Management Commentary
"During the first quarter, TeraWulf delivered outstanding results, setting a new benchmark for profitability among publicly traded bitcoin miners," stated Paul Prager, CEO of TeraWulf. "During this period, we also further solidified our financial foundation by reducing debt and augmenting our cash reserves."
1 Includes BTC earned from profit sharing associated with a hosting agreement that expired in February 2024 at the Lake Mariner Facility and TeraWulf's net share of BTC produced at the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility.
2 Values profit share BTC at $53,750 per BTC as opposed to $38,000 per BTC, which was the quoted price of bitcoin in the Company’s principal market at the time of hosting contract inception.
3 Values profit share BTC at $36,300 per BTC as opposed to $38,000 per BTC, which was the quoted price of bitcoin in the Company’s principal market at the time of hosting contract inception.
4 The Company’s share of the earnings or losses of operating results at the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility is reflected within “Equity in net income (loss) of investee, net of tax” in the consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, operating results of the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility are not reflected in revenue, cost of revenue or cost of operations lines in TeraWulf’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses these metrics as indicators of operational progress and effectiveness and believes they are useful to investors for the same purposes and to provide comparisons to peer companies. All figures except Bitcoin Self-Mined are estimates.
5 Includes BTC earned from profit sharing associated with a hosting agreement that expired in February 2024 at the Lake Mariner Facility and TeraWulf’s net share of BTC produced at the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility.
6 Computed as the weighted-average opening price of BTC on each respective day the Self-Mined Bitcoin is earned. Excludes value earned from hosting contract, which expired in February 2024, for which the quoted price of BTC in the Company’s principal market at the time of contract inception was approximately $38,000.
7 The Q1 2024 and Q4 2023 calculations exclude 6 and 13 bitcoin, respectively, earned via hosting profit share.
8 While nameplate inventory for TeraWulf’s two facilities is 8.0 EH/s, inclusive of gross total hosted miners, actual monthly hash rate performance depends on a variety of factors, including (but not limited to) performance tuning to increase efficiency and maximize margin, scheduled outages (scopes to improve reliability or performance), unscheduled outages, curtailment due to participation in various cash generating demand response programs, derate of ASICS due to adverse weather and ASIC maintenance and repair.


"Capital efficiency remains central to our strategic approach. Our focus on sustainable and prudent growth underscores our commitment to maximizing returns on invested capital," Prager emphasized. "We take pride in outperforming our competitors in terms of profit generation per exahash while minimizing shareholder dilution. This quarter's performance underscores our dedication to delivering tangible value.”
"Our extensive 600 megawatts of owned and scalable digital infrastructure capacity form the cornerstone of our competitive edge. This infrastructure uniquely positions us, enabling the leveraging of our industry-leading bitcoin mining as the foundational element for developing an alternative compute hosting business. This move is perfectly aligned with the escalating demand for high-power data center capacity," continued Prager.
"We're actively exploring opportunities with various stakeholders, ranging from hyperscalers to enterprise-level clients, to leverage our more than 300 megawatts of available infrastructure capacity," Prager continued. "With access to low-cost, zero-carbon power, we are well-positioned to meet the escalating demand for sustainable computing solutions. As we near the completion of Building 4 and begin construction on Building 5 at Lake Mariner, we are strategically expanding our bitcoin mining hash rate while concurrently developing a robust high-performance computing offering. This dual-pronged approach positions us favorably to capitalize on emerging opportunities in both markets.”
Production and Operations Update
As of March 31, 2024, TeraWulf had an operational miner fleet consisting of approximately 66,900 of the latest generation miners. This fleet was divided between the Company’s two locations: the wholly owned Lake Mariner Facility in New York and the nuclear-powered Nautilus Cryptomine Facility in Pennsylvania. The Lake Mariner Facility housed 51,100 miners, while the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility had 15,800 self-miners. The total installed hashrate across both sites was 8.0 EH/s, with a total operational capacity of 210 MW.
TeraWulf is currently expanding mining operations at its wholly owned Lake Mariner Facility in New York with the addition of Building 4, which is expected to increase the facility’s bitcoin mining infrastructure capacity from its current 160 MW to 195 MW by mid 2024, which is expected to further increase TeraWulf’s total operational capacity to more than 10.0 EH/s. The Company has also recently initiated construction activities for Building 5 at the Lake Mariner Facility, which is expected to add an incremental 50 MW of bitcoin mining capacity, bringing TeraWulf’s total operational capacity to approximately 300 MW by the first quarter of 2025.
In Pennsylvania, the Company currently has 50 MW of operational mining capacity at the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility, a joint venture with Cumulus Coin, LLC. TeraWulf’s additional 50 MW of expansion capacity at the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility is planned to come online in 2025, accommodating up to 2.5 EH/s of additional operational mining capacity at the site.
As previously announced, the Company is finalizing the design for a large-scale, high-performance computing (HPC) / AI project at the Lake Mariner Facility and has committed an initial 2 MW block of power, capable of deploying thousands of the latest generation graphics processing units (GPUs). The Company has upgraded the internet interconnection at the Lake Mariner Facility to align with bandwidth requirements of AI, designed closed loop liquid cooling, and power supply for 100% redundancy in support of the project.



Miner Purchase Agreements
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company entered into a new miner purchase and option agreement with Bitmain for the purchase of S21 miners. In connection with this agreement, the Company has paid $17.5 million for 5,000 S21 miners, which are expected to be delivered in the second quarter of 2024 and occupy Building 4 at the Lake Mariner Facility. TeraWulf has also made a deposit of $9.6 million towards an additional 30,000 miners with secured pricing of approximately $16.00 per terahash.
First Quarter 2024 GAAP Financial Results
Revenue in the first quarter of 2024 increased 82.2% to $42.4 million as compared to $23.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. This increase is attributable to a significant growth in operating self-mining hashrate as well as a higher average bitcoin price relative to the fourth quarter of 2023. Notably, revenue and expenses reported in the TeraWulf GAAP income statement excludes revenue and expenses from the Nautilus joint venture; the net financial impact of the Nautilus joint venture is captured within equity in net income (loss) of investee, net of tax in the consolidated statements of operations.
Gross profit in the first quarter of 2024 increased 95.3% to $28.0 million compared to $14.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue increased to 66.0% in the first quarter of 2024 compared to 61.6% in the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily driven by a 33.3% increase in average operating hashrate and 48.1% increase in average value per bitcoin self-mined quarter-over-quarter.
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company repaid $33.4 million of debt, followed by an additional $30.2 million repayment in April 2024, collectively reducing the debt balance to $75.8 million. In total, the Company has reduced its debt balance by $70.2 million since the start of the fourth quarter of 2023, with $51.6 million of this repayment funded by cash flow from operations and only $18.6 million from equity proceeds.

Non-GAAP Measure
To provide investors with additional information in connection with our results as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we disclose Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP measure. This measure is not a financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and it should not be considered as a substitute for net income, operating income, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.


We define Adjusted EBITDA as income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted for (i) impacts of interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; (ii) preferred stock dividends, stock-based compensation expense and related party expense to be settled with respect to common stock, all of which are non-cash items that the Company believes are not reflective of its general business performance, and for which the accounting requires management judgment, and the resulting expenses could vary significantly in comparison to other companies; (iii) equity in net income (loss) of investee, net of tax, related to Nautilus; (iv) other income which is related to interest income or income for which management believes is not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operating activities; (v) loss on extinguishment of debt, which is not reflective of the Company’s general business performance; and (vi) loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, which is not be applicable to the Company’s future business activities. The Company’s non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA also includes the impact of distributions from investee received in bitcoin related to a return on the Nautilus investment, which management believes, in conjunction with excluding the impact of equity in net income (loss) of investee, net of tax, is reflective of assets available for the Company’s use in its ongoing operations as a result of its investment in Nautilus.
Management believes that providing this non-GAAP financial measure allows for meaningful comparisons between the Company's core business operating results and those of other companies, and provides the Company with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating its own core business operating results over different periods of time. In addition to management's internal use of non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is also useful to investors and analysts in comparing the Company’s performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis. Management believes the foregoing to be the case even though some of the excluded items involve cash outlays and some of them recur on a regular basis (although management does not believe any of such items are normal operating expenses necessary to generate the Company’s bitcoin related revenues). For example, the Company expects that share-based compensation expense, which is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, will continue to be a significant recurring expense over the coming years and is an important part of the compensation provided to certain employees, officers, directors and consultants. Additionally, management does not consider any of the excluded items to be expenses necessary to generate the Company’s bitcoin related revenue.
The Company's Adjusted EBITDA measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures provided by other companies in the Company’s industry, as other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently. The Company's Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating loss or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. Although management utilizes internally and presents Adjusted EBITDA, the Company only utilizes that measure supplementally and does not consider it to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial results. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be considered in isolation of, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following table is a reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure (i.e., net loss attributable to common stockholders) for the periods indicated (in thousands):
