("Gryphon"), which originally began operations as Ivy Crypto, Inc., was incorporated under the provisions and by the virtue of the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware on October 22, 2020, with its office located in Las Vegas, Nevada. Gryphon operates a digital asset (commonly referred to as cryptocurrency) mining operation using specialized computers equipped with application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chips (known as "miners") to solve complex cryptographic algorithms in support of the Bitcoin blockchain (in a process known as "solving a block") in exchange for cryptocurrency rewards (primarily Bitcoin). Gryphon became a publicly held entity in February 2024 upon the completion of a reverse merger transaction (the "Merger") with Akerna Corp., herein referred to as we, us, our, the Company or Akerna. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, including disclosures for certain activities up to and including the February 9, 2024 (the "Effective Date") the date of the Merger, are exclusively attributable to the operations of Ivy Crypto, Inc. The common stock, $0.0001 par value ("Common Stock") is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the "Nasdaq") under the symbol "GRYP" after February 9, 2024.

The legacy Akerna ("Legacy Akerna') was formed upon completion of the mergers between MTech Acquisition Corp. ("MTech") and MJ Freeway, LLC ("MJF") on June 17, 2019 as contemplated by the Merger Agreement dated October 10, 2018, as amended (the "Formation Mergers"). Akerna provided software as a service ("SaaS") solutions within the cannabis industry that enabled regulatory compliance and inventory management through several wholly-owned subsidiaries including MJF, Trellis Solutions, Inc. ("Trellis"), Ample Organics, Inc. ("Ample"), Last Call Analytics ("LCA"), solo sciences, inc. ("Solo"), Viridian Sciences, Inc. ("Viridian"), and The NAY People, Inc. d.b.a. 365 Cannabis ("365 Cannabis"). Our common stock, $0.0001 par value ("Common Stock") was traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the "Nasdaq") under the symbol "KERN" through February 9, 2024.

Prior to the merger date of February 9, 2024, Legacy Akerna committed to a number of significant actions that collectively represented a strategic shift in its business strategy and a complete exit from the Saas business serving the cannabis industry. The shift was effectuated in a two-part exit strategy whereby Legacy Akerna management (i) disposed of its component Saas business units in advance of (ii) the Merger with Gryphon, an entity unaffiliated with the Saas and cannabis industries.

Reverse Merger with Legacy Ivy Crypto, Inc.

On January 27, 2023, Akerna entered into an agreement and plan of merger, as amended on April 28, 2023 and June 14, 2023 (the "Merger Agreement") with Ivy Crypto, Inc. (formerly known as Gryphon Digital Mining, Inc. ("Ivy") and its wholly-owned subsidiary Gryphon Opco I LLC. On February 9, 2024, concurrent with the closing of the Sale Transaction, Legacy Akerna merged with and into Ivy, with Ivy surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Akerna. Following the closing of the Merger, the former Ivy and Akerna stockholders immediately before the Merger owned approximately 92.5 percent and 7.5 percent, respectively, of the outstanding capital stock on a fully diluted basis which effectively resulted in a change in control of the Company. Upon completion of the Merger, Akerna changed its name to Gryphon.

On February 9, 2024, the Company completed the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the "Merger"). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Akerna Merger Co. ("Merger Sub") merged with and into Ivy, with Ivy surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Akerna. On the Effective Date of the Merger, each share of Ivy's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Ivy Common Stock"), and Ivy's preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Ivy Preferred Stock," collectively referred to herein with the Ivy Common Stock as the "Ivy Shares"), outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date was converted into the right to receive approximately 1.7273744 shares of Gryphon common stock. Each warrant to purchase common stock of Ivy that was issued and outstanding at the Effective Date remained issued and outstanding and were assumed by the Company and is exercisable for shares of common stock pursuant to its existing terms and conditions as adjusted to reflect the ratio of exchange of Ivy Shares for shares of common stock. In connection with the Merger, on February 8, 2024, Akerna filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the "Reverse Stock Split Amendment"). Because the Reverse Stock Split Amendment did not reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock, the effect of the Reverse Stock Split was to increase the number of shares of common stock available for issuance relative to the number of shares issued and outstanding. The Reverse Stock Split did not modify any voting rights or other terms of the common stock. Eighty thousand and eight hundred and sixty-four (80,864) fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Immediately after giving effect to the Merger and the Reverse Stock Split, the Company had 38,038,533 shares of common stock outstanding. On February 9, 2024, the common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol "GRYP." All share and per-share data presented in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been adjusted for the exchange ratio.

As contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Akerna's operations were sold concurrently with the closure of the merger, so the Company's operations after the Merger are those of lvy.

Ivy is treated as the accounting acquirer in the Merger as its stockholders, board of directors, and management control the Company after the Merger, even though Akerna was the legal acquirer. The Merger was treated as a reverse recapitalization of lvy effected by a share exchange for a financial account and reporting purposes since all of Akerna's operations were disposed of as part of the consummation of the Merger. Therefore, Ivy recorded no goodwill or other intangible assets as a result of the merger. The Merger was treated as if Ivy issued 2,921,362 shares of common stock for the $(2,256,000) net book value of Akerna. As a result, the assets, liabilities, and historical operations reflected in these financial statements are those of lvy, as if lvy had always been the reporting company.

The Akerna net book value of approximately $(2,256,000) consisted of $500,000 of cash, prepaid expense of approximately $98,000 and liabilities of approximately $2,854,000.

On April 20, 2022, Ivy formed a limited liability company named Gryphon Opco I LLC ("GOI"). GOI aims to engage in any activity for which limited liability companies may be organized in the State of Delaware.

On December 20, 2024, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary Canada corporation named 2670786 Alberta LTD ("Alberta LTD"). Alberta LTD was formed to be the holding company for the prospective acquisition of Captus Energy.

On May 6, 2025, the Company formed wholly owned subsidiaries GDM Merger Sub Inc. and GDM Merger Sub II LLC to be used for the merger with ABTC.

ABTC Merger Agreement

On May 9, 2025, the Company, GDM Merger Sub I Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned direct subsidiary of Gryphon ("Merger Sub Inc."), GDM Merger Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned direct subsidiary of Gryphon ("Merger Sub LLC"), and American Bitcoin Corp., a Delaware corporation ("ABTC"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "ABTC Merger Agreement").

The ABTC Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement:

● Merger Sub Inc. will merge with and into ABTC, with ABTC surviving the merger (the "First Merger") as a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Gryphon (the corporation surviving the First Merger, the "First Merger Surviving Corporation"); and

● immediately after the First Merger, the First Merger Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Merger Sub LLC, with Merger Sub LLC surviving the merger (the "Second Merger" and, taken together with the First Merger, the "Mergers") as a wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Company (the company surviving the Second Merger, the "Surviving Company"). The Company following the Mergers is referred to herein as the "Combined Company."

The ABTC Merger Agreement provides that, prior to the effective time of the First Merger (the "First Effective Time"), The Company will file a new amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "New Charter") that, among other things, will (i) rename and reclassify the Company's existing common stock, into Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Gryphon Class A Common Stock"), establish a new series of common stock designated as Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Gryphon Class B Common Stock") and establish a new series of common stock designated as Class C common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. Each share of Gryphon Class A Common Stock will be entitled to one vote per share, and each share of Gryphon Class B Common Stock will be entitled to 10,000 votes per share.

At the First Effective Time:

● each share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001, of ABTC ("ABTC Class A Common Stock") issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Gryphon Class A Common Stock, equal to an exchange ratio calculated pursuant to the terms set forth in the ABTC Merger Agreement (the "Exchange Ratio"), as merger consideration in the First Merger (such shares in aggregate, the "Class A Merger Consideration"); and

● each share of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001, of ABTC ("ABTC Class B Common Stock" issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Gryphon Class B Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio, as merger consideration in the First Merger, (such shares in the aggregate, the "Class B Merger Consideration", and together with the Class A Merger Consideration, the "Merger Consideration").

At the effective time of the Second Merger (the "Second Effective Time"):

● each share of common stock of the First Merger Surviving Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time will automatically be canceled and retired and will cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

● each equity interest of Merger Sub LLC issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time will automatically be converted into and become one equity interest of the Surviving Company; and

● Gryphon will become the sole member of the Surviving Company.

Following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the ABTC Merger Agreement, including the Mergers (the "Closing"), (i) the aggregate number of shares of Gryphon Class A Common Stock and Gryphon Class B Common Stock issued to the former stockholders and other equity holders of ABTC as Merger Consideration is expected to represent approximately 98.0% of the outstanding equity interests of the Combined Company and (ii) Gryphon equity holders as of immediately prior to the First Merger are expected to own 2.0% of the outstanding equity interests of the Combined Company after their shares of Gryphon Common Stock are reclassified into shares of Gryphon Class A Common Stock. Following the Mergers, ABTC's business will be the business of the Combined Company.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2024 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in order to conform to the current period presentations.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are unaudited. The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The December 31, 2024 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025 or for any future period.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Going Concern

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), which contemplate the continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values.

Since the Company began revenue generation in September 2021, management has financed the Company's operations through equity and debt financing and the sale of the digital assets earned through mining operations. On June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $678,000 and digital assets totaling $917,000.

The Company may incur additional losses from operations and negative cash outflows from operations in the foreseeable future. In the event the Company continues to incur losses, it may need to raise debt or equity financing to finance its operations until operations are cashflow positive. However, there can be no assurance that such financing will be available in sufficient amounts and on acceptable terms, when and if needed, or at all. The precise amount and timing of the funding needs cannot be determined accurately at this time and will depend on several factors, including the market price for the underlying commodity mined by the Company and its ability to procure the required mining equipment and operate profitably. The Company's financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company's future results are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties.

Segment Reporting

The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") group is composed of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The Company operates as one operating segment and uses net income or loss as measures of profit or loss on a consolidated basis in making decisions regarding resource allocation and performance assessment. Additionally, the Company's CODM regularly reviews the Company's expenses on a consolidated basis. The financial metrics used by the CODM help make key operating decisions, such as determination of significant acquisitions and allocation of budget between cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses.

Since the Company operates as one reportable segment, all financial information required by "Segment Reporting" can be found in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The CODM does not review segment assets at a level other than that presented in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. There are no intra-entity sales or transfers, and no significant expense categories regularly provided to the CODM beyond those disclosed in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments ("ASC 825-10") which defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance.

ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of assets or liabilities.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates their fair value. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") in accounts that at times may be in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000 per bank. The Company minimizes this risk by placing its cash deposits with major financial institutions. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had $379,000 and $1,081,000 in excess of the federal insurance limit, respectively. The Company has never suffered a loss due to such excess balances.

Prepaid Expenses

Prepaid expenses consist of payments for the Company's co-location services, an insurance policy and other professional services, and the amounts are expected to be realized and consumed within twelve months after the reporting period.

Digital Assets

Digital assets or cryptocurrencies (including Bitcoin, Ethereum, DAI, and USDT) are included in current assets in the accompanying balance sheets. Cryptocurrencies purchased are recorded at cost and cryptocurrencies obtained by the Company through its sale of common stock are accounted for based on the value of the specific digital asset on the date received.

Digital assets are included in current assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets due to the Company's ability to sell bitcoin in a highly liquid marketplace and the sale of bitcoin to fund operating expenses to support operations. The Company measures digital assets at fair value with changes recognized in operating expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Mining Equipment

Mining equipment is stated at cost, including purchase price and all shipping and customs fees, and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three years for cryptocurrency mining equipment.

The Company reviews the carrying amounts of mining equipment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the assets may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows to be derived from continuing use of the asset or cash-generating unit are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Fair value less costs of disposal is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset or cash-generating unit in an arm's length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less the cost of disposal. When a binding sale agreement is not available, fair value less costs of disposal is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach with inputs and assumptions consistent with those of a market participant. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in net income.

At the point in time a miner becomes inoperable and not repairable, the Company records an expense amounting to the carrying value, which is the cost basis less accumulated depreciation at the time of write off.

Leases

The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, *Leases* ("ASC 842"). Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases and are recorded on the balance sheet as both a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company's incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right-of-use asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right-of-use asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term.

In calculating the right-of-use asset and the lease liability, the Company elects to combine lease and non-lease components as permitted under ASC 842. The Company excludes short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less from the new guidance as an accounting policy election and recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Derivatives

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and would then be revalued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. If there are stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company will use a probability-weighted average series Binomial lattice option pricing models to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates.

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities will be classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. Derivative liability will be measured initially and subsequently at fair value.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the new 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 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

● Step 5: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation

In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, a 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 distinct bundle of goods or services is identified.

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 the following:

● Variable consideration

● Constraining estimates of variable consideration

● The existence of a significant financing component in the contract

● Noncash consideration

● 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.

Cryptocurrency mining:

 

The Company entered into contracts with digital asset mining pool operators to provide the service of performing hash computations for the mining pool operator. The contracts are continuously renewable and are terminable without penalty at any time by either party. The Company's enforceable right to compensation only begins when the Company provides computing power to the mining pool operator. In exchange for providing computing power, the Company is entitled to a fractional share of Bitcoin. Hashrate is the measure of the computational power per second used when mining. Since the contract is continuously renewing, second by second, the mining contract is considered to have a duration of less than 24 hours for accounting purposes.

Providing computing power in Bitcoin transaction verification services is an output of the Company's ordinary activities. The provision of computing power is the only performance obligation in the Company's contracts with third party pool operators. The transaction consideration the Company receives, if any, is noncash consideration, which is all variable. There is no significant financing component in these transactions.

The Company earns Bitcoin during a 24-hour cycle between 00:00:00 UTC and 23:59:59 UTC ("24-hour Period") unless terminated in accordance with the terms set forth by the terms of service. The Company performs hash computations for one mining pool operator, Foundry USA. Foundry USA operates its pool on the Full Pay Per Share (FPPS) payout method. FPPS is a variant of the Pay Per Share (PPS) method, where miners receive a fixed payout for each valid share submitted, regardless of whether the pool finds a block.

The fair value of the Bitcoin award received is determined using the intraday average quoted price of the Bitcoin over the 24-Hour Period. The Company's Bitcoin earned are actively traded on the major trading platforms. The Company considers Coinbase to be its primary market. The consideration the Company will receive, comprised of block rewards, transaction fees less mining pool operator fees are aggregated, over the 24-Hour Period, in a sub-balance account held by the mining pool operator, which is finalized one hour later at 1:00 AM UTC. The sub-balance account is then withdrawn to the Company's whitelisted wallet address, once a day, between the hours of 9am to 5pm UTC time (the "Settlement"). The rate of payment occurs once per day, as long as the minimum payout threshold of 0.01 bitcoin has accumulated in the sub- account balance, in accordance with the mining pool operator's terms of service. At the time of Settlement, the company values the amount of Bitcoin earned. Given that the contract duration is considered less than 24 hours, the Company uses the average Bitcoin price over the 24-hour period, as quoted by Coinbase, to record the revenue. By utilizing the average daily price of bitcoin over the time earned, the Company eliminates any differences that may arise due to the volatility in trading price between bitcoin and fiat currency during the period where the Company establishes and completes the contract.

Pursuant to ASC 606-10-55-42, the Company assessed if the customer's option to renew represented a material right that represents a separate performance obligation and noted the renewal is not a material right. The definition of a material right is a promise in a contract to provide goods or services to a customer at a price that is significantly lower than the stand-alone selling price of the good or service. The mining pool operator does not provide any discounts and as such there is no economic benefit to the customer and as such a separate performance obligation does not exist under 606-10-55-42. In addition, there are no options for renewal that are separately identifiable from other promises in the contract, such as an ability to extend the contract at a reduced price.

The performance obligation of the Bitcoin miner under the mining contracts with Foundry Pool USA involves the service of performing hash computations to facilitate the verification of digital asset transactions. The Company's miners contribute computing power (i.e. hashrate) that perform hash calculations to the mining pool operator, engaging in the process of validating and securing transactions through the generation of Bitcoin hashes. The mining pool then utilizes a specific mining algorithm (e.g. SHA-256) to submit shares (proof of work) to the mining pool's server as they contribute to solving the Bitcoin puzzles required to mine a block. The Company reviews and analyzes its individual pool performance using a dashboard provided by Foundry Pool USA that includes real-time statistics on hashrate, shares submitted and earnings. The service of performing hash computations in digital asset transaction verification services is an output of the Company's ordinary activities. The provision of providing these services is the only performance obligation in the Company's contracts with mining pool operators.

Regardless of the pool's success, the Company will receive consistent rewards based on the number of valid shares it contributes. The transaction consideration the Company receives is non-cash consideration, in the form of bitcoin. The Company measures the bitcoin at fair value on the date earned using the average price (calculated by averaging the daily open price and the daily close price) quoted by its Principal Market at the date the Company completed the service of performing hash computations for the mining pool operator. There are no deferred revenues or other liability obligations recorded by the Company since there are no payments in advance of the performance. At the end of each 24-hour period (00:00:00 UTC and 23:59:59 UTC), there are no remaining performance obligations. By utilizing the average daily price of bitcoin on the date earned, the Company eliminates any differences that may arise due to the volatility in trading price between bitcoin and fiat currency during the period where the Company establishes and completes the contract. The consideration is all variable. There is no significant financing component in these transactions.

If authoritative guidance is enacted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), the Company may be required to change its policies, which could affect the Company's financial position and results from operations.

Cost of Revenues

The Company's cost of revenue consists primarily of direct costs of earning bitcoin related to mining operations, including electric power costs, other utilities, labor, insurance whether incurred directly from self-mining operations or reimbursed, including any revenue sharing arrangements under co-location agreements, but excluding depreciation and amortization, which are separately stated in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

ASC 606-10-32-25 through 32-27 in the FASB ASC provides guidance on the consideration of whether fees paid to a mining pool operator should be considered payments to a customer and treated as a reduction of the transaction price or revenue. The Company's management reviewed the standards and completed the following assessment.

Identifying the Customer: ASC 606-10-32-25 states that an entity should determine whether the counterparty to a contract is a customer. If the counterparty is a customer, the entity should apply the revenue recognition guidance to that contract. Under ASC 606-10-32-25, the Company identified the mining pool operator as the customer as the Company entered into a contractual agreement with the pool operator whereas the Company is to provide services in the form of contributing hashing power to the pool.

Mining Pool Operator as a Customer: As the Company has determined the mining pool operator to be a customer, any fees paid to the mining pool operator would be part of the transaction price of the contract. Any fees paid by the Company as a miner to the pool operator would be revenue earned by the pool operator, and the pool operator is treated as the customer.

Transaction Price: ASC 606-10-32-26 provides guidance on determining the transaction price. The Company considered the effects of variable consideration, constraints on variable consideration, the existence of a significant financing component in the contract, and non-cash consideration. The Company receives variable consideration given the variable nature of the amount of mining power (hashrate) contributed on a daily basis (24-hour period per recurring contract term). The Company completes an analytical procedure as part of its monthly closing process to determine the reasonableness of consideration received. There are no significant financing components of the transaction or delays in the timing of payments from the customer to the Company, whereas the Company would need to adjust the transaction price for the time value of money. As the Company receives non-cash consideration, in the form of bitcoin, ASC 606-10-32-26 specifies that the Company should measure non-cash consideration at fair value. The fair value of the non-cash consideration would be included in the determination of the transaction price. The Company does not receive the gross amounts of bitcoin earned prior to the transaction fees deduction by the pool operator. As such, the consideration received is net or inclusive of the transaction fees incurred and charged by the customer (pool operator).

Variable Consideration: If the fees paid to the mining pool operator are variable, an entity should estimate the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled. This involves considering the likelihood and magnitude of a significant revenue reversal. ASC 606-10-32-26 emphasizes the need to assess whether there are constraints on variable consideration. In the instance where there is uncertainty about the amount of consideration, it is reasonable for the Company to consider a likelihood of a significant reversal of revenue. The Company reviews daily bitcoin rewards received and reviews various factors, such as mining difficulty, the price of bitcoin and the Company's contribution to the pool operator. The Company estimates the amount of variable consideration the Company should receive and prepares a monthly workpaper documenting the difference in actual bitcoin rewards received vs. estimated bitcoin earned. The Company assessed, given the pool operators payout methodology and the revenue reasonableness test completed by management, there does not exist a likelihood of a significant reversal of revenue.

Reduction of Transaction Price: ASC 606-10-32-27 states that an entity should reduce the transaction price for variable consideration only to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur when the uncertainty is subsequently resolved. The Company assessed various factors, identifying the variable consideration, estimating the variable consideration, considered constraints (although none existed such as performance metrics or targets), probability, documentation, regular review and monitoring of performance with open communication with pool operators combined with dashboard usage. Due to the Company utilizing Foundry Pool's FPPS methodology and the previous mentioned factors, there was zero likelihood of a significant reversal of revenue as the Company receives payouts as a pool participant on a daily basis calculated from midnight-to-midnight UTC time, regardless of if the Pool Operator receives any block rewards.

In summary, fees paid to the mining pool operator are considered payments to a customer and treated as a reduction of the transaction price/revenue. The Company has carefully assessed the variable nature of these fees, considered the likelihood and magnitude of any potential adjustments, and documented that management has applied the revenue recognition guidance accordingly.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 *"Compensation* - *Stock Compensation"* using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting of transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments, or the issuance of those equity instruments may settle that.

We use the fair value method for equity instruments granted to non-employees and use the Black-Scholes model for measuring the fair value of options. The stock-based fair value compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods.

Common stock awards

The Company has granted common stock awards to non-employees in exchange for services provided. The Company measures the fair value of these awards using the fair value of the services provided or the fair value of the awards granted, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value measurement date of these awards is generally the date the performance of services is complete. The fair value of the awards is recognized on a straight-line basis as services are rendered. The share-based payments related to common stock awards for the settlement of services provided by non-employees are recorded in accordance with ASC 718 on the statement of operations in the same manner and charged to the same account as if such settlements had been made in cash.

Warrants

In connection with certain financing, consulting, and collaboration arrangements, the Company has issued warrants to purchase shares of its common stock. The outstanding warrants are standalone instruments that are not puttable or mandatorily redeemable by the holder and are classified as equity awards. The Company measures the fair value of the awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as of the measurement date. Warrants issued in conjunction with the issuance of common stock are initially recorded at fair value as a reduction in additional paid-in capital of the common stock issued. All other warrants are recorded at fair value as expense over the requisite service period or at the date of issuance if there is not a service period.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, in which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years **in** which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is required to the extent any deferred tax assets may not be realizable.

ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, ("ASC 740"), also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest, and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Based on the Company's evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company's financial statements. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained at the audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in material changes to its financial position.

Earnings Per Share

The Company uses ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share" for calculating the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. The Company computes basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options and warrants and stock awards. For periods with a net loss, basic and diluted loss per share is the same, in that any potential common stock equivalents would have the effect of being anti-dilutive in the computation of net loss per share.

Securities that could potentially dilute loss per share in the future were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents, consisting of unvested RSUs and warrants, amounted to 10,445,063 shares and 588,626 shares as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company's management reviewed all recently issued accounting standard updates ("ASU's") not yet adopted by the Company and does not believe the future adoptions of any such ASU's may be expected to cause a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition or the results of its operations, except for the following.

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. The amendments in this Update modify the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification. Certain of the amendments represent clarifications to, or technical corrections of the current requirements. Each amendment in the ASU will only become effective if the SEC removes the related disclosure or presentation requirement from its existing regulations by June 30, 2027. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of the provisions of the ASU will have on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The amendments in this ASU are not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations or financial position.

On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 requires entities to disclose specific rate reconciliations, amount of income taxes separated by federal and individual jurisdiction, and the amount of income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (benefit) disaggregated between federal, state, and foreign. The new standard is effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the standard.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)". The amendments require the disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil and gas producing activities. It also requires the disclosure of a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively as well as the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity's definition of selling expenses. The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of the provisions of the ASU will have on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of the provisions of the ASU will have on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

On October 25, 2024 ("Exchange Date"), the Company, its direct and indirect subsidiaries, as applicable and the Lender entered into a Debt Repayment and Exchange Agreement (the "DRE Agreement"), Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement (the "New Loan Agreement"), the Pre-funded Warrants (as defined below) and the $1.50 Warrants (as defined below) (collectively, the "Agreements") to extinguish and terminate the Amended BTC Note (the "Exchange").

Pursuant to the Agreements, the following consideration was exchanged with the Lender for the settlement of the Amended BTC Note:

● Approximately $9,117,000 of the Amended BTC Note principal balance was converted into shares of the Company's common stock (the "Shares Exchanged"), at an ascribed value of $1.10 per share resulting in the issuance of 8,287,984 shares of common stock to Lender, at a fair market value of $0.612 per share (the quoted market price of the Company's common stock on the Restructuring Date), or an aggregate value of approximately $5,072,000.

● Warrants to purchase 3,530,198 shares of common stock, which warrants are exercisable immediately, have a ten-year term and an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the "Prefunded Warrants"), at a fair market value of $0.612 per share (the quoted market price of the Company's common stock on the Restructuring Date), or an aggregate value of approximately $2,160,000.

● Warrants to purchase 2,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of$1.50 per share (the $1.50 warrants) which will expire in five-years from the date of the transaction for a total fair value of approximately $888,000 based on the Black Scholes fair value option-pricing model with key input variables provided by management, as of the date of issuance: volatility of ll5.0%, the fair value of common stock $0.612 estimated life of 5.0 years, risk-free rate of 4.07% to 4.72% and dividend rate of nil .

● A $5,000,000 note payable (the "Note Payable") pursuant to the New Loan Agreement.

● A director specified by Lender was added to the board of directors.

The terms of the Note Payable include the following:

● The outstanding principal and interest are denominated in dollars (as opposed to the original Bitcoin Loan that was denominated in bitcoin).

● One-time payment of in the amount of $5,000,000 on October 25, 2027

● Annual interest rate of 4.25% payable monthly.

● The Lender has been given a first priority lien on all the Company and its subsidiaries' assets.

● The Lender may convert half of the outstanding principal at a price of $1.10 per share of common stock and the remaining half at a price of $1.50 per share of common stock (for purposes of classifying the Restructured Loan, it was concluded that the conversion option did not meet the requirements to be bifurcated and classified as a derivative, nor was there a large premium paid that would be classified as an addition to paid-in capital so the conversion option is included in the value of the host instrument).

● The Note Payable cannot be converted or exercised if the Lender and its affiliates would beneficially own more than 19.99% of the number of shares of common stock as of the date of the agreement after giving effect to such conversion or exercise without the approval of the Company's stockholders, for which the Company is required to seek such approval at its next annual meeting of stockholders.

On September 30, 2024, the grant date, the Company's board of directors approved the issuance of the RSUs, pursuant to the CEO Agreement. The Company relied on guidance set by FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-07 (issued and updated on October 2021) related to Compensation - Stock Compensation ("Topic 718") to determine the impact on the Company. The grant date fair value for the 1,114,454 Time-based RSUs was estimated to be approximately $735,000 based on the Company's closing price of $0.66 as of the grant date. The Company will recognize expense on a straight-line basis over the service period starting October 1, 2024. The remaining 557,228 Market-based RSUs were considered to have a market-based vesting as the milestones are based on the Company's remediation of certain stock exchange listing qualifications, which are based on the market price and market capitalization of the Company's common stock. As further required by Topic 718, a market-based award's fair value is required to be expensed over the derived service period whether the milestone is met or not. The Company hired a third-party valuation firm to calculate the fair value of the Market-based Awards. The fair value of approximately $312,000 was determined by the use of a Monte-Carlo simulation model (i) over the period from September 30, 2024 through August 31, 2025 (the estimated date to achieve the remediation of the Nasdaq deficiencies over the period set forth in the CEO Agreement), (ii) a risk-free rate of 4.0%, (iii) volatility of 152.0%, (iv) a starting price of $0.68, (v) a price hurdle $1.00 and (vi) a time hurdle of 10 days, for a derived fair value of $0.56 per share and a derived service period of approximately 0.33 years. The $312,000 value of Market-based awards was expensed during the fourth quarter of 2024.

The CEO Agreement also provides Mr. Gutterman with the opportunity to earn an incentive bonus (the "Incentive Bonus"), with will become payable, if ever, in tranches following the Company's attainment of certain stock price and market capitalization goals. The specific goals are as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Company Stock Price Goal** | **Company<br> Market<br> Capitalization<br> Goal** | **Amount <br> of lncentive<br> Bonus Payable for <br> Achievement of<br> Tranche Goals** |
| **Tranche 1** | $2.50 based on 30-day VWAP | $150 Million | 100% of Base Salary |
| **Tranche 2** | $2.50 based on 30-day VWAP | $250 Million | 200% of Base Salary |
| **Tranche 3** | $5.00 based on 30-day VWAP | $500 Million | 300% of Base Salary |
| **Tranche 4** | $10.00 based on 30-day VWAP | $1 Billion | 500% of Base Salary |

---

No Incentive Bonus tranche will become payable unless both the stock price goal and the market capitalization goal ("Goals') for the applicable tranche are satisfied, and the market capitalization goal is attained simultaneously with the stock price goal. Additionally, the Incentive Bonus may be earned in a change in control if the consideration paid per share of Company common stock exceeds an Incentive Bonus tranche stock price goal and the total value received in the transaction exceeds an Incentive Bonus tranche market capitalization goal. Under no circumstances may the performance goals for an Incentive Bonus tranche be achieved more than one time. The Incentive Bonus, to the extent any tranche becomes payable, will be paid within thirty days of the attainment of the applicable goals, subject to Mr. Gutterman remaining in continuous employment with the Company through each payment date. The Company will continue to evaluate the probability of the CEO's achievement of the Goals. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had not accrued for the Incentive Bonus.

All bonuses payable under the CEO Agreement, except the stock bonus, may be paid in cash, Bitcoin, Company equity, or a mix of any of the foregoing.

Under the CEO Agreement, Mr. Gutterman will be entitled to receive the following severance payments and benefits upon a termination of his employment by the Company without "cause", by Mr. Gutterman for "good reason" (each, as defined in the CEO Agreement and collectively, a "Qualifying Termination"), that does not occur in connection with a change in control:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Accrued Obligations (as
defined in the CEO Agreement),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Mr. Gutterman's annual
base salary, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the product of (x) 12 and (y)
Mr. Gutterman's monthly cost for health and welfare benefits pursuant to his elections under the Company's health and welfare
benefit plans, as in effect on the termination date (collectively, the "Non-CIC Severance")

The Non-CIC Severance will be paid in a lump sum as soon as practicable following the effective date of a release but no later than 74 days following Mr. Gutterman's termination. If Mr. Gutterman incurs a Qualifying Termination within thirty (30) days prior to or twelve (12) months following a change in control, then in addition to the Non-CIC Severance, Mr. Gutterman will be entitled to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) An amount equal to 0.5 times
Mr. Gutterman's target bonus and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) acceleration and vesting on
a prorated basis (performance goals will be assumed to have been achieved at target) of each outstanding equity award held by Mr. Gutterman
as of the termination date (but excluding the Incentive Bonus) (collectively, the "CIC Severance").

To the extent payable in cash, the CIC Severance will be paid in a lump sum as soon as practicable following the effective date of a release, but no later than 74 days after Mr. Gutterman 's termination date. The severance payments and benefits described above are subject to Mr. Gutterman 's execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims in favor of the Company and continued compliance with his restrictive covenant obligations.

The CEO Agreement includes certain restrictive covenants, which include non-solicitation and non-competition covenants during the term of the CEO Agreement and for the twelve (12) months following. Further, the CEO Agreement includes a "best pay" provision under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, pursuant to which any "parachute payments" that become payable to Mr. Gutterman will either be paid in full or reduced so that such payments are not subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, whichever results in the better after-tax treatment to Mr. Gutterman.

 

 

*Blockfusion Co-location Mining Services Agreement*

 

On December 1, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with Blockfusion USA, Inc. ("Blockfusion") to provide hosting services for 3,780 of the Company's bitcoin miners not to exceed 12MW of allocated power ("Blockfusion MSA") for a period of twelve months (November 30, 2025), automatically renewing for one month extensions until terminated by either party, ("Term"). The Company is required to pay to Blockfusion a monthly facility fee of $13,000 per MW, for an aggregate of $156,000 ("Facility Fee") for standard levels of maintenance of the Company's Mining Equipment, including fault diagnosis and software upgrades, and racking and unracking of faulty machines. The Company's monthly power usage will charge to the Company without a Blockfusion markup charge. At the signing of the Blockfusion MSA, the Company was required to pay (i) an initial monthly Facility Fee of $156,000 to be applied to the December 2024 Facility fee, (ii) a deposit in the aggregate of $600,000, as follows $200,000 on December 6, 2024, $200,000 on January 1, 2025 and $200,000 on February 1, 2025 ("Cash Deposit") and (iii) the Company is required, prior to January 27. 2025, and thereafter at all times during the Term, maintain an irrevocable letter of credit, or prior to January 31, 2025 maintain a cash deposit and thereafter at all times during the Term, in the amount of $1,200,000 ("LOC Deposit"). As of the release date of these unaudited condensed consolidated Financial Statements, the Cash Deposit has been paid and is not outstanding while the LOC Deposit remains outstanding.

The Company determined that the agreement with Blockfusion does not meet the definition of a lease in accordance with ASC 842, Leases.

On April 15, 2025, due to high industry hash rates and high energy costs, Gryphon Digital Mining, Inc. (the "Company") and Blockfusion USA, Inc. ("Blockfusion") agreed to suspend mining operations and curtail service, respectively.

*Mawson Agreement*

 

On January 3, 2025, Gryphon entered into a Master Co-Location Agreement (the "Mawson Agreement") with Mawson Hosting LLC ("Mawson") with a right to host up to 5,880 miners in Mawson's facility in Midland, Pennsylvania. Pursuant to the Mawson Agreement, the Company is entitled to 20 MW of power at a cost of approximately $23.50 per MW/hour paid monthly with a minimum fee of approximately $165,521 per month, as well as certain other fees set forth in the agreement. The Mawson Agreement has an initial term of one year and may be terminated on sixty days' notice. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company delivered 6,719 bitcoin miners to Mawson.

The Company determined that the agreement with Mawson does not meet the definition of a lease in accordance with ASC 842, Leases.

*Sphere 3D MSA*

 

On August 19, 2021, Gryphon entered into a Master Services Agreement (the "Sphere MSA") with Sphere 3D. The Sphere 3D MSA has a term of three years, beginning on August 19, 2021, and terminating on August 18, 2024, with one-year automatic renewal terms thereafter. Under the Sphere MSA, Gryphon is Sphere 3D's exclusive provider of management services for all blockchain and cryptocurrency-related operations, including but not limited to services relating to all mining equipment owned, purchased, leased, operated, or otherwise controlled by Sphere 3D and/or its subsidiaries and/or its affiliates at any location, with Gryphon receiving a percentage of the net operating profit of all of Sphere 3D's blockchain and cryptocurrency-related operations.

On December 29, 2021, the Company and Sphere 3D entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Sphere 3D MSA, to provide greater certainty as to the term of the Sphere 3D MSA. Sphere 3D and Gryphon agreed to extend the initial term of the Sphere 3D MSA from three to four years, or to five years in the event Sphere 3D does not receive delivery of a specified minimum number of Bitcoin mining machines during 2022.

On April 7, 2023, Sphere 3D filed a suit against Gryphon in the Southern District of New York. The lawsuit concerns the Sphere MSA between the parties where the Company agreed to act as Sphere 3D's "exclusive provider of any and all management services for all blockchain and cryptocurrency-related operations." Sphere 3D alleges that the Company has fallen short in its obligations under the Sphere MSA, and is suing for alleged breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and breach of fiduciary duty (such matter, the "Sphere 3D Litigation").

On October 6, 2023, Sphere 3D delivered a termination notice to the Company with respect to the Sphere MSA, largely on the basis of the allegations made by Sphere 3D in the Sphere 3D Litigation (the "Sphere 3D MSA Termination"). On October 11, 2023, the Company filed an answer to Sphere 3D's second amended complaint, in which, among other things, the Company alleged that Sphere 3D's attempted termination of the Sphere MSA was wrongful and ineffective, because it violated the terms of the Sphere MSA, and thus that Sphere 3D continues to owe the Company all amounts to which it would otherwise be entitled under the Sphere MSA through that contract's term ending in August 2026.

On March 7, 2025, The Company and Sphere 3D entered into a settlement and release agreement on mutually acceptable terms. The Settlement Agreement fully resolved all pending litigation between the Company and Sphere, and each party fully released the other party from any known or unknown and unsuspected claims. As of March 7, 2025, the Company had a liability of due to Sphere 3D of approximately $449,000, which was written off and recorded as a gain on settlement of accounts payable in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Contingencies

The Company is subject at times to various claims, lawsuits, and governmental proceedings relating to the Company's business and transactions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company cannot predict the final outcome of such proceedings. Where appropriate, the Company vigorously defends such claims, lawsuits, and proceedings. Some of these claims, lawsuits and proceedings seek damages, including, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, in amounts that could, if awarded, be significant. Certain of the claims, lawsuits, and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business are covered by the Company's insurance program. The Company maintains the property and various types of liability insurance in an effort to protect the Company from such claims. In terms of any matters where there is no insurance coverage available to the Company, or where coverage is available and the Company maintains a retention or deductible associated with such insurance, the Company may establish an accrual for such loss, retention, or deductible based on currently available information. In accordance with accounting guidance, if it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred as of the date of the financial statements, and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable, then an accrual for the cost to resolve or settle these claims is recorded by the Company in the accompanying balance sheets. If it is reasonably possible that an asset may be impaired as of the date of the financial statement, then the Company discloses the range of possible loss. Expenses related to the defense of such claims are recorded by the Company as incurred and included in the accompanying statements of operations. Management, with the assistance of outside counsel, may, from time to time adjust such accruals according to new developments in the matter, court rulings, or changes in the strategy affecting the Company's defense of such matters. On the basis of current information, the Company does not believe there is a reasonable possibility that other than with regard to the Class Action described below, any material loss, if any, will result from any claims, lawsuits, and proceedings to which the Company is subject to either individually, or in the aggregate.

On September 5, 2024 and September 13, 2024, the Company received deficiency notices from Nasdaq, who have certain stock exchange listing qualification requirements, such as the Company to maintain a stock price of at least $1.00 and maintain MVLS of at least $35,000,000 (the "Deficiencies").

As of June 30, 2025, there was approximately $756,000 unrecognized compensation expense related to the service-based RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average vesting period of approximately 1.2 years.

On December 17, 2024 ("Grant Date"), the Company's Senior Vice President of Energy ("VP Energy") was granted a time time-based equity grant of 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to an equity incentive plan. The Equity Grant shall vest over a four (4)-year period beginning on the Grant Date, subject to VP Energy's continued employment with the Company through the relevant vesting date, in accordance with the following schedule. The equity award was valued as of the grant date at $0.477 per share for a total of $239,000. The grant date fair value was estimated to be fair value of the Company's common stock on the Grant Date. The equity compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to approximately $61,000.

As of the resolution date October 31, 2024, with an effective date of October 1, 2024, there were seven board members entitled to the annual equity award of $160,000 and one board member entitled to the committee chair retainer of $40,000 (as further disclose in NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES). As of October 1, 2024, the grant date, a total of 1,914,580 shares of the Company's common stock, based on a VWAP of $0.61 per share. The fair value of the shares as of the grant date was $1,200,000.

The equity compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to approximately $0 for the Market- based RSUs and approximately $274,000 for the Time-based RSUs. On June 6, 2025, the Company regained compliance with the NASDAQ listing rules, which was the requirement for the vesting of the Market-based RSUs.

On June 19, 2023, the Company's CFO was granted a time-based equity grant of 675,058 shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to an equity incentive plan. The Equity Grant shall vest over a three (3)-year period beginning on the Effective Date, subject to CFO's continued employment with the Company through the relevant vesting date, in accordance with the following schedule. The equity award was valued as of the grant date at $2.42 per share for a total of $946,000. The Company was under a binding agreement to merge with Akerna as of the grant date. Therefore, the grant date fair value was estimated to be the per-share value based on the exchange ratio defined in the Akerna Merger, as the Company believes that the Akerna trading is the most readily determined value in accordance with ASC 718-10-55-10 to 12. Akerna is publicly traded (Nasdaq: GRYP). The equity compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to approximately $17,000.

The Company was under a binding agreement to merge with Akerna as of the grant date. Therefore, the grant date fair value was estimated to be the per-share value based on the exchange ratio defined in the Akerna Merger, as the Company believes that the Akerna trading is the most readily determined value in accordance with ASC 718-10-55-10 to 12. Akerna is publicly traded (Nasdaq: GRYP). The equity compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to approximately $24,000.

Restricted common stock awards

On January 8, 2025, in connection with the Captus Agreement, as a material inducement to their agreeing to become employees of the Company, the Company granted a restricted stock award to each of Harry Andersen, Paul Connolly, Mark Taylor and Steve Giacomin (collectively, the "Restricted Stock Awards"). The Restricted Stock Awards were intended to constitute "employment inducement awards" under the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules. The aggregate restricted stock shares issued was 4,083,300. Each of the Restricted Stock Awards vests in three equal installments on the first three anniversaries of the grant date subject to the grantee's continued engagement with the Company through each applicable vesting date, provided however, that the Restricted Stock Awards will accelerate and vest immediately upon the grantee's death, disability, termination by the Company without "cause" (as defined in each Restricted Stock Award agreement), or the consummation of a change in control of the Company. The equity awards were valued as of the grant date at $0.452 per share for a total of $1,846,000. The grant date fair value was estimated to be fair value of the Company's common stock on the Grant Date. Upon the execution of the Captus Assignment Agreement, the Restricted Stock Awards were cancelled and returned to the Company. For the Restricted Stock Awards, the Company recorded compensation expense of approximately $436,000. Since the vesting periods did not occur, as of the Cancelation Date, the compensation expense of $436,000 was reversed and classified as stock-based compensation expense.

Anchorage warrant

In October 2024, the Company issued, to Anchorage, a warrant to purchase 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.50 per share ("Anchorage Warrant"). Concerning the ABTC Merger Agreement, the Company agreed to amend the Anchorage Warrant by lowering the strike price from $1.50 to $0.55. The Anchorage Warrant was accounted for as an equity instrument when issued with the Anchorage Note Payable debt restructuring; therefore, the modification will be accounted for pursuant to ASC 718-20-35-3 for awards classified as equity. The Anchorage Warrant's fair value immediately before the modification was calculated to be approximately $696,000 and the modified Anchorage Warrant's fair value was calculated to be approximately $824,000, for a $128,000 increase in the fair value. Since the Anchorage Warrant was originally accounted for as an equity instrument the $128,000 increase in fair value was expensed and classified as ABTC merger expense. In June 2025, Anchorage elected to cashless exercise both the Penny Warrants and the Anchorage Warrants. The Company issued a total of 4,384,470 shares of the Company's common stock for $0 cash.

**<u>Business Overview</u>**

Founded in October 2020, Gryphon has traditionally been a bitcoin mining company based in Las Vegas, Nevada. Gryphon launched its mining operations in September 2021 upon the receipt of the first of 12 batches of 600 Bitmain S19j Pro Antminers. Gryphon's current revenue model is to mine and hold bitcoin, and then sell only the bitcoin that is necessary to pay its operating expenses and to reinvest in operational expansion. The bitcoin that is sold to pay operating expenses and to reinvest in operational expansion is typically sold within 24-hours of receipt.

Gryphon operates approximately 5,880 bitcoin ASIC mining computers, referred to as "miners," from Bitmain Technologies Limited ("Bitmain") that Gryphon has installed at a third-party hosted mining data center located in Pennsylvania. Revenue generated by the mining of bitcoin is measured on a dollar per megawatt-hour ("MWh") basis and is variable based on the price of Bitcoin, the measure of difficulty, transaction volume and global hash rates. See "Recent Developments – Blockfusion Agreement" below.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, Gryphon mined approximately 31 and 226 bitcoins, respectively. While Gryphon does not have any plans to acquire digital assets other than bitcoin, it may do so in the future.

***Breakeven Analysis***

Below is a breakeven analysis of Gryphon's mining operations for six months ended June 30,

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2025** | **2024** |
| Mining Revenues | $2935000 | $13005000 |
| Bitcoin mined | 31.13 | 225.64 |
| Value of one mined bitcoin | $94282 | $57637 |
| Cost of Revenues (excluding depreciation) | $3662000 | $8640000 |
| Cost to mine one bitcoin | $117636 | $38291 |
| Total Bitcoin mined | 31 | 84 |
| Breakeven of Total Bitcoin mined | $117636 | $38291 |

---

The breakeven analysis is computed by taking the cost of revenues for the given period and dividing that sum by the number of Bitcoin mined during the same period. For instance, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 the $3,662,000 cost of revenues is divided by the 31 Bitcoin mined, resulting in an average of $117,636 per coin. The breakeven analysis is an operational metric that does not take capital expenditures or financing mechanics into consideration. The calculation only considers direct operational costs, such as electricity and hosting. The mining equipment was originally financed primarily through equity capital raises and cash flows resulting from the sale of bitcoin generating by mining operations. As of June 30, 2025, there were no financing agreements outstanding related to financing of mining equipment.

The breakeven analysis is a non-GAAP measure, similar to the way the gold industry reports gold-equivalent ounces to provide uniform measure of various revenue streams from different commodities (such as gold, copper, nickel, etc.). Much like the gold industry, the purpose of this calculation is to offer the reader a bitcoin-equivalent datapoint for Gryphon's primary revenue stream. This enables readers to easily compare Gryphon's operations with other bitcoin mining companies. By dividing the total cost of revenues by the number of bitcoin mined, one arrives at the breakeven point. Therefore, if Gryphon sells a bitcoin at the same price, it would have achieved a breakeven.

The breakeven cost of mining bitcoin is influenced primarily by two factors. First, the cost of electricity sourced from Gryphon's hosting providers, which encompasses a combination of pass-through market electricity prices and profit-sharing arrangements. Second, it is affected by the global hashrate of the Bitcoin network. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the cost of electricity has fluctuated due to increased demand year over year from $0.0736 per kilowatt hour during the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $0.0926 per kilowatt hour during the six months ended June 30, 2025, reaching a high of $0.1223 per kilowatt hour during January 2025. In addition, the global hashrate of the Bitcoin network has shown a consistent upward trend, with sequential increases of 4.4%, 16.9%, 9.2% and 9.1% over the last four quarters ending June 30, 2025. This increase in the global hashrate has led to fewer bitcoins being mined for the same amount of energy consumption. The combined effect of these changes in the two key cost drivers has resulted in an increase in the overall breakeven level as of June 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2024.

***ABTC Merger Agreement***

See "Explanatory Note" and "Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies "ABTC Merger" to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025 included in this Report.

***Blockfusion Agreement***

 ****

On December 1, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with Blockfusion USA, Inc. ("Blockfusion") to provide hosting services for 3,780 of the Company's bitcoin miners not to exceed 12MW of allocated power ("Blockfusion MSA") for a period of twelve months (November 30, 2025), automatically renewing for one month extensions until terminated by either party, ("Term"). The Company was required to pay to Blockfusion a monthly facility fee of $13,000 per MW, for an aggregate of $156,000 ("Facility Fee") for standard levels of maintenance of the Company's Mining Equipment, including fault diagnosis and software upgrades, and racking and unracking of faulty machines. The Company's monthly power usage would charge to the Company without a Blockfusion markup charge. At the signing of the Blockfusion MSA, the Company was required to pay (i) an initial monthly Facility Fee of $156,000 to be applied to the December 2024 Facility fee, (ii) a deposit in the aggregate of $600,000, as follows: $200,000 on December 6, 2024, $200,000 on January 1, 2025 and $200,000 on February 1, 2025 ("Cash Deposit") and (iii) the Company was required, prior to January 27. 2025, and thereafter at all times during the Term, maintain an irrevocable letter of credit, or prior to January 31, 2025 maintain a cash deposit and thereafter at all times during the Term, in the amount of $1,200,000 ("LOC Deposit"). As of the release date of these consolidated Financial Statements, the Cash Deposit has been paid and is not outstanding while the LOC Deposit remains outstanding.

On April 15, 2025, due to high industry hash rates and high energy costs, Gryphon Digital Mining, Inc. (the "Company") and Blockfusion USA, Inc. ("Blockfusion") agreed to suspend mining operations and curtail service, respectively.

**Captus Energy**

 

On January 8, 2025, the Company and Alberta Ltd., entered into a Share and Unit Purchase Agreement (the "Captus Agreement") with BTG Energy Corp., a Canadian corporation ("BTG Energy"), BTG Power Corp., a Canadian corporation ("BTG Power") and West Lake Energy Corp., a Canadian corporation ("West Lake," and together with BTG Energy and BTG Power, the "Vendors"). Pursuant to the Captus Agreement, the Company was to acquire from the Vendors all of the issued and outstanding shares or units, as applicable, of (i) Captus Generation Ltd. ("Captus GP") and BowArk Energy Ltd., each a Canadian corporation, and (ii) Captus General Limited Partnership, a Canadian limited partnership (collectively "Captus Energy," and the transaction contemplated by the Captus Agreement, the "Captus Acquisition").

In connection with the Captus Agreement, on January 8, 2025, as a material inducement to their agreeing to become employees of the Company, the Company granted a restricted stock award to each of Harry Andersen, Paul Connolly, Mark Taylor and Steve Giacomin (collectively, the "Restricted Stock Awards"). The Restricted Stock Awards were intended to constitute "employment inducement awards" under the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules. The aggregate restricted stock shares issued was 4,083,003.

On May 29, 2025, the Company entered into an Assignment and Amending Agreement ("Assignment Agreement") with Captus Energy and 2703444 Alberta LTD ("Assignee"). Captus Energy consented to the Company's assignment of its rights and interests in the Captus agreement to the Assignee, which agreed to the assumption of the rights and interest in the Captus agreement for $1.00. As of the Assignment date, the Company wrote off the Captus Acquisition cost of approximately $1,292,000 classified as the merger and acquisition expenses in accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. In addition, the Restricted Stock Awards were cancelled and returned to the Company.

*Mining revenues*

Mining revenues decreased to $2,935,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $13,005,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in mining revenues of $10,070,000 was due to a combination of factors. The average value of bitcoin mined for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $94,000 compared to $58,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $36,000, or 63.0%. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately 10,700 miners in operation compared to approximately 8,800 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. However, these increases in revenue recognized per bitcoin earned and operational miners were offset by the increase in global hashrate as well as the 50% reduction in block rewards due to the halving event in April 2024.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the average daily global hashrate was 875.7 exahash and 602.1 exahash, respectively, an increase of 45%.

*Cost of revenues*

Cost of revenues decreased to $3,662,000 for the six months ended June 30 2025, from $8,640,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease of $4,978,000 was primarily due to the decrease in the number of Bitcoin mined offset by (i) an increase in Bitcoin network hashrate and (ii) higher energy costs.

---

Professional fees decreased to $1,562,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, from $1,939,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease of $377,000 relates to (i) a $205,000 decrease in legal related fees, (ii) a $98,000 decrease in accounting related fees, and (iii) a $74,000 decrease in other professional fees.

Investor and public relations expenses decreased to $1,046,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, from $3,354,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Given the pending merger with ABTC, management has suspended the use of third-party consultants for investor and public relations services.

Salaries and wages increased to $1,264,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, from $454,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase of $810,000 is due (i) $419,000 for 2025 bonus accruals for our executive officers, (ii) $216,000 increase in compensation related to our CEO and VP of Energy, both hired during Q4 of 2024, (iii) $70,000 increase in employee benefits, and (iv) $105,000 increase in compensation for our directors.

Other expenses increased to $364,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, from $105,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase of $259,000 was due to an increase of $290,000 for repair work on our miner fleet, offset by a general decrease in other expenses of approximately $30,000.

*Stock-based compensation expense*

Stock-based compensation expense increased to $811,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, from $348,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is due to the issuance of restricted stock units to our CEO, VP of Energy and members of the Board of Directors during the fourth quarter of 2024.

*Depreciation expense*

Depreciation decreased to $1,586,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, from $6,539,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is due to the average remaining useful life of the mining fleet as of June 30, 2025 was 23 months, while the average remaining useful life of the mining fleet as of June 30, 2024 was 52 months.

*Unrealized gain on digital assets*

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred an unrealized gain on digital assets of $74,000 as compared to an unrealized gain of $1,385,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The fair market value of a Bitcoin as of December 31, 2024 was approximately $93,000 as compared to approximately $107,000 as of June 30, 2025. The increase of approximately $14,000 and the number of Bitcoin held by us (approximately 9 as of June 30, 2025) resulted in the unrealized gain for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The fair market value of a Bitcoin as of December 31, 2023 was approximately $43,000 as compared to approximately $62,000 as of June 30, 2024. The increase of approximately $19,000 and the number of Bitcoin held by us (approximately 16 as of June 30, 2024) resulted in an unrealized gain for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

*Unrealized loss on marketable securities*

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, unrealized loss on marketable securities was $43,000, as compared to $272,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025 related to a decrease in the fair market value of the underlying securities held.

*Gain on extinguishment of accounts payable* 

 

On March 7, 2025, the Company and Sphere 3D entered into a settlement and release agreement on mutually acceptable terms. The Settlement Agreement fully resolved all pending litigation between the Company and Sphere 3D, and each party fully released the other party from any known or unknown and unsuspected claims. As such the Company was relieved of a $449,000 payable to Sphere 3D, which was expensed as of the settlement date.

*Change in fair value of BTC Note*

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company had a note payable denominated in Bitcoin, which was accounted for under the fair value method of accounting. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a $6,895,000 increase in the fair value of notes payable. The note payable was settled in October 2024; therefore, the Company did not incur a fair value change for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

*Merger and acquisition costs*

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2025 merger and acquisition cost increased to $3,164,000 compared to $394,000 for June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company terminated the Giga Purchase Agreement and the Erikson Purchase Agreement. For the Giga Purchase Agreement, the Company had approximately $350,000 of cash deposits. For the Erikson Purchase Agreement, the Company had $447,000 of cash deposits and $161,000 of professional fees. The cash deposits and related professional fees were expensed as of each of the acquisition termination dates.

As of the Captus Assignment Agreement, the Company had approximately $1,953,000 of cash deposits and related professional fees, which were expensed as of the assignment date.

Also, the Company had approximately $223,000 of fees related to three other potential acquisitions. The $253,000 was expensed upon the termination dates of the contracts.

 

*Loss on disposal of asset*

 

Loss on disposal of asset was $83,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $146,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The loss related to the April 2025 disposal of 66 miners with a cost basis of approximately $132,000 and accumulated depreciation of approximately $49,000.

*ABTC merger costs*

 

On May 9, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with ABTC. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred approximately $989,000 of costs related to the ABTC merger, consisting of $543,000 for legal fees, $103,000 for accounting services, $200,000 for fairness opinion, $128,000 for the modification of the Anchorage warrant, and $15,000 of other miscellaneous expenses.

*Interest expense*

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, interest expense was $9,000 as compared to $620,000 for June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 interest expense was related to the note payable denominated in Bitcoin. As to the Bitcoin denominated note payable was settled in October 2024 and accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring, the new note payable principal balance was increased for aggregate interest expense accrued under the prior note, and as such the monthly interest payment reduces the note payable balance; therefore, the Company did not recognize interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

 

*Three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024*

*Mining revenues*

Mining revenues decreased to $1,377,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $5,515,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in mining revenues of $4,138,000 was due to a combination of factors. The average value of bitcoin mined for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $98,000 compared to $66,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $32,000, or 49.0%. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately 10,600 miners in operation compared to approximately 8,800 as of June 30, 2024. However, these increases in revenue recognized per bitcoin earned and operational miners were offset by the increase in global hashrate as well as the 50% reduction in block rewards due to the halving event in April 2024.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the average daily global hashrate was 875.7 exahash and 602.1 exahash, respectively, an increase of 45%.

*Cost of revenues*

Cost of revenues decreased to $1,608,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $3,803,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease of $2,195,000 was primarily due to a decrease in the number of Bitcoin mined offset by (i) an increase in Bitcoin network hashrate and (ii) higher energy costs.

Professional fees decreased to $419,000 for the three months ended June 30 2025, from $891,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease of $472,000 relates to (i) a $552,000 decrease in legal fees, (ii) a $34,000 decrease in accounting fees, and (iii) a $114,000 increase in other fees.

Investor and public relations expenses decreased to $313,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $2,467,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Given the pending merger with ABTC, management has suspended the use of third-party consultants for investor and public relations services.

Salaries and wages increased to $618,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $221,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase of $397,000 was due (i) $209,000 for bonus accruals for our executive officers, (ii) a $108,000 increase in compensation related to our CEO and VP of Energy, both hired during Q4 of 2024, (iii) a $23,000 increase in employee benefits, and (iv) a $57,000 increase in compensation for our directors.

*Stock-based compensation expense*

Stock-based compensation expense decreased to $39,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $140,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 our stock based compensation expense was $287,000, which was offset by a $248,000 reversal for the 2025 first quarter expense for the Captus Energy restricted stock awards, which were canceled during the second quarter of 2025, due to the Captus Energy Assignment Agreement.

*Depreciation expense*

Depreciation decreased to $515,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $3,292,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is due to the fact that average remaining useful life of the mining fleet as of June 30, 2025 was 23 months, while average remaining useful life of the mining fleet as of June 30, 2024 was 52 months.

*Unrealized loss (gain) on digital assets*

For the three months ended June 30, 2025 the Company incurred an unrealized gain on digital assets of $200,000 as compared to an unrealized loss of $318,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The fair market value of Bitcoin as of March 31, 2025 was approximately $83,000 as compared to approximately $107,000 as of June 30, 2025. The increase of approximately $24,000 and the number of Bitcoin held (approximately 9 as of June 30, 2025) resulted in the unrealized gain for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The fair market value of a Bitcoin as of April 30, 2023 was approximately $71,000 as compared to approximately $62,000 as of June 30, 2024. The decrease of approximately $9,000 and the number of Bitcoin held by us (approximately 16 as of June 30, 2024) resulted in an unrealized loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

*Unrealized gain (loss) on marketable securities*

For the three months ended June 30, 2025 unrealized gain on marketable securities was $23,000, as compared to an unrealized loss of $56,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The gain for the three months ended June 30, 2025 related to an increase in the fair market value of the underlying securities held.

 

*Change in fair value of BTC Note*

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company had a note payable denominated in Bitcoin, which was accounted for under the fair value method of accounting. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a $2,743,000 increase in the fair value of notes payable. The note payable was settled in October 2024; therefore, the Company did not incur a fair value change for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

*Merger and acquisition costs*

As of the date of the Captus Assignment Agreement, the Company had approximately $1,953,000 of cash deposits and related professional fees, which were expensed as of the assignment date.

 

*Loss on disposal of asset*

 

Loss on disposal of assets was $83,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $146,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The loss related to the April 2025 disposal of 66 miners with a cost basis of approximately $132,000 and accumulated depreciation of approximately $49,000.

 

*ABTC Merger costs*

 

On May 9, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with ABTC. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred approximately $989,000 of costs related to the ABTC merger, consisting of $543,000 for legal fees, $103,000 for accounting services, $200,000 for fairness opinion, $128,000 for the modification of the Anchorage warrant, and $15,000 of other miscellaneous expenses.

 

*Interest expense*

Interest expense of $290,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, was related to the note payable denominated in Bitcoin. As to the Bitcoin denominated note payable was settled in October 2024 and accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring, the new note payable principal balance was increased for aggregate interest expense accrued under the prior note, and as such the monthly interest payment reduces the note payable balance; therefore, the Company did not recognize interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $678,000 and $735,000, respectively, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $79,272,000 and $67,735,000, respectively. The Company financed its operations primarily through proceeds from the sales of its equity securities through private placements, its at-the-market program as described below, borrowings pursuant to the Sphere 3D Note and the BTC Note and cash flow from its digital currency mining operations.

The Company believes that its current levels of cash will not be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash needs for its operations for at least the next 12 months. The Company will require additional capital resources to fund its operations and pay its obligations as they come due over the next twelve months. The Company may also need to implement a strategy to expand its business or other investments or acquisitions. The Company may sell additional equity or debt securities or enter into a credit facility to satisfy its capital requirements. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to its shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require the Company to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict its operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company if at all. Any failure by the Company to raise additional funds on terms favorable to it, or at all, could limit its ability to expand its business operations and could harm its overall business prospects.

On June 10, 2024, the Company filed a prospectus supplement for the offering, issuance and sale of up to a maximum aggregate offering price of $70.0 million of common stock that may be issued and sold under an at-the-market issuance sales agreement with Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc., Kingswood Investments, a division of Kingswood Capital Partners, LLC, PI Financial (US) Corp. and ATB Capital Markets USA Inc., each respectively acting as sales agents (the "ATM"). The Company has used and intend to continue to use the net proceeds from the ATM for general corporate purposes, including without limitation, repurchases and redemptions of our common stock and general working capital. The ATM will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the issuance and sale of all of the shares of the common stock subject to the conditions set forth in the ATM or (ii) termination of the ATM as otherwise permitted thereunder. The ATM may be terminated at any time by either the Company or any sales agent with respect to itself upon five days' prior notice, or by the sales agents at any time in certain circumstances, including the occurrence of a material adverse effect on us. As of June 30, 2025, approximately $62.036 million in capacity remains under the ATM.

***Capital Expenditures and Other Obligations***

*<u>Blockfusion Agreement</u>*

See "—Recent Developments—Blockfusion Agreement" above.

*<u>Mawson Agreement</u>*

 ****

See "—Recent Developments—Mawson Agreement" above.

*<u>Note Payable</u>*

On May 25, 2022, Anchorage entered into an Equipment Loan and Security Agreement (as amended on March 27, 2023) with Gryphon Opco I LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to which Anchorage loaned Gryphon Opco the principal amount of 933.333333 bitcoin. Gryphon Opco's obligations under the Anchorage Loan Agreement were secured by certain equipment and software rights of Gryphon Opco and were guaranteed by Gryphon.

On October 25, 2024, Gryphon, its direct and indirect subsidiaries, as applicable, and Anchorage entered into the Debt Repayment and Exchange Agreement; Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement, Form of Pre-Funded Warrant and Form of $1.50 Warrant to restructure the Anchorage Loan and terminate the existing the Anchorage Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the New Anchorage Agreements, (i) approximately $9.1 million of the Anchorage Loan was converted into shares of Common Stock, at an ascribed value of $1.10 per share, resulting in the issuance of 8,287,984 shares of Common Stock to Anchorage in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, (ii) approximately $3.9 million of the Anchorage Loan was converted into warrants to purchase 3,530,198 shares of Common Stock, which warrants are exercisable immediately, have an unlimited term and an exercise price of $0.01 per share, in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and (iii) the remaining $5 million of the Anchorage Loan was exchanged for a new $5 million loan pursuant to the New Loan Agreement.

Pursuant to the New Loan Agreement:

● the outstanding principal and interest are denominated in dollars;

● the interest rate is 4.25% payable monthly;

● Anchorage has been given a first priority lien on all of Gryphon and its subsidiaries' assets;

● covenants related to mining machine locations and covenant ratios in the Anchorage Loan Agreement have been removed; and

● Anchorage may convert half of the outstanding principal at a price of $1.10 per share of Common Stock and the remaining half at a price of $1.50 per share of Common Stock.

The New Loan Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by Gryphon, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the purchasers, including for liabilities arising under the Securities Act, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Loan Agreement were made only for the purposes of such agreements and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

Pursuant to the New Anchorage Agreements, Gryphon also issued Anchorage warrants to purchase 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock, which warrants are exercisable immediately, will expire five years from the date of issuance and have an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The $1.50 Warrants were issued in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

The Restructured Loan and the Anchorage Warrants cannot be converted or exercised, respectively, if Anchorage (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 19.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the date of the New Anchorage Agreements after giving effect to such conversion or exercise without the approval of Gryphon's stockholders. Gryphon has agreed to seek such approval at its next annual meeting of stockholders.

On May 10, 2025, Gryphon entered into a warrant amendment with Anchorage to amend the $1.50 Warrants. Pursuant to the Amendment, Gryphon reduced the exercise price of the $1.50 Warrants from $1.50 to $0.55 per share and, subject to the closing of the Mergers, will remove Section 15 of the $1.50 Warrants, which provides most favored nation rights.

All of the Anchorage Warrants have been exercised and none remain outstanding.

***Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements***

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

**Critical Accounting Estimates**

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or results of operations would be affected. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable after taking into account our circumstances and expectations for the future based on available information. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.

We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (i) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (ii) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. There are items within our financial statements that require estimation but are not deemed critical, as defined above.

The critical accounting policies, and the judgements, estimates, and assumptions associated with such policies, that we believe have the greatest potential impact on the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements** 

From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standards-setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB ASC are communicated through the issuance of an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU"). The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs on the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or presentation thereof. Described below are ASUs that are not yet effective but may be applicable to the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or presentation thereof. As of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements, there were no ASUs that management assessed and determined to be applicable to the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or presentation thereof.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

In addition to the Company's results determined in accordance with GAAP, the Company also provides adjusted EBITDA, which is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Company provides investors with reconciliations from net loss to adjusted EBITDA as components of Management's Discussion and Analysis. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as (a) GAAP net income (loss) plus (b) adjustments to add back the impacts of (1) depreciation and amortization, (2) interest expense, (3) income tax expense (benefit) and (4) adjustments for non-cash and non-recurring items which currently include (i) stock compensation expense, (ii) change in fair value of notes payable (iii) gain on restructuring of bitcoin denominated note payable and (iv) unrealized (gain) loss on marketable equity securities.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure of performance under GAAP and, as a result, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures are subject to material limitations as they are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, measurements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are not meant to be considered in isolation and should be read only in conjunction with the Company's Interim Reports on Form 10-Q and its Annual Reports on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management uses adjusted EBITDA and the supplemental information provided herein as a means of understanding, managing, and evaluating business performance and to help inform operating decision making. The Company relies primarily on its consolidated financial statements to understand, manage, and evaluate its financial performance and use the non-GAAP financial measures only supplementally.

The following is a reconciliation of our non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure (i.e., net income (loss)) for the six months ended June 30:

**Recently Adopted Pronouncements**

On December 13, 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-08, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Crypto Assets (Topic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. ASU 2023-08 requires entities to measure crypto assets that meet specific criteria at fair value with changes recognized in net income each reporting period. Additionally, ASU 2023-08 requires an entity to present crypto assets measured at fair value separately from other intangible assets in the balance sheets and record changes from remeasurement of crypto assets separately from changes in the carrying amounts of other intangible assets in the income statement. The new standard is effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-08 on January 1, 2024. The adoption of the ASU 2023-08 was a $740,000 increase of our digital assets, as of January 1, 2024.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (ASC Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures." The amendments require the disclosure of significant segment expenses as well as expanded interim disclosures, along with other changes to segment disclosure requirements. The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2024. We have implemented the provisions of the ASU 2023-07. See Note 1.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.**

Not applicable for smaller reporting companies.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures.**

***Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures***

 ****

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our "Certifying Officers") conducted evaluations of our disclosure controls and procedures. As defined under Sections 13a - 15(e) and 15d - 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the term "disclosure controls and procedures" means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including the Certifying Officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Based on their evaluation, the Certifying Officers concluded that, as of June 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

The material weakness related to internal control over financial reporting that was identified at June 30, 2025 was that we did not have sufficient personnel staffing in our accounting and financial reporting department. As a result, we were not able to achieve adequate segregation of duties and were not able to provide for adequate review of the financial statements.

This control deficiency could result in a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. However, our management believes that the material weakness identified does not result in the restatement of any previously reported financial statements or any other related financial disclosure, and management does not believe that the material weakness had any effect on the accuracy of our financial statements included as part of this Report.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow. Management has commenced the following actions and will continue to assess additional opportunities for remediation on an ongoing basis:

● Continue the process that was started during 2024 of adding to the Company's internal resources to enhance its capabilities in the areas of technical accounting, financial reporting, and internal controls, that may include hiring a full-time person dedicated to internal controls.

● Utilize external third-party audit and SOX 404 implementation firms to enable the Company to improve the Company's controls related to its material weaknesses.

● Continue to evaluate existing processes and implement new processes and controls where necessary in connection with remediating the Company's material weaknesses, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively.

The Company recognizes that the material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting will not be considered remediated until the remediated controls operate for a sufficient period of time and can be tested and concluded by management to be designed and operating effectively. Because the Company's remediation efforts are ongoing, it cannot provide any assurance that these remediation efforts will be successful or that its internal control over financial reporting will be effective as a result of these efforts.

The Company continues to evaluate and work to improve its internal control over financial reporting related to the identified material weaknesses, and management may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify the remediation plan described above. In addition, the Company will report the progress and status of the above remediation efforts to the Audit Committee on a periodic basis.

***Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

 ****

During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**PART II - Other Information**

**Item 1. Legal Proceedings.**

*PPP Loan*

On April 21, 2020, the Company obtained a loan in the principal aggregate amount of $2.2 million (the "PPP Loan") pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the CARES Act, which was forgiven in full, by the SBA, on September 3, 2021.

On February 5, 2024, the Company received a letter, dated January 25, 2024, from the SBA, on behalf of Key Bank, in which the SBA indicated that, notwithstanding its prior notification of forgiveness, in full, of repayment of the PPP Loan, it was reviewing its prior determination of forgiveness for potential reversal. Specifically, the SBA indicated that based on its preliminary findings, the SBA is considering a full denial of the previously received forgiven amount based on the purported ineligibility of the Company to have received the PPP Loan under the SBA loan programs because the Company, operating as Akerna at the time of the PPP Loan, provided software support to the cannabis industry. The Company responded to the SBA on February 6, 2024, providing reasons as to why it believes it was eligible for the PPP Loan, but has not received any further correspondence from the SBA, since that date, and the SBA has not made any financial demands. The Company plans to continue to cooperate with any further inquiry from the SBA.

In January 2024, the Company received a civil investigative demand from the DOJ seeking information and documents about the PPP Loan. The Company is cooperating with the inquiry. At this time, there has been no formal demand for return of the PPP Loan proceeds, and no formal claim or lawsuit has been initiated against the Company.

*Former CEO Litigation*

As previously disclosed, on September 17, 2024, Robby Chang was terminated as Chief Executive Officer and President of Gryphon for cause, with immediate effect, by the Gryphon Board. Mr. Chang remains a member of the Gryphon Board.

On October 21, 2024, the Company received notice that both it and Ivy Crypto, Inc., a wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Company, have been named as defendants in a complaint filed by Mr. Chang in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Canada, alleging wrongful termination. The Company intends to defend this matter vigorously.

On October 22, 2024, the Gryphon Board created a special committee to oversee the Company's handling of the claim made by Mr. Chang, which is currently comprised of Steve Gutterman, Jimmy Vaiopoulos and Jessica Billingsley. The Company and Ivy Crypto, Inc. have served their Statement of Defense, and the parties agreed to proceed with a mediation of the dispute that was held on May 5, 2025. The mediation was unsuccessful, and the litigation remains unresolved. The potential outcome cannot be determined at this time.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors.**

Except for the additional risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes to our Risk Factors as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025, as amended.

***Neither Gryphon nor ABTC can be sure if or when the Mergers will be completed.***

The consummation of the Mergers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of various conditions. Neither Gryphon nor ABTC can guarantee that the closing conditions set forth in the ABTC Merger Agreement will be satisfied. If Gryphon is unable to satisfy the closing conditions in ABTC's favor or if other mutual closing conditions are not satisfied, ABTC will not be obligated to complete the Mergers. Under certain circumstances, Gryphon would be required to pay ABTC a termination fee of $5,000,000, in addition to the out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by or on behalf of ABTC in connection with the transactions contemplated by the ABTC Merger Agreement.

If the Mergers are not completed, the Gryphon Board, in discharging its fiduciary obligations to Gryphon stockholders, will evaluate other strategic alternatives or financing options that may be available, which alternatives may not be as favorable to Gryphon stockholders as the Mergers, if available at all. Any future sale, merger, financing or other transaction may be subject to further stockholder approval. Gryphon may also be unable to find, evaluate or complete other strategic alternatives, which may have a material adverse effect on Gryphon's business, financial condition or results of operations.

Gryphon's and ABTC's efforts to complete the Mergers could cause substantial disruptions in and create uncertainty surrounding, their respective businesses, which may materially adversely affect their results of operation and businesses. Uncertainty as to whether the Mergers will be completed may also affect Gryphon's and ABTC's ability to retain and motivate existing employees. A substantial amount of Gryphon's and ABTC's management's and employees' attention is being directed toward the Closing and thus is being diverted from their respective day-to-day operations. Uncertainty as to Gryphon's and ABTC's future could adversely affect their relationship with collaborators, suppliers, vendors, regulators and other business partners and stakeholders. For example, vendors, collaborators and other counterparties may defer decisions concerning working with Gryphon or ABTC or seek to change existing business relationships with Gryphon or ABTC, during the pendency of the Mergers. Changes to or termination of, existing business relationships could adversely affect Gryphon's results of operations and financial condition, as well as the market price of Gryphon Common Stock. The adverse effects of the pendency of the Mergers could be exacerbated by any delays in the Closing or by the termination of the ABTC Merger Agreement.

***The Closing is subject to approval by the Gryphon stockholders and the ABTC stockholders. Failure to obtain these approvals would prevent the Closing.***

The Closing is subject to certain approvals by the Gryphon stockholders and the ABTC stockholders. Failure to obtain the required stockholder approvals may result in a material delay in or the abandonment of, the Mergers. Any delay in completing the Mergers may materially adversely affect the timing and benefits that are expected to be achieved from the Mergers.

***Gryphon stockholders will experience significant ownership and voting power dilution in connection with the Mergers and may not realize a benefit from the Mergers commensurate with that dilution.***

Pursuant to the terms of the ABTC Merger Agreement and upon the Closing, the Gryphon stockholders as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time are expected to own 2.0% of the Combined Company Common Stock and the ABTC stockholders as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time are expected to own 98.0% of the Combined Company Common Stock, each on a fully diluted basis. ABTC stockholders who hold ABTC Class B Common Stock, including ABH, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hut 8, and certain other stockholders of ABTC, will receive Class B Common Stock, which will entitle the holder thereof to 10,000 votes per share. The Class A Common Stock that will be held by other stockholders of the Combined Company, including stockholders of Gryphon, will entitle the holder thereof to one vote per share. While the actual Exchange Ratio will be determined at the Closing, it is currently expected that ABTC stockholders as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time will collectively represent approximately 99.99% and holders of equity interests of Gryphon as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time will collectively represent less than 0.01% of the total combined voting power of Combined Company capital stock, respectively, at the Closing. In addition, it is currently expected that at the Closing, on the same basis, Hut 8 will own approximately 64.37% of the then-outstanding Combined Company Common Stock, on a fully diluted basis, which is expected to represent approximately 80.00% of the total combined voting power of the Combined Company capital stock.

Accordingly, the issuance of Combined Company Common Stock to ABTC stockholders in the Mergers will significantly reduce the ownership stake and relative voting power of each share of Gryphon Common Stock held by current Gryphon stockholders. Consequently, following the Mergers, the ability of current Gryphon stockholders to influence Combined Company management will be substantially reduced.

If the Combined Company is unable to realize the strategic and financial benefits currently anticipated from the Mergers, Gryphon stockholders will have experienced substantial dilution of their ownership interests in Gryphon without receiving the expected commensurate benefit or only receiving part of the commensurate benefit to the extent the Combined Company is able to realize only part of the expected strategic and financial benefits currently anticipated from the Mergers.

***The intended benefits of the Mergers may not be realized.***

The Mergers pose risks for Gryphon's and ABTC's ongoing operations, including, among others:

● that senior management's attention may be diverted from management of the respective businesses, current operations and development;

● that there are significant costs and expenses associated with any undisclosed or potential liabilities; and

● that unforeseen difficulties may arise in integrating Gryphon's and ABTC's businesses in the Combined Company.

As a result of the foregoing and other factors, risks and characteristics, the Combined Company may be unable to realize the full strategic and financial benefits currently anticipated from the Mergers and Gryphon and ABTC cannot assure you that the Mergers will be accretive to Gryphon or ABTC stockholders in the near term or at all. Furthermore, if Gryphon or ABTC stockholders fail to realize the intended benefits of the Mergers or they take longer than expected to achieve, the market price of the Combined Company's common stock could decline to the extent that the market price reflects those anticipated benefits. Gryphon stockholders will have experienced substantial dilution of their ownership interests in Gryphon without receiving any commensurate benefit or only receiving part of the commensurate benefit to the extent the Combined Company is able to realize only part of the strategic and financial benefits currently anticipated from the Mergers.

***Failure to complete the Mergers may result in Gryphon paying a termination fee to ABTC, which could significantly harm the price of the Gryphon Common Stock and Gryphon's future business and operations.***

If the Mergers are not completed and the ABTC Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, Gryphon may be required to pay ABTC a termination fee of $5,000,000, in addition to the out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by or on behalf of ABTC in connection with the transactions contemplated by the ABTC Merger Agreement. Even if such a termination fee is not payable in connection with a termination of the ABTC Merger Agreement, Gryphon will have incurred significant fees and expenses, which must be paid whether or not the Mergers are completed. Further, if the Mergers are not completed, it could significantly harm the market price of the Gryphon Common Stock.

In addition, if the ABTC Merger Agreement is terminated and Gryphon determines to seek another business combination, there can be no assurance that Gryphon will be able to find a partner and close an alternative transaction on terms that are as favorable as or more favorable to Gryphon than the terms set forth in the ABTC Merger Agreement or at all.

***The Mergers are subject to the requirements of the HSR Act, and regulatory authorities may impose conditions that could have an adverse effect on Gryphon and/or ABTC following the Mergers or that could delay, prevent or increase the costs associated with completion of the Mergers.***

Completion of the Mergers is conditioned upon the expiration or termination of any waiting period under the provisions of the HSR Act. Under the ABTC Merger Agreement, Gryphon and ABTC have agreed to use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary actions or non-actions, waivers, consents, approvals, orders and authorizations from governmental authorities and make all necessary registrations, declarations and filings with governmental authorities, that are necessary to consummate the Mergers. However, there can be no assurance that these approvals will be obtained and that the other conditions to completing the Mergers will be satisfied. In addition, the governmental authorities from which the regulatory approvals are required may impose conditions on the Closing or require changes to the terms of the ABTC Merger Agreement or other agreements to be entered into in connection with the ABTC Merger Agreement which may delay completion of the Mergers or impose additional material costs on or materially limit the revenues of the Combined Company following the completion of the Mergers. There can be no assurance that regulators will choose not to impose such conditions or changes in terms, and, if imposed, such conditions or changes in terms may delay or lead to the abandonment of the Mergers.

***The Mergers may be completed even though certain events occur prior to the Closing that materially and adversely affect Gryphon or ABTC.***

The ABTC Merger Agreement provides that either Gryphon or ABTC can refuse to complete the Mergers if there is a material adverse effect with the other party occurring between the date of the ABTC Merger Agreement and the Closing. However, certain types of changes do not permit either party to refuse to complete the Mergers, even if such change could be said to have a material adverse effect on Gryphon or ABTC, including, but not limited to:

● any changes in conditions generally affecting United States or global economic, business, regulatory conditions, including changes in United States or global securities, credit, financial, debt or other capital markets;

● conditions (or changes in such conditions) in the currency, Bitcoin mining, cryptocurrency, electricity, power or natural gas industry (including changes in cryptocurrency prices, commodity prices, general market prices and regulatory changes affecting the industry);

● general changes in national or international political conditions (including the imposition of or changes in international tariffs, sanctions, trade policies or disputes or any "trade war" and any cessation, outbreak or escalation of hostilities, any acts of war or terrorism or any other national or international calamity, crisis or emergency);

● acts of God, natural disasters, calamities, disease outbreaks or pandemics;

● any failure, in and of itself, by ABTC or any of its subsidiaries to meet any internal or published projections, forecasts, estimates or predictions in respect of revenues, earnings or other financial or operating metrics for any period;

● the execution and delivery of the ABTC Merger Agreement, the public announcement thereof, the pendency of the ABTC Merger Agreement, the impact thereof on the relationships of ABTC and its subsidiaries, with customers, suppliers or partners or the Closing;

● any changes after the date of the ABTC Merger Agreement not announced prior to the date of the Merger Agreement in any applicable law or U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ()"**U.S. GAAP** "), including, in each case, the authoritative interpretation or enforcement thereof;

● any action required by a governmental authority pursuant to antitrust laws in connection with the Mergers; and

● any action or omission taken by ABTC pursuant to the prior written request of Gryphon, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the ABTC Merger Agreement.

***Certain officers and directors of Gryphon have interests in the Mergers that may be different from or in addition to, the interests of Gryphon stockholders generally.***

Some of Gryphon's directors and officers have interests in the Mergers that are different from Gryphon's stockholders generally and that may influence them to support or approve the Mergers without regard to the interests of Gryphon's other stockholders. For example:

● based on the terms of his employment agreement, Steve Gutterman, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, will be entitled to receive a total value of approximately $2,290,794 in connection with the Closing, which consists of (i) $737,164 as part of severance payments under his employment agreement and (ii) approximately $1,553,630 in value associated with the accelerated vesting of outstanding unvested restricted stock units;

● based on the terms of his employment agreement, Simeon Salzman, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, will be entitled to receive a total value of approximately $412,500 in connection with the Closing, which consists of a severance payment under his employment agreement that is payable in twelve equal monthly installments;

● based on the terms of his employment agreement, Eric Gallie, the Company's Senior Vice President, Energy, will be entitled to receive a total value of approximately $835,000 in connection with the Closing, which consists of (i) $250,000 as part of severance payments under his employment agreement, payable in twelve equal monthly installments and (ii) approximately $585,000 in value associated with the accelerated vesting of outstanding unvested restricted stock units; and

● Gryphon's directors and officers will be eligible for continued indemnification and continued coverage under directors' and officers' liability insurance after the Mergers and pursuant to the terms of the ABTC Merger Agreement.

The Gryphon Board was aware of these interests and considered them, among other matters, in the decision to approve the ABTC Merger Agreement.

***Certain provisions of the ABTC Merger Agreement may discourage third parties from submitting alternative takeover proposals, including proposals that may be superior to the arrangements contemplated by the ABTC Merger Agreement.***

The ABTC Merger Agreement contains "no-shop" restrictions on Gryphon's ability to solicit, initiate, endorse, knowingly encourage or facilitate third party proposals relating to alternative transactions or to provide information to or engage in discussions with, a third party in relation to an alternative transaction, subject to certain exceptions to permit the Gryphon Board to comply with its fiduciary duties. The ABTC Merger Agreement also contains "force the vote" provisions that require Gryphon to hold the Special Meeting even if the Gryphon Board withdraws, amends or modifies its recommendation regarding the Proposals. Before the Gryphon Board may change its recommendation to stockholders to vote in favor of the Proposals, Gryphon must, among other things, provide ABTC with notice and negotiation rights. Upon the termination of the ABTC Merger Agreement in certain circumstances, including in connection with a Gryphon Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Proposal, Gryphon may be required to pay up to $5,000,000 as a termination fee, in addition to the out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by or on behalf of ABTC in connection with the transactions contemplated by the ABTC Merger Agreement.

These provisions could discourage a potential third party acquiror from considering or proposing an acquisition transaction, even if it were prepared to pay a higher price than what would be received in the Mergers. These provisions might also result in a potential third party acquiror proposing to pay a lower price than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the $5,000,000 termination fee and additional ABTC fees and expenses that may become payable.

If the ABTC Merger Agreement is terminated and Gryphon determines to seek another business combination, Gryphon may not be able to negotiate a transaction with another party on terms comparable to or better than, the terms of the ABTC Merger Agreement or at all.

Furthermore, as noted above, certain Gryphon securityholders holding an aggregate of approximately 19.29% of the outstanding voting securities of Gryphon as of May 9, 2025 have entered into support agreements. These Gryphon securityholders also agreed to vote against any Gryphon Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the ABTC Merger Agreement) or any other proposal with respect to Gryphon that is in opposition to or in competition with, the Mergers. As a result, the support agreements may discourage other parties from attempting to engage in a transaction with Gryphon, even if those parties would otherwise be willing to offer greater value to Gryphon stockholders than that offered by ABTC under the Mergers.

***Gryphon will be subject to certain contractual restrictions while the Mergers are pending****.*

The ABTC Merger Agreement restricts Gryphon from making certain acquisitions and divestitures, entering into certain contracts, incurring certain indebtedness and expenditures, paying dividends, repurchasing or, with respect to Gryphon, issuing equity securities outside certain limited exceptions and taking other specified actions until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the ABTC Merger Agreement without the consent of the other party. These restrictions may prevent Gryphon from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the Closing and could have the effect of delaying or preventing other strategic transactions. Adverse effects arising from the pendency of the Mergers could be exacerbated by any delays in the Closing or the termination of the ABTC Merger Agreement.

***The market price of Gryphon Common Stock may decline and the value of ABTC's securities may be adversely affected as a result of the announcement and pendency of the Mergers****.*

The market price of Gryphon Common Stock may decline and the value of ABTC's securities may be adversely affected as a result of the announcement and pendency of the Mergers for a number of reasons, including if:

● investors react negatively to the prospects of the Combined Company's business and financial condition following the Mergers; and/or

● the attention of Gryphon or ABTC management is directed towards the Closing and other transaction-related considerations and is diverted from the day-to-day business operations of Gryphon or ABTC, as applicable and matters related to the Mergers require commitments of time and resources that could otherwise have been devoted to other opportunities that might have been beneficial to Gryphon or ABTC, as applicable.

A decline in the market price of Gryphon Common Stock or an adverse effect upon the value of ABTC's securities could adversely affect the businesses of, or harm the financial condition, results of operations or business prospects of, Gryphon, ABTC or the Combined Company.

***If the Mergers are not completed, the Gryphon Board may decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation of Gryphon. In such an event, the amount of cash available for distribution to its stockholders will depend heavily on the timing of such liquidation as well as the amount of cash that will need to be reserved for commitments and contingent liabilities.***

There can be no assurance that the Mergers will be completed. If the Mergers are not completed, the Gryphon Board may decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation of Gryphon. In such an event, the amount of cash available for distribution to Gryphon stockholders will depend heavily on the timing of such decision, as with the passage of time the amount of cash available for distribution is expected to be reduced as Gryphon continues to fund its operations and transaction-related expenses. In addition, if the Gryphon Board were to approve and recommend and Gryphon stockholders were to approve, a dissolution and liquidation of Gryphon, Gryphon would be required under Delaware corporate law to pay its outstanding obligations, as well as to make reasonable provision for contingent and unknown obligations, prior to making any distributions in liquidation to Gryphon stockholders. As a result of this requirement, a portion of Gryphon's remaining cash assets may need to be reserved pending the resolution of such obligations. In addition, Gryphon may be subject to litigation or other claims related to a dissolution and liquidation. If a dissolution and liquidation were pursued, the Gryphon Board, in consultation with its advisors, would need to evaluate these matters and make a determination about a reasonable amount to reserve. Accordingly, holders of Gryphon Common Stock could lose all or a significant portion of their investment in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Gryphon.

***Litigation relating to the Mergers could require Gryphon to incur significant costs and suffer management distraction and could delay or enjoin the Mergers.***

Gryphon could be subject to demands or litigation related to the Mergers, whether or not the Mergers are consummated. Such actions may create uncertainty relating to the Mergers or delay or enjoin the Mergers and responding to such demands is often expensive and could divert management time and resources. In addition, such demands or litigation could lead to a dissolution or bankruptcy of Gryphon if the costs associated with such demands or litigation are significant enough.

***Gryphon and ABTC are expected to incur substantial expenses related to the Mergers.***

Gryphon and ABTC have incurred and expect to continue to incur, substantial fees and expenses in connection with the Mergers, including legal, accounting, financial advisory and other transaction fees and costs associated with the Mergers. Additionally, as the controlling stockholder of ABTC, Hut 8 has incurred and expects to continue to incur fees and expenses in connection with the Mergers, and such costs are expected to be borne by ABTC.

As of June 25, 2025, ABTC has incurred approximately $4.3 million of fees and expenses related to the Mergers, primarily consisting of legal, audit and accounting fees, and anticipates incurring approximately $0.9 million of additional fees and expenses prior to the Closing. As of June 25, 2025, Gryphon has incurred approximately $0.9 million of fees and expenses related to the Mergers, primarily consisting of legal, audit and accounting fees, and anticipates incurring approximately $1.1 million of additional fees and expenses prior to the Closing. Actual transaction costs may substantially exceed Gryphon's and ABTC's respective estimates and may have an adverse effect on the Combined Company's financial condition and operating results.

In addition, the Combined Company may also incur significant integration-related fees and costs related to formulating and implementing integration plans, including facilities and systems consolidation costs and employment-related costs. Gryphon and ABTC continue to assess the magnitude of these costs and additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the Mergers and the integration of the two companies' businesses.

***Gryphon or ABTC may waive one or more of the Closing conditions without re-soliciting stockholder approval.***

Gryphon or ABTC may determine to waive, in whole or in part, one or more of the conditions to its obligations to consummate the Mergers. Gryphon and ABTC expect to evaluate the materiality of any waiver and its effect on Gryphon or ABTC stockholders, as applicable, in light of the facts and circumstances at the time to determine whether any amendment of the merger proxy statement/prospectus or any re-solicitation of proxies, approvals or voting cards is required in light of such waiver. Any determination to waive any condition to the Mergers or as to re-soliciting stockholder approval or amending the merger proxy statement/prospectus as a result of a waiver will be made by Gryphon or ABTC, as applicable, at the time of such waiver based on the facts and circumstances as they exist at that time.

***Following the completion of the Mergers, the Combined Company may issue additional securities.***

Following the completion of the Mergers, the Combined Company may issue additional securities (including equity securities) to finance its activities. If the Combined Company were to issue additional equity securities, the ownership interest of existing Gryphon and ABTC stockholders may be diluted and some or all of the Combined Company's financial measures on a per share basis could be reduced. Moreover, as the Combined Company's intention to issue additional equity securities becomes publicly known, the Combined Company's share price may be materially adversely affected.

**Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds**

Except as previously reported in our Current Reports on Form 8-K, we did not undertake any unregistered sales of our equity securities during the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company did not repurchase any of its common shares.

**Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.**

None.

**Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.**

Not applicable.

**Item 5. Other Information.**
