crisis-driven purchasing behavior dissipates, adversely affecting the value of our inventory following such downward adjustment. Such risks are similar to the risks of purchasing commodities in general uncertain times, such as the risk of purchasing, holding, or selling gold. Alternatively, as an emerging asset class with limited acceptance as a payment system or commodity, global crises and general economic downturn may discourage investment in bitcoin as investors focus their investment on less volatile asset classes as a means of hedging their investment risk.

 As an alternative to fiat currencies that are backed by central governments, bitcoin, which is relatively new, is subject to supply and demand forces. How such supply and demand will be impacted by geopolitical events is largely uncertain but could be harmful to us. Political or economic crises may motivate large-scale acquisitions or sales of bitcoin either globally or locally. Such events could have a material adverse effect our results of operations.
 Changes in tariffs or import restrictions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 Equipment necessary for digital asset mining is almost entirely manufactured outside of the United States. There is currently significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and various other countries, including China, members of the European Union, Canada, and Mexico, with respect to trade policies, treaties, tariffs and customs duties, and taxes. In recent years, the U.S. government has imposed import tariffs of up to 25% on certain digital asset mining equipment manufactured overseas, increasing our costs of acquiring essential infrastructure. The presidential administration has proposed or enacted additional tariffs on key trading partners, including China, Canada, Mexico, and the European Union, which could further impact the cost and availability of mining equipment. Additionally, the recent expansion of tariffs on steel, aluminum, and other critical components may indirectly raise the cost of mining rigs, cooling systems and other necessary infrastructure. The scope and amount of these tariffs have fluctuated based on governmental actions, and there is a risk of further escalations, including counter-tariffs from affected countries. Any new or increased tariffs, trade restrictions or retaliatory measures could materially increase our capital expenditures, disrupt supply chains and reduce our ability to scale operations efficiently. Additionally, regulatory uncertainty surrounding trade policy makes long-term planning more difficult, which may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
 We may not adequately respond to rapidly changing technology.
 Competitive conditions within the bitcoin industry require that we use sophisticated technology in the operation of our business. The industry for blockchain technology is characterized by rapid technological changes, new product developments and evolving industry standards. New technologies, techniques or products could emerge that offer better performance than the software and other technologies that we utilize, and we may have to transition to these new technologies to remain competitive. We may not be successful in implementing new technology or doing so in a cost-effective manner. During the course of implementing any such new technology into our operations, we may experience system interruptions. Furthermore, we can provide no assurance that we will realize, in a timely manner or at all, the benefits that we may expect as a result of our implementing new technology into our operations. As a result, our results of operations may suffer.

 A failure to properly monitor and upgrade the bitcoin network protocol could damage the bitcoin network which could, in turn, have an adverse effect on our business.
 The open-source structure of the bitcoin network protocol means that the contributors to the protocol are generally not directly compensated for their contributions in maintaining and developing the protocol. As the bitcoin network protocol is not sold and its use does not generate revenues for contributors, contributors are generally not compensated for maintaining and updating the bitcoin network protocol. The lack of guaranteed financial incentive for contributors to maintain or develop the bitcoin network and the lack of guaranteed resources to adequately address emerging issues with the bitcoin network may reduce incentives to address issues adequately or in a timely manner. Because our cryptocurrency datacenter activities rely on the bitcoin network, negative developments with respect to that network may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 Over time, incentives for bitcoin miners to continue to contribute processing power to the bitcoin network may transition from a set reward to transaction fees. If the incentives for bitcoin mining are not sufficiently high, we and our hosting customers may not have an adequate incentive to continue to mine.
 In general, as the number of bitcoin rewards awarded for solving a block in a blockchain decreases, our ability to achieve profitability also decreases. Decreased use and demand for bitcoin rewards may adversely affect our incentive to expend processing power to solve blocks. If the bitcoin rewards for solving blocks and transaction fees are not sufficiently high, fewer bitcoin miners will mine. At insufficiently attractive rewards, our costs of operations in total may exceed our revenues from cryptocurrency datacenter activities.
 To incentivize bitcoin miners to continue to contribute processing power to the bitcoin network, such network may either formally or informally transition from a set reward to transaction fees earned upon solving for a block. This transition could be accomplished either by bitcoin miners independently electing to record in the blocks they solve only those transactions that include payment of a transaction fee or by the bitcoin network adopting software upgrades that require the payment of a minimum transaction fee for all transactions. If as a result transaction fees paid for bitcoin transactions become too high, bitcoin users may be reluctant to transfer bitcoin or accept bitcoin as a means of payment, and existing users may be motivated to hold existing bitcoin and switch from bitcoin to another digital asset or back to fiat currency for transactions, diminishing the aggregate amount of available transaction fees for bitcoin miners. Such reduction would adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.
 Incorrect or fraudulent cryptocurrency transactions may be irreversible.
 It is possible that, through computer or human error, theft or criminal action, our cryptocurrency could be transferred in incorrect amounts or to unauthorized third parties or accounts. In general, cryptocurrency transactions are irrevocable, and stolen or incorrectly transferred cryptocurrencies may be irretrievable, and we may have extremely limited or no effective means of recovering such cryptocurrencies. As a result, any incorrectly executed or fraudulent bitcoin transactions could adversely affect our business.
 The further development and acceptance of digital asset networks and other digital assets, which represent a new and rapidly changing industry, are subject to a variety of factors that are difficult to evaluate. The slowing or stopping of the development or acceptance of digital asset systems may adversely affect an investment in us.
 The use of cryptocurrencies to, among other things, buy and sell goods and services and complete transactions, is part of a new and rapidly evolving industry that employs cryptocurrency assets, including bitcoin, based upon a computer-generated mathematical and/or cryptographic protocol. Large-scale acceptance of bitcoin as a means of payment has not, and may never, occur. The growth of this industry in general, and the use of bitcoin in particular, is subject to a high degree of uncertainty, and the slowing or stopping of the development or acceptance of developing protocols may occur unpredictably. The factors include, but are not limited to:
 • continued worldwide growth in the adoption and use of bitcoin as a medium to exchange;
 • governmental and quasi-governmental regulation of bitcoin and its use, or restrictions on or regulation of access to and operation of the bitcoin network or similar cryptocurrency systems;
 • changes in consumer demographics and public tastes and preferences;
 • the maintenance and development of the open-source software protocol of the network;
 • the increased consolidation of contributors to the bitcoin blockchain through bitcoin mining pools;

 • the availability and popularity of other cryptocurrencies and other forms or methods of buying and selling goods and services, including new means of using fiat currencies;
 • the use of the networks supporting cryptocurrencies for developing smart contracts and distributed applications;
 • general economic conditions and the regulatory environment relating to cryptocurrencies;
 • environmental restrictions on the use of electricity to mine bitcoin and a resulting decrease in global bitcoin mining operations;
 • an increase in bitcoin transaction costs and a resultant reduction in the use of and demand for bitcoin; and
 • negative consumer sentiment and perception of bitcoin specifically and cryptocurrencies generally.
 The outcome of any of these factors could have negative effects on our results of operations and financial condition.
 It is possible that cryptocurrencies other than bitcoin could have features that make them more desirable to a material portion of the cryptocurrency user base and this could result in a reduction in demand for bitcoin, which could have a negative impact on the price of bitcoin and adversely affect us.
 Bitcoin holds a "first-to-market" advantage over other cryptocurrencies. This first-to-market advantage is driven in large part by having the largest user base and, more importantly, the largest combined mining power in use to secure their respective blockchains and transaction verification systems. More users and miners make a cryptocurrency more secure, which makes it more attractive to new users and miners, resulting in a network effect that strengthens this first-to-market advantage.
 Despite the first-to-market advantage of the bitcoin network over other cryptocurrency networks, it is possible that another cryptocurrency could become comparatively more popular. If an alternative cryptocurrency obtains significant market share—either in market capitalization, mining power or use as a payment technology—this could reduce bitcoin's market share and value. Substantially all of our cryptocurrency datacenter revenue is derived from mining bitcoin and, while we may mine other cryptocurrencies in the future, we have no plans to do so currently and may incur significant costs if we choose to do so. For example, our current application-specific integrated circuit machines (i.e., our "miners") are principally utilized for mining bitcoin and cannot mine other cryptocurrencies that are not mined utilizing the SHA-256 algorithm. As a result, the emergence of a cryptocurrency that erodes bitcoin's market share and value could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 We may be adversely affected by competition from other methods of investing in bitcoin.
 We compete with other users and/or companies that are mining bitcoin or providing investors exposure to bitcoin without direct purchases of bitcoin and with other potential financial vehicles linked to cryptocurrency, including securities backed by or linked to bitcoin through entities similar to it. Market and financial conditions, and other conditions beyond our control, may make it more attractive to invest in such other entities, or to invest in bitcoin or other cryptocurrency directly, as opposed to investing in us. Conversely, given the nascence of cryptocurrency market within the broader investment market, investors may associate entities involved in cryptocurrency mining, trading or related services with each other, and thus, public reports of challenges at any of such other entities may have a negative impact on our business. Finally, the emergence of other financial vehicles; for example, in January 2024, a decade after initial applications were filed, the SEC approved a series of spot bitcoin exchange-traded products while continuing to warn investors to remain cautious about the risks associated with bitcoin and products whose value is tied to cryptocurrency, have been scrutinized by regulators and such scrutiny and any negative impressions or conclusions resulting from such scrutiny could be applicable to us and impact our business. Such circumstances could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 Digital assets, such as bitcoin, face significant scaling obstacles that can lead to high fees or slow transaction settlement times and any mechanisms of increasing the scale of digital asset settlement may significantly alter the competitive dynamics in the market.
 Digital assets may face significant scaling obstacles that can lead to high fees or slow transaction settlement times, and attempts to increase the volume of transactions may not be effective. Scaling digital assets, and particularly bitcoin, is essential to the widespread acceptance of digital assets as a means of payment, which is necessary to the growth and development of our business.

 Many digital asset networks face significant scaling challenges. For example, digital assets are limited with respect to how many transactions can occur per second. In this respect, bitcoin may be particularly affected as it relies on the "proof of work" validation, which due to its inherent characteristics may be particularly hard to scale to allow simultaneous processing of multiple daily transactions by users. Participants in the digital asset ecosystem debate potential approaches to increasing the average number of transactions per second that the network can handle and have implemented mechanisms or are researching ways to increase scale, such as "sharding," which is a term for a horizontal partition of data in a database or search engine, which would not require every single transaction to be included in every single miner's or validator's block. There is no guarantee that any of the mechanisms in place or being explored for increasing the scale of settlement of digital asset transactions will be effective, how long they will take to become effective or whether such mechanisms will be effective for all digital assets. There is also a risk that any mechanisms of increasing the scale of digital asset settlements may significantly alter the competitive dynamics in the digital asset market and may adversely affect the value of bitcoin. Any of these scaling challenges could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the market value of our common stock.
 The digital asset exchanges on which cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, trade are relatively new and largely unregulated, and thus may be exposed to fraud and business failure, as demonstrated by recent shutdowns of certain digital asset exchanges and trading platforms, which has negatively impacted confidence in the digital asset industry as a whole. Such failures may result in a reduction in the price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and can adversely affect an investment in us.
 Digital asset exchanges on which cryptocurrencies trade are relatively new and, in most cases, largely unregulated. Many digital exchanges do not provide the public with significant information regarding their ownership structure, management teams, corporate practices or regulatory compliance. These factors, and the recent shutdowns of certain digital asset exchanges and trading platforms due to fraud or business failure, including the recent bankruptcies of exchanges such as FTX and BlockFi, have negatively impacted confidence in the digital asset industry as a whole. The marketplace may lose confidence in, or may experience problems relating to, cryptocurrency exchanges, including prominent exchanges handling a significant portion of the volume of digital asset trading.
 Negative perception, a lack of stability in the digital asset exchange market and the closure or temporary shutdown of digital asset exchanges due to fraud, business failure, hackers or malware, or government-mandated regulation may reduce confidence in digital asset networks and result in greater volatility in bitcoin prices, which has a direct impact on our profitability. These potential consequences of a digital asset exchange's failure could adversely affect our results of operations. Additionally, to the extent investors view our common stock as linked to the value of bitcoin, these potential consequences of a bitcoin trading venue's failure could have a material adverse effect on the market value of our common stock.
 We are subject to momentum pricing risk.
 Momentum pricing typically is associated with growth stocks and other assets whose valuation, as determined by the investing public, reflects anticipated future appreciation in value. Cryptocurrency market prices are determined primarily using data from various exchanges, over-the-counter markets, and derivative platforms. Momentum pricing may have resulted, and may continue to result, in speculation regarding future appreciation in the value of cryptocurrencies and bitcoin in particular, inflating and making their market prices more volatile. As a result, they may be more likely to fluctuate in value due to changing investor confidence in future appreciation (or depreciation) in their market prices, which could adversely affect the value of bitcoin mined by us, which could lead to an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 Our reliance on third-party mining pool service providers for our mining payouts may have a negative impact on our business.
 We use third–party mining pools to receive our mining rewards from the network. Mining pools allow miners to combine their processing power, increasing their chances of solving a block and getting paid by the network. The rewards are distributed by the pool operator distributes the rewards, proportionally to our contribution to the pool's overall mining power used to generate each block. Should a pool operator's system suffer downtime for any reason, including, as a result of a cyber-attack, software malfunction, or other similar issues for any reason, it would negatively impact our ability to receive revenue. Furthermore, we are dependent on the accuracy of the mining pool operator's recordkeeping to accurately record the total processing power provided to the pool for a given bitcoin mining application in order to assess the proportion of that total processing power we provided. While we have internal methods of tracking both our

 processing power provided and the total used by the pool, the mining pool operator uses its own record-keeping to determine our proportion of a given reward. We have little means of recourse against the mining pool operator if we determine the proportion of the reward paid out to us by the mining pool operator is incorrect, other than leaving the pool. If we are unable to consistently obtain accurate proportionate rewards from our mining pool operators, we may experience reduced reward for our efforts, which would have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 Banks and financial institutions may not provide bank accounts, or may cut off certain banking or other financial services, to cryptocurrency investors or businesses that engage in bitcoin-related activities or that accept bitcoin as payment.
 A number of companies that engage in bitcoin or other cryptocurrency-related activities have been unable to find banks or financial institutions that are willing to provide them with bank accounts and other services. Similarly, changing governmental regulations about the legality of transferring or holding bitcoin and other cryptocurrency may prompt other banks and financial institutions to close existing bank accounts or discontinue banking or other financial services to such companies in the cryptocurrency industry, or even investors with accounts for transferring, receiving, or holding their cryptocurrency.

 Should such rules and restrictions continue or proliferate, we may not only be unable to obtain or maintain these services for our business but also experience business disruption if our necessary commercial partners, such as bitcoin mining pools or miner manufacturers, cannot conduct their businesses effectively due to such regulations. The difficulty that many businesses that provide bitcoin or derivatives on other cryptocurrency-related activities have and may continue to have in finding banks and financial institutions willing to provide them services may diminish the usefulness of bitcoin as a payment system and harm public perception of bitcoin. If we are unable to obtain or maintain banking services for our business as a result of our bitcoin-related activities or a disruption impacting our current banking providers, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
 Blockchain technology may expose us to specially designated nationals or blocked persons or cause us to violate provisions of law.
 We are subject to the rules enforced by The Office of Financial Assets Control of the US Department of Treasury ("OFAC"), including those prohibiting transactions with individuals and entities named on its specially designated nationals list. However, because of the pseudonymous nature of blockchain transactions, we may inadvertently and without our knowledge engage in transactions with persons named on OFAC'S specially designated nationals list. Regulators have raised concerns about the potential use of cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, to evade U.S. and international sanctions, particularly in response to geopolitical conflicts such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine and ongoing sanctions against Iran and North Korea. Since 2022, U.S. lawmakers and regulatory agencies have increased scrutiny of cryptocurrency transactions, with OFAC actively sanctioning crypto wallets linked to illicit activity and issuing enforcement actions against crypto firms for compliance failures. In April 2023, the U.S. Department of Justice charged several individuals with using cryptocurrencies to evade sanctions, signaling heightened enforcement. Additionally, the Biden administration has proposed stricter regulations on cryptocurrency mixers and privacy-enhancing technologies due to their potential use in money laundering and sanctions evasion. We are unable to predict the nature or extent of new and proposed legislation and regulation affecting the cryptocurrency industry, or the potential impact of the use of cryptocurrencies by specially designated nationals or other blocked or sanctioned persons, which could have material adverse effects on our business and our industry more broadly. Further, we may be subject to investigation, administrative or court proceedings, and civil or criminal monetary fines and penalties as a result of any regulatory enforcement actions, which could harm our reputation and adversely affect our results of operations.

 Risks Related to the Ownership of Our Securities
 Our Class A common stock has recently been subject to Nasdaq delisting proceedings. While we have previously regained compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements, there can be no assurance that we will regain compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements or that our Class A common stock will not be subject to delisting proceedings in the future. The delisting of our shares could negatively affect us and the price and liquidity of our Class A common stock.
 Compliance with certain Nasdaq listing requirements depends upon the price of our Class A common stock, which may be impacted by market factors not within our control. We have previously received and resolved noncompliance notices

 from the Nasdaq listing qualifications department but can provide no assurance that we will be able to continue to maintain compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements in the future.

 On March 26, 2025, we received a letter from the Nasdaq listing qualifications department notifying us that for the prior 30 consecutive business days, our Market Value of Publicly Held Shares ("MVPHS") had been below the listing requirement of $15 million. The Nasdaq rules provide us with an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the minimum MVPHS requirement. We can provide no assurance of our ability to take the appropriate actions within the 180 day cure period to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements.

 If Nasdaq delists our Class A common stock from trading on its exchange and we are not able to list our Class A common stock on another national securities exchange, we expect our securities could be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including, among other things: decreasing availability of market quotations for our Class A common stock; resulting in a determination that our Class A common stock is a "penny stock" which will require brokers trading in our Class A common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities; reducing the liquidity and market price of our Class A common stock; reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our Class A common stock, which could negatively impact our ability to raise equity financing; limiting our ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future; decreasing the amount of news and analyst coverage of us; and causing us reputational harm with investors, our employees, and parties conducting business with us.
 Because we are a "controlled company" within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing rules, our stockholders may not have certain corporate governance protections that are available to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies.
 So long as more than 50% of the voting power for the election of our directors is held by an individual, a group or another company, we will qualify as a "controlled company" within the meaning of Nasdaq's corporate governance standards. As of March 25, 2025, Atlas and its affiliates control 71.4% of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock. As a result, we are a "controlled company" within the meaning of Nasdaq's corporate governance standards and will not be subject to the requirements that would otherwise require us to have: (i) a majority of independent directors; (ii) compensation of our executive officers determined by a majority of the independent directors or a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors; and (iii) director nominees selected or recommended for our board either by a majority of the independent directors or a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors. Because we are a "controlled company", our stockholders may not have these corporate governance protections that are available to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies.
 Atlas and its affiliates may have their interest in us diluted as a result of future equity issuances or their own actions in selling shares of our common stock, in each case, which could result in a loss of the "controlled company" exemption under the Nasdaq listing rules. We would then be required to comply with those provisions of the Nasdaq listing requirements.
 The dual class structure of our common stock has the effect of concentrating voting power with Atlas and its affiliates, which may depress the market value of the Class A common stock and will limit a stockholder or a new investor's ability to influence the outcome of important transactions, including a change in control.
 While the economic rights of both classes of our common stock are the same, a share of Class A common stock has one (1) vote per share, while a share of Class B common stock has ten (10) votes per share. As of March 25, 2025, our Class B common stockholders represent approximately 70.0% of our voting power. Given the 10:1 voting ratio, even a significant issuance of Class A common stock, and/or a transaction involving Class A common stock as consideration, may not impact Atlas' significant majority voting position in us.
 We have enacted a dual class voting structure to ensure the continuity of voting control in us for the foreseeable future. The super voting rights of our Class B common stock do not expire until September 2026. As a result, for the foreseeable future, Atlas and its affiliates will be able to control matters submitted to stockholders for approval, including the election of directors, amendments of our organizational documents and any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, or other major corporate transactions.
 Atlas and its affiliates may have interests that differ from other stockholders and may vote their Class B common stock in a way with which other stockholders may disagree or which may be adverse to such other stockholders' interests. In addition, this concentrated control will have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of

 Greenidge, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their capital stock as part of a sale of Greenidge, and might have a negative effect on the market price of shares of our Class A common stock.
 Our issuance of a significant number of additional shares of Class A common stock in connection with any future financings, acquisitions, investments, commercial arrangements, under our stock incentive plans, or otherwise will dilute all other shareholders and our stock price could decline as a result.
 In July 2024, we entered into the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with B. Riley Principal II pursuant to which we agreed to issue up to an aggregate of 7,300,000 shares of Class A common stock for a 36-month period beginning on the Effective Date. We issued 1,595,855 shares under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement through the date of the filing of this Annual Report.
 In 2022, we entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (as amended, the "At Market Issuance Sales Agreement") with B. Riley Securities, Inc., pursuant to which we have issued an aggregate of 4,167,463 shares of Class A common stock through the date of the filing of this Annual Report.
 In December 2023, we entered into the Equity Exchange Agreement with Infinite Reality, pursuant to which we issued 180,000 shares of Class A common stock, and a one-year warrant to purchase 180,000 shares of Class A common stock.
 In February 2024, we entered into the Armistice SPA, pursuant to which we issued 450,300 shares of Class A common stock as SPA Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 810,205 shares of Class A common stock, which has been exercised in full, and the Armistice Warrant to purchase up to 1,260,505 shares of Class A common stock. We may continue to raise capital by selling shares of Class A common stock, or instruments convertible or exercisable for Class A common stock, through future equity offerings.

 In addition, we have issued equity compensation pursuant to our 2021 Equity Plan, as amended and restated, and certain inducement grants, and shares of Class A common stock in exchange for our debt pursuant to certain privately negotiated exchange agreements, as described under Note 5, "Debt", Note 6, "Stockholders' Deficit", and Note 17, "Subsequent Events—Debt Exchange Agreements".

 We cannot predict what effect, if any, actual or potential future sales of our Class A common stock will have on the market price of our Class A common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of our Class A common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could materially and adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.

 A significant portion of our total outstanding shares of Class A common stock are or will be registered for resale or will become eligible for resale under Rule 144, and may be sold into the market in the future. This could cause the market price of our Class A common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

 Sales of a substantial number of our Class A common stock could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of our Class A common stock.

 As of the date of the filing of this Annual Report, we have registered in a registration statement on Form S-1 up to 7,300,000 shares of Class A common stock issuable pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement that may be resold from time to time, over a 36-month period beginning on the Effective Date, by B. Riley Principal II, in a registration statement on Form S-8 up to 307,684 shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the vesting and exercise of non-qualified stock option inducement grants, in three registration statements on Form S-8 an aggregate of up to 1,583,111 shares of Class A common stock that may be delivered from time to time pursuant to past and future awards under our 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the "2021 Equity Plan"), and in a registration statement on Form S-3 up to 2,521,010 shares of Class A common stock issuable pursuant to the SPA that may be resold from time to time by Armistice.

 As the shares of Class A common stock registered pursuant to these registration statements can be freely sold in the public market, the market price of our Class A common stock could decline if the stockholders sell their shares or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them.

 In addition, we issued 180,000 shares of Class A common stock and a one-year warrant to purchase 180,000 shares of Class A common stock to Infinite Reality as restricted securities in private placements under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, which shares became eligible for resale under Rule 144 under the Securities Act in June 2024, and shares of

 Class A common stock in exchange for our debt pursuant to certain privately negotiated exchange agreements, as described under Note 5, "Debt", Note 6, "Stockholders' Deficit", and Note 17, "Subsequent Events—Debt Exchange Agreements".
 The market price, trading volume and marketability of our Class A common stock may be significantly affected by numerous factors beyond our control.
 The market price and trading volume of our Class A common stock may fluctuate or decline. The market price of our Class A common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, volatile. When the price of bitcoin declines, our stock price has historically fallen as well. We may experience similar declines on our market price in the future if our stock price continues to track the price of bitcoin. However, in late 2023 and 2024, the price of bitcoin has increased, in part
 due to the introduction of several spot bitcoin exchange-traded products, which have received billions of dollars of inflows.

 Furthermore, if the overall market for stocks of cryptocurrency-related issuers or the stock market in general experiences a loss of investor confidence, the market price of our stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, operating results or financial condition. The market price of our Class A common stock could be subject to arbitrary pricing factors that are not necessarily associated with traditional factors that influence stock prices or the value of non-cryptocurrency assets such as revenue, cash flows, profitability, growth prospects or business activity levels since the value and price, as determined by the investing public, may be influenced by future anticipated adoption or appreciation in value of cryptocurrencies or blockchains generally, factors over which we have little or no influence or control.
 Additionally, there are many other factors that are beyond our control that may materially and adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock, the marketability of our Class A common stock and our ability to raise capital through equity financings. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
 • the underlying volatility in pricing of, and demand for, energy and/or bitcoin;
 • price and volume fluctuations in the stock markets generally, which create highly variable and unpredictable pricing of equity securities;
 • actual or anticipated variations in our annual or quarterly results of operations, including our earnings estimates and whether we meet market expectations with regard to our earnings;
 • significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of companies in the sectors in which our business operates, which may not be related to the operating performance of these companies and which may not reflect the performance of our businesses;
 • loss of a major funding source;
 • operating performance of companies comparable to us;
 • changes in regulations or tax law, including those affecting the holding, transferring, or mining of cryptocurrency;
 • share transactions by principal stockholders;
 • the Company's continued listing on the Nasdaq;
 • recruitment or departure of key personnel;
 • geopolitical factors, including the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, the conflict in the Israel-Gaza region, and continued hostilities in the Middle East;
 • general economic trends and other external factors including inflation, new tariffs and interest rates;
 • increased scrutiny by governmental authorities or individual actors or community groups regarding our business, our competitors, or the industry in which we operate;
 • publication of research reports by analysts and others about us or the cryptocurrency mining industry, which may be unfavorable, inaccurate, inconsistent, or not disseminated on a regular basis;
 • sentiment of retail investors about our Class A common stock and business generally (including as may be expressed on financial trading and other social media sites and online forums);
 • speculation in the media or investment community about us or the cryptocurrency industry more broadly; and
 • the occurrence of any of the other risk factors included in this Annual Report.

 We are subject to ongoing public reporting requirements that are less rigorous than Exchange Act rules for companies that are not emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, and stockholders could receive less information than they might expect to receive from larger or more mature public companies.
 We qualify to publicly report on an ongoing basis as an "emerging growth company" (as defined in the JOBS Act) and a "smaller reporting company" (as defined in SEC rules) under the reporting rules set forth under the Exchange Act. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other Exchange Act reporting companies that are not emerging growth companies, including but not limited to:
 • not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
 • being permitted to include two, not three, years of audited financials in our Forms 10-K and other reduced financial disclosures;
 • being permitted to comply with reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements; and
 • being exempt from the requirement to hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
 In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This means that an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period and so our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
 We expect to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company or smaller reporting company. We can remain an emerging growth company for up to five years from our first sale of common stock pursuant to an effective Securities Act registration statement in 2021, although if the market value of our Class A common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million or more as of any June 30 before that time, we would cease to be an emerging growth company as of the following December 31. We also qualify as a smaller reporting company until our public float, as of the last day of our second fiscal quarter, exceeds $250 million; because our common stock held by our directors, executive officers and Atlas and its affiliates are excluded from the calculation of public float, we anticipate qualifying as a smaller reporting company for the near future.
 Because we will be subject to ongoing public reporting requirements that are less rigorous than Exchange Act rules for companies that are not emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, stockholders could receive less information than they might expect to receive from more mature or larger public companies, and the Class A common stock may experience less active trading or more price volatility as a result.
 We have not historically declared or paid a dividend on our shares of Class A common stock and, consequently, your ability to achieve a return on your investment has depended on appreciation in the price of our Class A common stock.
 We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. The declaration of dividends, if any, including the form in which they may be paid, will be subject to the discretion of our board, which may consider such factors as our results of operations, financial condition, capital needs and acquisition strategy, among others. The success of an investment in our Class A common stock will depend upon any future appreciation in the price of shares of our Class A common stock, as well as any dividend that our board may determine is advisable to declare or pay to holders of such shares. We can provide no assurance that the price of shares of our Class A common stock will appreciate above the price that a stockholder purchased its shares of Class A common stock and any potential dividend declared or paid thereon.
 Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law could make an acquisition of us more difficult, and limit attempts by stockholders to replace or remove current management.
 Provisions in our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, and our amended and restated bylaws may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control or changes in our management, including provisions that:
 • establish a dual-class common stock structure with ten (10) votes per share for the Class B common stock and one (1) vote per share for the Class A common stock;

 • vest solely in our board the power to fix the size of the board and fill any vacancies and newly created directorships;
 • provide that directors may only be removed by the majority in voting power of the shares of stock then outstanding and entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class;
 • establish advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by our stockholders at annual stockholder meetings; and
 • require, among other things, advance board approval or subsequent approval by the board and holders of 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder for any business combination with an interested stockholder, which is defined as a person or entity owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock or an affiliate or associate of us that owned 15% or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting stock at any time within a period of three years prior to the date of such determination, subject to certain exceptions.
 These provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by our stockholders to effect a change in control, or to replace or remove our current management by making it more difficult for our stockholders to replace members of the board of directors, which is responsible for appointing the members of management.
 We may not have sufficient resources to repay our Senior Notes upon their maturity in October 2026, and we will face additional risks if we incur additional indebtedness.
 As of December 31, 2024, we had $68.5 million of 8.50% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Senior Notes") outstanding. Given our current financial condition and liquidity position, we may not have sufficient resources to repay the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, upon their maturity on October 31, 2026, and our ability to earlier redeem or repurchase the Senior Notes, is uncertain. The indenture for the Senior Notes does not limit the amount of indebtedness that we or our subsidiaries may issue. As a result, we and our subsidiaries may be able to incur significant additional indebtedness. If we and our subsidiaries incur new indebtedness, the related risks that we face would be increased, and we may not be able to meet all our debt obligations, including repayment of the Senior Notes in 2026. If we incur any additional debt that is secured, the holders of that debt will be entitled to share in the proceeds distributed in connection with any enforcement against the collateral or an insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, or other winding-up of the applicable obligor prior to applying any such proceeds to the Senior Notes. As of December 31, 2024, we had $68.5 million of indebtedness, all of which was unsecured.
 Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation designates the Delaware Court of Chancery as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders and provides that claims relating to causes of action under U.S. federal securities laws may only be brought in U.S. federal district courts, which could limit the ability of our stockholders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us, our directors, officers, or employees, if any, and could discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, and employees, if any.
 Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our current or former directors, officers, employees or stockholders to us or our stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the second amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws or as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the laws of the State of Delaware. Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation also provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the U.S. federal district courts shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under U.S. federal securities laws.
 These exclusive forum provisions may limit the ability of our stockholders to bring a claim in a judicial forum that such stockholders find favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or employees, if any, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, and employees, if any. Alternatively, if a court were to find the choice of forum provisions contained in our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results.

 ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.
 None.

 ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY.

 Cybersecurity Risk Management

 We recognize the importance of assessing, identifying, and managing material risks associated with cybersecurity threats, as such term is defined in Item 106(a) of Regulation S-K, and have developed and implemented a cybersecurity risk management program intended to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our critical systems and information.

 Our cybersecurity risk management program is an integral component of our overall information security platform sharing common governance processes that monitor, prevent, detect, mitigate, and remediate cybersecurity incidents and guiding continuous improvement to our broader enterprise IT infrastructure.

 In support of our cybersecurity risk management program, we have adopted an Information Security Policy and Incident Response Plan. The Information Security Policy and Incident Response Plan establishes a comprehensive guide of controls and operating procedures to enable internal and external teams to prepare, detect, contain, and recover from cybersecurity incidents. Our cybersecurity risk management program also includes:

 • Cybersecurity risk assessments to evaluate our readiness if certain risks were to materialize;

 • Individuals, including management, employees, and external third party service providers, who are responsible for managing our cybersecurity risk assessment processes, our security controls, and our response to cybersecurity incidents;

 • The use of external service providers and tools, where appropriate, to assess, test, or otherwise assist with aspects of our security controls;

 • Cybersecurity awareness training of our employees, incident response planning and testing, and management; and

 • Third-party risk management processes for service providers, suppliers, and vendors.

 In 2024, we did not identify any cybersecurity threats that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. However, despite our efforts, we may not be successful in eliminating all risks from cybersecurity threats and can provide no assurance that undetected cybersecurity incidents have not occurred. See Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business" of this Annual Report for more information regarding the cybersecurity risks we face.

 Cybersecurity Governance

 Our Board considers cybersecurity risk as part of its risk oversight function and has delegated to the Audit Committee oversight of cybersecurity and other information technology risks. The Audit Committee oversees management's implementation of our cybersecurity risk management program. The Audit Committee reports to the full Board regarding its activities, including those related to cybersecurity. Management updates the Audit Committee, as necessary, regarding any material cybersecurity incidents, as well as any incidents with lesser impact potential.

 In addition, our management team, comprised of senior staff and executives from multiple departments within the Company, including IT, finance, legal, and operations, leads all efforts for our overall cybersecurity risk management program and supervises both our internal information security personnel with prior work experience in cybersecurity and our retained cybersecurity consultants.

 ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
 We own the approximately 106 MW nameplate natural gas power generation facility used by our Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation Segment, which is located on our 162-acre property in Torrey, New York. Our Torrey mining operations take place at this facility. This property is subject to a lease/leaseback relationship with the Yates

 County Industrial Development Agency. In consideration for certain incentives provided by the Yates County Industrial Development Agency, we are committed to certain investment and job creation obligations, all of which have been fulfilled. The primary obligations are the continuation of employment, including the Yates County Industrial Development Agency as an additional insured on various insurance policies and the completion of annual reporting forms. The payment in lieu of taxes agreement executed by the Yates County Industrial Development Agency and us provides predictability with respect to the increase in the annual real property tax burden on the power plant.
 We also own an additional 143 acres of land located in Torrey, New York. Approximately 29 acres are occupied by a landfill used to dispose of coal ash by the power plant's former owners.
 We own the 4.6-mile-long natural gas pipeline that runs from our power plant facility, to the connector pipeline in Milo, Yates County, New York. We also hold a series of easements and right-of-way agreements with landowners through whose land the pipeline runs.

 On April 10, 2024, we purchased a parcel of land containing approximately 12 acres located in Columbus, Mississippi, including over 73,000 square feet of industrial warehouse space. This property provides us with access to an additional 32.5 MW in power capacity, and we deployed 7 MW of miners at the Mississippi Facility in the second quarter of 2024.
 We have also deployed additional miners in conjunction with a 7.5 MW mining capacity lease in North Dakota, which has a term of five years and provides us with energy to power mining at a cost of $58.50/MWh.
 We owned and operated a datacenter and approximately 152 acres of land in Spartanburg, South Carolina for development. On November 9, 2023, we closed the sale of the South Carolina Facility to complete the deleveraging transaction with NYDIG. On November 27, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell the remaining 152 acre property to Data Journey. This transaction is expected to close in 2025 and this land was classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2024.

 ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
 From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise and harm our business. Other than as set forth in Note 10, "Commitments and Contingencies" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report, including, without limitation, the subsection titled "Title V Air Permit Renewal Litigation," which is incorporated herein by reference, we are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or operating results.

 ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES.
 Not applicable.

 ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.
 Market Information for Our Class A Common Stock
 Greenidge's Class A common stock is listed under the ticker symbol "GREE" on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, which is
 the principal market for such stock. As of December 31, 2024, 10,292,233 shares of Greenidge Class A common stock were issued and outstanding. Our Class B common stock is not listed or traded on any stock exchange.
 Holders of Record
 As of March 25, 2025, we had 37 registered holders of our Class A common stock, including Cede & Co., the nominee for the Depository Trust Company and 7 registered holders of our Class B common stock. The Class A common stock registered holders' number excludes stockholders whose stock is held in nominee or street name by brokers.
 Dividend Policy
 We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. The declaration of dividends, if any, including the form in which they may be paid, will be subject to the discretion of our board, which may consider such factors as our results of operations, financial condition, capital needs and acquisition strategy, among others.
 Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities and Use of Proceeds
 Debt Exchange Agreements. During the fourth quarter of 2024, we entered into privately negotiated exchange agreements, pursuant to which we issued shares of our Class A common stock in exchange for principal amounts of our Senior Notes. From the date of the first exchange to the date of this Annual Report, we issued 1,335,889 shares of our Class A common stock in exchange for $5.5 million aggregate principal amount of our Senior Notes, of which 692,433 shares were exchanged for $3.7 million aggregate principal amount of our Senior Notes during the year ended December 31, 2024. Such transactions were exempt from registration under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.

 ITEM 6. RESERVED

 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included herein. Among other things, those financial statements include more detailed information regarding the basis of presentation for the following information. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and are presented in U.S. dollars. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under "Risk Factors," "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and elsewhere in this Annual Report, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. You should carefully review the sections titled "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in this Annual Report.

 Overview
 We own cryptocurrency datacenter operations in Torrey, New York, Columbia, Mississippi, lease property for purposes of operating a cryptocurrency datacenter in Underwood, North Dakota and previously owned and operated a facility in Spartanburg, South Carolina (collectively, the "facilities"). The New York Facility is a vertically integrated cryptocurrency datacenter and power generation facility with an approximately 106 MW nameplate capacity, natural gas power

 generation facility. We generate revenue from four primary sources: (1) datacenter hosting, which we commenced on January 30, 2023, (2) cryptocurrency mining, and (3) power and capacity.
 We generate all the power we require for operations in the New York Facility, where we enjoy relatively lower market prices for natural gas due to our access to the Millennium Gas Pipeline price hub. We believe our competitive advantages include efficiently designed mining infrastructure and in-house operational expertise that we believe is capable of maintaining a higher operational uptime of miners. We are mining bitcoin and hosting bitcoin miners, which contributes to the security and transactability of the bitcoin ecosystem while concurrently supplying power to assist in meeting the power needs of homes and businesses in the region served by our New York Facility.
 Our datacenter operations consist of approximately 30,700 miners with approximately 3.3 EH/s of combined capacity for both datacenter hosting and cryptocurrency mining, of which 18,200 miners or 1.8 EH/s, are associated with datacenter hosting and 12,500 miners, or 1.5 EH/s are associated with our cryptocurrency mining. In 2023, prior to the South Carolina transaction, our datacenter operations consisted of approximately 42,300 miners with approximately 4.6 EH/s of combined capacity for both datacenter hosting and cryptocurrency mining, of which 32,100 miners, or 3.4 EH/s, were associated with datacenter hosting and 10,200 miners, or 1.2 EH/s, were associated with Greenidge's cryptocurrency mining.

 Discontinued Operations
 The contract with Support.com's largest customer expired on December 31, 2022 and was not renewed and the business ceased operations in 2023. As a result, we have classified the Support.com business as held for sale and discontinued operations in these condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of management and the board of directors making a decision to pursue alternatives for the Support.com business and to strictly focus on its cryptocurrency mining, datacenter hosting and power generation operations. See Note 3, "Discontinued Operations" of our audited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

 Revenue per MWh for datacenter hosting, cryptocurrency mining and power and capacity are used by management to consider the extent to which we may generate electricity to either produce cryptocurrency or sell power to the New York wholesale power market. Cost of revenue (excluding depreciation) per MWh represents a measure of the cost of natural gas, emissions credits, payroll and benefits and other direct production costs associated with the MWh's produced to generate the respective revenue category for each MWh utilized. Depreciation expense is excluded from the cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation) per MWh metric; therefore, not all cost of revenues for datacenter hosting, cryptocurrency mining and power and capacity are fully reflected. To the extent any other cryptocurrency datacenters are public or may go public, the cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation) per MWh metric may not be comparable because some competitors may include depreciation in their cost of revenue figures.
 Average bitcoin price is derived from the daily average bitcoin price at open as reported by Coinbase, a leading cryptocurrency exchange.

 Average hashrate is Greenidge's average computing power over the period supplied to pool operators, which is measured using data from the pool operators.

 Average difficulty is a measure of how difficult and time-consuming it is to find the right hash to solve the algorithm on the blockchain in order to receive a reward. Difficulty increases or decreases over time, depending on the amount of hashrate being provided to the network. It is the number of hashes it takes to solve the algorithm on the bitcoin blockchain. Our measure of Average difficulty is derived from the daily average difficulty reported by Coinmetrics, a leading provider of crypto financial intelligence.
 Revenue
 On January 30, 2023, upon entering into the NYDIG Hosting Agreement, we transitioned the majority of the capacity of our owned datacenter facilities to datacenter hosting operations. We entered into hosting arrangements at third party sites for the remaining owned miners in the first and second quarters of 2023 which were terminated in the second quarter of 2024.
 At December 31, 2024, Greenidge datacenter operations consisted of approximately 30,700 miners with approximately 3.3 EH/s of combined capacity for both datacenter hosting and cryptocurrency mining, of which 18,200 miners, or 1.8 EH/s, is associated with datacenter hosting and 12,500 miners, or 1.5 EH/s, is associated with Greenidge's cryptocurrency mining.
 Cryptocurrency mining revenue
 For our cryptocurrency mining revenue, we generate revenue in the form of bitcoin by earning bitcoin as rewards and transaction fees for supporting the global bitcoin network with application-specific integrated circuit computers ("ASICs" or "miners") owned by us. Our cryptocurrency mining revenue decreased by $5.2 million, or 21%, to $19.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2024.
 We estimate that the decrease was primarily driven by the 13% decrease in average hashrate for company owned miners. The decline in average hashrate is attributable to our focus on maximizing profitability by prioritizing operations of our most efficient miners and curtailing operations of less efficient miners during periods of decreased profitability. The 68% increase in the difficulty factor and the lower bitcoin rewards as a result of the halving was offset by the 129% increase in the average price of bitcoin year-over-year.

 The miners associated with our cryptocurrency mining for the year ended December 31, 2024 were comprised as follows:

 Bitmain S19
 4,000

 Bitmain S19 Pro
 2,000

 Bitmain S19j Pro

 Bitmain S19 XP
 4,800

 Bitmain S19 Hydro

 Bitmain S21 Pro

 12,500

 As of December 31, 2024, our fleet of miners ranged in age from 0.2 to 3.3 years and had an average age of approximately 2.25 years. We do not have scheduled downtime for our miners. When we have unscheduled downtime, we may from time to time replace a miner with a substitute miner to minimize overall fleet downtime. As of December 31, 2024, our fleet of miners ranged in efficiency from approximately 15.0 to 34.0 joules per terahash ("J/TH") and had an average efficiency of 27.4 J/TH.

 Datacenter hosting revenue
 Under the NYDIG Hosting Agreement, we generate revenue from a reimbursement fee that covers the cost of power and direct costs associated with management of the mining facilities, a hosting fee and a gross profit-sharing arrangement. The arrangement covers substantially all of our current mining capacity at the New York Facility. The South Carolina Facility was dedicated to hosting from February 2023 through the date of the sale of such facility on November 15, 2023. We generated revenue of $29.8 million and $39.5 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively. This decrease of $9.6 million was mainly due to the sale of the South Carolina Facility in the fourth quarter of 2023, which accounted for a $12.4 million decrease in hosting revenue. The New York Facility hosting revenue increased by $2.4 million, primarily due to an additional month of hosting in 2024, as the contract commenced at the end of January 2023.
 Power and capacity revenue
 Power and capacity revenue at our New York Facility is earned when we sell capacity and energy and ancillary services to the wholesale power grid managed by the NYISO. Through these sales, we earn revenue in three streams, including: (1) power revenue received based on the hourly price of power, (2) capacity revenue for committing to sell power to the NYISO when dispatched and (3) other ancillary service revenue received as compensation for the provision of operating reserves.
 Our power and capacity revenue increased $4.0 million, or 59%, to $10.6 million in 2024. We estimate that higher power and capacity sales volume due to increased demand and higher average power and capacity prices caused revenue increases of approximately 23% and 36%, respectively.

 Total cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation, decreased $9.9 million, or 19%, to $41.1 million during 2024 as compared to the prior year. We estimate the decrease is comprised of the following:
 • The South Carolina Facility contributed 24% of cost of revenue in 2023, as compared to no activity at the facility in 2024 following the sale in the fourth quarter of 2023.

 • The cancellation of third-party hosting contracts in the second quarter of 2024 resulted in an 8% reduction to cost of revenue due to lower hosting fees;
 • Natural gas costs increased year-over-year by 12% as a result of 5% higher volume usage by the New York Facility, as well as a 6% increase in natural gas prices year-over-year.
 Our New York Facility allocates its cost of revenue between datacenter hosting, cryptocurrency mining and power and capacity based on their respective MWh consumption on a pro rata basis.
 Selling, general and administrative expenses
 Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $8.9 million, or 34%, to $17.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the prior year period. The main drivers of the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses were:
 • Total restructuring costs decreased approximately $4.1 million in 2024 compared to the prior year, mainly as a result of non-recurring restructuring costs incurred in the prior year;
 • Total payroll and benefits and other employee costs decreased approximately $1.2 million in 2024 compared to the prior year, as a result of declines in employee expenses including incentive compensation as result of the restructuring activities in the prior year to reduce our cost structure;
 • Total insurance expense decreased approximately $2.2 million in 2024 compared to the prior year, as a result of declines in coverage related to umbrella, property, and liability policies;
 • Total legal costs decreased approximately $1.2 million in 2024 compared to the prior year, as a result of declines in attorney and legal counsel fees, primarily as a result of fewer significant transactions in 2024, as compared to 2023;

 • Total stock compensation decreased approximately $0.5 million in 2024 compared to the prior year, as a result of a decline in amortized expense relating to RSUs with a higher grant date fair value, which was offset partially by an increase in amortized expense relating to options granted in prior periods.
 We recognized a gain on digital assets of $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as a result of measuring digital assets at fair value due to our adopting ASU 2023-08, Accounting for Disclosure of Crypto Assets, on January 1, 2024. This is compared to a gain on sale of digital assets of $0.5 million recognized during the year ended December 31, 2023, which is presented in Other (expense) income. The increase in the gain was a result of our transition to a bitcoin self-mining retention strategy in the third quarter of 2024, as well as the increase in the price of bitcoin.
 We recognized a loss on the sale of assets of $0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, as a result of selling long-lived assets, comprising primarily of excess mining infrastructure equipment. This is compared to a gain on sale of assets of $9.9 million recognized during the year ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily a result of the sale of the South Carolina Facility.
 Depreciation decreased $0.1 million, or 1%, to $13.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the prior year period due to a lower asset base resulting from the sale of our South Carolina Facility during the fourth quarter of 2023, which was partially offset by the acquisition of miners and miner infrastructure during 2024.
 As a result of the impairment assessment conducted to evaluate future uses of the remaining real estate assets in South Carolina during the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized impairment charges of $4.0 million associated with long-

 lived assets to reduce the net book value of our company to fair value. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized impairment charges of $0.2 million related to damaged miners, which was equal to the remaining net book value of the miners. See Note 4, "Property and Equipment, Net", in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion of the impairment.
 Remeasurement of environmental liabilities
 We recognize environmental liabilities in accordance with ASC 410-30, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations. As of December 31, 2024 we have recognized environmental liabilities for a coal-ash pond and landfill which were inherited due to the legacy coal operations at our property in Torrey, New York. These costs are considered to be both probable and estimable. We have recorded a total environmental liability of $30.7 million and $30.2 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, for the remediation of these sites. We recognized a charge of $0.5 million and $2.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, for the remeasurement of environmental liabilities. The charges for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were as a result of an update in the cost estimates associated with the landfill post closure liabilities as part of our continuing evaluation of the site.
 We have estimated the cost of remediation by developing a remediation plan in consultation with environmental engineers, periodically obtaining quotes for estimated construction costs and adjusting estimates for inflationary factors based on the expected timing of the remediation work. Estimates include anticipated post-closure costs including monitoring and maintenance of the site. Estimates are based on various assumptions that are sensitive to changes including, but not limited to, closure and post-closure cost estimates, timing of expenditures, escalation factors, and requirements of granted permits. Additional material adjustments to the environmental liability may occur in the future due to required changes to the scope and timing of the remediation, changes to regulations governing the closure and remediation of CCR sites and changes to cost estimates due to inflationary or other economic factors.
 Operating loss from continuing operations
 As a result of the factors described above, operating loss from continuing operations was $11.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $16.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
 Total other expense, net
 During the year ended December 31, 2024, other expense, net decreased $3.7 million, or 31%, to $8.4 million primarily due to decreased interest expense as a result of the NYDIG debt extinguishment. This was partially offset by an impairment of equity securities of $0.9 million and change in fair value of warrant asset of $0.5 million.
 Our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 0.35%, which was lower than the statutory rate of 21% because we have a full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. We recorded and will continue to carry a full valuation allowance against our gross deferred tax assets that will not reverse against deferred tax liabilities within the scheduled reversal period. Our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2023 was 0.0%.
 Net Loss from continuing operations
 As a result of the factors described above, net loss from continuing operations decreased to $19.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $29.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
 Loss from discontinued operations
 In conjunction with our decision to pursue alternatives, including a sale of Support.com, we have reported the Support.com business as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements. Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax was $0.0 for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to a loss of $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. See Note 3, "Discontinued Operations", in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a further breakdown.

 Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations
 The following non-GAAP measures are intended to supplement investors' understanding of our financial information by providing measures which investors, financial analysts, and management use to help evaluate our operating performance. Items which we do not believe to be indicative of ongoing business trends are excluded from these calculations so that investors can better evaluate and analyze historical and future business trends on a consistent basis. Definitions of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similar definitions used by other companies. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA (loss) from continuing operations
 "EBITDA from continuing operations" is defined as loss from continuing operations before taxes, interest, and depreciation and amortization. "Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations" is defined as EBITDA from continuing operations adjusted for stock-based compensation and other special items determined by management, including, but not limited to business expansion costs, impairments of long-lived assets, remeasurement of environmental liabilities and restructuring as they are not indicative of business operations. EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations are intended as supplemental measure of our performance that is neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP. Management believes that the use of EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with those of comparable companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, you should be aware that when evaluating EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, we may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. In addition, our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because not all companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations in the same fashion.
 Because of these limitations, EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliations of Net loss from continuing operations to EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. The reported amounts in the table below are from our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss in our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report.

 Liquidity and Capital Resources
 On December 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8.6 million and digital assets of $7.0 million. To date, we have primarily relied on debt and equity financing to fund our operations, including meeting ongoing working capital needs. The Company has historically incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations.
 On November 27, 2024, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell the remaining 152-acres to Data Journey for $12.1 million in cash and an 8% profit participation in the property's planned data center. We anticipate the closing of the sale of the land in 2025 to generate proceeds that will further improve our liquidity.
 We continued to improve our liquidity position in 2024. On February 12, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Armistice SPA") with Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. ("Armistice"). Pursuant to the Armistice SPA, Armistice purchased (i) 450,300 shares of Class A common stock (the "SPA Shares"), and (ii) a pre-funded warrant (the "Pre-Funded Warrant") to purchase 810,205 shares of Class A common stock (the "Pre-Funded Warrant Shares"). The per share purchase price of the SPA Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares was $4.76, resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of $6.0 million, and after giving effect to the exercise price of $0.0001 per Pre-Funded Warrant Share, we received net proceeds of $6.0 million. In addition, we issued to Armistice a five-year warrant to purchase up to 1,260,505 shares of Class A common stock, exercisable commencing on August 14, 2024 at an exercise price of $5.25 per share.
 We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents, together with digital assets, cash generated from operations and the proceeds from the sale of the South Carolina Facility, will be sufficient to fund our operations and satisfy our current obligations through the next 12 months. However, our projected operating cash flows are not sufficient in the long term to meet our existing long-term debt obligations and will only be sufficient to fund operations and current operations if bitcoin mining economics remain at or above current levels.
 We are considering various items to address the long-term debt obligations, including the retirement or purchase of our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity or debt, in open-market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any will be upon such terms and at such prices as we may determine, and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material and to the extent equity is used, dilutive. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we entered into privately negotiated exchange agreements, pursuant to which we issued an aggregate of 692,433 shares of our Class A common stock, in exchange for $3.7 million aggregate principal amount of our 8.50% Senior Notes due October 2026.

 We may also raise additional funds through sales of equity under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we issued 1,595,855 shares under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement for net proceeds of $4.3 million.

 Our operating cash flows are highly dependent on bitcoin mining economics commonly measured by hashprice. Increases in the price of bitcoin benefit us by increasing the amount of revenue earned for each bitcoin earned. Increases in the difficulty to mine a bitcoin adversely affect us by decreasing the number of bitcoin earned. Increases in the costs of electricity, natural gas, and emissions credits adversely affect us by increasing operating costs. Depending on our assumptions regarding the bitcoin hashprice and energy price inputs, the estimates of the amounts of required liquidity vary significantly. There can be no assurances that these assumptions used to estimate liquidity requirements and future cash burn rates will be correct, and the ability to be predictive is uncertain due to the limited ability to predict future bitcoin and energy prices. The Company's forecast also anticipates proceeds from the South Carolina Facility classified as held for sale and any inability to close on a sale of that facility will further adversely impact the Company's liquidity projections. Additionally, the inability to procure and comply with the permits and licenses required to operate our facilities, including the Title V Air Permit for the New York Facility, which is subject to ongoing litigation (see Note 10, "Commitments and Contingencies"), may have an adverse impact on our ability to meet cash flow forecasts.

 While the Company believes it will be successful in its efforts to improve liquidity, which will allow it to meet its financial commitments for at least the next 12 months, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.

Environmental obligations are based on estimates subject to various assumptions including, but not limited to, closure and post-closure cost estimates, timing of expenditures, escalation factors, and requirements of granted permits. Additional adjustments to the environment liability may occur periodically due to potential changes in remediation requirements regarding coal combustion residuals which may lead to material changes in estimates and assumptions.

 Operating Activities
 Net cash used for operating activities from continuing operations was $12.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to cash used for operating activities from continuing operations of $12.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The variance in operating cash flow during the year ended 2024 as compared to 2023 was driven by a decrease in prepaid expenses, increase in contract liabilities and an advantageous change in net loss, which was partially offset by the transition to bitcoin self-mining retention strategy, which enables the Company to accumulate bitcoin from its owned miners, the purchase of additional RGGI credits during 2024 and payment of accrued expenses.
 Investing Activities
 Net cash used for investing activities from continuing operations was $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease is primarily related to $2.6 million of lower purchases of and deposits for property and equipment compared to the prior year due to the lower miner purchases and lower proceeds from the sale of assets of $3.9 million. This was partially offset by proceeds of $3.5 million from the sale of digital assets.

 Financing Activities
 Net cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations was $11.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to $13.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease is primarily related to a $18.7 million reduction in sales of Class A common stock under our ATM Agreement. This was partially offset by a $6.0 million increase in proceeds from the issuance of common stock and pre-funded warrant under the Armistice SPA, a $6.8 million elimination of principal payments on debt in 2023 due to its restructuring, and a $3.3 million increase in proceeds from the issuance of common stock under the Equity Purchase Agreement.
 Financing Arrangements
 See Note 5, "Debt," Note 6, "Stockholders' Deficit" and Note 17, "Subsequent Events" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for details regarding our financing arrangements.

 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 Information regarding new accounting pronouncements is included in Note 2, "Significant Accounting Policies", in the
 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
 Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 Our significant accounting policies are discussed in detail in Note 2, "Significant Accounting Policies", in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2024; however, we consider our critical accounting policies to be those related to the valuation of long-lived assets and remeasurement of environmental obligations.
 Valuation of Long-Lived Assets
 In accordance with ASC 360-10, we review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows, based on prevailing market conditions, from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset is written down to fair value.
 During 2024, we determined that a triggering event had occurred as of September 30, 2024 due to declines in hashprice, driven by lower bitcoin rewards for miners post-halving, increases in the difficulty factor due to increase in the overall hashrate as more efficient miners entered the market, and a lack of a corresponding increase in bitcoin price. For the purposes of performing the recoverability test we consider all of our long-lived assets to be a single asset group as we operate as an integrated power and crypto datacenter operations business and this grouping represents the lowest level of identifiable independent cash flows. We concluded that projected undiscounted cash flows were in excess of the carrying value of the asset group, and, therefore, the assets are considered to be recoverable and no determination of impairment was necessary.
 An impairment charge of $0.2 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was the remaining value of certain miners that were determined to be no longer recoverable.
 Remeasurement of environmental liabilities
 We recognize environmental liabilities in accordance with ASC 410-30, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations. As of December 31, 2024, we have recognized environmental liabilities for a coal-ash pond and landfill, which were inherited due to the legacy coal operations at our property in Torrey, New York. These costs are considered to be both probable and estimable. We have recorded a total environmental liability of $30.7 million and $30.2 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, for the remediation of these sites. We recognized a charge of $0.5 million and $2.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, for the remeasurement of environmental liabilities. The charges were as a result of updates in the cost estimates associated with the landfill post-closure liabilities as part of our continuing evaluation of the site.
 We have estimated the cost of remediation by developing a remediation plan in consultation with environmental engineers, periodically obtaining quotes for estimated construction costs and adjusting estimates for inflationary factors based on the expected timing of the remediation work. Estimates include anticipated post-closure costs including

 monitoring and maintenance of the site. Estimates are based on various assumptions that are sensitive to changes including, but not limited to, closure and post-closure cost estimates, timing of expenditures, escalation factors, and requirements of granted permits. Additional material adjustments to the environmental liability may occur in the future due to required changes to the scope and timing of the remediation, changes to regulations governing the closure and remediation of CCR sites and changes to cost estimates due to inflationary or other economic factors.

 Emerging Growth Company Status
 We qualify as an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:
 • have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
 • comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);
 • submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as "say-on-pay," "say-on-frequency" and pay ratio; and
 • disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO's compensation to median employee compensation.
 In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
 We will remain an "emerging growth company" for up to five years from our first sale of common stock pursuant to an effective Securities Act registration statement in 2021, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1.235 billion, (ii) the date that we become a "large accelerated filer" as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our Class A common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

 ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.
 The financial information required by this Item is set forth in and following the Index to Consolidated Financial Statements on page F- 1 and is filed as part of this Annual Report.

 ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
 None.

 ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report.
 Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2024. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that it files or submits to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. We have performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. Our management used the criteria set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) to perform its assessment. Based on this assessment, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
 Limitation on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
 In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and our internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and does not expect that our internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and our internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of internal controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Also, any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls in future periods is subject to the risk that those internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in business conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Annual Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION.
 On March 26, 2025, we received a letter from the Nasdaq listing qualifications department notifying us that for the prior
 30 consecutive business days, our Market Value of Publicly Held Shares ("MVPHS") had been below the listing
 requirement of $15 million. The Nasdaq rules provide us with an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days to regain
 compliance with the minimum MVPHS requirement. We can provide no assurance of our ability to take the appropriate
 actions within the 180-day cure period to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
 Greenidge Generation Holdings Inc.
 Opinion on the Financial Statements
 We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Greenidge Generation Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 Basis for Opinion
 These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
 Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 Greenidge Generation Holdings Inc. ("Greenidge") and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") own and operate a vertically integrated cryptocurrency datacenter and power generation company. The Company owns and operates a facility in Torrey, New York (the "New York Facility") and owned and operated a facility in Spartanburg, South Carolina (the "South Carolina Facility"). The Company generates revenue in U.S. dollars by providing hosting, power and technical support services to third-party owned bitcoin mining equipment and generates revenue in the form of bitcoin as rewards and transaction fees for supporting the global bitcoin network with application-specific integrated circuit computers ("ASICs" or "miners") owned by the Company, which may be operated at the Company's sites or at third-party hosting sites through short-term hosting agreements. The Company also owns and operates a 106 megawatt ("MW") power facility that is connected to the New York Independent System Operator ("NYISO") power grid. In addition to the electricity used "behind the meter" by the New York datacenter, the Company sells electricity to the NYISO at all times when its power plant is running and increases or decreases the amount of electricity sold based on prevailing prices in the wholesale electricity market and demand for electricity.
 On November 9, 2023, the Company closed the sale of the South Carolina Facility as part of a deleveraging transaction. See Note 4, "Property and Equipment, Net", for further details.

 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
 The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Any reference in these Notes to applicable guidance refers to U.S. GAAP as found in U.S. Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") and Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB").
 The consolidated financial statements reflect the Company's accounts and operations and those of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 Liquidity
 In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern, the Company's management evaluated whether there are conditions or events that pose risk associated with the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements have been issued. The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern. The Company has historically incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations. These losses were primarily a result of challenging bitcoin mining economics starting in 2022 when energy prices increased and the prices of bitcoin went through a period of significant decline. The economics of bitcoin mining have since been positively impacted through 2024 by a recovery in the price of bitcoin and a reduction in energy prices, and negatively offset by increased mining difficulty and by the halving which occurred on April 19, 2024 and reduced the rewards distributed to miners. The existence of these factors beginning in 2022 raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, the Company believes this substantial doubt is alleviated by management's plans which includes our existing cash and cash equivalents, together with digital assets, cash generated from operations and the proceeds from the planned sale of the South Carolina land held for sale, will be sufficient to fund its operations and satisfy its current obligations through the next twelve months.

 Management has taken certain actions since 2022 to improve the Company's liquidity including the sale of assets, the proceeds of which were used to extinguish $ 80.3 million of debt, and significant restructuring activities to materially reduce selling, general and administrative expenses. On November 27, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell the remaining South Carolina land for $ 12.1 million in cash and an 8 % profit participation interest in the property's planned data center. The closing of the sale is in process, and we expect it to close in 2025.
 However, the Company's projected operating cash flows are not sufficient in the long-term to meet the existing long-term debt obligations.
 The Company is considering various items to address the long-term debt obligations, including the retirement or purchase of our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity or debt, in open-market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any will be upon such terms

 and at such prices as we may determine, and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material and to the extent equity is used, dilutive. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, the Company entered into privately negotiated exchange agreements, pursuant to which it issued an aggregate of 692,433 shares of the Company's Class A common stock, in exchange for $ 3.7 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.50 % Senior Notes due October 2026. From January 1, 2025 through the date of this filing, the Company entered into privately negotiated exchange agreements, pursuant to which it issued an aggregate of 643,456 shares of the Company's Class A common stock, in exchange for $ 1.8 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.50 % Senior Notes due October 2026.
 The Company may also raise additional funds through sales of equity under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. For the twelve ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued 1,595,855 shares under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement for net proceeds of $ 4.3 million.

 The Company's operating cash flows are highly dependent on bitcoin mining economics commonly measured by hashprice. Increases in the price of bitcoin benefit the Company by increasing the amount of revenue earned for each bitcoin earned. Increases in the difficulty to mine a bitcoin adversely affect the Company by decreasing the number of bitcoin earned. Increases in the costs of electricity, natural gas, and emissions credits adversely affect the Company by increasing operating costs. Depending on the Company's assumptions regarding the bitcoin hashprice and energy price inputs, the estimates of the amounts of required liquidity vary significantly. There can be no assurances that these assumptions used to estimate liquidity requirements and future cash burn rates will be correct, and the ability to be predictive is uncertain due to the limited ability to predict future bitcoin and energy prices. The Company's forecast also anticipates proceeds from the South Carolina Facility classified as held for sale and any inability to close on a sale of that facility will further adversely impact the Company's liquidity projections. Additionally, the inability to procure and comply with the permits and licenses required to operate our facilities, including the Title V Air Permit for the New York Facility, which is subject to ongoing litigation (see NOTE 10), may have an adverse impact on our ability to meet cash flow forecasts.

 While the Company believes it will be successful in its efforts to improve liquidity, which will allow it to meet its financial commitments for at least the next twelve months, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.
 Use of estimates
 The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
 Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, estimates of the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, and environmental liabilities.
 Significant Accounting Policies
 Segment Reporting
 Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Greenidge operates as one operating and reporting segment. The Company's datacenter operations are located in the United States, and the Company views these operations as one operating segment as the CODM reviews financial information on a consolidated basis in making decisions regarding resource allocations and assessing performance.
 The Company generates revenue primarily by (1) earning bitcoin, with miners that are owned by the Company, as rewards and transaction fees for supporting the global bitcoin network and (2) providing hosting, power and technical support services to third-party owned bitcoin mining equipment. The Cryptocurrency Mining, Datacenter Hosting and Power Generation operations also sell surplus electricity generated by the Company's power plant, and not consumed in cryptocurrency mining and datacenter hosting operations, to the NYISO power grid at prices set on a daily basis through the NYISO wholesale market. In addition, the Company receives revenues from the sale of its capacity and ancillary services in the NYISO wholesale market.
 Discontinued Operations

 The Company deems it appropriate to classify a component as a discontinued operation if the related disposal group meets all the following criteria: (1) the disposal group is a component of the Company; (2) the component meets the held-for-sale criteria; and (3) the disposal of the component represents a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results.
 The contract for Support.com's largest customer was not renewed upon its expiration on December 31, 2022. As a result of this material change in the business, management and the Board of Directors made the determination to consider various alternatives for Support.com, including the disposition of assets. As of December 31, 2022, the Company classified the Support.com business as held for sale and discontinued operations in these consolidated financial statements as a result of its strategic shift to strictly focus on its cryptocurrency mining, datacenter hosting and power generation operations.
 Cash and Cash Equivalents
 All liquid instruments with an original maturity, at the date of purchase, of 90 days or less are classified as cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of money market funds, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, corporate notes and bonds, and U.S. government agency securities. The Company's interest income on cash and cash equivalents is included in Interest expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.
 Digital Assets
 Digital assets are comprised of bitcoin earned as noncash consideration in exchange for providing hash computations for a mining pool, which are accounted for in connection with the Company's revenue recognition policy previously disclosed. Digital assets are included in current assets in the consolidated balance sheets due to the Company's ability to sell it in a highly liquid marketplace and because the Company reasonably expects to liquidate its digital assets to support operations within the next 12 months.
 The Company adopted ASU 2023-08 during the second quarter of 2024 with an effective date of January 1, 2024. As a result of adopting ASU 2023-08, the Company measures digital assets at fair value as of each reporting period based on UTC closing prices at period-end on the active trading platform that the Company normally transacts and has determined is its principal market for bitcoin.
 Gains and losses resulting from remeasurements are included within (Gain) loss on digital assets in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Gains and losses resulting from the sale of bitcoin, measured as the difference between the cash proceeds and the carrying basis of bitcoin as determined on a first-in-first-out basis, are also included within (Gain) loss on digital assets in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
 Digital assets received by the Company as noncash consideration are included as an adjustment to reconcile net loss to cash used in operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. In August 2024, the Company announced its new bitcoin self-mining retention strategy, which enables the Company to accumulate bitcoin from its owned miners. Proceeds from the sale of bitcoin that occur nearly immediately after receipt are included within operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. To the extent the Company holds bitcoin for more than a few days, proceeds from the sale of bitcoin are included within investing activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows.
 Prior to the adoption of ASU 2023-08, the Company accounted for digital assets as intangible assets with an indefinite useful life, which are not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. The Company performed an analysis each period to identify whether events or changes in circumstances, principally decreases in the quoted prices on active exchanges, indicated that it was more likely than not that its digital assets were impaired. Digital assets were considered impaired if the carrying value was greater than the lowest intraday quoted price at any time during the period. For quoted prices, the Company used daily exchange data from its principal market. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses was not permitted.
 Accounts Receivable
 The Company provides credit in the normal course of business to its power customer, the NYISO, and hosting customer, NYDIG. The NYISO makes payments, depending on the type of revenue, within seven days of usage or seven days of month end. The NYDIG Hosting Agreement requires advance payment for estimated hosting services. The balance based on actual results is due upon receipt. There are currently no accounts receivable associated with cryptocurrency mining

 revenues. We have not experienced any historic credit losses with our power or hosting customers and therefore, we determined that no allowance for doubtful accounts is required for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
 Emissions Expense and Credits
 The Company participates in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative ("RGGI"), which requires, by law, that the Company remit credits to offset 50 % of the Company's annual emission expense in the following year, for each of the years in the three-year control period (January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026). In March 2025, the Company surrendered the emissions allowance required for the first year of the current control period. The Company recognizes expense on a per ton basis, where one ton is equal to one RGGI credit.
 The RGGI credits are recorded on a first in, first out ("FIFO") basis. The Company incurred emissions expense of $ 8.7 million and $ 6.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which was allocated between cost of revenue - cryptocurrency mining, cost of revenue - datacenter hosting and cost of revenue - power and capacity, based on the relative percentage of MWh consumed for each, in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.
 Property and Equipment, net
 Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the Company's depreciable assets, as noted in the table below. Construction in process is comprised of assets which have not been placed into service and is not depreciated until the related assets are complete and ready for their intended use, at which time the cost is transferred to the appropriate property and equipment class. Land and miner deposits are not depreciated. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. See Note 4, "Property and Equipment, Net" for additional information.

 Valuation of Long-Lived Assets
 The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows, based on prevailing market conditions, from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset is written down to fair value. The Company recognized a noncash impairment charge of $ 0.2 million and $ 4.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. See Note 4, "Property and Equipment, Net" for additional information.
 Investments in Equity Securities
 The Company owns common shares in a private company. The Company does not have control and does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of this entity. The investment does not have a readily determinable fair value and thus the investment is measured at cost less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments. Investments in equity securities are a component of Other long-term assets and gains (losses) on equity securities are recorded in Other income (expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The Company recognized a noncash impairment charge of $ 0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. There was no

 impairment charges recognized for the year ended December 31, 2023. See Note 6, "Stockholders' Deficit" for additional information.
 Derivative Financial Instruments
 The Company held an equity warrant asset in a private company that gave it the right to acquire common stock in the private company. The equity warrant asset contains net settlement terms, and, thus, the Company recorded it as a derivative. The equity warrant asset entitled the Company to purchase a specific number of shares of common stock at a specific price within a specific time period, in this case 1 year. The equity warrant asset contains an automatic exercise provision if the Company does not exercise prior to expiration, or provide notice of its intent not to exercise. Upon automatic exercise, the Company will receive a share count equal to the intrinsic value of the warrant divided by the share price. The equity warrant asset is recorded at fair value and is classified as a derivative asset, a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets. The asset was held for prospective investment gains and is not used to hedge any economic risks.
 Any changes in fair value from the grant date fair value of the equity warrant asset classified as a derivative is recognized as an increase or decrease to Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and as net gains or losses on derivative instruments, in Other income (expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The Company recognized a loss on the change in fair value of $ 0.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. There was no change in fair value of the equity warrant asset during the year ended December 31, 2023. See Note 6, "Stockholders' Deficit" for additional information.
 Leases
 The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception. The Company recognizes a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the lease commencement date and is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
 In calculating the ROU asset and related lease liability, the Company elected to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company excluded short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less as an accounting policy election and recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
 Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise fixed payments. Variable lease payment amounts, such as increases in lease payments based on changes in index rates or usage, are not included in the measurement of the ROU asset or lease liability. These are expensed as incurred and recorded as variable lease expense. See Note 13, "Supplemental Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Information" for additional information.
 Environmental Liability
 Environmental liabilities are recognized in accordance with ASC 410-30, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations when the costs are probable and estimable. As of December 31, 2024, we have recognized environmental liabilities for a coal ash pond and landfill which were inherited due to the legacy coal operations at the Company's property in Torrey, New York. The Company determines the estimate by developing key assumptions to determine the expected cost of remediation. Estimates are based on various assumptions that are sensitive to changes including, but not limited to, closure and post-closure cost estimates, timing of expenditures, escalation factors, and requirements of granted permits.
 Revenue Recognition
 The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
 • Step 1: Identify the contract, or contracts, with the customer;

 • Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
 • Step 3: Determine the transaction price;
 • Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
 • Step 5: Recognize revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
 In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, the Company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised good or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606's definition of a "distinct" good or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met: The customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (i.e., the good or service is capable of being distinct), and the entity's promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (i.e., the promise to transfer the good or service is distinct within the context of the contract).
 If a good or service is not distinct, the good or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct.
 The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. When determining the transaction price, an entity must consider the effects of all of the following:
 • Variable consideration;
 • Constraining estimates of variable consideration;
 • The existence of a significant financing component in the contract;
 • Noncash consideration; and
 • Consideration payable to a customer.
 Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. The transaction price allocated to each performance obligation is recognized when that performance obligation is satisfied, at a point in time or over time as appropriate.
 The Company recognizes amounts prepaid by customers in excess of recognizable revenue as contract liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
 Cryptocurrency Mining Revenue
 Greenidge has entered into digital asset mining pools by executing contracts with the mining pool operators to perform hash computations for a mining pool. The contracts are terminable at any time at no cost by either party and Greenidge's enforceable right to compensation begins only when, and lasts as long as, Greenidge performs hash computations for the mining pool operator. In exchange for performing hash computations, Greenidge is entitled to a fractional share of the cryptocurrency award the mining pool operator theoretically receives less the mining pool fees. The agreements entered into with the pool operators pay out based on a Full-Pay-Per-Share ("FPPS") payout formula, which is a conceptual formula that entitles Greenidge to consideration upon the provision of hash computations to the pool even if a block is not successfully placed by the pool operator. Revenue is measured as the value of the consideration received in the form of cryptocurrency from the pool operator, less the mining pool fees retained by the mining pool operator. Greenidge does not expect any material future changes in mining pool fee rates.
 In exchange for performing hash computations for the mining pool, the Company is entitled to a fractional share of the cryptocurrency award the mining pool operator theoretically receives (less pool operator fees to the mining pool

 operator which are netted as a reduction of the transaction price). Greenidge's fractional share is based on the proportion of hash computations the Company performed for the mining pool operator to the total hash computations contributed by all miners in solving the current algorithm during the 24-hour period. Daily earnings calculated under the FPPS payout formula are calculated from midnight-to-midnight UTC time and are credited to pool members' accounts at 1:00:00 A.M. UTC. The pool sends Greenidge's cryptocurrency balance in the account to a digital wallet designated by the Company between 9:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. UTC time each day, which Greenidge automatically sells for cash within minutes of receipt, unless Greenidge decides to retain its newly earned bitcoin in connection with its bitcoin retention strategy.
 The service of performing hash computations for the mining pool operators is an output of Greenidge's ordinary activities and is the only performance obligation in Greenidge's contracts with mining pool operators. The cryptocurrency that Greenidge receives as transaction consideration is noncash consideration, which Greenidge measures at fair value on the contract inception date at 0:00:00 UTC on the start date of the contract. The duration of each contract is 24 hours or less and provides the same rate of payment upon renewal. Since the pricing remains the same upon contract renewal, the contract does not provide the applicable mining pool operator with a material right that represents a separate performance obligation. The fair value is based on Greenidge's primary exchange of the related cryptocurrency which is considered to be Coinbase. The consideration Greenidge earns is variable since it is based on the amount of hash computations provided by both Greenidge and the bitcoin network as a whole. The Company does not constrain this variable consideration because it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of revenue recognized from the contract will not occur when the uncertainty is subsequently resolved and recognizes the non-cash consideration on the same day that control is transferred, which is the same day as contract inception.
 Power and Capacity Revenue
 Greenidge recognizes power revenue at a point in time when the electricity is delivered to the NYISO and its performance obligation is met. Greenidge recognizes revenue on capacity agreements over the life of the contract as its series of performance obligations are met as capacity to provide power is maintained.
 Sales tax, value-added tax, and other taxes Greenidge collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Incidental contract costs that are not material in the context of the delivery of goods and services are recognized as expense. There is no significant financing component in these transactions.
 Datacenter Hosting Revenue
 The Company generates revenue from contracts with customers from providing hosting services to a single third-party customer. Hosting revenue is recognized as services are performed on a variable basis. The Company recognizes variable hosting revenue each month as the uncertainty related to the consideration is resolved, hosting services are provided to its customer, and its customer utilizes the hosting service (the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the Company's performance). The Company's performance obligation related to these services is satisfied over time. The Company recognizes revenue for services that are performed on a consumption basis (the amount of electricity utilized by the customer) as well as through a fixed fee that is earned monthly and a profit-sharing component based on the net proceeds earned by the customer in the month from bitcoin mining activities. The Company bills its customer at the beginning of each month based on the anticipated consumption under the contract. Invoices are collected in the month of invoicing under the terms of the contract. The Company recognizes revenue based on actual consumption in the period.
 Cryptocurrency Mining Cost of Revenue
 Cost of revenue—cryptocurrency datacenter consists primarily of natural gas, emissions, hosting fees paid to third party hosting sites, payroll and benefits and other direct production costs associated with the megawatts generated for the digital mining operation.
 Datacenter Hosting Cost of Revenue
 Cost of revenue—datacenter hosting consists primarily of natural gas, emissions, payroll and benefits and other direct production costs associated with the megawatts generated for the datacenter hosting operation.
 Power and Capacity Cost of Revenue

 Cost of revenue—power and capacity consists primarily of natural gas, emissions, payroll and benefits and other direct production costs associated with the megawatts generated for the power produced by Greenidge and sold to the grid.
 Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
 Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of administrative payroll and benefits, business development costs, professional fees, and insurance.
 Stock-Based Compensation
 The Company accounts for share-based payment awards exchanged for services at the estimated grant date fair value of the award. Stock options issued under the Company's equity incentive plans are granted with an exercise price equal to no less than the market price of the Company's stock at the date of grant and expire up to ten years from the date of the grants. These options generally vest on the grant date or over a three-year period. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures of employee awards as they occur. Restricted stock units ("RSUs") issued under the Company's equity incentive plans are granted to employees and directors and vest over their requisite service period.
 The Company estimates the fair value of the stock option grants using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management's best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management's judgement. The fair value of RSUs is measured on the grant date based on the closing fair market value of the Company's common stock. Stock-based compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, net of actual forfeitures in the period.
 Expected Term – The expected term of options represents the period that the Company's stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding on the simplified method, which is the half-life from vesting to the end of its contractual term.
 Expected Volatility – The Company estimates expected volatility using a blended volatility including historical volatility of the Company's common stock and historical volatility of a peer group of publicly traded companies.
 Risk-Free Interest Rate– The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term.
 Expected Dividend – The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common shares and does not plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future, and, therefore, uses an expected dividend yield of zero in its valuation models.
 Income Taxes
 The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. These differences are measured at the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.
 A valuation allowance is required to be recognized if it is "more likely than not" that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The determination of the realizability of the deferred tax assets is highly subjective and dependent upon judgment concerning management's evaluation of both positive and negative evidence, the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies, and assessments of the current and future economic and business conditions.
 The Company recognizes and measures tax positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax return based on their technical merit and assesses the likelihood that the positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances and information available at the end of each period. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of the provision for income taxes.

 Income (Loss) Per Share
 Basic net income (loss) per common share attributable to common shareholders is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share attributable to common shareholders is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Company used the weighted average method in determining earnings per share.
 Fair Value Measurements
 The Company determines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values are classified based on a three-level hierarchy. The basis for fair value measurements for each level within the hierarchy is described below, with Level 1 having the highest priority and Level 3 having the lowest. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 • Level 1 – inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 • Level 2 – inputs are quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in non-active markets; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant valuation drivers are observable.
 • Level 3 – inputs to valuation models are unobservable and/or reflect the Company's market assumptions.
 The fair value hierarchy is based on maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Classification within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company transfers the fair value of an asset or liability between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which a significant change in the inputs used to determine the fair value has occurred.

 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

 A business is classified as held for sale when management having the authority to approve the action commits to a plan to sell the business, the sale is probable to occur during the next 12 months at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value and certain other criteria are met. A business classified as held for sale is recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell. When the carrying amount of the business exceeds its estimated fair value less cost to sell, a loss is recognized and updated each reporting period as appropriate.
 Support.com
 The contract for Support.com's largest customer was not renewed upon expiration on December 31, 2022.

In exchange for the sale to NYDIG of the upgraded 44 MW South Carolina mining facilities and the subdivided real estate of approximately 22 acres of land, the Company received total consideration of $ 28 million, as follows:
 • The Senior Secured Loan with NYDIG with remaining principal of $ 17.7 million was extinguished;
 • The B. Riley Commercial Secured Promissory Note with remaining principal of $ 4.1 million, which NYDIG purchased from B. Riley Commercial on July 20, 2023 at par was extinguished;
 • A cash payment of approximately $ 4.5 million, and
 • The Company also received bonus payments earned of approximately $ 1.6 million as a result of the completion of the expansion of the upgraded mining facility and the facility's uptime performance.
 The Company recognized a gain on the sale of the South Carolina Facility of $ 8.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2023.
 Following the completion of the South Carolina Facility sale, the Company continued to own approximately 152 acres of land in South Carolina, which was classified as Held for Sale as of December 31, 2024. On November 27, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell the remaining 152 -acres to Data Journey LLC ("Data Journey") for $ 12.1 million in cash and an 8 % profit participation in the property's planned data center. We expect the sale to close in 2025.
 Impairment
 The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows, based on prevailing market conditions, from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset is written down to fair value.
 During 2024, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $ 0.2 million of property and equipment, net. The impairment was related to miners no longer viable for operation.
 In 2023, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the remaining real estate assets in South Carolina, which included the land and the original building which was classified as construction in process as it was not used in cryptocurrency mining. The impairment assessment was performed using a market approach. An impairment charge of $ 4.0 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was the remaining value of the building which was determined to no longer be recoverable.

 Senior Unsecured Notes
 During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company sold $ 72.2 million of 8.50 % Senior Notes due October 2026 (the "Senior Notes") pursuant to the Company's registration statement on Form S-1. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable quarterly in arrears on January 31, April 30, July 31 and October 31 of each year to the holders of record at the close of business on the immediately preceding January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15, respectively. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and rank equal in right of payment with the Company's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. The Senior Notes trade on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "GREEL."
 The Company may redeem the Senior Notes for cash in whole or in part at any time (i) on or after October 31, 2023 and prior to October 31, 2024, at a price equal to 102 % of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption, (ii) on or after October 31, 2024 and prior to October 31, 2025, at a price equal to 101 % of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption, and (iii) on or after October 31, 2025 and prior to maturity, at a price equal to 100 % of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption. In addition, the Company may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole, but not in part, at any time at its option, at a redemption price equal to 100.5 % of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of redemption, upon the occurrence of certain change of control events.
 During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company entered into privately negotiated exchange agreements, pursuant to which it issued an aggregate of 692,433 shares of the Company's Class A common stock with a fair value of $ 1.62 million in exchange for $ 3.66 million aggregate principal amount of its Senior Notes, the net of which was recorded as a premium to be amortized over the remaining term of the Senior Notes. The Company concluded the exchanges met the definition of a troubled debt restructuring under ASC 470-60, Troubled Debt Restructurings by Debtors, as the Company was experiencing financial difficulties and the creditors granted a concession. The future undiscounted cash flows of the Senior Notes after the exchanges exceeded the carrying value of the Senior Notes prior to the exchanges. As such, the carrying value of the Senior Notes was reduced by the fair value of the Class A common stock granted and no gain was recognized as a result of the exchanges.

 commencing on August 14, 2024, to acquire up to 1,260,505 shares of the Company's Class A common stock from time to time at an exercise price of $ 5.25 per share (the "Warrant Shares"). The Warrant Shares remained unexercised as of December 31, 2024.
 The Pre-Funded Warrant and 5-Year Warrant were classified as a component of permanent stockholders' equity within additional paid-in capital and were recorded at the issuance date using a relative fair value allocation method. The Company valued the Pre-Funded Warrant at issuance, concluding that its sale price approximated their fair value, and allocated the aggregate net proceeds from the sale proportionately to the 5-Year Warrant and Pre-Funded Warrant, including approximately $ 2.0 million allocated to the Pre-Funded Warrant and recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital. The Company valued the 5-Year Warrant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital with an allocated amount of $ 2.8 million. By analogy to ASC 505-20-30-3, the Company would have recorded a charge to retained earnings, however, as the Company is in a deficit position it was recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital.
 Infinite Reality, Inc. Equity Exchange Agreement
 On December 11, 2023, Greenidge entered into an equity exchange agreement (the "Equity Exchange Agreement") with Infinite Reality, Inc. ("Infinite Reality"), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the Company issued to Infinite Reality a one-year warrant (the " 1-Year Warrant") to purchase 180,000 shares of our Class A common stock at an exercise price of $ 7.00 per share, which expired unexercised on December 11, 2024, and (ii) the Company issued 180,000 shares of our Class A common stock to Infinite Reality. The Company valued the shares issued under the Equity Exchange Agreement using the closing price on December 11, 2023, $ 4.83 per share, for an aggregate value of $ 0.9 million.
 In exchange for issuing the 1-Year Warrant and Class A common stock, we received (i) a 1-year warrant (the "Infinite Reality Warrant") to purchase 235,754 shares of Infinite Reality's common stock at an exercise price of $ 5.35 per share, recognized as a derivative asset in the amount of $ 0.5 million and included in prepaid expenses and other current assets as of December 31, 2023 and (ii) 280,374 shares of Infinite Reality's common stock, recognized as an investment in equity securities and included in Other long-term assets. The Infinite Reality Warrant was automatically exercised on a net settlement basis immediately prior to expiration on December 11, 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2024, Greenidge performed a qualitative assessment of impairment indicators for the shares of Infinite Reality's common stock. An impairment charge of $ 0.9 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was the entire carrying amount of the Infinite Reality common stock. We have assigned no value to the exercised shares and recognized a loss on the value of the warrants of $ 0.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2024.
 At Market Issuance Sales Agreement with B. Riley Securities
 On September 19, 2022, as amended on October 3, 2022, Greenidge entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the "ATM Agreement") with B. Riley Securities, Inc. ("B.

 Equity Purchase Agreement with B. Riley Principal Capital, LLC

 On September 15, 2021, as amended on April 7, 2022, Greenidge entered into an equity purchase agreement (the "Equity Purchase Agreement") with B. Riley Principal. Pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement, Greenidge has the right to sell to B.

 In connection with the Equity Purchase Agreement, Greenidge entered into a registration rights agreement with the Investor, pursuant to which Greenidge agreed to prepare and file a registration statement registering the resale by the Investor of those shares of Greenidge's Class A common stock to be issued under the Equity Purchase Agreement. The registration statement became effective on April 28, 2022 (the "April 2022 Effective Date"), relating to the resale of 572,095 shares of Greenidge's Class A common stock in connection with the Equity Purchase Agreement.
 From the April 2022 Effective Date to April 28, 2024, Greenidge issued 549,285 shares of Class A common stock to the Investor pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement for aggregate proceeds of $ 8.0 million, net of discounts, of which there were 45,269 shares issued for aggregate proceeds of $ 1.0 million, net of discounts, from January 1, 2024 through April 28, 2024.

 7. LOSS PER SHARE
 The Company calculates basic net loss per share by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The diluted net loss per share is computed by assuming the exercise, settlement, and vesting of all potential dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period using the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock (In thousands, except per share data):

 8. EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION
 Equity Incentive Plans
 In February 2021, Greenidge adopted an equity incentive plan and reserved 383,111 shares of Class A common stock for issuance under the plan (as amended and restated, the "2021 Equity Plan"), applicable to employees and non-employee directors. In April 2023, the stockholders approved an amendment and restatement of the 2021 Equity Plan to increase the maximum aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock that may be issued for all purposes under the Plan by 500,000 shares of Class A common stock from 383,111 to 883,111 shares of Class A common stock and to remove the counting of shares of Class A common stock granted in connection with awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights against the total number of shares available under the Plan as two shares of Class A common stock for every one share of Class A common stock granted in connection with such award. In November 2024, the stockholders approved an amendment and restatement of the 2021 Equity Plan to increase the maximum aggregate number of shares

 of Class A common stock that may be issued for all purposes under the 2021 Equity Plan by 700,000 shares of Class A common stock from 883,111 to 1,583,111 shares of Class A common stock. In October 2022, the Company registered 307,684 shares of Class A common stock, outside of the 2021 Equity Plan, that were reserved for issuance upon the vesting and exercise of non-qualified stock option inducement grants.
 RSAs and RSUs
 During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company awarded 392,028 restricted stock awards ("RSAs") and restricted stock units ("RSUs") under the 2021 Equity Plan. RSAs and RSUs are generally granted with an eligible vesting range from upon grant to over a two-year period.
 The Company's unvested RSA and RSU award activity for the year ended December 31, 2024 is summarized below:

 The value of RSA and RSU grants is measured based on their fair market value on the date of grant and amortized over their requisite service periods. The fair market value of the awards granted totaled $ 1.5 million and $ 0.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. There was $ 0.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock rights as of December 31, 2024, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average vesting period of less than 1 year.
 Common Stock Options
 During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company awarded 25,000 options that vest over a two-year period at a rate of 50 % per year and are subject to forfeiture restrictions which lapse over time. These were issued from the 2021 Equity Plan. Options granted to officers, employees and consultants expire ten years after the date of grant.

 The value of common stock option grants is measured based on their fair market value on the date of grant and amortized over their requisite service periods. During the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the fair market value of the awards granted totaled $ 0.1 million and $ 0.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, there was $ 0.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested options, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average vesting period of approximately 1.4 years.

 We determine the fair value of each grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The weighted average assumptions relating to the valuation of stock options granted for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

 On April 26, 2024, the Company entered into a Release Agreement with a former executive officer to allow for an acceleration of vesting of remaining unvested options and extended post termination exercise period. The stock option modification resulted in $ 0.2 million of incremental compensation cost during the year ended December 31, 2024, which was calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were used for the Black-Scholes valuation: risk-free rate of 4.67 %, expected life of 8.46 years, exercise price of $ 13.20, annualized volatility of 133.96 %, and a dividend rate of 0.0 %.
 Stock-based Compensation
 The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 2.2 million and $ 2.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

 The Company's effective tax rate of 0.35 % for the year ended December 31, 2024 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to a change in the valuation allowance and state taxes.
 The Company's effective tax rate of 0.0 % for the year ended December 31, 2023 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate 21% primarily due to a change in the valuation allowance and state taxes.

 As of December 31, 2024, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards ("NOL") of approximately $ 159.6 million for U.S. federal income purposes, of which $ 1.4 million begins to expire in 2025. The Company also had net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $ 94.3 million, which begin to expire in 2025. U.S. Federal NOLs incurred in or after 2018 have an indefinite carryforward period, which can be offset by 80% of future taxable income in any given year.
 Of the total federal NOLs, $ 58.4 million were acquired with Support.com, Inc. in 2021 and are subject to Section 382 limitation. Utilization of the Company's net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards can become subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by Section 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such an annual limitation could result in the expiration or elimination of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before utilization. The Company has performed an analysis of its changes in ownership under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Management currently believes that the Section 382 limitation will limit utilization of certain acquired net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards of Support.com and may defer the realization of the tax benefit associated with the acquired tax attributes from Support.com. The Company has ended all Support.com operations as of December 31, 2023; however, we continue to retain the existing domestic tax positions of Support.com.

 In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company evaluated its ability to realize the tax benefits associated with deferred tax assets by analyzing the relative impact of all the available positive and negative evidence regarding the Company's forecasted taxable income, the reversal of existing deferred tax liabilities, taxable income in prior carry-back years (if permitted) and the availability of tax planning strategies. To the extent the Company does not consider it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be recovered, valuation allowance is established. On the basis of this evaluation, as of December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets of $ 62.3 million, as it did not meet the more likely than not threshold required under ASC 740-10-30. The main form of negative evidence is the three-year cumulative losses.

 The Company files U.S., state and foreign income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The federal statute of limitation is three years and the state and foreign statutes of limitations are three to four years. Due to net operating loss carryforwards, the Company's income tax returns remain open and subject to examination for tax years 2005 and thereafter by federal and state tax authorities. The 2021 through 2023 tax years generally remain open and subject to audit by foreign tax authorities.

 The Company recognizes the tax benefit from uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the tax authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of the benefit from income taxes. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has not recorded any amounts for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company's management does not expect that total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next 12 months.

 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 Legal Matters
 From time to time, the Company may be involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in such matters may arise and harm the Company's business. Except as otherwise disclosed in this Note 10, "Commitments and Contingencies—Legal Matters", the Company is currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, or operating results.
 Title V Air Permit Renewal Litigation
 In late June 2022, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation ("NYSDEC") announced its denial of the Title V Air Permit renewal for the New York Facility. The Company filed a notice with NYSDEC in July 2022 requesting a hearing on NYSDEC's decision. In September 2023, the administrative law judge presiding over the hearing issued a ruling with respect to the status of the parties and certain issues to be adjudicated in the hearing. The Company submitted an interim appeal with NYSDEC thereafter challenging such ruling with a motion to stay the broader appeals process while the interim appeal was being resolved. On May 8, 2024, the Company's interim appeal to NYSDEC and request for an adjudicatory hearing were ultimately denied, and the June 2022 non-renewal of the Company's Title V Air Permit was affirmed by NYSDEC's Regional Director for Region 7, which rendered NYSDEC's decision final for purposes of seeking judicial review. On August 15, 2024, the Company filed a verified petition and complaint pursuant to Article 78 of the New York Civil Practice Law and Rules against NYSDEC in New York Supreme Court, Yates County (the "Court"), seeking declaratory and injunctive relief relating to NYSDEC's denial of the Company's renewal application for the New York Facility, including, among other things, to (i) annul NYSDEC's June 2022 denial of the Company's renewal application and the May 8, 2024 affirmation of such denial by NYSDEC's Regional Director for Region 7; (ii) issue certain declaratory judgments with respect to NYSDEC's interpretation of the New York Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act on which the denial of the Company's renewal application was predicated; and (iii) enjoin NYSDEC from taking any action to request that the New York Facility cease operations. On August 20, 2024, the Company submitted a motion to the Court by Order to Show Cause seeking a temporary restraining and preliminary injunction (the "TRO Request") permitting the New York Facility to continue operations during the pendency of the Article 78 proceeding. Subsequent to submission of the TRO Request, Greenidge and NYSDEC agreed to a briefing schedule with the respect to the TRO Request, with a hearing before the Court which occurred in late October 2024. In connection with the agreed-upon briefing schedule, NYSDEC agreed that Greenidge need not (i) cease operations of any air contamination sources located at the New York Facility, (ii) render such air contamination sources inoperable, or (iii) relinquish the Title V Air Permit until November 1, 2024 (the "November 1 Stay"). On October 29, 2024, a hearing was held before the Court and a stipulation on the record was entered into between the Company and NYSDEC, agreeing to extend the November 1 Stay through November 14, 2024 (the "November 14 Stay").
 On November 14, 2024, the Court issued a decision (the "November 14 Decision") on the Article 78 proceeding (i) annulling the denial of the Renewal Application and NYSDEC's order to shut down the New York Facility; (ii) finding that, in utilizing its authority to issue the denial of the Renewal Application, NYSDEC acted in a manner that was both affected by errors of law and arbitrary and capricious; and (iii) remanding the matter to NYSDEC for further proceedings consistent with the November 14 Decision. On December 13, 2024, the Company filed a notice of appeal with the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Fourth Judicial Department (the "Fourth Department"), appealing the November 14 Decision to the extent that the Court: (i) erred in holding that NYSDEC had the authority to deny the

 Renewal Application pursuant to Section 7(2) of the CLCPA and Part 621 of Title 6 of the New York Code of Rules & Regulations; (ii) failed to define the term "statement of justification" or declare the scope of analysis required by that Section 7(2) requirement, which definition and scope was a critical component of Greenidge's Article 78 challenge of NYSDEC's Final Decision, and was included in Greenidge's request for declaratory judgment; (iii) erred in holding that the analytical framework required by Section 7(2) of the CLCPA can be compartmentalized, such that NYSDEC need not even consider mitigation proposals with respect to its inconsistency analysis or as to the purported "justification" element of the CLCPA; and (iv) erred in finding that NYSDEC's determination, that approving the Renewal Application would be inconsistent with the CLCPA, was rational. Prior to that time, on December 9, 2024, the Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") assigned to the Greenidge administrative proceedings before NYSDEC's Office of Hearings and Mediation Services ("OHMS") notified the parties of its intent to hold a status conference given the Court's remittance of the matter back to the Department., which was held on December 16, 2024. On December 19, 2024, the Company submitted a motion by Order to Show Cause to the Court requesting a stay of NYSDEC's administrating proceedings with respect to the Renewal Application, which was denied on January 24, 2025. On January 27, 2025, the Company submitted a motion by Order to Show Cause to the Fourth Department requesting a stay of NYSDEC's administrating proceedings with respect to the Renewal Application, which motion was denied on February 24, 2025. On February 7, 2025, the Company submitted a renewed appeal of the Issues Ruling to NYSDEC's Commissioner, and further appealed the ALJ's determination that the Renewal Application must proceed to an adjudicatory hearing rather than revert back to NYSDEC Staff. As the Company believes NYSDEC Regional Director's May 8, 2024 decision failed to reach the merits of our initial appeal of the Issues Ruling on November 13, 2023, several issues raised by Greenidge in such appeal were never reached and left unaddressed in advance of the ALJ's decision to continue the administrating proceeding with respect to the Renewal Application. The decision on such renewed appeal has yet to be determined.
 The legal and administrative challenges with respect to the Renewal Application have, and will continue, to cause the Company to incur additional costs and result in the diversion of management attention, which could adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company expects that the judicial proceedings related to the challenge of NYSDEC's denial of the Company's Title V Air Permit renewal application may take a number of years to fully resolve, and there can be no assurance that the Company's efforts will be successful. The Company's inability to succeed in securing a renewal of the Company's Title V Air Permit for the New York Facility could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, and operating results, and its ability to meet its long-term debt obligations. See Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
 Environmental Liabilities
 The Company has a coal combustion residual ("CCR") liability associated with the closure of a coal ash pond located on the Company's property in Torrey, New York. In accordance with ASC 410-30, the Company has a liability of $ 17.3 million and $ 17.3 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. CCRs are subject to federal and state requirements. In October 2023, the Company completed the necessary steps to officially cease use of the coal ash pond. Following this occurring, the Company is required to complete the remediation of the coal ash pond CCR by November 2028 and will perform the work in stages over the next four years. Estimates are based on various assumptions including, but not limited to, closure and post-closure cost estimates, timing of expenditures, escalation factors, and requirements of granted permits. Additional adjustments to the environment liability may occur periodically due to potential changes in remediation requirements regarding coal combustion residuals which may lead to material changes in estimates and assumptions.
 The Company owns and operates a fully permitted landfill that also acts as a leachate treatment facility. In accordance with ASC 410-30, Environmental Obligations ("ASC 410-30"), the Company has recorded an environmental liability of $ 13.4 million and $ 12.9 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which includes a charge of $ 0.5 million and $ 2.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to a remeasurement increase. As required by NYSDEC, companies with landfills are required to fund a trust to cover closure costs and expenses after the landfill has stopped operating or, in lieu of a trust, may negotiate to maintain a letter of credit guaranteeing the payment of the liability. Estimates are based on various assumptions including, but not limited to, closure and post-closure cost estimates, timing of expenditures, escalation factors, and requirements of granted permits. Additional adjustments to the environment liability may occur periodically due to potential changes in estimates and assumptions. The liability has been determined based on estimated costs to remediate as well as post-closure costs which are assumed over an approximate 30-year period and assumes an annual inflation rate of 2.3 %.

 The Company's bitcoin holdings are not subject to contractual sale restrictions. As of December 31, 2024, the Company held no other digital assets.

 15. FAIR VALUE
 The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis, a three-level hierarchy based upon observable and unobservable inputs is used to arrive at fair value. The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
 • Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.
 • Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
 • Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date.
 As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the carrying amount of accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, income tax receivable, emissions and carbon offset credits, income tax receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued emissions expense, and other short-term liabilities approximated their fair value due to their relatively short maturities.
 The following tables present information about the Company's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value (in thousands):

 Warrant Asset
 The fair value of the warrant asset was estimated by utilizing a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The inputs into the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model included significant unobservable inputs. The following table provides quantitative information regarding the Level 3 fair value inputs (see Note 6, " Stockholders' Deficit" for additional information):

 Assets Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis
 Assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are remeasured when carrying value exceeds fair value. This includes the evaluation of long-lived assets. Where an indication of an impairment exists, the Company's estimates of fair value of long-lived assets require the use of significant unobservable inputs, representative of Level 3 fair value measurements, including numerous assumptions with respect to future circumstances that might impact the long-lived assets' operations in the future and are therefore uncertain.
 The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows, based on prevailing market conditions, from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset is written down to fair value.
 During the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized impairment charges of $ 0.2 million and $ 4.0 million, respectively, of property and equipment, net.

 16. SEGMENT REPORTING

 The Company has one reportable segment. The Datacenter Operations segment primarily derives revenue through datacenter hosting, crypto-currency self-mining, and power and capacity sales. The Company's chief operating decision maker is collectively the Chief Executive Officer and the President. They assess the performance of the segment and decide how to allocate resources based on segment gross profit and net income. The metrics are used to evaluate the investment in the expansion of new datacenters or other uses such as the continued deleveraging of the Company. Gross profit and net income is used to monitor budget versus actual results.
