Business Description
Mawson Infrastructure Group, which rebranded as Big Digital Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: BGDE) in April 2026, is a Nasdaq-listed digital infrastructure operator headquartered in Midland, Pennsylvania, running 129 MW of active data center capacity within the PJM energy market.
The company operates four lines of business: AI and HPC colocation, digital asset colocation, self-operated Bitcoin mining, and energy management. Its Pennsylvania data centers sit within PJM, one of North America's largest deregulated wholesale electricity markets. Mawson's energy strategy draws on a mix of carbon-free sources including nuclear power, positioning its compute infrastructure for enterprise tenants with emissions-reporting requirements. The company also applies electricity procurement expertise through its energy management segment as a lever to reduce per-unit operating costs, a capability the company has described as core to its mobile data center deployment model.
In March 2025, Mawson signed a 64 MW digital colocation agreement with Canaan Inc. covering approximately 17,453 latest-generation ASICs under a three-year initial term. That contract helped drive a reported 136% year-over-year increase in digital colocation revenue during 2024, contributing to total FY2024 revenue of $59.3 million, a 36% gain from the prior year, though the company reported a net loss of $46.3 million on gross profit of $20.3 million. In a February 2026 preliminary release for FY2025, the company guided for revenue of approximately $39.8 million alongside a sharply improved gross margin of 44% versus 34% in FY2024, with net loss narrowing to an estimated $23.8 million, a roughly 49% reduction driven by the continuing mix shift from self-mining toward higher-margin colocation.
April 2026 brought simultaneous leadership and corporate changes: Joshua Kilgore was appointed Executive Chairman, Phil Stanley became CEO, and Cody Smith joined as COO, coinciding with the rebranding from Mawson Infrastructure Group to Big Digital Energy. The company had separately disclosed in February 2026 a confidential settlement with Ionic Digital Mining LLC resolving co-location agreement claims, which together with a second hosting-dispute settlement reduced current liabilities by approximately $19 million. Within days of the rebrand, the company executed a 75 MW colocation agreement with an affiliate of the Endeavor Group covering approximately 25,000 mining computers, structured as a 50/50 profit-sharing arrangement with Endeavor compensated through common stock and warrants rather than cash fees. Also in April 2026, Mawson received a Nasdaq listing-standard determination notice; management confirmed it was already in compliance and formally requested a hearing.
An Ohio site under development is targeted to add an initial 24 MW, which would bring Big Digital Energy's total operating capacity to approximately 153 MW and extend its PJM-anchored digital infrastructure footprint beyond its current Pennsylvania base.
