BITDEER TECHNOLOGIES GROUP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.     ORGANIZATION
 
General information
 

Bitdeer Technologies Group (the “Company” or “BTG”) is a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on December 8, 2021. The address of its registered office is 89 Nexus Way, Camana Bay, Grand Cayman KY1-9009, Cayman Islands. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effectuating the Business Combination (as defined below). See Note 6(a). Prior to Business Combination, the Company owned no material assets and did not operate any business.
 

Bitdeer Technologies Holding Company (“Bitdeer”) is a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on November 18, 2020. On April 13, 2023, Bitdeer completed the business combination with Blue Safari Group Acquisition Corp. (“BSGA”) via a multiple-merger structure (the “Business Combination”). Upon completion of the Business Combination, with Bitdeer being the surviving entity, both Bitdeer and its subsidiaries, and BSGA became wholly-owned subsidiaries of BTG, the ultimate holding company. BTG is listed on Nasdaq Capital Market and commenced trading under symbol “BTDR”.
 

The Company and its subsidiaries (together, the “Group”) are principally engaged in the Cloud Hash Rate business, the self-mining business and the hosting business (collectively, the “Bitdeer Business”) as discussed in the Annual Financial Statements (defined below). The Company does not conduct any substantive operations of its own but conducts its primary business operation through its subsidiaries.
 

2.     BASIS OF PREPARATION


The interim financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2024 (“Interim Financial Information”) has been prepared in accordance with the same accounting policies adopted in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 (“Annual Financial Statements”).


The Interim Financial Information comprises condensed consolidated statements of financial position, condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity, condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, and notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The Interim Financial Information has not been audited.



The Interim Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and should be read in conjunction with the Annual Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS as issued by IASB”). The preparation of an interim financial information in conformity with IAS 34 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses on a year-to-date basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates.


This Interim Financial Information contains selected explanatory notes. The notes include an explanation of events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of the Group for the six months ended on June 30, 2024. The Interim Financial Information and notes thereon do not include all of the information required for a full set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRSs.
 

3.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 

 The accounting policies applied in the Interim Financial Information are the same as those applied in the Annual Financial Statements. The Group also discloses accounting policies described below related to transactions that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2024, which did not exist during the periods covered by the Annual Financial Statements.
 
F - 6

BITDEER TECHNOLOGIES GROUP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
a.
Business Combinations
 

Business combinations are accounted for under IFRS 3 using the acquisition method as of the acquisition date, which is the date on which the Group obtains control of the acquiree. Under the acquisition method, the Group allocates the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired to goodwill. A bargain purchase gain will be recognized under the circumstance where the consideration transferred is less than the identified net assets acquired. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition date fair values of assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interest issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date.
 
b.
Goodwill


Goodwill arising from business combination is not amortized and tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.


Goodwill is allocated to each of the cash-generating units (“CGUs”), or groups of CGUs, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination, using a relative value method. The units or groups of units are identified at the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
 

An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. The impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in a CGU. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.
 
c.
Inventories
 

Inventories, consisting of raw materials, work in process and finished goods, which are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is calculated using the standard cost method and comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion, and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
 

At each reporting date, inventories are reviewed for obsolescence, damage, or slow-moving stock. A write-down is recorded as the cost of revenue if the carrying amount exceeds the estimated net realizable value. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories is recognized as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognized in the period in which the reversal occurs.
 
d.
Financial Instruments

Financial liabilities


 Financial liabilities are classified and measured either at amortized cost using effective interest method or at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as at fair value through profit or loss when the financial liability is either held for trading or is designated as at fair value through profit or loss.



Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss.


Financial liabilities other than those held for trading purposes and designated as at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured at amortized cost at the end of each reporting period.

F - 7

BITDEER TECHNOLOGIES GROUP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Derecognition of financial liabilities


The Group derecognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liabilities derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss.

Derivative liabilities
 

The Group accounts for financial instruments, such as warrants, as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the instrument and applicable authoritative guidance in accordance with IAS 32.
 

Warrants issued by the Group that provide for potential adjustments to the exercise price or number of shares in response to, among other events, future equity issuances, result in the Group’s obligation to issue variable number of shares in exchange for a fixed total consideration. These warrants are classified as derivative liabilities which are measured at fair value at the issuance date and subsequently remeasured at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in the profit or loss.
 

For each reporting period, any changes in the fair value of the derivative liabilities are recognized in other net gains / (losses). The Group classifies derivative liabilities within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs in the valuation process.

e.
Changes in accounting policies and newly adopted accounting policies


The Group has applied the following amendments to IFRSs issued by the IASB to this interim financial report for the current accounting period:

• Amendments to IAS 1, Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Disclosure of Accounting Policies

• Amendments to IAS 1, Classification of Debt with Covenants

• Amendments to IFRS 16, Subsequent Measurement of Sale and Leaseback Transactions by a Seller-lessee

• Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7, Supplier Finance Arrangements
 

None of these amendments have had a material effect on how the Group’s results and financial position for the current or prior periods have been prepared or presented in this interim financial report. The Group has not applied any new standard or interpretation that is not yet effective for the current accounting period.
 
f.
Standards and interpretations effective but not yet adopted
 

The following standards apply to the preparation of sustainability reports and are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. The authority of the Company’s jurisdiction has not yet mandated these standards; however, the Company is continuing to review the impact of the standards on its financial reporting.

 • IFRS S1, General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information

• IFRS S2, Climate-related Disclosures


Certain other new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the reporting periods presented and have not been early adopted by the Group. Those standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Group in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.
 
4.     USE OF JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES
 

In preparing the Interim Financial Information, management has made judgements and estimates that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, profit and loss. Estimates and judgments are continuously evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
 
F - 8

BITDEER TECHNOLOGIES GROUP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates may not be equal to the related actual results. The significant judgement made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those described in the Annual Financial Statements, with additional estimates applied during the interim period as follows:
 
Identified intangible assets acquired from business combinations
 

The identified intangible assets acquired from business combinations typically do not have observable prices and measuring their fair values typically involves the use of valuation models and unobservable inputs that are subject to significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions can include, among others, the cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the future and discount rates. The Group believes the estimates applied to be based on reasonable assumptions, but which are inherently uncertain and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.
 
Impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill
 

Fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill is estimated to determine the recoverable amount in an impairment test. The determination of fair value requires the use of estimates in respect of forecast cash flows, discount rates and other management judgements. The Group believes the estimates applied to be based on reasonable assumptions, but which are inherently uncertain and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.
 
5.     FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 

Financial risk factors
 

The Group is exposed to various market risks including cryptocurrency risk, interest rate risk, investment risk and foreign currency risk, as well as credit risk and liquidity risk associated with financial assets and liabilities. The Group has designed and implemented various risk management strategies, which are the same as those discussed in the Annual Financial Statements, to ensure the exposure to these risks is consistent with its risk tolerance and business objectives.
 
Liquidity risk

BITDEER TECHNOLOGIES GROUP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Fair value measurement
 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair values are estimated at a specific point in time, by discounting expected cash flows at rates for assets and liabilities of the same remaining maturities and conditions. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and significant judgment, and therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
 

The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation techniques:
 
 
Level 1 valuation: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
 
 
Level 2 valuation: inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
 
 
Level 3 valuation: fair value measured using significant unobservable inputs.
 

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
 

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, except for the investments in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, cryptocurrency-settled receivables and payables, USDC, and derivative liabilities, substantially all of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities are carried at amortized costs and the carrying amounts approximate their fair values.
 

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is determined with reference to quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. These instruments are included in level 1.
 

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required for evaluating the fair value of a financial instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2. If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
 

The Group’s finance department performs valuations of financial instruments. The finance department reports directly to the chief financial officer and discusses valuation processes and results with the chief financial officer in order to comply with the Group’s accounting and reporting requirements.
 

The valuation procedures applied include consideration of recent transactions in the same security or financial instrument, recent financing of the investee companies, economic and market conditions, current and projected financial performance of the investee companies, and the investee companies’ management team as well as potential future strategies to realize the investments. Certain information used in the valuation procedures is obtained through the assistance of independent third-party valuation firm.

6.     BUSINESS COMBINATION

(a)
Business combination between BTG, Bitdeer and BSGA (the “Business Combination”)


On December 15, 2021, Bitdeer entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, which was subsequently amended on May 30, 2022, December 2, 2022 and March 7, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which BTG, Bitdeer and BSGA entered into a Business Combination transaction via a multiple-merger structure, where (i) Blue Safari Merge Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BTG merged with and into BSGA, with BSGA being the surviving entity, (ii) BSGA merges with and into Blue Safari Merge II Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BTG, with Blue Safari Merge II Limited being the surviving entity, and (iii) Bitdeer Merge Limited, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of Cayman Islands and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of BTG, merged into and with Bitdeer, with Bitdeer being the surviving company and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of BTG.


 On April 13, 2023, the Business Combination was completed in accordance with the Merger Agreement. Upon completion of the Business Combination, (i) each ordinary share of BSGA issued and outstanding were cancelled in exchange for one BTG Class A ordinary shares, of which 2,607,498 Class A ordinary shares were issued, (ii) each ordinary share and preferred share of Bitdeer issued and outstanding were cancelled in exchange for BTG Class A ordinary shares, and, in the case of the ordinary share and preferred share of Bitdeer held by Jihan Wu, founder of Bitdeer, or the entity controlled by him, namely Victory Courage Limited, BTG Class V ordinary shares, at an exchange ratio of approximately 0.00858, of which 60,281,185 BTG Class A ordinary shares and 48,399,922 Class V ordinary shares were issued, (iii) each share award to acquire ordinary shares of Bitdeer granted under Bitdeer’s 2021 Share Incentive Plan outstanding, whether vested or unvested, were assumed by BTG and converted into a share award representing the same rights to receive BTG Class A ordinary shares, except that the number of BTG Class A ordinary shares subject to such share awards shall equal to the product of (A) the number of Bitdeer ordinary shares that were subject to such Bitdeer share awards, multiplied by (B) an exchange ratio of approximately 0.00858.

BITDEER TECHNOLOGIES GROUP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The share capital, other reserve, weighted average number of shares outstanding and loss per share calculations have been retrospectively restated to the equivalent number of shares reflecting the exchange ratio as a result of the Business Combination.
 

The Business Combination is accounted for as a “reverse recapitalization” in accordance with IFRS as issued by IASB, as defined below. Under this method of accounting, Bitdeer has been identified as the acquirer and BSGA and BTG have been treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the fact that subsequent to the Business Combination, Bitdeer’s shareholders have a majority of the voting power of the Company, Bitdeer comprises all of the ongoing operations of the combined company, Bitdeer comprises a majority of the governing body of the combined company, and Bitdeer’s senior management comprises all of the senior management of the combined company. As BSGA does not meet the definition of a business as defined in IFRS 3, “Business Combinations”, the transaction is outside the scope of IFRS 3 and is accounted for as an equity settled, share-based payment transaction in accordance with IFRS 2, “Share-based Payment”. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Bitdeer issuing ordinary shares at the fair value in order for the ownership interest in the combined entity to be the same as if the transaction had taken the legal form of Bitdeer acquiring 100% of BSGA and BTG, accompanied by a recapitalization. Any difference between the fair value of the ordinary shares deemed to have been issued by Bitdeer and the amount of pre-existing debtor relationship between Bitdeer and BSGA, and the fair value of BSGA’s and BTG’s net liabilities assumed represents a listing fee through profit or loss. No goodwill or other intangible assets was recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination was those of Bitdeer.
 

As a result of this reverse recapitalization, a listing fee of US$33.2 million has been recorded to reflect the difference between the fair value of ordinary shares deemed to be issued to the shareholders of BSGA, the settlement of pre-existing debtor relationship with BSGA, and the fair value of net liabilities of BSGA and BTG assumed. Bitdeer’s transaction-related costs of US$8.0 million, such as commissions, professional fees and regulatory fees are directly attributable to this transaction were recorded in equity as a deduction of other reserve. Net payment related to Business Combination is US$7.7 million, which comprises of the transaction-related costs of US$8.0 million offset against with cash and cash equivalents of US$0.3 million acquired.

Acquisition of Troll Housing AS and Tydal Data Center AS (the “Norway Acquisition”)


In April 2024, the Group entered into a share purchase agreement with Renol Invest AS and Bryhni.com AS, the owners of both Troll Housing AS and Tydal Data Center AS (collectively, the “Target Companies” or “Troll and Tydal”), to purchase 100% of the equity interest in the Target Companies. Troll and Tydal are private limited liability companies incorporated in Norway, and conduct business for the management and operation of datacenters. The acquisition closed on April 15, 2024 (the “acquisition date”).


The Group accounted for the acquisition as a business combination under IFRS 3, using the acquisition method.


The details of the purchase consideration, the net assets acquired, and goodwill are as follows:

The Group issued US$15.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes on April 15, 2024, in relation to the business combination. The senior secured notes bear an annual interest of 6%, mature five years after April 15, 2024, and are secured by 100% of the shares of the Target Companies. The fair value of the senior secured notes is measured by calculating the present value of the notes using the effective interest rate. The pledge of the 100% of issued shares capital of the Target Companies does not influence the Group’s control over the Target Companies, as (i) the Group has power over the Target Companies to direct relevant activities of the Target Companies, (ii) the Group has exposures to variable returns from involvement with the Target Companies, and (iii) the Group has the ability to exercise its power over the Target Companies to affect the amount of those returns.


(2)
The fair value of the Class A ordinary shares is determined based on the number of shares transferred and the closing price on the acquisition date. The shares are transferred upon the completion of the acquisition.


(3)
The Group granted Class A ordinary share call options at a strike price of US$35.96 per share, with the expiry date set as the later of April 15, 2029, or six months after all principal and interest accrued under the senior secured notes have been repaid. The fair value was recognized on the acquisition date based on the binomial model with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist. The following table provides the key inputs used in the model for determining the value of the option:

Settlement of pre-existing debtor relationship with the Target Companies represents the payable amount of approximately US$16.4 million from the Group to the Target Companies in relation to the services provided and offset against a prepayment made by the Group to the Target Companies of approximately US$6.3 million. The services provided by the Target Companies, include electricity supply, construction services, and daily operational management for the mining datacenters prior to the date of acquisition.
 

For financial reporting purposes, the fair value of the net assets acquired from the Target Companies is based on their financial statements as of March 31, 2024, which is the most recent financial statement available at the time of the fair value assessment on the acquisition date. There were no material transactions occurred between March 31, 2024 and the acquisition date.

The fair value of the land at the acquisition date, of which the amount was included in property, plant and equipment, was measured using the sales comparison method under the market approach with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist and amounted to US$1.1 million.


The rights to electricity capacity acquired in the business combination are recognized at fair value and the fair value at the acquisition date was US$22.4 million using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach, with assistance from an independent valuation specialist. The key inputs include operation projection and the discount rate. The rights to electricity capacity are granted by the Norwegian state and regional electricity grid operator and do not expire as long as they are being utilized. The Group intends to fully utilize the capacity in its operations and considers this intangible asset to have indefinite useful lives. The intangible asset is tested for impairment annually or whenever there is an indication at the end of a reporting period that the asset may be impaired.


The above goodwill is premarily attributable to the ability and experience in regional operations and cannot be recognized as separate intangible assets. The Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.


Deferred tax liabilities relating to temporary differences between the tax bases and accounting bases of the assets acquired on the acquisition date were recognized in an amount of US$5.1 million.


For the period from the acquisition date to June 30, 2024, the Target Companies contributed revenue and net income of nil and US$1.9 million, respectively. On an unaudited pro forma basis, assuming this business combination had occurred on January 1, 2024, the Target Companies would have contributed revenue and net income of approximately nil and US$3.0 million for the period ended June 30, 2024. The Target Companies generated revenue solely from providing services to the Group. The Group achieved cost and expense savings from the acquisition, as a result of retaining the margins the Target Companies would have charged if they were not acquired.

Contract assets and liabilities
 

A contract asset is recognized when the Group recognizes revenue before being unconditionally entitled to the consideration under the payment terms set out in the contract. Contract assets are assessed for expected credit losses and are reclassified to receivables when the right to the consideration has become unconditional. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Group did not have any contract assets.
 

A contract liability is recognized when the customer pays consideration for goods or services before the Group recognizes the related revenue. A contract liability would also be recognized if the Group has an unconditional right to receive non-refundable consideration before the Group recognizes the related revenue. In such cases, a corresponding receivable would also be recognized. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Group had contract liabilities, presented as deferred revenue and deferred revenue from a related party on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of financial position, of approximately US$119.9 million and US$144.3 million. Approximately US$33.1 million and US$29.2 million, included in the deferred revenue balances at January 1, 2024 and 2023, respectively, was recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
 

8.     SEGMENT INFORMATION
 

As discussed in the Annual Financial Statements, the chief operating decision maker makes resources allocation decisions based on internal management functions and assesses the Group’s business performance as one integrated business instead of by separate business lines or geographical regions. Accordingly, the Group has only one operating segment and therefore, no segment information is presented.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Group owned short-term deposits, which were classified as cash equivalents, in an amount of approximately US$58.8 million with maturities in July 2024 and US$12.4 million with maturities in January 2024, and interest ranging from 2.90% to 5.27% and 2.40% to 4.80%, respectively.
 

The Group’s restricted cash primarily relates to the application of standby letters of credit (“SLC”). The SLCs provide the beneficiaries, which are the service providers, the ability to draw from the banks for a designated maximum aggregate amount (the “Draw Amount”). The details of SLCs are as follows:

Range of expiration dates

The amount and expiration dates of the SLCs are amended, from time to time, by the Group and beneficiaries, as a result of the amendments to the associated service agreements. In connection with the issuance of the SLCs, the banks held the Group’s cash balance equal to the Draw Amount as security. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, none was utilized by the beneficiaries from the standby letters of credits.

The Group pays deposits to certain electricity service providers. In order to minimize the deposit paid to the electricity supplier, in April 2023, Bitdeer Inc., a subsidiary of the Group, has entered into a guaranty agreement (the “2023 Guaranty Agreement”) with one of the electricity suppliers to act as a guarantor to provide the assurance for the payment obligation of another subsidiary of the Group in connection with electricity service subscribed. The total liability of the guarantor is limited to the lesser of the guaranteed obligations under all agreements or US$13.0 million in each case. In February 2024,  Bitdeer and Bitdeer, Inc. together entered into a guaranty agreement with the electricity supplier to amend the 2023 Guaranty Agreement and limit the guarantor’s total liability to the lesser of the guaranteed obligations under all agreement or US$30.0 million in each case.

During the six months periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, there were no inventory recognized as an expense and included in cost of sales, and no write-down or reserve of write-down of inventory.


During the periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Group did not recognize any allowance for expected credit losses or impairment for prepayments and other assets.

The Group did not record any impairment loss on intangible assets and goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

17.   LEASES
 

The Group occupies most of its office premises and certain mining datacenters under lease arrangements, which generally have an initial lease term between two years to 30 years. Lease contracts are typically made for fixed periods but may have extension options. The Group accounts for lease and non-lease component separately, where the non-lease component is charged to expenses as they incur. Any extension options in these leases have not been included in the lease liabilities unless the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the extension option. In addition, periods after termination options are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain not to be terminated. The Group does not have an option to purchase these leased assets at the expiration of the lease periods.

The Group issued a US$30.0 million promissory note on July 23, 2021. The promissory note is non-secured, bears an annual interest rate of 8%, matures on July 23, 2023 and provides the holder an option to convert all or any portion of the note into the ordinary shares of Bitdeer at US$0.0632 per share at any time from the issuance of the note to the second anniversary of the date of issuance. Approximately US$683,000 was recognized as an equity component. In July 2023, the Group repaid US$7.0 million in principal and amended the promissory note to extend the maturity of the promissory note to July 21, 2025. In addition, to reflect the reverse recapitalization effectuated in April 2023 as disclosed in Note 6(a), the shares the promissory note is convertible into was changed from the ordinary shares of Bitdeer to the Class A ordinary shares of the Group, and the per-share conversion price was adjusted to US$7.3660 from US$0.0632. The extension of the maturity date is accounted for as a debt modification, and a gain from modification of approximately US$481,000 was recognized in earnings. The unamortized discount as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was approximately US$265,000 and US$382,000, respectively.

19.   DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES


As disclosed in Note 23, the Group issued Tether warrants to purchase up to 5,000,000 Class A ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$10.00 per share and exercisable within one year in connection with the private placement with Tether in May 2024. The warrant includes repricing adjustments for offerings at a price lower than the existing exercise price of the warrant and as a result, the Group has the obligation to issue a variable number of shares for a fixed total consideration upon exercise of the warrants.


The fair value of the warrant was determined using the binomial model, which is a type of option pricing model with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist. Inputs to the model include assumptions about the expected volatility of the Group’s stock, the expected life of the warrants, the risk-free interest rate, and other factors.

22.   SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
 

In March 2023, the board of directors of BTG approved the 2023 Share Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”), which was effective upon the completion of the Business Combination on April 13, 2023. Under the 2023 Plan, the Group is able to issue up to an aggregate of 21,877,912 Class A ordinary shares to the designated recipients. In April 2023, the Group modified the expiration date of all outstanding share awards to be the tenth anniversary from the date of grant. The modification had no impact to the overall financial presentation. BTG granted a total of 1,276,418 shares awards in two batches in January and April 2024 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and a total of 401,434 shares awards in two batches in January and April 2023 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to the designated recipients under the 2023 Plan. Each share award grants an option for the recipient to purchase one share of the Group’s ordinary shares at exercise prices ranging from US$3.50 to US$9.86 and US$3.50 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The majority of the share awards vest from three to five years and certain share awards vest immediately upon issuance. The recipient shall continue to provide services to the Group by each vesting date. All share awards granted expire on the tenth anniversary from the date of grant.
 

In June 2023, the board of directors of BTG approved the 2023 Performance Share Plan (the “2023 Performance Plan”), which was effective in October 2023. Under the 2023 Performance Plan, the Group is able to issue up to an aggregate of 1,112,886 Class A ordinary shares to the designated recipients. The number of Class A ordinary shares available for issuance under the 2023 Performance Plan could be subsequently adjusted to be no more than 11,128,861 based on the Group’s market capitalization as set forth in the 2023 Performance Plan. The Group did not issue any award under the 2023 Performance Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
 

The following table illustrates the number of shares and weighted average exercise prices of, and movements in, share awards. For retrospective presentation, the number of Bitdeer’s share awards have been scaled by the exchange ratio of approximately 0.00858 for periods prior to the completion of the Business Combination on April 13, 2023.

The above inputs for the binomial model have been determined based on the following:
 

Dividend return is estimated by reference to the Group’s plan to distribute dividends in the near future. Currently, this is estimated to be zero as the Group plans to retain all profit for corporate expansion;
 

Expected volatility is estimated based on the daily close price volatility of a number of comparable companies to the Group;
 

Risk-free interest rate is based on the yield to maturity of U.S. treasury bills denominated in US$ at the option valuation date;
 

Exercise multiple is based on empirical research on typical share award exercise behavior.

23.   EQUITY
 

Issued share capital
 

On April 13, 2023, Bitdeer completed the Business Combination described in Note 6(a), upon which the Group’s equity structure changed to that of BTG and the authorized share capital is US$50,000 divided into: (i) 499,600,000,000 Class A ordinary shares with a par value of US$0.0000001 each, (ii) 200,000,000 Class V ordinary shares with a par value of US$0.0000001 each, (iii) 200,000,000 undesignated shares with a par value of US$0.0000001 each. Upon completion of the Business Combination, all issued and outstanding 4,384,796,703 Class A ordinary shares, 453,892,313 Series A preferred shares, 870,232,230 Series B preferred shares and 1,314,267,705 Series B+ preferred shares of Bitdeer were cancelled in exchange for newly issued 60,281,185 Class A ordinary shares of BTG at an exchange ratio of approximately 0.00858.

26.   LOSS PER SHARE


The calculation of basic earnings / (loss) per share is based on the profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity shareholders of the Group and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.


Diluted earnings / (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares outstanding during the respective periods.


As the Group incurred losses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the potential ordinary shares related to the outstanding share awards, convertible debt, warrant recorded in the derivative liabilities and options issued in the Norway Acquisition were not included in the calculation of dilutive loss per share, as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
