HONG KONG, Feb. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- BIT Mining Limited (NYSE: BTCM) ("BIT Mining," "the Company," "we," "us," or "our company"), a leading technology-driven cryptocurrency mining company, today reported its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021.

Cryptocurrency Business Progress

BIT Mining has completed the transition of its business to an enterprise that covers cryptocurrency mining, data center operation and mining pool. The Company has adopted a development strategy to focus on cryptocurrency mining operations globally.

As of today, the theoretical maximum total hash rate capacity of our Ethereum mining machines is approximately 4,800.0 GH/s, of which 4,737.6 GH/s have been deployed. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, we produced 3,957 Ethereum from our Ethereum cryptocurrency mining operations, and recognized revenue of approximately US$16.5 million. As of today, we have produced 7,649 Ethereum in aggregate. 

As of today, the theoretical maximum total hash rate capacity of our Bitcoin mining machines is approximately 825.4 PH/s. As of today, we have completed the migration of all of our Bitcoin mining machines to the U.S. and Kazakhstan. In the U.S., we have Bitcoin mining machines with a total hash rate capacity of 532.7 PH/s, of which 378.5 PH/s have been deployed in data centers and the remainder have been fine-tuned and are waiting to be deployed. In Kazakhstan, we have Bitcoin mining machines with a total hash rate capacity of 292.7 PH/s, of which 135.3 PH/s have been deployed in data centers and the remainder have been fine-tuned and are waiting to be deployed. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, we produced 102 Bitcoins from our Bitcoin cryptocurrency mining operations, and recognized revenue of approximately US$5.6 million. As of today, we have produced 488 Bitcoin in aggregate.

In terms of our data center business, in September 2021 we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement and certain other auxiliary agreements (the "Ohio Mining Site Agreements") with Viking Data Centers, LLC ("Viking Data Centers") to acquire a 51% equity interest  in a cryptocurrency mining data center in Ohio (the "Ohio Mining Site") with power capacity of up to 85 megawatts. In October 2021, we increased our investment in the Ohio Mining Site and brought its total planned power capacity up to 150 megawatts. Upon the successful execution of the increased investment, the Company's equity interest in the Ohio Mining Site increased to 55%, and Viking Data Centers held the remaining 45%. The development of the Ohio Mining Site is expected to be completed in the first half of 2022. As of today, construction of the plant and substation has been completed, with power capacity of 50 megawatts, of which 43 megawatts is in operation. The data center in Hong Kong, with a maximum capacity of approximately 1.4 megawatts, has been operational and mining ETH since October 2021. The Company has terminated its data center construction plan in Kazakhstan, which was announced in May of 2021, due to the unstable local power supply. The Company's Bitcoin mining machines which were deployed in the third-party data centers in Kazakhstan, remain in operation and have not been impacted.

On October 14, 2021, the Company announced that its mining pool subsidiary, BTC.com, would completely exit the China market, cease registering new users from China and start to retire accounts of existing users from China. The Company has been working on solutions with its existing users in China, such as migrating users' mining machines to overseas markets so that they have access to our services in a compliant manner. In addition, price of Bitcoin and Ethereum increased compared to the third quarter, which offset the impact of exiting from China market. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, the mining pool business generated revenue of approximately US$472.9 million, increased from US$386.5 million for the third quarter of 2021.

Termination of the Online Lottery Business in Europe

The Company is in the process of terminating its online lottery business in Europe which was operated under The Multi Group ("TMG"), a subsidiary the Company acquired in July 2017. As of today, TMG has ceased all of its business operations. TMG contributed US$0.3 million, or 0.1%, of the Company's total revenue, and net loss of US$0.4 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Due to the expansion of the Company's cryptocurrency mining business, the Company does not expect the termination of its online lottery business in Europe to have a material impact on its operational results or financial position.

"We are glad to announce our fourth quarter and full year 2021 financial results, as we continue to execute on our strategy to create value within the cryptocurrency ecosystem," said Mr. Xianfeng Yang, CEO of BIT Mining. "Over the past year, we completed the migration of our mining machines to new mining sites in North America and Central Asia. We also made significant progress in the construction of our U.S. based data centres, which now provide critical operational efficiencies for our business. Additionally, anticipating Ethereum's potential to play a pivotal role in the decentralization and tokenization that are driving internet technology innovation, we deployed significant Ethereum computing power in 2021. These deployments have generated positive returns, illustrating our team's ability to spot industry trends and deploy capital profitably. Looking forward, we plan to continue to enhance our value proposition and further strengthen our mining technology."
