  • Debt & Financing - Risk 1
    We expect to require additional financing, including project-level debt financing, to complete the buildout of our AI data center campus, and such financing may not be available on acceptable terms or at all.

    The full deployment of Phase 2 (40 MW) of our purpose-built AI data center campus is conditioned on our securing adequate financing, and we are pursuing project-level debt financing to fund our data center buildout while seeking to limit dilution to our shareholders. There can be no assurance that we will complete any such financing on the terms we currently contemplate, or at all. If we are unable to obtain sufficient financing on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay, curtail or abandon all or a portion of our development plans, including our ability to satisfy our obligations under our AI colocation agreement, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Share Price & Shareholder Rights6 | 9.4%
  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
    The Corporation is an "emerging growth company" and a "smaller reporting company" within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the Corporation takes advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies, which could make the Corporation's securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare its performance to other public companies.

    The Corporation is an "emerging growth company" and "smaller reporting company" within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act"). The Corporation has elected to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, including, but not limited to, an exemption from the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in periodic reports and proxy statements, and an exemption from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. The Corporation will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Corporation's initial public offering in the U.S., (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which the Corporation has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion; (iii) the date on which the Corporation is deemed to be a "large accelerated filer" as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of the SV Shares held by non-affiliates exceeded $700.0 million as of the last business day of the second fiscal quarter of such year; or (iv) the date on which the Corporation has issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. Even if we no longer qualify for the exemptions for an emerging growth company, we may still be, in certain circumstances, subject to scaled disclosure requirements as a smaller reporting company. Until such time as the Corporation ceases to be an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company, the Corporation's securityholders may not have access to certain information they may deem important for so long as the Corporation qualifies and elects to take advantage of the accommodations provided to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies. The Corporation cannot predict whether investors will find its securities less attractive because it elects to rely on these exemptions. If some investors find the Corporation's securities less attractive as a result of its reliance on these accommodations, the trading price of its SV Shares may be lower than they otherwise would be, there may be a less active trading market for the SV Shares and the trading price of the SV Shares may be more volatile. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Corporation has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that, when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Corporation, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make a comparison of the Corporation's financial statements with another public company that is either (a) not an emerging growth company nor (b) an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    The market price for SV Shares may be volatile, and there is no guarantee that an active or liquid market will be sustained for the SV Shares.

    The Corporation's SV Shares are listed on Cboe Canada ("Cboe") and Nasdaq. External factors outside of the Corporation's control, such as announcements of quarterly variations in operating results, revenues and costs, and sentiments toward stocks, may have a significant impact on the market price of the SV Shares. The market price for the SV Shares could be subject to extreme fluctuations. Factors such as government regulation, interest rates, share price movements of the Corporation's peer companies and competitors, as well as overall market movements and the market price for the cryptocurrencies that the Corporation mines, may have a significant impact on the market price of the SV Shares. Global stock markets, including Cboe and Nasdaq, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations from time to time. There can be no assurance that an active or liquid market will develop or be sustained for the SV Shares.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    Directors and officers may have a conflict of interest between their duties owed to the Corporation and their interest in other personal or business ventures.

    Certain of the Corporation's directors and officers are, and may continue to be, involved in the cryptocurrency and HPC/AI industries through their direct and indirect participation in corporations, partnerships or joint ventures that are potential competitors of the Corporation, as well through the ownership interest held by certain of the Corporation's directors and officers in certain subsidiaries of the Corporation. Situations may arise in connection with potential acquisitions or opportunities where the other interests of these directors and officers may conflict with the Corporation's interests. Directors and officers of the Corporation with conflicts of interest will be subject to and must follow the procedures set out in applicable corporate and securities legislation, regulations, rules and policies; however, there may be corporate opportunities that the Corporation is not able to pursue due to a conflict of interest of one or more of the Corporation's directors or officers.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4
    If the Corporation is characterized as a passive foreign investment company, U.S. shareholders may suffer adverse consequences.

    Generally, if for any taxable year 75% or more of the Corporation's gross income is passive income, or at least 50% of the average quarterly value of the Corporation's assets are held for the production of, or produce, passive income, the Corporation will be characterized as a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the Corporation were to be characterized as a PFIC, a U.S. Holder of the SV Shares could suffer adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, including the treatment of gain realized on the sale of the SV Shares as ordinary income rather than as capital gain, the loss of the preferential income tax rate applicable to dividends (if any) received on the SV Shares by a non-corporate U.S. Holder. Additionally, a U.S. Holder would be taxable upon receipt of certain "excess distributions" with respect to the SV Shares as if such income had been recognized ratably over the U.S. Holder's holding period for the SV Shares. The U.S. Holder's income for the current taxable year would include (as ordinary income) amounts allocated to the current taxable year and to any taxable year period prior to the first day of the first taxable year for which the Corporation were a PFIC. Tax would also be computed at the highest ordinary income tax rate in effect for each other taxable year period to which income is allocated, and an interest charge on the tax as so computed would also apply. The Corporation does not believe that it is currently classified as a PFIC. However, the Corporation's status as a PFIC in any taxable year requires a factual determination that depends on, among other things, the composition of its income, assets and activities in each year, and can only be made annually after the close of each taxable year. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the Corporation was not or will not be classified as a PFIC for the taxable year ended December 31, 2025, the current taxable year or for any past or future taxable year, and the Corporation has not obtained any legal opinion with respect to its PFIC status for its past, current or future taxable years. For all purposes in this Annual Report, a "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of Registrable Shares that is, (1) an individual who is a citizen or resident alien of the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (2) a corporation (or entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia, (3) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source or (4) a trust (x) with respect to which a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions or (y) that has elected under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a domestic trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5
    If a U.S. Holder is treated as owning at least 10% of the SV Shares, such holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.

    If a U.S. Holder is treated as owning, directly, indirectly or constructively, at least 10% of the value or voting power of the SV Shares, such U.S. Holder may be treated as a "United States shareholder" with respect to each "controlled foreign corporation" in the Corporation's group, if any. If United States shareholders collectively own more than 50% of the voting power or value of the Corporation or any of its non-U.S. subsidiaries, the Corporation and such non-U.S. subsidiaries each would be classified as a controlled foreign corporation. Additionally, because the Corporation's group includes one or more U.S. subsidiaries, the application of certain stock attribution rules under the U.S. tax laws in effect for taxable years of foreign corporations that begin before January 1, 2026 (the "Downward Attribution Rules") could cause certain of the Corporation's non-U.S. subsidiaries to be treated as controlled foreign corporations, regardless of whether the Corporation is treated as a controlled foreign corporation. The Downward Attribution Rules were amended as part of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "OBBBA") that was enacted on July 4, 2025. Effective for taxable years of foreign corporations beginning after December 31, 2025, the OBBBA amendments generally prohibit downward attribution from a foreign person, such as the Corporation, to its non-U.S. subsidiaries for purposes of determining United States shareholder and controlled foreign corporation status. Consequently, the Corporation's non-U.S. subsidiaries generally are not expected to be treated as controlled foreign corporations for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025 solely as a result of the Corporation's ownership of U.S. subsidiaries. A United States shareholder of a controlled foreign corporation may be required to annually report and include in its U.S. taxable income its pro rata share of "Subpart F income," "net CFC tested income" and investments in U.S. property by controlled foreign corporations, regardless of whether the Corporation makes any distributions. An individual who is a United States shareholder with respect to a controlled foreign corporation generally would not be allowed certain tax deductions or foreign tax credits that would be allowed to a United States shareholder that is a U.S. corporation. Failure to comply with these reporting obligations may subject a United States shareholder to significant monetary penalties and may prevent the running of the statute of limitations with respect to such shareholder's U.S. federal income tax return for the year for which reporting was due. The Corporation cannot provide any assurances that it will assist its investors in determining whether it or any of its non-U.S. subsidiaries are treated as a controlled foreign corporation or whether any investor is treated as a United States shareholder with respect to it or any of such controlled foreign corporations. Further, the Corporation cannot provide any assurances that it will furnish to any U.S. Holder information that may be necessary to comply with the reporting and tax paying obligations described in this risk factor. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of these rules to their investment in our SV Shares.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 6
    The Corporation's coins may be subject to loss, theft or restriction on access.

    There is a risk that some or all of the Corporation's coins could be lost or stolen. Access to the Corporation's coins could also be restricted by cybercrime (such as a denial-of-service attack) against a service at which the Corporation maintains a hosted online wallet. Any of these events may adversely affect the operations of the Corporation and, consequently, its investments and profitability. The loss or destruction of a digital private key required to access the Corporation's digital wallets may be irreversible. The Corporation's loss of access to its private keys or its experience of data loss relating to the Corporation's digital wallets could adversely affect its investments. Cryptocurrencies are controllable only by the possessor of both the unique public and private keys relating to the local or online digital wallet in which they are held, which wallet's public key or address is reflected in the network's public blockchain. The Corporation will publish the public key relating to digital wallets in use when it verifies the receipt of cryptocurrency transfers and disseminates such information into the network, but it will need to safeguard the private keys relating to such digital wallets. To the extent such private keys are lost, destroyed or otherwise compromised, the Corporation will be unable to access its coins, and such private keys will not be capable of being restored by network. Any loss of private keys relating to digital wallets used to store the Corporation's cryptocurrency could adversely affect its investments and profitability.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
