"In January, our power assets demonstrated the flexibility and resilience of our operating model," said Bruce Rodgers, Chairman and CEO of LM Funding. "During Winter Storm Fern, we proactively redirected power back to the grid to support local energy needs and help stabilize the grid during a critical period. As a result, we generated over a quarter's worth of our average energy and curtailment sales in a single weekend and are forecasting sales of approximately $315,000 for the month, equivalent to nearly 4.0 Bitcoin."

"Even with a weekend of curtailment during Winter Storm Fern, we increased our total Bitcoin production for the month as we brought our second immersion container in Oklahoma online," said Ryan Duran, President of USDM. "Importantly, our energy and curtailment sales have effectively no associated marginal costs and offsets any potential lost mining revenue."

The Company estimates that the value of its 364.1 Bitcoin holdings on January 31, 2026, was approximately $29.1 million or $1.36¹ per share, based on a Bitcoin price of approximately $79,960 as of January 31, 2026, compared to a stock share price of $0.40 as of January 30, 2026 close.
