Our current ratio remains strong at 2.19 as of June 30, 2022. - Outstanding debt decreased by
$1.9 million to$11.8 million at June 30, 2022, down from$13.7 at December 31, 2021, with total liabilities also decreasing by$1.2 million during the period. - Total stockholders’ equity increased during the period by
$1.8 million to$30.8 million , while shares issued and outstanding decreased by 262.9 million to 2,641.3 million at period end.

Despite the lower price of Bitcoin, increase in the difficulties encountered within the Bitcoin mining space, decline in NDAU sales and higher short-term legal expenses, we have continued to make progress within certain key elements of our operating model. While revenue growth and profitability remain significant short-term priorities, we are pleased at our ability to expand our Bitcoin mining capacity, a development that we anticipate will enhance our long-term growth model. We will continue to seek opportunities to diversify our mix of products and services, expand our operating margins and augment the human capital necessary to execute those priorities.”

We continue to manage our balance sheet by investing in new next-generation equipment, paying down debt and repurchasing our common stock, while maintaining a strong liquid cash position.”
