Argo Blockchain plc
("Argo" or "the Company")
October Update
Argo Blockchain plc, a global leader in cryptocurrency mining
(LSE: ARB; NASDAQ: ARBK), provides the following announcement
regarding certain strategic actions that were announced on 7
October 2022.
As previously disclosed, the Company signed a non-binding LOI
with a strategic investor to raise approximately GBP24 million ($27
million) via a subscription for ordinary shares. The Company no
longer believes that this subscription will be consummated under
the previously announced terms. Argo is continuing to explore other
financing opportunities.
The Company has also taken steps to further maximize liquidity
and preserve cash. The Company sold 3,843 new-in-box Bitmain S19J
Pro machines, representing 384 PH/s of total hashrate capacity, for
cash proceeds of GBP4.8 million ($5.6 million). These machines are
the last batch of the original Bitmain order scheduled for
installation in October 2022. As a result, the Company's total
hashrate capacity remains at 2.5 EH/s.
No Assurance of Definitive Agreements
While Argo is exploring other financing opportunities, there can
be no assurance that any definitive agreements will be signed or
that any transactions will be consummated. Should Argo be
unsuccessful in completing any further financing, Argo would become
cash flow negative in the near term and would need to curtail or
cease operations. The Company is endeavoring to complete such
financing transactions to provide the Company with working capital
sufficient for its present requirements, that is for at least the
next twelve months from the date of this announcement.
