Bitfarms (BITF) Expands North American Operations Amid Q3 Financial Challenges

Bitfarms Ltd. (Nasdaq/TSX: BITF), a leading energy and digital infrastructure company, has released its financial results for the third quarter of 2025, showcasing both growth and challenges. According to GlobeNewswire, the company reported a total revenue of $69 million from continuing operations, marking a 156% year-over-year increase. However, Bitfarms also experienced a net loss of $46 million from continuing operations, compared to a $24 million loss in the same quarter last year.

Strategic Expansion and Infrastructure Development

Bitfarms is actively pivoting towards becoming a dominant player in North American energy and digital infrastructure, with a particular focus on high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI). The company has announced plans to convert its Washington site to support HPC/AI workloads, targeting completion by December 2026. This site will feature advanced liquid cooling and is designed to accommodate Nvidia's next-generation Vera Rubin GPUs, which are anticipated to ship in late 2026.

The company has also secured a fully binding agreement for $128 million to supply critical IT equipment and building materials for 18 MW of gross capacity. Additionally, Bitfarms is exploring the expansion of its Panther Creek and Sharon sites, with the potential to increase power capacity significantly.

Financial Maneuvers and Liquidity

In terms of financial strategy, Bitfarms successfully closed a $588 million convertible notes offering. The company also converted its $300 million Macquarie debt facility into a project-specific financing arrangement for the development of its Panther Creek campus. As of November 12, 2025, Bitfarms reported liquidity of approximately $814 million, comprising $637 million in cash and $177 million in unencumbered Bitcoin.

Despite these financial maneuvers, Bitfarms faces ongoing challenges, including a decline in its gross mining margin to 35%, down from 44% in Q3 2024. The company earned 520 BTC during the quarter at an average direct cost of $48,200 per BTC.

Operational Shifts and Executive Changes

Bitfarms has made significant operational changes, including the discontinuation of its operations in Argentina and Paraguay as part of its strategic shift towards North American HPC/AI infrastructure projects. The company reported $14 million in revenue from these discontinued operations, with a net loss of $35 million, largely due to asset reclassification costs.

Leadership changes include the retirement of CFO Jeffrey Lucas, with Jonathan Mir stepping in as his successor. Additionally, former Amazon Web Services executive Wayne Duso has joined the Board of Directors.

Future Outlook

Looking forward, Bitfarms is committed to expanding its infrastructure to meet the anticipated demand for AI and HPC capabilities. The company is poised to capitalize on its strong energy portfolio, which includes 2.1 GW of power infrastructure assets across the U.S. and Canada. With its strategic focus on North America, Bitfarms aims to lead the industry in the development of infrastructure for next-generation AI hardware.
