Our Business
Bitcoin Depot owns and operates the largest network of Bitcoin ATMs (BTMs) across North America where customers can buy and sell Bitcoin. Bitcoin Depot helps power the digital economy for users of cash.
Our mission is Bringing Bitcoin to the MassesTM. Digital means and systems dominate the way that consumers send money, make purchases, and invest; however, we believe that many people utilize cash as their primary means of initiating a transaction, either as a necessity or as a preference. These individuals have largely been excluded from the digital financial system and associated technological advancements in our global and digitally interconnected society. Bitcoin Depots simple and convenient process to convert cash into Bitcoin via our BTMs and feature-rich mobile app enables not only these users, but also the broader public, to access the digital financial system.
As of September 30, 2024, our offerings included approximately 8,304 BTMs in retailer locations throughout the U.S. and Canada, our BDCheckout product, which is accepted at approximately 7,723 retail locations, and our mobile app. We maintain a leading position among cash-to-Bitcoin BTM operators in the U.S. and Canada.
Kiosk Network and Retailer Relationships
Bitcoin Depot operates a network of kiosks that allow users to purchase Bitcoin with cash. Upon using a Bitcoin Depot kiosk for the first time, users will be prompted to provide certain information for account creation and verification. Users are required to select from three ranges of cash amounts to be inserted in the kiosk for purchasing Bitcoin. The user then provides the address of his or her digital wallet by scanning a QR code or manually inputting his or her unique wallet address; the user can create and use a Bitcoin Depot-branded wallet (un-hosted and non-custodial), or his or her own other existing digital wallet. Cash is then inserted by the user into the kiosk, and the kiosk will confirm the dollar amount and other details of the transaction, including quantity of Bitcoin being purchased. Once the transaction is complete, the Bitcoin is electronically delivered to the users digital wallet and the user is provided with a physical receipt as well as a receipt via SMS text.
Bitcoin Depots largest BTM deployment as of September 30, 2024 is with Circle K, a convenience store chain of over 9,000 stores in North America and over 4,800 stores in Europe and other international markets. We are the exclusive provider and operator of BTMs for Circle K in the U.S. and Canada, and as of September 30, 2024, we have installed our BTMs in over 1,200 Circle K stores. We also have kiosks deployed in other convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores, pharmacies, and shopping malls.
Cryptocurrencies
Our revenues, $436.9 million and $540.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, have not been correlated to the price of Bitcoin historically, even in light of volatile Bitcoin prices. For example, our revenue during the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2024 declined by 15.2% compared to the same period ended September 30, 2023, while the market price of Bitcoin increased by 127% during the same period. Based on our own user surveys, a majority of our users use our products and services for non-speculative purposes, including money transfers, international remittances, and online purchases, among others.

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company
We are a smaller reporting company as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies and will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as (i) the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter or (ii) our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company, we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation, and if we are a smaller reporting company with less than $100 million in annual revenue, we would not be required obtain an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED STOCK
Preferred Stock
We are authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock.

The powers (including voting powers), preferences, and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of each series of preferred stock and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, may differ from those of any other series at any time outstanding. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock, the number of authorized shares of preferred stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares of preferred stock then outstanding) by the approval of our board of directors and by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in an election of directors, without the separate vote of the holders of the preferred stock as a class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

We may issue warrants to purchase shares of our common stock and/or preferred stock in one or more series together with other securities or separately, as described in each applicable prospectus supplement.
The prospectus supplement relating to any warrants we offer will include specific terms relating to the offering. These terms will include some or all of the following:

| the designation, number and terms of the shares of common stock or preferred stock purchasable upon exercise of the warrants and procedures by which those numbers may be adjusted; |
| the exercise price of the warrants; |
| the dates or periods during which the warrants are exercisable; |

These warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a purchase price of $11.50 and expire on June 30, 2028. Warrants that we issue in the future may, but will not necessarily, be issued on the same terms as our existing issued and outstanding warrants.
13
We may issue, in one or more series, units comprised of shares of our Class A common stock and/or preferred stock, warrants to purchase Class A common stock and/or preferred stock or any combination of those securities. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date.
We may evidence units by unit certificates that we issue under a separate agreement. We may issue the units under a unit agreement between us and one or more unit agents. If we elect to enter into a unit agreement with a unit agent, the unit agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the units and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any registered holders of units or beneficial owners of units. We will indicate the name and address and other information regarding the unit agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of units if we elect to use a unit agent.
We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of units being offered, including:
| the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately; |
| any provisions of the governing unit agreement that differ from those described herein; and |
| any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units. |
The other provisions regarding our Class A common stock, preferred stock and warrants as described in this section will apply to each unit to the extent such unit consists of shares of our Class A common stock and/or warrants.
14
We may sell the securities covered in this prospectus in one or more of the following ways:
| through underwriters or dealers; |
| in short or long transactions; |
| directly to a limited number of purchasers or to a single purchaser; |
| through agents, including via an at-the-market program; or |
| through a combination of any of these methods of sale. |
Each time that we use this prospectus to sell securities, we will also provide a prospectus supplement that contains the specific terms of the offering. The prospectus supplement will set forth the terms of the offering of the securities, including:
| the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents and the amounts of any securities underwritten or purchased by each of them; and |
| the purchase price of the securities being offered and the proceeds to us and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers. |

The securities may be either offered to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters, or directly by underwriters. Generally, the underwriters obligations to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities if they purchase any of securities. Only underwriters named in the applicable prospectus supplement shall be underwriters of the securities offered thereby.
We may sell the securities through agents from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities and any commissions we pay to them. Generally, any agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.
We may authorize underwriters, dealers or agents to solicit offers by certain purchasers to purchase the securities from us at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified applicable date in the future. The contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement, and the prospectus supplement will set forth any commissions we pay for solicitation of these contracts.
Agents and underwriters may be entitled to indemnification by us against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), or to contribution with respect to payments which the agents or underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof. Agents and underwriters may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business.
We may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by us
15
or borrowed from us or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of securities and may use securities received from us in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of securities. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). We may also use underwriters or such other third parties with whom we have a material relationship. We will describe the nature of any such relationship in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Upon written instruction from us, after entering into a distribution agency agreement with us, a sales agent may use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell on our behalf, as our agent, the shares of Class A common stock offered as agreed upon by us and the sales agent. We will designate the maximum amount of shares of Class A common stock to be sold through the sales agent, on a daily basis or otherwise as we and the sales agent agree. Subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable distribution agency agreement, the sales agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell, as our sales agent and on our behalf, all of the designated shares of Class A common stock. We may instruct the sales agent not to sell shares of Class A common stock if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us in any such instruction. We may suspend the offering of shares of Class A common stock under any distribution agency agreement by notifying the sales agent. Likewise, the sales agent may suspend the offering of shares of Class A common stock under the applicable distribution agency agreement by notifying us of such suspension.
We also may sell shares to the sales agent as principal for its own account at a price agreed upon at the time of sale. If we sell shares to the sales agent as principal, we will enter into a separate agreement setting forth the terms of such transaction or such sales may be provided for in the distribution agreement described above.
It is contemplated that the distribution agreements entered into with sales agents will allow such sales agents to make sales in privately negotiated transactions and/or under any other method permitted by law, including sales deemed to be an at-the-market offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act, sales made directly on The Nasdaq Capital Market, the existing trading market for our Class A common stock, or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange. The name of any such underwriter or agent involved in the offer and sale of our Class A common stock, the amounts underwritten, and the nature of its obligations to take our Class A common stock will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
