Insights

HIVE's August performance shows steady progress in Bitcoin mining. The company mined 112 BTC, growing their HODL position by 1% to 2,533 BTC. With Bitcoin's current value, this represents a substantial $164 million asset. The acquisition of 1,000 Bitmain S21 Pro Antminers signals a strategic move to enhance mining efficiency.

The company's focus on maintaining low G&A expenses per Bitcoin mined and maximizing cash flow return on invested capital is commendable. Their average of 3.6 BTC mined daily with a 5.3 EH/s capacity demonstrates operational efficiency. The planned upgrade to reach 13.5 EH/s with improved efficiency could significantly boost production capacity and potentially increase revenues.

HIVE's tech strategy is impressive. They've optimized their 30 J/TH machines to 27-28 J/TH, improving overall fleet efficiency to 23 J/TH. The acquisition of S21 Pro and S19 XP miners shows a commitment to cutting-edge technology. Their goal of reaching 13.5 EH/s with a 16.9 J/TH global blended fleet efficiency is ambitious but achievable.

The focus on green energy, particularly hydroelectricity, aligns with growing environmental concerns in the crypto mining sector. This eco-friendly approach could provide a competitive edge and potentially attract environmentally conscious investors. The planned upgrades over the next nine months could position HIVE as a technological leader in the Bitcoin mining space.

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.
