Hut 8 Q2 2024 Earnings Summary

  • Revenue: $35.2 million in Q2 2024, up 72% from $20.5 million in Q2 2023. Increase driven by growth in managed services and other revenue streams, despite a decline in mining revenue.
  • Net Loss: $71.9 million (Q2 2024) compared to $1.7 million (Q2 2023), largely due to a $71.8 million digital asset loss from Bitcoin price drop and new accounting rules (ASU 2023/08 requiring fair value adjustments).
  • Adjusted EBITDA: Loss of $57.5 million vs. income of $14.8 million in Q2 2023. Primarily affected by the digital asset fair value loss.
  • Gross Margin (Digital Asset Mining): Improved from 34% to 46% YoY despite a 71% increase in bitcoin network difficulty. This improvement reflects cost reductions and operational efficiency.

Operational Highlights

  • Energy costs per kWh decreased from $0.053 in Q1 to $0.032 in Q2 2024 — a 40% QoQ reduction due to relocation from hosted to owned facilities and proprietary curtailment software deployment.
  • Bitcoin mining cost: $26,232 per BTC (up only 7% QoQ despite halving).
  • Fleet efficiency: 31.7 J/TH (among industry's oldest). Upgrading to 12 J/TH expected to more than 2.5x hash rate.
