DMG Blockchain Solutions Reports Second Quarter Results Ending March 31, 2023

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSX-V: DMGI) (OTCQB US: DMGGF) (FRANKFURT: 6AX) (“DMG”), a vertically integrated blockchain and cryptocurrency technology company, today announces its second quarter ended March 31, 2023 unaudited financial results. All financial references are in Canadian Dollars unless specified otherwise.

Recent Highlights

  • Revenue of $7.6 million on 255.8 mined bitcoin, net loss of $3.8 million, $0.02 net loss per share
  • Realized first Petra-based revenue for placing ordinals during the quarter
  • Realized average hashrate of 0.89 EH/s
  • Purchased 350 Bitmain S19 Pro (35 PH/s), 350 Bitmain S19 XP (49 PH/s) and 850 Bitmain S19j Pro+ (104 PH/s) miners, totaling 1,550 units contributing 188 PH/s
  • Cash and digital currency balance up 98% from the prior quarter with $4.8 million in cash and $16.9 million in digital currency; $1 million of debt

Readers are encouraged to review the Company’s March 31, 2023 quarterly unaudited financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis thereof for a fulsome assessment of the Company’s performance and applicable risk factors, available at www.sedar.com.

Sheldon Bennett, DMG Blockchain Solutions’ Chief Executive Officer, commented, “DMG is poised to grow Terra Pool along with Petra-based carbon neutral ordinal inscriptions and bitcoin transactions. We are now focused on execution of our Blockseer software platform to more meaningfully contribute to DMG’s results. Additionally, the improved bitcoin market environment is allowing DMG to speed up its implementation of immersion cooling technology, which should enable greater mining capital efficiency to well position us ahead of the next Bitcoin block subsidy halvening expected to occur in less than a year.”

Steven Eliscu, Chief Operating Officer added, “While the Company continues to manage its spending prudently, with a focus on its software and immersion cooling initiatives, DMG is actively looking at how it can grow its hashrate beyond the announced 1 EH/s of installed and 0.2 EH/s of ordered capacity. Additionally, we believe we can expand our base of software, as the advent of ordinal inscriptions has opened up new possibilities for the Bitcoin blockchain. While our goal of monetizing bitcoin transactions is unchanged, Bitcoin is evolving to be much more than that – we aim to stay nimble to capture these new opportunities.”

Financial Highlights

Revenue for the second quarter ending March 31, 2023 was $7.6 million versus $11.9 million in the year-ago quarter, a decrease of 36%, driven primarily by a 41% year-over-year decline in the quarterly average bitcoin price, partially offset by a 31% increase in the amount of mined bitcoin to 255.8 from 195.9 in the prior-year period.

Operating and maintenance costs for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were $4.6 million as compared to $3.2 million in the year-ago period. The majority of this increase was due to utility costs, which increased $1.2 million during the period. This increase was the result of an increase in digital currency mining activity from additional miners acquired during the year. The Company had 9,282 miners installed as at March 31, 2023, up from 6,378 installed as at March 31, 2022.

General and administrative expenses declined to $777 thousand in the quarter ending March 31, 2023 versus $972 thousand in the prior-year period. This decrease was primarily due to lower professional fees and lower regulatory and filing fees during the period.

Net loss for the quarter was $3.8 million, versus a net profit of $57 thousand in the prior-year period. The loss for the period ending March 31, 2023 compared to the prior-year period was primarily the result of lower revenues combined with increasing operating and maintenance costs, higher depreciation expenses, which was partially offset by lower share-based compensation expenses and lower R&D. It was also offset by a gain on the write down in accounts payable in the year-ago quarter that was not repeated in the current quarter as well as a realized loss on sale of digital currency in the year-ago quarter versus a gain in the second quarter of 2023.

Earnings per share for the second fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023 were negative $0.02 versus $0.00 in the prior year period.

As at March 31, 2023, the Company had cash of $4.8 million, digital currency of $16.9 million and total assets of $94.3 million. For more details, please refer to the Company’s filings.

Such information can generally be identified by the use of forwarding-looking wording such as "may", "expect", "estimate", "anticipate", "intend", "believe" and "continue" or the negative thereof or similar variations. The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of any forward-looking information may prove to be incorrect. Events or circumstances may cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted, as a result of numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, including but not limited to, market and other conditions, volatility in the trading price of the common shares of the Company, business, economic and capital market conditions; the ability to manage operating expenses, which may adversely affect the Company's financial condition; the ability to remain competitive as other better financed competitors develop and release competitive products; regulatory uncertainties; access to equipment; market conditions and the demand and pricing for products; the demand and pricing of bitcoins; security threats, including a loss/theft of DMG's bitcoins; DMG's relationships with its customers, distributors and business partners; the inability to add more power to DMG's facilities; DMG's ability to successfully define, design and release new products in a timely manner that meet customers' needs; the ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel; competition in the industry; the impact of technology changes on the products and industry; failure to develop new and innovative products; the ability to successfully maintain and enforce our intellectual property rights and defend third-party claims of infringement of their intellectual property rights; the impact of intellectual property litigation that could materially and adversely affect the business; the ability to manage working capital; and the dependence on key personnel. DMG may not actually achieve its plans, projections, or expectations. Such statements and information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the environment in which the Company will operate in the future, including the demand for its products, the ability to successfully develop software, that there will be no regulation or law that will prevent the Company from operating its business, anticipated costs, the ability to secure sufficient capital to complete its business plans, the ability to achieve goals and the price of bitcoin. Given these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The securities of DMG are considered highly speculative due to the nature of DMG's business. For further information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties, refer to the Company’s filings on www.SEDAR.com.
