AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Ionic Digital Inc. ("Ionic Digital" or the "Company"), a digital infrastructure company supporting the expanding needs of AI and high-performance computing, today issued its unaudited Mining and Operations Update for December 2025.

In the month of December, Ionic Digital mined 37.34 Bitcoin ("BTC"), representing a 29% decrease from the month prior. The decline in production was primarily driven by the planned wind-down of mining operations at the Cedarvale facility, in advance of its transition to Nscale, a vertically integrated AI cloud provider, as announced in October.

Following the Company's previously announced 10-year lease agreement with Nscale for its Cedarvale facility, the Company commenced work with its partners on site to de-rack existing miners and reposition related assets. In December, Nscale took possession of the Cedarvale facility, and all mining equipment was transferred out as part of the site's operational handoff. Ionic Digital continues to work closely with Nscale and its partners at the site.

The Company's remaining self-mining operations are now concentrated at its Midland site following the Cedarvale-Nscale transition. As part of this shift, the Company is strategically redeploying its most efficient miners to the Midland site, a move designed to optimize fleet deployment and maximize mining efficiency. The redeployment is expected to be completed by the second quarter of 2026.

Ionic Digital continues to maintain its zero-debt position and liquidated no BTC in December. As of December 31, 2025, the Company held 2,719.5 BTC, an increase of 37.1 BTC over the prior month.
