HIVE Announces Quarterly Revenue of $32.2 Million, Adjusted EBITDA of $14.9 Million with an Increase in Bitcoin Holdings to 2,496 Bitcoin, 449 Bitcoin Mined and HPC Expansion
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 13, 2024) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (the "Company" or "HIVE") announces its results for the first quarter ended June 30, 2024 (all amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated).
Revenue from digital currency mining was $29.6 million this quarter from mining rewards of 449 Bitcoin, in addition to $2.6 million from the Company's high-performance computing (HPC) hosting operations, resulting in a gross operating margin1 of $11.4 million, or a 35% operating margin. The Company's SG&A for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, was $3.4 million, resulting in a positive corporate margin2 on a cash basis of $8.0 million. HIVE achieved an Adjusted EBITDA1 of $14.9 million for the quarter and net income of $4.2 million before tax.
The Company grew its Bitcoin mining ASIC hashrate by 4% this quarter, from 4.7 Exahash in March 2024 to 4.9 Exahash in June 2024. HIVE ended the period with 2,496 Bitcoin on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2024, valued at $153.9 million. The Company notes that these Bitcoin are unencumbered, unleveraged and were all mined through HIVE's green energy focused operations.
HIVE's production of 449 Bitcoin this quarter compared to 658 Bitcoin in the prior quarter ended March 31, 2024, is mainly a result of the Bitcoin Halving that occurs every four years with the most recent Halving on April 20, 2024. The Halving reduced the Company's block rewards from 6.25 Bitcoin to 3.125 Bitcoin during the period. The Company prepared for this Halving by upgrading its ASIC miners in the months leading up to and after the Halving, contributing to the positive results for this recent quarter reported.
Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman of HIVE, emphasized, "Our strategy to only source mega chunks of green energy has been a big challenge for rapid growth, but our expansion into Paraguay sourcing 100 MW will more than double our Bitcoin footprint over the next 12 months. Even though we operate in many countries, we have demonstrated a unique ability to keep our operations among the top performers in financial metrics. We believe there is too much political FUD risk to be in one jurisdiction, and despite being a global company, we remain a consistent top performer when measured using various efficiency data metrics. Further, as a Bitcoin mining company, we are consistently among the lowest G&A to mine a Bitcoin and least shareholder dilution per share when compared to peers with over 1 Exahash. I am thrilled that over the past 12 months, even with the difficulty rising to mine Bitcoin and the recent Halving, we made more cash flow than last year."
Aydin Kilic, President & CEO, stated, "We are proud to have navigated our second Bitcoin Halving event as a Company, with strategic foresight, producing a gross operating margin1 of $11.4 million this quarter. This comes as a result of our Bitcoin Halving strategy where we procured 7,000 Bitmain S21 AntMiners and 2,500 Bitmain S21 Pro AntMiners, to increase our installed hashrate to 5.5 EH/s with a global fleet efficiency of 24.5 J/TH. Our foresight in navigating this Halving, focusing on upgrading our existing fleet, and being conservative with expansions, comes from years of experience in the crypto-mining sector, with some of our key staff having navigated their 3rd and even 4th Bitcoin Halving events. With an installed hashrate of 5.5 EH/s, we are currently realizing an operational hashrate of 5.2 EH/s, as a result of strategic downclocking of 30 J/TH ASICs to improve overall profitability."
The Company has identified 30 MW of capacity in its existing Bitcoin mining facilities which it owns and operates, which it is planning to convert to Tier 3 infrastructure for GPU operation, to yield 20 MW of Tier 3 compute. The Company believes these upgrades could be completed in 6-9 months from construction commencement, as power distribution and internet redundancy are in place. The Company believes the value proposition of conversion of existing Bitcoin mining capacity to Tier 3 data center rack space is twofold: a quicker construction timeline of 6-9 months for a retrofit versus a 24-36 month construction timeline for a greenfield, and a construction budget of approximately $5 million to $7 million per MW for a retrofit versus $10 million to $12 million per MW for a new build.
Q1 F2025 Summary - June 30, 2024
- Generated digital currency mining revenue of $29.6 million and $2.6 Million of HPC revenue, with a gross operating margin1 of $11.4 million
- Ending the quarter with over $10 Million of annualized run-rate revenue from our HPC business
- Mined 449 Bitcoin during the three-month period ended June 30, 2024
- Adjusted EBITDA1 income of $14.9 million for the three-month period
- Reported a net income before tax of $4.2 million for the quarter
- Working capital increased by $14.2 million during three-month period ended June 30, 2024
- Digital currency assets of $153.9 million, as of June 30, 2024
Fiscal 2024 Financial Review
For the three-month period ended June 30, 2024, revenue was $32.2 million, an increase of approximately 37% from the prior comparative period primarily due to the increase in Bitcoin price and includes $2.6 million of revenue from our HPC business segment.
Gross operating margin1 during the three-month period was $11.4 million, or 35% of revenue, compared
to $8.0 million, or 34% of revenue, in the same period in the prior year. Gross operating margin1 is directly impacted by digital currency prices and network difficulties as this impacts revenue from mining
operations. The Company's gross operating margin1 is partially dependent on external network factors including mining difficulty, the amount of digital currency rewards and fees it receives for mining, as well as the market price of digital currencies.
The Company achieved a net income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024, of $3.3 million, or $0.03 basic income per share, compared to a net loss of $16.3 million, or $0.19 basic loss per share, in the prior comparative period.
EBITDA1 and Adjusted EBITDA1
The Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a metric that is useful for assessing its operating performance on a cash basis before the impact of non-cash items and acquisition related activities.
EBITDA is net income or loss from operations, as reported in profit and loss, before finance income and expense, tax and depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for removing other non-cash items, including share-based compensation, non-cash effect of the revaluation of digital currencies and one-time transactions.
The Company emphasizes that "Adjusted EBITDA" is not a GAAP or IFRS measurement and is included only for comparative purposes.
Non-Cash Charges
A non-cash charge is a write-down or accounting expense that does not involve a cash payment. Depreciation, amortization, depletion, stock-based compensation, and asset impairments are common non-cash charges that reduce earnings but not cash flows.
Financial Statements and MD&A
The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) thereon for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 will be accessible on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca under HIVE's profile and on the Company's website at www.HIVEdigitaltechnologies.com.
At-the-Market Offering
On August 17, 2023, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement ("August 2023 Equity Distribution Agreement") with Stifel GMP and Canaccord Genuity Corp. Under the August 2023 Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company was able to sell up to $90 million of common shares in the capital of the Company (the "August 2023 ATM Equity Program").
For the three month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 11,166,160 common shares (the "August 2023 ATM Shares") pursuant to the August 2023 ATM Equity Program for gross proceeds of C$45.0 million ($32.9 million). The August 2023 ATM Shares were sold at prevailing market prices, for an average price per August 2023 ATM Share of C$4.03. Pursuant to the August 2023 Equity Distribution Agreement, a cash commission of $1.0 million on the aggregate gross proceeds raised was paid to the agent in connection with its services under the August 2023 Equity Distribution Agreement.
The Company is using the net proceeds from the August 2023 Equity Distribution Agreement for the purchase of data center equipment, strategic investments including building BTC assets on our balance sheet and general working capital. The August 2023 Equity Distribution Agreement was terminated on July 19, 2024.

HIVE Digital Technologies Announces August 2024 Production of 112 Bitcoin and 1% HODL Growth to 2,533 Bitcoins and Acquires 1,000 Bitmain S21 Pro for Immediate Delivery
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 5, 2024) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (the "Company" or "HIVE") a pioneer in green energy-powered blockchain infrastructure, is pleased to announce its unaudited production results for August 2024. The Company successfully mined 112 Bitcoin, boosting its total Bitcoin holdings by 1%, bringing the balance to 2,533 BTC. HIVE also announced the acquisition of 1,000 Bitmain S21 Pro Antminers for immediate delivery to upgrade its existing suite of machines, enhancing overall mining efficiency and capacity. HIVE maintained an impressive average Bitcoin mining capacity of over 5.0 Exahash per second ("EH/s") throughout the month, all while continuing its commitment to green energy by primarily sourcing hydroelectricity to power its data centers (all amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated).
August 2024 Highlights:
-
Production: Mined 112 Bitcoin in August 2024.
-
Mining Capacity Maintained: Concluded the month with a 5.3 EH/s ASIC mining capacity, achieving a blended fleet efficiency of 23 joules per terahash ("J/TH").
-
HODL Position: Increased Bitcoin holdings to 2,533 BTC, reflecting a 1% growth from the previous month.
-
Mining Efficiency: Averaged 22.4 Bitcoin per Exahash, ending August with a 5.3 EH/s capacity and a consistent average hashrate of 5.0 EH/s.
-
Daily Production: Averaged 3.6 BTC per day, highlighting operational efficiency and robust mining capabilities.
Strategic HODL Increase:
HIVE emphasizes that with a Bitcoin HODL value exceeding $164 million as of August 31, 2024, the Company's enterprise value remains compelling compared to industry peers.
Executive Insights:
Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman, commented, "We remain focused on our strategy of maintaining the lowest G&A expenses per Bitcoin mined, maximizing cash flow return on invested capital, and achieving high revenue per employee while minimizing share dilution. Our disciplined approach, supported by a global team operating across nine time zones, positions HIVE as one of the leanest Bitcoin mining operations with an attractive EV to EBITDA multiple, holding over 2,500 clean and green Bitcoin on our balance sheet."
Aydin Kilic, President and CEO added, "Over the past month, we have optimized our fleet's performance, achieving an average hashrate of approximately 5.2 EH/s by fine-tuning the firmware of our 30 J/TH machines, improving their efficiency to 27-28 J/TH. This has led to a global fleet efficiency of approximately 23 J/TH. We plan to continue this optimization over the next nine months, upgrading our remaining 30 J/TH ASICs. This will increase our installed hashrate at existing facilities to 6.9 EH/s with a blended fleet efficiency of 19 TH/s."
He further noted, "To support this strategy, we have acquired 1,000 Bitmain S21 Pro Antminers for immediate delivery to upgrade our existing suite of equipment. Additionally, we have purchased 300 Bitmain S19 XP miners to fully utilize available rack space at our Lachute facility. These machines were purchased and installed in August."
With this monthly rolling upgrade strategy, HIVE's updated target hashrate is projected to reach 13.5 EH/s, with a global blended fleet efficiency of 16.9 J/TH upon the completion of the Paraguay facility. This will be achieved while maintaining our green energy strategy, which prioritizes the use of hydroelectricity to power our data centers.

HIVE is a growth-oriented technology stock in the emergent blockchain industry. As a company whose shares trade on a major stock exchange, we are building a bridge between the digital currency and blockchain sector and traditional capital markets. HIVE owns and operates state-of-the-art, green energy-powered data centre facilities in Canada, Sweden, and Iceland, where we endeavour to source green energy to mine digital assets such as Bitcoin on the cloud. Since the beginning of 2021, HIVE has held in secure storage the majority of its treasury of BTC derived from mining rewards. Our shares provide investors with exposure to the operating margins of digital currency mining, as well as a portfolio of Bitcoin. Because HIVE also owns hard assets such as data centers and advanced multi-use servers, we believe our shares offer investors an attractive way to gain exposure to the cryptocurrency space.
Environmental Sustainability:
-
Green Energy: By sourcing green renewable energy, HIVE is committed to environmental responsibility, positioning itself as a leader in sustainable cryptocurrency mining.
-
Competitive Advantage: We believe this environmentally conscious approach sets HIVE apart from competitors and aligns with evolving investor preferences.
Expansion into AI Strategy:
-
Diversification: HIVE's diversification into HPC enables us to support artificial intelligence (AI) using Nvidia GPU chips, showcasing our adaptability and innovation beyond traditional Bitcoin mining.
-
Revenue Streams: This strategic move into HPC broadens HIVE's revenue streams and places it at the forefront of technological advancements in both cryptocurrency and AI industries.
HIVE's unique value proposition encompasses efficient operations, a proven agile management team, financial strength, environmental sustainability, and innovative expansion strategies. Beyond Bitcoin mining, HIVE is firmly part of the global boom in data center infrastructure, sourcing primarily green renewable energy.
HIVE presents a unique growth opportunity with over 2,500 Bitcoins on its balance sheet and growing revenue from its suite of Nvidia GPU chips powering data services for the AI revolution.

CORRECTION FROM SOURCE: HIVE Digital Technologies Announces August 2024 Production of 112 Bitcoin and 1% HODL Growth to 2,567 Bitcoins and Acquires 1,000 Bitmain S21 Pro for Immediate Delivery
A correction from source has been issued for the HIVE Digital Technologies news release that was disseminated today at 1:00am EDT. The previously stated amount of Bitcoin HODL held at August 31, 2024 was incorrect. The accurate figure is 2,567 Bitcoins, not 2,533 Bitcoins. This correction does not change anything else in the news release. The corrected release follows:
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 5, 2024) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YOO) (the "Company'' or "HIVE") a pioneer in green energy powered blockchain infrastructure, is pleased to announce its unaudited production results for August 2024. The Company successfully mined 112 Bitcoin, boosting its total Bitcoin holdings by 1%, bringing the balance to 2,567 BTC. HIVE also announced the acquisition of 1,000 Bitmain S21 Pro Antminers for immediate delivery to upgrade its existing suite of machines, enhancing overall mining efficiency and capacity. HIVE maintained an impressive average Bitcoin mining capacity of over 5.0 Exahash per second ("EH/s") throughout the month, all while continuing its commitment to green energy by primarily sourcing hydroelectricity to power its data centers (a// amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated).
August 2024 Highlights:
• Production: Mined 112 Bitcoin in August 2024.
• Mining Capacity Maintained: Concluded the month with a 5.3 EH/s ASIC mining capacity, achieving a blended fleet efficiency of 23 joules per terahash ("J/TH").
• HODL Position: Increased Bitcoin holdings to 2,567 BTC, reflecting a 1% growth from the previous month.
• Mining Efficiency: Averaged 22.4 Bitcoin per Exahash, ending August with a 5.3 EH/s capacity and a consistent average hashrate of 5.0 EH/s.
• Daily Production: Averaged 3.6 BTC per day, highlighting operational efficiency and robust mining capabilities.
Strategic HODL Increase:
HIVE emphasizes that with a Bitcoin HODL value exceeding $164 million as of August 31, 2024, the Company's enterprise value remains compelling compared to industry peers.
Executive Insights:
Frank Holmes, Executive Chairman, commented, "We remain focused on our strategy of maintaining the lowest G&A expenses per Bitcoin mined, maximizing cash flow return on invested capital, and achieving high revenue per employee while minimizing share dilution. Our disciplined approach, supported by a global team operating across nine time zones, positions HIVE as one of the leanest Bitcoin mining operations with an attractive EV to EBITDA multiple, holding over 2,500 clean and green Bitcoin on our balance sheet."
Aydin Kilic, President and CEO added, "Over the past month, we have optimized our fleet's 30 J/TH machines, improving their efficiency to 27-28 J/TH. This has led to a global fleet efficiency of approximately 23 J/TH. We plan to continue this optimization over the next nine months, upgrading our remaining 30 J/TH ASICs. This will increase our installed hashrate at existing facilities to 6.9 EH/s with a blended fleet efficiency of 19 TH/s."
He further noted, "To support this strategy, we have acquired 1,000 Bitmain S21 Pro Antminers for immediate delivery to upgrade our existing suite of equipment. Additionally, we have purchased 300 Bitmain S19 XP miners to fully utilize available rack space at our Lachute facility. These machines were purchased and installed in August."
With this monthly rolling upgrade strategy, HIVE's updated target hashrate is projected to reach 13.5 EH/s, with a global blended fleet efficiency of 16.9 J/TH upon the completion of the Paraguay facility. This will be achieved while maintaining our green energy strategy, which prioritizes the use of hydroelectricity to power our data centers.
