Bitfarms stock dips despite $110m acquisition

Canadian Bitcoin miner Bitfarms has finalized the acquisition of Stronghold Digital Mining, marking the largest-ever merger between two publicly listed Bitcoin mining companies. According to a press release published on March 17, Bitfarms has completed the all-stock acquisition of Stronghold Digital Mining. The merger was approved on Feb. 28, with 99.6% of votes cast voting in favor, representing about 54.5% of Stronghold’s outstanding shares. Bitfarms acquired Stronghold through a stock-for-stock merger, with Stronghold shareholders receiving 2.52 Bitfarms shares for each Stronghold share they owned. Nearly 60 million Bitfarms shares and over 10.5 million warrants were issued as part of the deal. Stronghold’s stock was removed from Nasdaq and stopped trading.
