Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 27, 2025) - (Block Height: 911,961) - Cathedra Bitcoin Inc. (TSXV: CBIT) (OTCQB: CBTTF) ("Cathedra", the "Company", "we" or "us"), a leading developer and operator of digital infrastructure assets across North America, today announces its financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Highlights
Total revenue reached C$5.2 million.
The Company recorded a net loss of C$4.2 million, primarily driven by an unrealized foreign exchange loss of $2.3 million, resulting from the revaluation of intercompany balances denominated in U.S. dollars to Canadian dollars. This non-cash accounting adjustment reflects currency volatility and its impact on financial obligations.
Subsequent events:
Leadership Transition: Effective July 10, 2025, Joel Block was appointed Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), bringing extensive industry expertise and operational leadership to the Company. Concurrently, Antonin Scalia and Thomas Armstrong stepped down from their executive and Board roles, transitioning to advisory positions to support transition efforts.
Debt Repayment: The Company successfully prepaid its US$2.56 million loan by liquidating approximately 21.5 bitcoin, capitalizing on favorable bitcoin price appreciation at the time of liquidation. Cathedra retained approximately 28.9 bitcoin to bolster its working capital position.
Data Center Expansion: On July 22, 2025, Cathedra executed a long-term lease agreement to develop a new 15-megawatt (MW) data center, which management expects to increase the Company's online power capacity by approximately 50%, further enhancing its operational scale and efficiency.
Infrastructure Development: The Company has continued to advance its pipeline of high-potential sites, including the previously announced 10-MW center project in Tennessee, reinforcing its commitment to expanding its bitcoin mining infrastructure.
Management Commentary
"The past few months have been a pivotal period for Cathedra, as we capitalized on favorable market conditions to strengthen our financial position and advance our strategic objectives," said Joel Block, CEO of Cathedra. "We took decisive action to prepay existing indebtedness, funded by liquidation of approximately 21.5 bitcoin, which had appreciated by more than 50% since the loan's inception. The prepayment allows Cathedra to retire the debt efficiently while retaining 28.9 bitcoin to further strengthen its balance sheet. This move enhances our financial flexibility and positions us to pursue high-impact growth initiatives aimed at driving long-term shareholder value."
Block continued, "In parallel, we executed a new lease agreement to develop an additional 15 MW of power capacity, which, if successfully developed, will expand our portfolio by nearly 50%. Our experienced team quickly mobilized, starting development in August 2025 and we expect this site to be fully online by October 2025. This initiative underscores our commitment to scaling energy infrastructure to meet growing demand for bitcoin mining and hosting services. We are also refining our power strategy across the portfolio to optimize efficiency and reduce costs, ensuring Cathedra remains competitive in a dynamic market. Since my appointment, the management team has rigorously reviewed our operations, strategy, and opportunities, with a focus on building a resilient, growth-oriented company through disciplined capital management and strategic expansion."
