**HIVE Digital Technologies Reaches AI Cloud Milestone in Paraguay, Powers Columbia University LLM Research from New York to Asunción**

*This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated November 25, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.*

San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - March 18, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure and AI compute, today announced that its BUZZ AI Cloud platform in Asunción, Paraguay is now operational with live GPU compute nodes serving workloads on the platform by an academic research team from Columbia University in New York.

The Asunción deployment is the first GPU cluster to go live under HIVE's phased strategy to layer AI and high-performance computing ("HPC") infrastructure onto its existing renewable energy footprint in Paraguay. The cluster is hosted within a Tier-III data center operated by Paraguay's largest telecommunications provider and is purpose-built to handle AI model training, inference, and computationally intensive research workloads. HIVE expects to use the results of the cluster to establish the proof of concept for AI compute between New York and Asuncion. From this proof-of-concept, the Company expects to build future Tier III data center capacity in Yguazú, with infrastructure upgrades required to provide high-availability, low-latency GPU AI cloud compute from Paraguay. Paraguay's hydroelectric generation capacity and the telecom partner's nationwide fiber backbone provide the energy and connectivity foundation to support that growth. As regional South American institutional and commercial demand for HPC and AI Cloud develops, the pace and scale of the Company's Tier III expansion in Paraguay will be guided by customer adoption and the Company's capital position.

**Columbia University Research Team Goes Live on BUZZ Cloud**

The Columbia University team is using BUZZ Cloud GPU infrastructure to conduct research focused on large language model ("LLM") pre-training, including end-to-end training of foundation models. The research team's use of BUZZ Cloud infrastructure is a non-commercial research engagement intended to generate performance data that will inform the Company's roadmap for scaling commercial HPC capacity in Paraguay. The team is developing optimization algorithms that improve model quality while reducing computational and memory costs, evaluating their methods using standard training metrics such as loss and perplexity, as well as downstream benchmarks.

Their work begins with small- to medium-scale models (0.2B to 2B parameters, including GPT-2-class and LLaMA-style architectures) and is scaling to larger models (8B+ parameters) using multi-GPU distributed training frameworks. The team's recent focus includes improving and understanding Muon and MuonClip, the latter of which has been used in training industry-level LLMs such as Kimi K2. In early experiments, Muon has shown roughly 1.3x greater efficiency<sup>1</sup> than standard baselines by exploiting the structure of model weights. The team's LLM reasoning research was recently accepted for publication by Transactions on Machine Learning Research ("TMLR"), a peer-reviewed journal hosted by the Journal of Machine Learning Research ("JMLR").

Having the Columbia University research team run active LLM training jobs from New York on GPU infrastructure in Asunción provides HIVE with real-world performance data across latency, throughput, and workload management. The Company intends to use these findings to shape its roadmap for scaling HPC capacity in Paraguay, with initial deployment targets through 2027.

**Paraguay: The Western Hemisphere's Next Potential AI Infrastructure Frontier**

Paraguay's President Santiago Peña earned his Master's degree in Public Administration from Columbia's School of International and Public Affairs ("SIPA") in 2003, creating a notable link between the institution whose researchers are now training LLMs on BUZZ Cloud and the nation whose clean energy powers it.

Management believes large-scale AI compute requires two resources Paraguay can deliver in abundance: reliable, low-cost electricity and fiber connectivity with the bandwidth and security to move data across long distances without degradation. HIVE's existing 300-megawatt ("MW") renewable power base, sourced from hydroelectric generation, combined with the telecom partner's enterprise-grade network infrastructure, creates a platform that can serve demanding workloads originating outside Paraguay's borders, including from North American institutional clients.

Paraguay's economy has posted strong growth in recent quarters, backed by stable governance and a policy environment that has welcomed foreign infrastructure investment. HIVE believes those conditions, paired with the country's distinctive energy profile and expanding digital connectivity, position the country to play a growing role in South America's AI and high-performance computing future.

**Strategic Outlook from HIVE Leadership**

Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE, stated, "HIVE has 300 MW of renewable hydroelectric power operational in Paraguay, with another 100 MW in development. Before scaling an AI factory, it's prudent to beta test. This deployment marks our first live GPU compute workload in Asuncion and provides the real-world performance data we need to guide our Tier-III expansion roadmap. We started in Paraguay with Bitcoin mining. Layering AI and HPC infrastructure onto that existing energy base is the next phase, and this cluster is the first step in validating that approach."

Aydin Kilic, President and CEO of HIVE, added, "We are taking a meaningful and impactful approach to developing a solution to being a leader of GPU AI compute and HPC in South America. Having a research team from Columbia University running LLM training workloads on HIVE's BUZZ Cloud infrastructure in Asunción is a powerful validation of what we are building. We will use this data to validate our proof of concept for GPU Cloud AI compute from New York to Asunción and to build our roadmap for large-scale HPC capacity in Paraguay by 2027."
