Digihost Announces 60% Month-Over-Month Increase in Cash and Crypto Position and Provides March 2024 Production Update
01 Abril 2024 - 5:00AM
Digihost Technology Inc. (“
Digihost” or the
“
Company”) (Nasdaq: DGHI; TSXV: DGHI), an
innovative U.S. based blockchain technology and computer
infrastructure company, is pleased to provide unaudited comparative
Bitcoin (“
BTC”) production results for the month
ended March 31, 2024, combined with an operations update. All
monetary references are expressed in USD unless otherwise
indicated.
Monthly Production Highlights for March
2024
- The Company held cash, BTC and cash
deposits of approximately $6.2 million as of March 31, 2024 (based
on a BTC price of $71,200 as of March 31, 2024 per CoinMarketCap),
as compared to $3.9 million as of January 31, 2024 (based on a BTC
price of $61,198 as of February 29, 2024 per CoinMarketCap),
representing an increase over the previous month of approximately
60%.
- The increase in the Company’s
ending cash, BTC, and cash deposits position over the previous
month is partially due to the execution of a multi-year hosting
agreement with one of the world’s leading manufacturers of digital
currency mining servers that it announced on March 5, 2024. Under
the executed agreement, Digihost received an upfront deposit along
with 4,640 S19 XPs (21.5W/TH), which equates to approximately 14MW
of hosting. The Company plans to deploy these next generation,
highly energy efficient and high-performance miners prior to the
next Bitcoin halving. The deployment will result in an expected
hash rate increase of approximately 700 PH/s, bringing Digihost’s
total hash rate to 2.4 EH/s.
- Mined approximately 91 BTC during
the month of March, representing a decrease of Daily BTC mined
during the month decrease of 2% compared to February 2024, as
overall BTC difficulty increased by approximately 5% during the
month due to the continued rise in prices of certain
cryptocurrencies during the month of March. Despite the increase in
mining difficulty, the Company’s ending BTC position increased over
the previous month by approximately $1.4 million.
- During the period, the Company paid
off in the full the remaining balance owed on a BTC loan
payable.
- Spent approximately $0.2 million on
capital expenditures and mining infrastructure support equipment.
Digihost continues to monitor its capital expenditures closely with
self-funding to limit equity dilution for its shareholders.
- Consistent with management’s
ongoing commitment to minimize equity dilution for its
shareholders, the Company has continued to monetize a portion of
its BTC production to fully fund its energy costs.
Operations Update
Presently, Digihost’s consolidated operating
capacity across its three sites represents approximately 90MW of
available power and is mining at hashrate of 2 EH/s.
