HPC Focus. Management is placing greater emphasis on the HPC segment given the near-term potential of the business, its higher margin profile, and growing pipeline of opportunity. Management continues to believe the business could obtain a $100 million annualized revenue run rate by the end of 2024.

Realization of Pipeline. The Company is adding staff in its HPC segment, including a head of sales, to realize more of the Company’s growing pipeline in the segment. It has already come to fruition with the Boosteroid agreement announcement and management noted that other potential clients are not far behind. We expect the addition of more salespeople in the near term and won’t be surprised to see more agreement announcements sooner rather than later.

Research News and Market Data on BTBT

NEW YORK, August 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bit Digital, Inc. (Nasdaq: BTBT) (the “Company”), a sustainable platform for digital assets and artificial intelligence (“AI”) infrastructure headquartered in New York City, today announced its unaudited financial results for the Second Quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Financial Highlights for the Second Quarter of 2024

• Total revenue was $29.0 million for the Second Quarter of 2024, a 220% increase compared to the Second Quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by the commencement of our high performance computing services (“HPC”) business and by a higher realized bitcoin price.
• Revenue from bitcoin mining was $16.1 million for the Second Quarter of 2024, an 80% increase compared to the prior year’s quarter. The Company’s HPC recognized $12.5 million of revenue during the quarter compared to nil the prior year.
• The Company had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $61.4 million, and total liquidity (defined as cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, USDC, and the fair market value of digital assets) of approximately $191.9 million¹, as of June 30, 2024.
• Total assets were $315.5 million and Shareholders’ Equity amounted to $295.3 million as of June 30, 2024.
• Adjusted EBITDA² was $(3.8) million for the Second Quarter of 2024 compared to $1.9 million for the Second Quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA includes an $11.5 million unrealized loss on digital assets.
• GAAP loss per share was $0.09 on a fully diluted basis for the Second Quarter of 2024 compared to a loss per share of $0.03 for the Second Quarter of 2023.

Operational Highlights for the Second Quarter 2024

• The Company earned 244.2 bitcoins during the Second Quarter of 2024, a 23% decrease from the prior year. The decline was primarily driven by a reduction in block rewards following the halving event in April 2024 and by an increase in network difficulty.
• The Company paid approximately $0.047 per kilowatt hour to its hosting partners for electricity consumed during the Second Quarter of 2024.
• The average fleet efficiency for the active fleet was approximately 27.9 J/TH as of June 30, 2024.
• The Company earned 109.4 ETH from native staking in the Second Quarter of 2024.
• Treasury holdings of BTC and ETH were 585.6 and 27,226.2³, respectively, with a fair market value of approximately $36.7 million and $93.5 million on June 30, 2024, respectively.
• The BTC equivalent⁴ of our digital asset holdings as of June 30, 2024 (defined as if all ETH and USDC holdings were converted into BTC as of that date) was approximately 2,082.1 BTC⁵, or approximately $130.5 million.
• As of June 30, 2024, we had 50,044 miners owned or operating (in Iceland) for bitcoin mining with a total maximum hash rate of 4.3 EH/s.
• The Company’s active hash rate of its bitcoin mining fleet was approximately 2.6 EH/s as of June 30, 2024.
• The Company purchased approximately 1,146 bitcoin mining units during the Second Quarter of 2024.
• Approximately 86% of our fleet’s run-rate electricity consumption was generated from carbon-free energy sources as of June 30, 2024. These figures are based on data provided by our hosts, publicly available sources, and internal estimates, demonstrating our commitment to sustainable practices in the digital asset mining industry.
• The Company had approximately 17,184 ETH actively staked in native staking protocols as of June 30, 2024.
• In the second quarter of 2024, the Company finalized an agreement to supply its existing customer with an additional 2,048 GPUs over a three-year period. To help finance this operation, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback agreement with a third party, agreeing to sell 128 AI servers (equivalent to 1,024 GPUs) and lease them back for three years. In late July, at behest of the customer, the Company and the customer mutually agreed to temporarily delay the purchase order so that the customer could evaluate potentially upgrading the purchase order to include newer generation Nvidia GPUs. Accordingly, the Company and manufacturer mutually agreed to delay the Company’s purchase pending the contractual outcome with the Company’s customer. The Company expects to provide additional details about the revised deployment timeline in the coming weeks. The Company’s contract with the customer remains fully in effect, but may have to be amended to provide for newer generation GPUs. In early August, the Company received $30.0 million as a non-refundable prepayment from its customer, half of which will be distributed to the Company’s leasing partner.

Subsequent Events

On August 19, 2024, Bit Digital announced that it had signed a binding term sheet with Boosteroid Inc. (“Boosteroid”), the world’s third-largest cloud gaming provider. Upon signing a master service agreement (“MSA”), Boosteroid will place an initial purchase for a starting quantity of GPU servers with a five-year service duration. Bit Digital will provide Boosteroid with options to draw down additional servers in multiples of 100, up to a total of 50,000 GPU servers within five years after signing the MSA, depending on their deployment plans and subject to market conditions. The entire 50,000 GPU deployment represents an aggregate revenue opportunity to Bit Digital in excess of $700 million over the five-year term. The initial purchase includes GPU-servers based on AMD EPYC 4th Gen CPUs and RX7900XT GPUs, customized by ASUSTeK Computer Inc. (“ASUS”) and AMD for Boosteroid. Deployment is planned across a network of more than 10 data centers in the U.S. and Europe. The initial deployment is scheduled to begin over the next two to three months and is expected to generate approximately $13 million in revenue to Bit Digital over the five-year term, or approximately $2.6 million per year. Bit Digital’s entry into a MSA is conditioned upon further diligence of Boosteroid, customary legal and business reviews, internal approvals, and execution of an acceptable MSA.

Management Commentary

“The second quarter of 2024 was an important step in the evolution of Bit Digital. Despite the reduction in block rewards from the April ‘halving event’, our total revenue more than doubled from the prior year, principally aided by the first full quarter of revenue from our HPC services business. Our balance sheet remains a key strength that will enable us to withstand recent market volatility and deploy growth capital into high-return opportunities.

Mining economics remain challenging, and in the absence of a material improvement in expected payback periods for mining equipment, it is unlikely that we will reach our active hash rate target of 6.0 EH/s by year-end 2024. From the onset of the year, we have been cautious in terms of exahash growth, preferring to wait for the post-halving mining environment before enacting material growth. In the interim, we will focus on high grading our existing fleet while reserving the right to make opportunistic growth purchases should the returns profile justify the expenditure.

We continue to view the HPC business as the most attractive use of incremental growth capex in the current environment. Our pipeline remains strong and the main bottleneck to date has been a lack of personnel and man hours to bring contracts to the finish line. We have started to solve this issue, making our first key hire for this business earlier this month with a plan to further expand our personnel and improve our tech stack. Our growth pipeline remains strong, and we continue to believe we will be able to reach our $100 million annualized revenue target by year-end 2024 even if the 2,000 GPU expansion deployment with our existing customer is pushed into 2025.”

Results. Revenue for the quarter totaled $29.0 million, a 220% increase from last year of $9.0 million due to the inclusion of the HPC business. We estimated revenue of $24.9 million. Driven by an $11.5 million unrealized loss on digital assets, adjusted EBITDA was a negative $3.8 million from a positive $1.9 million last year. Net loss for the quarter was $12.0 million, or $0.09/sh, from a loss of $2.4 million, or $0.03/sh, the prior year.

A Temporary Setback. The Company’s anchor HPC client is temporarily delaying its purchase order to potentially upgrade the servers to have newer generation Nvidia GPUs. The contract may be amended to provide for the newer GPUs.

Investor Notice 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and forward-looking statements described under “Risk Factors” in Item 3.D of our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. If any material risk was to occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In that event, the value of our securities could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment. The risks and uncertainties we describe are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. In addition, our past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results in the future. Future changes in the network-wide mining difficulty rate or bitcoin hash rate may also materially affect the future performance of Bit Digital’s production of bitcoin. Actual operating results will vary depending on many factors including network difficulty rate, total hash rate of the network, the operations of our facilities, the status of our miners, and other factors.
