Mawson is now focused on expansion activities at its Pennsylvania facilities, which, when combined with existing and pipeline sites are capable of operating at up to approximately 12.0 Exahash² of Self-Mining and Hosting Co-location across 350 megawatts of energy capacity

ATLANTA & SYDNEY–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. (NASDAQ:MIGI) (�Mawson”), a digital infrastructure provider, today announced it has closed on the previously announced transaction with CleanSpark, Inc. (NASDAQ:CLSK) (“CleanSpark”), to sell its Sandersville, Georgia facility, and up to 6,468 ASIC’s for up to a maximum total purchase price of approximately $40 million.¹

The Sandersville, Georgia facility was Mawson’s first site built from the ground up and was operating at approximately 80 megawatts at close of the sale to CleanSpark. The exit from Georgia allows Mawson to focus on its expansion in Pennsylvania where the company has two sites in close proximity to each other. The Company expects the Georgia sale will have a positive impact on earnings with a preliminary, unaudited profit on sale of approximately $18 million expected in the fourth quarter 2022.

“The proceeds from the sale of our Georgia facility ensures Mawson is now fully funded for the Midland, Pennsylvania expansion while simultaneously allowing us to reduce our overall debt. Our Midland facility benefits from low cost energy, secured for 5 years under our power purchase agreement (PPA). Our large existing infrastructure capacity ensures we have significant opportunity to continue to build a sustainable business in this tough economic climate. We continue to receive solid inbound enquiry and demand for hosting co-location services and anticipate that as per industry standard new hosting customers will contribute to any additional capital required to establish or build out new or existing facilities,” said James Manning, CEO of Mawson.

After the sale of the Georgia facility, Mawson expects to have Self-Mining and Hosting Co-location of, 4.5 Exahash by Q1, 2023, and 8.0 Exahash by Q4, 2023.

Mawson’s existing revised infrastructure capacity comprises:

Site	MW Capacity	E/H Capacity	Status
Midland, PA	100 MW	3.3	Stage 1 – 50MW online Stage 2 – 50MW construction underway
Sharon, PA	120 MW	4.0	Stage 1 – 12MW – Q4 2022 Stage 2 – 80MW Mid 2023 Stage 3 – 28MW late 2023
Texas	120 MW	4.0	Site electrical infrastructure in place
New South Wales, Australia	20 MW	0.5	Stage 1 – 16MW online
Tasmania, Australia	10 MW3	0.25	Stage 1 – 10MW Q1 2023
TOTAL CAPACITY:	350 MW	12.05 EH

James Manning, CEO and Founder of Mawson, said, “We are extremely proud of the Sandersville facility we built from the ground up and the great team which operated the site for Mawson since inception. We believe the modular data center (MDC) approach to digital infrastructure gives us a competitive edge in the design and build of large-scale, low-cost digital asset infrastructure. The sale of the Sandersville facility to CleanSpark allows Mawson to continue to develop world class digital infrastructure, and we will focus on building out our existing and future pipeline infrastructure assets with partnerships in mind.”

Zach Bradford, CEO of CleanSpark, said, “Mawson has built a world-class facility, staffed by an incredible team, and we are looking forward to continuing their work in Sandersville, eventually building this site to its full potential of 230 MW as we work toward our 2023 year-end guidance of 22.4 EH/s, We are equally committed to deepening and developing our relationship with the people of Sandersville as we build sustainable bitcoin infrastructure.”

² Assumes all equipment deployed and 100% online, plus the construction of all contracted sites on time, actual results are likely to vary in a negative manner. Construction delays are common and it is rare for all equipment to be deployed and 100% online, however accurate historical downtime averages are difficult to calculate and also may not provide an accurate picture due to differences moving forward.
