Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc Relocating 5,376 ASIC Miners to Pennsylvania Sites
Closes Australian ‘Condong’ Site and redeploying 8 x 2.5 MW Mobile Data Centers for Deployment in Q2, 2023
Strategic decision to focus entirely on the United States and to continue the execution of its 220 MW facilities in Midland and Sharon, PA respectively
All equipment is fully funded and in transit to PA for projected Q2 deployment
Sharon, PA — February 23, 2023 — Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. (NASDAQ:MIGI) (“Mawson” or the “Company”), a digital infrastructure provider, announces today that it has closed its facility in Condong, NSW, Australia, with a focus on its operations in the United States exclusively, with all Mawson owned ASIC miners and MDC equipment being transferred to Pennsylvania for deployment.
All equipment is expected to be deployed in Q2, which includes 5,376 ASIC miners, and eight (8) new generation MDCs which are capable of holding 672 ASIC miners each, or 5,376 ASIC miners in total.
Mawson is concentrating all current efforts on the 120 MW Sharon, PA facility, and the 100 MW Midland, PA facility. The entire 100 MW Midland facility is due to come online in early Q2, 2023 and the first 12 MW of the 120 MW Sharon facility is also due to come online in early Q2, 2023.
Mawson expects to have 112 MW online in early Q2, 2023 representing enough power for up to 33,000 ASIC miners, operating at approximately 3.6 EH/second¹. This capacity expansion could potentially generate up to approximately 14.5 BTC per day, or approximately $132 million in revenue per year, at the current Bitcoin price.
James Manning, CEO, commented “Mawson continues to push forward with our operations in the United States. As such, we made the strategic decision post closure of the Australian facility to relocate all our Australian assets to the US, and focus our resources on building out the 220 MW of facilities we have in Pennsylvania. All 5,376 ASIC units have either arrived or are soon arriving for deployment in PA with the MDC’s to follow. We look forward to seeing these units come online in early Q2, 2023.”
¹Statements about ASIC miner capacity and Exahash forecasts in this document are not an assurance that Mawson will have that many ASIC miners available to deploy (whether self-mining or hosted units). Mawson’s ability to deploy units will depend on many factors such as Mawson’s future ASIC miner purchases and sales, our ability to attract future hosting customers, and the number of ASIC miners customers have to deploy.

¹Assumes all equipment deployed and 100% online, plus the construction of all contracted sites on time, actual results are likely to vary in a negative manner. Construction delays are common and it is rare for all equipment to be deployed and 100% online, however accurate historical downtime averages are difficult to calculate and also may not provide an accurate picture due to differences moving forward. Investors should consider all risk factors related to uptime when considering these figures, which are a best case scenario. The above information is for general information purposes only, and are forward looking statements which should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results.
