Riot, which owns approximately 14.9% of Bitfarms' common shares, has withdrawn its previous proposal to acquire Bitfarms for US$2.30 per share and is seeking to engage with a reconstituted board on a potential business combination. Riot has nominated three independent directors to replace current board members, citing the need for change due to poor corporate governance and the board's inability to realize Bitfarms' full potential. Riot has also applied to the Ontario Capital Markets Tribunal to cease-trade the shareholder rights plan adopted by Bitfarms' board. The move comes after a year of unsuccessful engagement with Bitfarms' board regarding a potential merger. Riot's action reflects its belief that a combination of the two companies would create a leading, geographically diversified Bitcoin miner. The company has filed an early warning report and will be filing a dissident information circular in due course.
2024年6月24日,比特幣礦業和數字基礎設施公司Riot Platforms,Inc.宣佈其意向通過徵求股東特別會議的方式重組Bitfarms Ltd. 的董事會。Riot擁有約14.9%的Bitfarms普通股,已撤回以每股2.30美元的價格收購Bitfarms的提議,並尋求與新組建的董事會就潛在的業務合併進行接觸。Riot已提名三名獨立董事以取代現任董事會成員,並聲稱需要改變由於公司治理不善和董事會未能實現Bitfarms的全部潛力所帶來的變化。Riot還向安大略資本市場仲裁庭申請暫停Bitfarms董事會採用的股東權益計劃。此舉是在經過一年未能就潛在合併與Bitfarms的董事會進行成功的接觸之後採取的。Riot的行動反映了其認爲兩家公司的合併將創建一個領先的、地理多元化的比特幣礦工公司的信念。該公司已提交了一份早期警告報告,並將在適當的時候提交異議信息通告。
