"March continued our improved mining performance as we produced 9.6 Bitcoin and reached our highest hashrate to date," said Bruce Rodgers, Chairman and CEO of LM Funding. "We remain focused on converting that operational strength into Bitcoin accumulation while highlighting the significant disconnect between the value of our Bitcoin holdings and our current market valuation."

"The 300 Bitmain S19 XP miners deployed at our Oklahoma facility last month resulted in our highest total hashrate to date," said Ryan Duran, President of USDM. "This expansion reflects our ongoing commitment to scaling our fleet and continuously improving mining output across all of our operations."

"We renegotiated our $11 million Galaxy Digital Loan by extending the maturity date until June 26, 2026," said Richard Russell, Chief Financial Officer. "The flexibility offered by Galaxy Digital will enable us to take advantage of any upside in Bitcoin."

The Company estimates that the value of its 341.2 Bitcoin holdings on March 31, 2026, was approximately $22.9 million or $1.07¹ per share, based on a Bitcoin price of approximately $67,300 as of March 31, 2026, compared to a stock share price of $0.25 as March 31, 2026 close.
