Business
of the Company
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 23, 2010 under the name Verve
Ventures, Inc. On December 7, 2011, the Company changed its name to American Strategic Minerals Corporation and were engaged in exploration
and potential development of uranium and vanadium minerals business. In June 2012, the Company discontinued the minerals business and
began to invest in real estate properties in Southern California. In October 2012, the Company discontinued its real estate business
and the Company commenced IP licensing operations, at which time the Company’s name was changed to Marathon Patent Group, Inc.
The Company commenced mining bitcoin in 2018 and changed its name to Marathon Digital Holdings, Inc. on March 1, 2021. As of June 30,
2022, the Company no longer holds any legacy IP assets and is solely focused on the mining of bitcoin and ancillary opportunities within
the bitcoin ecosystem under the name Marathon Digital Holdings, Inc.
Recent
developments
During
the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, deteriorating macroeconomic conditions contributed to a significant downturn in
financial markets. These conditions were more pronounced in businesses exposed to digital assets, including bitcoin mining. Many
digital asset companies executed cost savings measures, reduced expansion plans and capital expenditures, sold digital assets and in
some cases executed layoffs of staff. Holders of digital assets including bitcoin experienced a significant decrease in the value of
their digital asset holdings during the period. The price of bitcoin dropped from $45,539 on April 1, 2022 to a low of $19,018 on
June 18, 2022, and was $19,785 on June 30, 2022. The Company faced these same challenges, along with operational issues at our Hardin, MT
facility and delays in the energization of a bitcoin mining facility in Texas. The Company did not sell any bitcoin during the
period as a means of raising cash, although we did execute a previously-contracted sale of equipment during the quarter, details of
which are included below. Despite the economic and operational challenges experienced during the quarter, the Company ended the
period with $89.7 million in cash on hand and continues to expect to have sufficient liquidity sources in the future to support
ongoing operations. Our primarily sources of liquidity are expected to be cash on hand, available borrowing capacity with our
Revolving and Term Loan facilities with Silvergate Bank, our ATM facility and our bitcoin holdings.
A
brief discussion of some of the more significant recent events impacting the Company’s operations follows.
On
June 11, 2022, a severe storm passed through Hardin damaging the power generating facility that supplies the data center with power.
As a result, the Company’s bitcoin production at the plant was significantly reduced. Anticipated repairs to the plant were persistently
delayed until July 14, at which point the plant resumed operations at reduced power levels and operating capacity. Additional outages
continued to occur at the plant throughout July, and the Company decided to accelerate its exit from Hardin, moving the date up from
the planned date of August 15 to July 28. As a result, the Company further accelerated the cost of a prepaid service contract and the
remaining depreciation and amortization related to the infrastructure assets at Hardin during the month of July. The data center infrastructure
assets and the prepaid service contract have therefore been fully depreciated or amortized as of July 31, 2022. The bitcoin mining servers
that are on site are in the process of being inventoried and removed from the facility and will be sold or redeployed to other locations
in the near future.
On
June 10, 2022 the Company withdrew approximately 4,769 bitcoin from its investment in NYDIG Digital Assets Fund III, LP, the (“Investment
Fund”) and transferred the bitcoin directly into the Company’s account. As a result, the Company will no longer receive “mark-to-market”
accounting for the bitcoin formerly held in the Investment Fund and the 4,769 bitcoin will now be classified as “Digital currencies”
on the balance sheet and subject to impairment analysis as a indefinite-lived intangible.
On
June 14, 2022 the Company terminated its loan of 600 bitcoin with NYDIG. The Company decided to terminate the bitcoin loan in response
to recent market conditions and its desire to hold all of its bitcoin directly so it could fully utilize these holdings for corporate
purposes as needed, including as collateral for credit facilities.
On
July 5, 2022, the Company expanded certain hosting arrangements to include an additional 42 megawatts of hosting capacity at a facility near
Granbury, Texas. The Company expects to have an additional 14,000 miners installed at this facility, bringing the total number of miners
installed near Granbury to 26,000 or approximately 3.6 EH/s. Based on current construction schedules these miners are expected to be
installed before the end of 2022.
On
July 12, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to secure approximately 200 megawatts of hosting capacity for the Company’s
previously purchased miners, including 90 megawatts of hosting capacity in Texas and at least 110 megawatts of hosting capacity
in North Dakota. The Company expects to have 66,000 miners, representing approximately 9.2 EH/s, hosted across these facilities. Based
on current construction schedules, installations of the Company’s miners are expected to begin at these facilities during the fourth
quarter of 2022 with all miners installed by approximately mid-year 2023. As part of this agreement, the Company has an option to increase
hosting capabilities utilizing up to an additional 70 megawatts in North Dakota. The Company also secured an additional 12 megawatts
of hosting capacity with a variety of other providers and expects to install approximately 4,000 miners, representing approximately 0.8
EH/s, with these hosting providers, starting in August 2022.
19
On
July 15, 2022 the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission found that King Mountain Upton Wind, LLC would retain its
status as an exempt wholesale generator notwithstanding a proposal to share ownership of the Interconnection Facilities as tenants-in-common
with a retail energy customer. King Mountain had filed a petition on April 5, 2022 seeking a declaratory order to confirm its status
as an exempt wholesale generator. In the Petition, King Mountain stated that it proposed to share ownership of interconnection
facilities that are currently eligible facilities within the meaning of section 32(a)(2) of the Public Utility Holding Company Act
as tenants-in common with a retail energy customer. King Mountain stated that it intended to sell wholesale electricity from the Generating
Facility to a third party, who would then sell electricity at retail to the owner of a modular data center which would operate adjacent
to the Generating Facility and supply it with renewable energy. This action enabled the energization a modular data center adjacent to
the Generating Facility. Approximately 69,000 of the Company’s bitcoin mining machines are located at this data center and energization
enabled this equipment to come online starting on August 5, 2022.
Non-GAAP
Financial Measures
We
provide investors with a reconciliation from net income to the non-GAAP measure known as Adjusted EBITDA as a component of Management’s
Discussion and Analysis. For each period in question, we define “Adjusted EBITDA” as (a) GAAP net income (or loss) plus (b)
adjustments to add back the impacts of (1) depreciation and amortization, (2) interest expense, (3) income tax expense and (4) adjustments
for non-cash and non-recurring items (which currently include (i) stock compensation expense, (ii) net of withholding taxes and (iii)
impairments of patents (if any).
Adjusted
EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and, as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures of other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures are subject to material limitations as they are not in accordance with, or a
substitute for, measurements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be considered in isolation and should
be read only in conjunction with our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Reports on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Management uses both Adjusted EBITDA and the supplemental information provided herein as a means of understanding,
managing and evaluating business performance and to help inform operating decision making. We rely primarily on our Consolidated Condensed
Financial Statements to understand, manage, and evaluate our financial performance and use the non-GAAP financial measures only supplementally .

Revenues
and Total Margin
We generated revenues of $24.9 million during the
three months ended June 30, 2022 compared with $29.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. This $4.4 million decrease in
revenue was driven by lower revenue per bitcoin mined ($6.8 million) resulting from lower market prices for bitcoin in the current-year
period when compared with the prior-year period. This decrease was partially offset by an 8% increase in bitcoin production activity (a
$2.4 million increase in revenues) from the prior-year period. Cost of revenues – energy, hosting and other during the three months
ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $16.7 million compared with $4.1 million in the prior-year period. This $12.6 million increase was driven
by accelerated cost recognition associated with the early exit from Hardin ($9.4 million) and to a lesser extent higher costs per bitcoin
mined. Total margin, which we define as revenues less cost of revenues – energy, hosting and other and cost of revenues –
depreciation and amortization, totalled a loss of $16.5 million compared with an income position of $22.3 million in the prior-year period.
This $38.8 million decrease in total margin was driven primarily by the impact of accelerated costs related to the Hardin exit and the
lower revenue per bitcoin mined.
Notwithstanding
the increased mining activities vs. the prior-year period, our production of bitcoin during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was
negatively impacted by ongoing maintenance issues and the storm at our Hardin, MT facility as well as the delays in energizing our bitcoin
mining equipment at the King Mountain data center in Texas.
Gain
on sale of assets
On
December 2, 2021, we entered into an agreement with DCRBN Ventures Development and Acquisition LLC (“DCRBN”) in
which the Company agreed to sell certain equipment to DCRBN starting in April 2022, in conjunction with the development of commercial
activities at the King Mountain wind farm in McCamey, TX. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company sold equipment for
cash proceeds totalling $87.2 million and realized a pre-tax gain on the sale of such assets of $58.2 million. There were no such sales
in the prior-year period.
General
and administrative expenses
General
and administrative expenses were $12.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $5.8 million from the prior-year
period. Our general and administrative expenses increased primarily as a result of higher stock-based (non-cash) compensation expense,
which increased to $6.2 million from $0.9 million in the prior-year period; and higher costs associated with increased business activities.
Changes
in carrying value of digital assets:
● Impairment
of digital currencies recorded in operating expenses : We incurred significant impairment
of digital assets during the three months ended June 30, 2022 as the price of bitcoin declined
to a low of $19,018 on June 18, 2022. Total impairment expense was $127.6 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2022 compared with an impairment expense of $11.1 million for
the prior-year period.
● Change
in fair value of digital currencies recorded in operating income (expense) : On June 10,
2022 the company withdrew 4,769 bitcoin from its investment fund. Total changes in the fair
value of investment fund from April 1 through the June 10 withdrawal date resulted in a loss
of $79.7 million in the current year period. During the prior-year quarter, the change in
fair value of the bitcoin held in the investment fund was a loss of $114.9 million.
Non-operating
income
Non-operating
income decreased primarily due to changes in the fair value of a stock warrant liability recorded in the prior-year period.
Depreciation
and amortization
Depreciation
and amortization, which we classify as “Cost of revenues – depreciation and amortization” in our statements of operations,
increased significantly when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to the acceleration of depreciation related to our exit
of the Hardin, MT facility (a $15.8 million increase in depreciation) and, to a lesser extent increased depreciation costs associated
with a higher number of mining servers in operation ($4.7 million).
Interest
expense
Interest
expense increased $3.7 million from the prior-year as a result interest related to the convertible notes issued in November 2021 ($2.8
million) and interest on borrowings outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit agreement ($0.9 million).
Income
tax expense
Income
tax expense was $9.8 million for the period ended June 30, 2022. We recorded tax expense despite a pre-tax loss from operations due to
a valuation adjustment related to the certain deferred tax benefits.
21
Net
loss
We
recorded a net loss of $(191.6) million in the current year period compared with net loss of $(108.9) million in the prior period. This
$82.7 million decline was primarily driven by the impact of declines in the carrying value of our digital assets ($81.5 million), higher
depreciation expense ($21.8 million), lower total margin $(17.0 million), increased income tax expense ($9.8 million), higher operating
expenses ($5.8 million) increased interest expense ($3.7 million) partially offset by the gain on the sale of equipment of $58.1 million.
Adjusted
EBITDA
Adjusted
EBITDA was a loss of $(147.2) million compared with a loss of $(105.1) million in the prior-year period.
This
$42.1 million decline was primarily driven by the impact of declines in the carrying value of our digital assets ($81.5 million) and
lower total margin $(17.0 million) partially offset by the gain on the sale of equipment ($58.1 million).

Revenues
and Total Margin
We generated revenues of $76.6 million during the
six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with $38.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase in revenue was driven
by a 132% increase in bitcoin production ($50.9 million) partially offset by lower revenue per bitcoin mined ($12.7 million) resulting
from lower market prices for bitcoin in the current-year period when compared with the prior-year period. Cost of revenues – energy,
hosting and other during the six months ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $29.2 million compared with $5.7 million in the prior-year period.
This $23.5 million increase was driven by higher costs per bitcoin mined ($15.9 million, including the impact of accelerated costs related
to the exit from Hardin) and increased costs associated with higher bitcoin production ($7.6 million). Total margin, which we define as
revenues less cost of revenues – energy, hosting and other and cost of revenues – depreciation and amortization, totalled
$8.9 million compared with $29.1 million in the prior-year period. This $20.2 million decrease in total margin was driven primarily by
the impact of accelerated costs related to the Hardin exit partially offset by the increase in bitcoin production.
Notwithstanding
the increased mining activities vs. the prior-year period, our production of bitcoin during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was negatively
impacted by ongoing maintenance issues and the storm at our Hardin, MT facility as well as the delays in energizing our bitcoin mining
equipment at the King Mountain data center in Texas.
Gain
on sale of assets

December 2, 2021, we entered into an agreement with DCRBN Ventures Development and Acquisition LLC (“DCRBN”) in
which the Company agreed to sell certain equipment to DCRBN starting in April 2022, in conjunction with the development of commercial

proceeds totalling $87.2 million and realized a pre-tax gain on the sale of such assets of $58.2 million. There were no such sales in
the prior-year period.
22
General
and administrative expenses
General
and administrative expenses were $26.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with $60.2 million for the prior year
period, a decrease of $33.4 million from the prior-year period. This decrease was primarily the result of a $36.5 million decrease in
stock-based (non-cash) compensation expense partially offset by higher costs associated with increased business activities.
Changes
in carrying value of digital assets:
● Impairment
of digital currencies recorded in operating expenses : We incurred significant impairment
of digital assets during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as the price of bitcoin hit new
lows in June 2022. Total impairment expense was $147.1 million for the six months ended June
30, 2022 compared with an impairment expense of $11.7 million for the prior-year period.
● Change
in fair value of digital currencies recorded in operating income (expense) : During the
month of June the company withdrew 4,769 bitcoin from its investment fund. Total year to
day changes in the fair value of investment fund through the June 10 withdrawal date resulted
in a loss of $85.0 million in the current year period. During the prior-year period, the
change in fair value of the bitcoin held in the investment fund was an increase in fair value
of $17.3 million.
Non-operating
income (loss)
Non-operating
income increased primarily due to changes in the fair value of a stock warrant liability recorded in the prior-year period.
Depreciation
and amortization
Depreciation
and amortization, which we classify as “Cost of revenues – depreciation and amortization” in our statements of operations,
increased $34.9 million when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to the acceleration of depreciation related to our exit
of the Hardin, MT facility (a $19.9 million) and increased depreciation costs associated with a higher number of mining servers in operation
when compared with the prior year period ($10.8 million).
Interest
expense
Interest
expense increased $6.6 million from the prior-year as a result interest related to the convertible notes issued in November 2021 ($5.7
million) and interest on borrowings outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit agreement ($0.9 million).
Income
tax expense (benefit)
Income
tax expense was $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with a small tax benefit in the prior year. We recorded
tax expense despite a pre-tax loss from operations due to a valuation adjustment related to the certain deferred tax benefits record
in the current year period.
Net
loss
We
recorded a net loss of $(204.6) million in the current year period compared with net loss of $(25.5) million in the prior period. This
$179.1 million decline was primarily driven by the impact of declines in the carrying value of our digital assets ($237.7 million), higher
depreciation expense ($34.9 million), and to a lesser extent higher interest expense and income tax expense. Partially offsetting these
unfavorable variances was the gain on the sale of equipment ($58.1 million), lower general and administrative expenses ($33.3 million),
and higher total margin ($14.7 million).
Adjusted
EBITDA
Adjusted
EBITDA was a loss of $(137.6) million compared with positive Adjusted EBITDA of $30.1 million in the prior year period. This $167.6 million
decline was primarily driven by the impact of declines in the carrying value of our digital assets ($232.2 million) partially offset
by the gain on the sale of equipment ($58.2 million), higher total margin ($14.7 million).
23
Financial
Condition and Liquidity
Cash,
cash equivalents and restricted cash totalled $89.7 million at June 30, 2022, a decrease of $178.9 million from December 31, 2021. The
decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was primarily driven by a $334.0 million use of cash from investing activities
resulting primarily from significant levels of advances to vendors related to bitcoin mining server orders ($394.0 million) and, to a
lesser extent, purchases of property and equipment ($13.8 million) and equity investments ($14.0 million) partially offset by proceeds
from assets sales ($87.2 million).
Cash
flows from financing activities resulted in a source of cash of $196.0 million, primarily from proceeds from the issuance of common stock
($161.0 million) and proceeds from borrowings outstanding under the Company’s $100 million revolving credit agreement ($35.0 million).
Cash
flows from operating activities resulted in a use of funds of $40.8 million. Positive cash flow impacts of operating activities
before the impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities (a $47.9 million source of funds) were more than offset by a $88.7
million use of funds from changes in operating assets and liabilities, primarily due to changes in digital currencies (a $76.5
million use of funds).
We had $35 million outstanding under its revolving credit agreement at June 30, 2022. The maximum borrowings outstanding under the
credit agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2022, was $70 million.
The
Company expects to have sufficient liquidity, including cash on hand and available borrowing capacity to support ongoing operations.
We will continue to seek to fund the growth in our business activities through the capital markets, including both debt and equity issuances.
