Bitfarms annonce l'ouverture d'un deuxième siège social à New York et entame sa conversion aux normes comptables américaines (US GAAP)
Toronto, Ontario and New York, New York (July 28, 2025) - Bitfarms Ltd. (Nasdaq/TSX: BITF) (the “Company”), a global energy and compute infrastructure company, today announced that the New York City office it acquired as part of the previous acquisition of Stronghold Digital Mining, Inc. will be identified as Bitfarms’ second Principal Executive Office (“PEO”) in its filings with the securities commissions in Canada and with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is also planning to prepare its financial statements under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) to better align with other companies within their industry. This transition from IFRS Accounting Standards to U.S. GAAP is expected to commence with the annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.
CEO Ben Gagnon stated, “I am excited to announce Bitfarms’ Principal Executive Office in New York City and our conversion to U.S. GAAP reporting. Building off the successful rebalancing of our energy portfolio to ~70% North American MWs in Q1, these initiatives further advance our U.S. pivot and align with our HPC/AI growth strategy. Maintaining a U.S.-based PEO and transitioning to U.S. GAAP is expected to simplify our reporting processes, reduce administrative and legal costs, broaden our U.S. investor base, and improve our eligibility for inclusion in certain stock indices, among other potential benefits. We believe this strategic transition will better position Bitfarms to execute our HPC/AI growth strategy, driving improved operational efficiencies and maximizing shareholder value.”
