Operational Updates

Mawson’s two sites in Pennsylvania, located in Midland, Pennsylvania and Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, have approximately 109 MW of total power capacity. In August, the Midland facility had a power capacity of approximately 100 MW with capacity to support a total of approximately 30,000 miners for either self-mining or co-location and hosting services. As of the end of August, the Company had approximately 50 MW and approximately 13,150 miners hashing for self-mining purposes and currently expects this number of miners to increase in Q4 2023.   

As previously announced, the co-location agreement with company’s hosting customer ended on August 23, and the Company ceased operating the customer’s miners. The Company currently has approximately 50 MW of capacity that could be offered for co-location and hosting services, and the Company is seeing interest from several potential new co-location and hosting customers.

At the end of August, the Bellefonte facility, which is used entirely for self-mining purposes, was operating approximately 8.8 MW of capacity with approximately 2,460 miners hashing for self-mining.  The Company has been ramping up this facility with a focus to enhance overall operating performance.

During the month of August, Mawson focused on improving its self-mining business operating performance and miner uptime at its facilities, which is expected to continue to enhance its self-mining operations going forward.

Statements about hashrate capacity

Statements in the press release about hashrate capacity (including ‘installed capacity’ or ‘nameplate capacity’), will often differ from the actual or observed hashrate. These terms generally make certain assumptions about the efficiency of the ASIC miners that are in use. Some ASIC miner models will consume less power to create the same amount of hashing power than other ASIC miner models (typically more recent models are more efficient). Many ASIC miner fleets are blended fleets, including various ASIC miner models each with different efficiency ratings. Hashrate capacity figures typically assume 100% deployment of ASIC miners. Given the large numbers of computing units (often numbering in the tens of thousands), ASIC mining fleets are rarely 100% deployed and online at any one time. This can be due to a variety of factors, including ASIC miners being under maintenance, in repair workshops, in storage, in transit, or due to technical faults and breakdowns. Once deployed and online, the actual or observed hashrate can be influenced by other factors such as heat, overclocking (causing the ASIC miner to perform at levels higher than the manufacturer’s specifications), the age, and wear and tear exhibited by the ASIC miners and also by the limitations of the surrounding infrastructure, such as power outages, and MDC and transformer breakdowns. Construction and development delays are a common risk for mining data centers, for example due to weather, permitting delays, or labor and equipment shortages. Investors should consider all risk factors related to uptime when considering these figures, which are a best-case scenario.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Mawson cautions that statements in this press release that are not a description of historical fact are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
