BITF Bitfarms Ltd

Bitfarms Ltd. (NASDAQ/ TSX: BITF), a global vertically integrated Bitcoin mining company, provides its monthly production report and update on its fleet upgrade and expansion. All financial references are in U.S. dollars.

“We continue to make progress on our fleet upgrades and new facility constructions, having installed over 39,000 new miners and deracked over 39,000 old miners so far this year. We exited the month with 11.4 EH/s installed, 10.4 EH/s operational and 25 w/TH efficiency,” said Ben Gagnon, Chief Mining Officer. “Upgrades at all of our Quebec facilities are now complete and have significantly expanded our hashrate and improved our energy efficiency and gross mining margins across our portfolio.”

“In Paraguay, our Paso Pe facility was energized with 4 of 5 warehouses and 6 of 8 hydro containers fully operational, contributing 2.5 EH/s with the remaining 0.6 EH/s to be energized in July. Severe weather in June, impacting both logistics and operations, contributed to moderate delays and temporary underperformance of miners.”

Executing on our strategy to cost-effectively expand our U.S. operating footprint, Bitfarms entered into a new agreement to develop a 120 MW site in Sharon, Pennsylvania. Situated strategically within the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Interconnection (PJM), the largest wholesale electricity market in the U.S., and in a deregulated state, this site offers access to competitively priced electricity supply with opportunities to participate in demand response and curtailment programs, positioning Bitfarms to improve its corporate electricity price. The site is well suited for high intensity computing beyond Bitcoin mining, including HPC (high performance computing) and AI (artificial intelligence) services.

Phillippe Fortier, SVP of Corporate Development, stated, “We are confident that Sharon’s operations in the PJM grid will provide long-term access to low-cost U.S. energy and flexible power trading options in addition to revenue diversification opportunities. Importantly, PJM’s rapid replacement of coal powered plants is among the largest contributors to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S., rendering the opportunity both environmentally and economically sustainable. Given these significant advantages, we are actively engaged in assessing several opportunities to expand our presence within the attractive PJM region.”

“Leveraging our operational excellence and data center design expertise, we’re poised to optimize this site and drive accretive growth,” said Jeff Lucas, Chief Financial Officer. “This brings our 2025 power capacity target to 648 MW, representing 109% growth from current capacity. With the Sharon site’s ability to support 8 EH/s, alongside our recent acquisition of an additional 100 MW in Paraguay, we are initiating 2025 guidance of over 35 EH/s. As additional opportunities in our pipeline come to fruition, we will update both our contracted power capacity and our 2025 EH/s target. We remain committed to pursuing similar strategic ventures aimed at delivering significant value to our shareholders.”

Mining Review

In June, the Paso Pe 70 MW substation was successfully energized, making it the Company’s largest active facility by both hashrate and energy capacity. Shipping delays on miners into Paraguay have resulted in a temporary delay in installing 600 PH/s. These miners are now scheduled to be received, installed and energized in July.

June mining operations generated 189 BTC compared to 156 BTC in May as a result of increasing corporate hashrate during the month. Additionally, curtailment in Argentina and downtime associated with upgrading miners in Quebec reduced total production which was partially offset by a 0.8% decrease in network difficulty compared to May.
