On September 21, 2026, MARA's subsidiary Volt Texas LLC amended its July 2, 2026 agreement to acquire MAT 1177 LLC, which holds land rights and a site for a planned data center project in Texas. The amendment requires a $100.0 million security deposit to the Electric Utility Company, which Buyer may withdraw at its discretion subject to a sale process, and restructures milestone payments while keeping the aggregate purchase price at $600 million if all milestones are achieved. The filing also replaces the provision allowing the membership interests to be returned to the seller with a process to market the project for sale to a third party, with the seller holding a right of first offer.

Fathom Holdings and Neighborhood Intelligence (NXH) said on September 24, 2026, that they agreed to explore an alternative transaction in place of the merger agreement signed June 16, 2026. Under the proposal, NXH would contribute digital assets, led by its stake in tZERO, in exchange for newly issued Fathom shares, and would keep a controlling interest in Fathom. For shareholders, the original share exchange would be replaced by a deal that could change Fathom's ownership and control, and the companies say there is no assurance it will be completed.
The Original Merger Agreement, dated June 16, 2026, would be terminated once definitive documents are signed.
NXH's digital assets would be ascribed no less than $130 million in value, driven mainly by its approximately 38.8% direct and indirect stake in tZERO, subject to Fathom's validation.
NXH expects to keep a controlling interest in Fathom, and the final share count will be set in definitive agreements.
The deal remains subject to definitive agreements, Fathom and NXH board and Fathom stockholder approvals, an independent fairness opinion, and regulatory approvals.
Briefs are written by AI from the filing text and can contain mistakes — open the filing before acting on anything. Impact (1-5) and tone are the AI's reading of the filing for shareholders, not a price forecast. Not investment advice.
Briefs marked “Written later” were written in November 2026 for filings that were by then more than three weeks old, so months before mid-October 2026 hold a selection: every material 8-K of the past year for the 100 largest companies we cover and the last 15 important 8-Ks of every other one. Briefs the number check holds back are not shown or counted. Also: the last 45 days, briefs by company, A–Z and the live SEC filings wire.
