On April 27, 2026, Hut 8 DC LLC (the “Issuer”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Hut 8 Corp. (the “Company”), formally announced its intention to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $3,248 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2042 (the “Notes”) in a private offering (the “Offering”) to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Issuer intends to use the proceeds from the Offering to (i) finance a portion of the development and construction of a turnkey data center with 245 megawatts of critical IT capacity and the related substation at the Company's River Bend campus located in St. Francisville, Louisiana (collectively, the “Data Center Project”), (ii) reimburse the Company for a portion of its prior equity contributions to the Issuer that were used to fund capital expenditures relating to the Data Center Project, (iii) fund debt service reserves and (iv) pay fees and expenses in connection with the Offering.
Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K is certain illustrative financial information (the “Illustrative Financial Information”) concerning the Data Center Project that has been disclosed by the Issuer in connection with the Offering.
The information included in this Item 7.01 and in the Illustrative Financial Information attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall any such information or exhibits be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such document.
The information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.

These statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the Data Center Project, statements relating to the completion, size and timing of the Offering, the anticipated use of any proceeds from the Offering, and the terms of the Notes. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including uncertainties related to market conditions and the completion of the Offering on the anticipated terms or at all, and the other factors described from time to time in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In particular, see the Company’s recent and upcoming annual and quarterly reports and other continuous disclosure documents, which are available under the Company’s EDGAR profile at www.sec.gov and SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
