NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In thousands of U.S. dollars, except for data relating to quantity of PPE, shares, warrants and digital assets)

 

NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY AND LIQUIDITY

 

a.Bitfarms was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporation Act on October 11, 2018 and continued under the Ontario Corporations Business Act on August 27, 2021. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the corporation comprise the accounts of Bitfarms Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Company” or “Bitfarms”). The activities of the Company mainly consist of cryptocurrency mining and are divided into multiple jurisdictions described in Note 19 “Geographical Information”. The Company’s operations are predominantly in Canada and the United States, with new operations having commenced in Paraguay in 2022 and construction of a new facility having commenced in Argentina in 2021. 9159-9290 Quebec Inc. (“Volta”), a wholly owned subsidiary, assists the Company in building and maintaining its server farms and provides electrician services to both commercial and residential customers in Quebec.

 

The common shares of the Company are listed under the trading symbol BITF on the Nasdaq and TSX exchanges.

 

b.Bitfarms is primarily engaged in the cryptocurrency mining industry, a highly volatile market with significant inherent risk. Further declines in the market prices of cryptocurrencies, an increase in the difficulty of cryptocurrency mining, delays in the delivery of mining equipment, changes in the regulatory environment and adverse changes in other inherent risks can significantly and negatively impact the Company’s operations and cash flows, and its ability to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet its commitments and minimum collateral requirements for its revolving credit facility, as described in Note 8 and Note 10, respectively. In addition, adverse changes to the factors mentioned above may impact the recoverability of the Company’s digital assets and property, plant and equipment, resulting in impairment charges being recorded.

 

The Company’s current operating budget and future estimated cash flows for the twelve-month period, based on current BTC prices, indicate that it will generate positive cash flow from operations in excess of required interest and principal payments due on its long-term debt and credit facility. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company negotiated postponement of delivery and payment, without penalty, of certain Blockchain Verification and Validation Equipment (“BVVE”) to 2023 so as to avoid under-deployment of miners and to better align the receipt of miners with the availability of completed infrastructure to utilize the miners.

 

At current Bitcoin (“BTC”) prices, the Company’s existing cash resources and the proceeds from any sale of its treasury and mined BTC will not be sufficient to fund its capital investments to support its growth objectives. The Company would be required to raise additional funds from external sources to meet these requirements if the BTC price does not increase. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise such additional funds on acceptable terms, if at all.

 

If the Company raises additional funds by issuing securities, existing shareholders may be diluted. If the Company were unable to obtain such financing, or if funds from operations and proceeds from any sale of the Company’s BTC holdings continue to be negatively impacted by the BTC price, the Company will have difficulty meeting its payment obligations which could result in the loss of equipment prepayments and deposits paid by the Company under its purchase agreements and be subject to remedial legal measures taken against the Company. Such measures could include damages and forced continuance of the contractual arrangements. Under these circumstances, the Company’s growth plans and ongoing operations could be adversely impacted.

NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY AND LIQUIDITY (Continued)

 

c.In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The potential impacts that COVID-19 may have on the Company in the future include increases in cryptocurrency price volatility and delays in receiving future orders of mining hardware and construction materials required to achieve the Company’s growth objectives. The Company has been, and is expected to continue to be, operating throughout the pandemic. No significant impact of COVID-19 has been observed on the Company’s existing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022. However, the Company has observed longer than usual lead times and greater price fluctuations than usual in procuring mining equipment and construction materials required for the Company’s growth objectives. It is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments as well as their impact on the financial results and position of the Company and its operating subsidiaries in future periods.

a.These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on August 12, 2022.

 

b.The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared following the same accounting policies used in the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

The accounting policies have been applied consistently by the Company’s entities and to all periods presented in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise indicated.

 

NOTE 3: BUSINESS COMBINATION

 

On November 9, 2021, the Company acquired a cryptocurrency mining facility in Washington state through its wholly owned subsidiary, Backbone Mining Solutions LLC, comprising land, buildings, 17 megawatts of electrical infrastructure, power purchase agreements totaling 12 megawatts and in process power purchase agreement applications totaling 12 megawatts with a local hydro-electric utility producer. The consideration transferred was $26,676, including $23,000 of cash consideration and 414,508 Common shares with a value of $3,676 on the closing date. The seller entered into a consulting agreement with the Company in the amount of $2,000 for services relating to the operation of the facility. The Company also entered into a one-year lease agreement with the seller for a 5 megawatt cryptocurrency mining facility with monthly payments of $110.

 

The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company’s energy portfolio with existing infrastructure to accommodate the Company’s expected delivery schedule of mining equipment.

(In thousands of U.S. dollars, except for data relating to quantity of PPE, shares, warrants and digital assets)

 

NOTE 3: BUSINESS COMBINATION (Continued)

 

The following are the fair values of the identifiable assets of the date of the acquisition:

 

   November 9, 
   2021 
Consideration transferred    
Cash paid at closing  $23,000 
Value of 414,508 common shares transferred at closing   3,676 
Fair value of total consideration transferred  $26,676 
      
Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired     
Electrical components  $5,954 
Buildings   748 
Land   74 
Intangible assets - favorable lease   2,000 
Total identifiable assets acquired  $8,776 
Goodwill  $17,900 

 

Goodwill consists mainly of the benefit the Company expects to receive from acquiring a turnkey facility with active power purchase agreements compared to the timeline and process the Company would undertake to procure new power purchase agreements, the materials and equipment required to build a facility and complete the construction process in order to increase the Company’s share of the BTC network hashrate. The entire amount of goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

 

The total assets recognized in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 were based on a provisional assessment of their fair value while the Company completed their valuation with the assistance of independent valuators for the electrical components acquired. The valuation had not been finalized by the date at which the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors.

 

In May 2022, the valuation was finalized, resulting in measurement period adjustments. The acquisition date fair value of the electrical components was $5,954, a decrease of $1,127 compared to the provisional value. In addition, the fair value at the acquisition date of buildings decreased by $7, land decreased by $11 and intangible assets (favourable lease) increased by $200. The cumulative impact of these measurement period adjustments was recognized in the interim financial statement as at and for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The impact on the prior period was considered insignificant. As a result, there was a corresponding increase in goodwill of $945, resulting in $17,900 of total goodwill arising from the acquisition.

 

The Company generated $7,690 and $17,069 of revenues mainly from using the S19j pros installed at the Washington state facility, from November 9, 2021 to December 31, 2021. Prior to the acquisition, the Company incurred hosting fees of $3,907 during the year ended December 31, 2021.

NOTE 3: BUSINESS COMBINATION (Continued)

 

Impairment of goodwill

 

As at June 30, 2022, as a result of the decline in the BTC price during the quarter, the Company performed an evaluation of the recoverable amount of the property, plant and equipment and intangible assets for the Washington state cryptocurrency mining facility. As these groups of assets do not generate cash inflows that are independent of each other, the recoverable amount was calculated for the cash-generating unit (“CGU”) comprised of the assets of BVVE and electrical equipment, long-term electricity deposits, land, building and favourable lease used in the cryptocurrency mining facility in Washington state.

 

Based on its calculation, the Company recorded an impairment loss on its Washington state cryptocurrency mining CGU resulting in an impairment charge to goodwill of $17,900. The impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss under Impairment on goodwill. The value in use of the CGU was determined based on the present value of the expected cash flows over a four-year period discounted at an annual pre-tax rate of 24.75% in varying scenarios. 

The key assumptions used in the value in use calculation are as follows:

 

Revenues – Two optimistic and two pessimistic scenarios and one status quo scenario, each with estimated future BTC price and network difficulty, were used to project revenues and associated cash flows from cryptocurrency mining. Management assigned probabilities to each scenario to calculate weighted average expected outcomes. The weighted average daily revenue per Terahash used in the value in use calculation was $0.12/Terahash.

 

Discount rate – The discount rate reflects management’s assumptions regarding the unit’s specific risk. The pre-tax discount rate used was estimated at 24.75%, with some of the risk already being implicitly reflected through management’s allocation of probabilities to the various scenarios included in the revenue calculation.

 

Energy prices – Management estimates that energy prices for the duration of the forecasted years will be approximately $0.027 per kilowatt hour.

 

Terminal value – Management estimated the terminal value of the miners included in the CGU for the purposes of the impairment testing to be the daily revenue per Terahash in effect at the end of the value in use calculation multiplied by the ending hashrate for a period of approximately 6 months.

 

Changes in BTC price and BTC network difficulty that can lead to changes in expected revenues were considered in the various scenarios listed above. A decrease of 1% in revenues and an increase of one percentage point in the discount rate would result in impairment on the other assets of the CGU by $394 and $1,040, respectively. A sensitivity analysis was not performed for a change in energy prices as they are considered to be stable.

NOTE 6: PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (Continued)

 

b.Assets held for sale

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company ceased using its Antminer S9 miners and has plans to dispose of them within the next 12 months. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, 3,982 Antimer S9 miners with a carrying amount of $779 were disposed for net proceeds of $101 resulting in a loss of $678. Management determined that the Antminer S9 miners continue to meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale as at June 30, 2022.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company ceased using Innosilicon T2T miners, Canaan Avalon A10 miners, Antminer T15 miners and Antminer S15 miners with plans to dispose of them within the next 12 months. Management has determined that these miners meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale and determined that the carrying amount was less than their estimated fair value less costs to sell.

 

In addition, the Company had an agreement to sell 600 Whatsminer M20s miners. As of June 30 2022, the Company received proceeds in advance for 492 of the 600 Whatsminer M20s miners. The proceeds received of $468 were recorded as deferred revenue included in trade payables and accrued liabilities as the miners were not shipped before June 30, 2022.

 

c.Impairment testing

 

As at June 30, 2022, as a result of the decline in the BTC price during the quarter, the Company performed an evaluation of the recoverable amount of the property, plant and equipment for the cryptocurrency mining facilities in Quebec. As these groups of assets do not generate cash inflows that are independent of each other, the recoverable amount was calculated for the CGU comprised of the property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets and long-term electricity deposits used in the cryptocurrency mining facilities in Quebec.

 

Based on its calculation, the Company determined that no impairment charge should be recorded on its Quebec cryptocurrency mining CGU. The value in use of the CGU was determined based on the present value of the expected cash flows over a five-year period discounted at an annual pre-tax rate of 23.75% in varying scenarios.

 

The key assumptions used in the value in use calculation are as follows:

 

Revenues – Two optimistic and two pessimistic scenarios and one status quo scenario, each with estimated future BTC price and network difficulty, were used to project revenues and associated cash flows from cryptocurrency mining. Management assigned probabilities to each scenario to calculate weighted average expected outcomes. The weighted average daily revenue per Terahash used in the value in use calculation was $0.12/Terahash.

 

Discount rate – The discount rate reflects management’s assumptions regarding the unit’s specific risk. The discount pre-tax rate used was estimated at 23.75%, with some of the risk already being implicitly reflected through management’s allocation of probabilities to the various scenarios included in the revenue calculation.

 

Energy prices – Management estimates that energy prices for the duration of the forecasted years will be approximately $0.048 per kilowatt hour.

NOTE 6: PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (Continued)

 

Terminal value – Management estimated the terminal value of the miners included in the CGU for the purposes of the impairment testing to be the daily revenue per Terahash in effect at the end of the value in use calculation multiplied by the ending hashrate for a period of approximately 6 months.

 

Management conducted a sensitivity analysis and determined that a reasonable fluctuation in any of the key assumptions would not result in an impairment charge.

**

The Company has deposits on BVVE and electrical components in the amount of $75,284, mainly for outstanding orders placed consisting of 48,000 Whatsminer miners with expected delivery in 2022 and the first nine months of 2023. In addition, the Company has deposits for construction work and materials in the amount of $22,714, mainly for the Argentina expansion. The Company is exposed to counterparty risk through the significant deposits it places with suppliers of mining hardware to secure orders and delivery dates as well as deposits it places with construction companies and suppliers of electrical components and construction materials. The risk of a supplier failing to meet its contractual obligations may result in late deliveries or long-term deposits and equipment and construction prepayments that are not realized. The Company attempts to mitigate this risk by procuring mining hardware from larger, more established suppliers and with whom the Company has existing relationships and knowledge of their reputation in the market as well as insuring deposits placed for construction work and materials.

Revolving credit facility  $38,154   $60,000 
Interest payable on revolving credit facility   626    2 
   $38,780   $60,002 

 

On December 30, 2021, the Company entered into a secured revolving credit facility up to $100,000 (the “Credit Facility” or the “Facility”) for a term of 6 months with Galaxy Digital LLC (the “Facility Lender”). The Credit Facility bears interest at a rate of 10.75% per annum with a commitment fee of 0.75% per annum charged on the unused portion of the $100,000 Facility.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company drew an additional $40,000 on the Credit Facility, bringing the total amount drawn to $100,000 as of March 31, 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repaid $61,846 of the Credit Facility, bringing the total amount drawn to $38,154 as of June 30, 2022.

 

On June 30, 2022, the Company amended its Credit Facility and extended its maturity date to October 1, 2022. Under the new terms, the maximum limit of the amended Facility is $40,000, bears interest at 11.25% per annum and has a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum charged on the unused portion of the Facility. The amended Facility also includes a provision which allows the Company to repay up to $15,000 of the Facility prior to July 30, 2022, without incurring any prepayment penalty.

 

The Facility is secured by BTC, with the minimum value of BTC pledged as collateral calculated as 143% of the amount borrowed. The Company is required to contribute additional collateral to the Facility Lender any time the value of the BTC pledged as collateral is below 133% of the amount borrowed. The Company also has the right to require the Facility Lender to return any BTC when the value of the BTC pledged as collateral exceeds 143% of the amount borrowed. A substantial decrease in BTC price may result in the Company being unable to meet the minimum BTC collateral requirements, which could result in the disposition of the Company’s BTC pledged as collateral by the Facility Lender, or repayment of the Facility in fiat currency on demand. The Company is exposed to counterparty risk as it is reliant on the Facility Lender to return the BTC collateral upon extinguishment of the Credit Facility. The Facility Lender cannot rehypothecate the BTC collateral except during an event of default.

 

The Credit Facility contains an affirmative covenant where the ending balance of the Company’s net asset value, defined as the total value of all assets minus any liabilities divided by the number of outstanding shares in any calendar month, cannot decline by:

 

a.

25% or more compared to the previous month;

b.50% or more compared to three months ago; or
c.50% or more compared to any calendar month in the immediately preceding calendar year.

 

As of July 31, 2022, the most recently completed calendar month, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants described above.

 

The Company pledged 2,598 BTC as collateral with a fair market value of $51,403 as of June 30, 2022. The pledged BTC is held in a segregated Coinbase Custody account owned by the Facility Lender.

NOTE 13: INCOME TAXES

 

a.Deferred taxes

 

Deferred taxes are computed at a tax rate of 26.5% based on tax rates expected to apply at the time of realization. Deferred taxes relate primarily to the timing differences on recognition of expenses relating to the depreciation of fixed assets, loss carryforwards and professional fees relating to the Company’s equity activity that are recorded as a reduction of equity.

 

As at June 30, 2022, the recoverability of the net deferred tax asset, due to the impact of the decrease in BTC prices as described in Note 1b, was uncertain and as a result, the net deferred tax asset of $20,580 was not recognized. The Company will evaluate the likelihood of recoverability at each balance sheet date, and will recognize net deferred tax asset when and if appropriate.

*During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company has continued to fund its expansion in Argentina through the acquisition of marketable securities and in-kind contribution of these securities to a subsidiary in Argentina that it controls. The subsequent disposition of these marketable securities in exchange for Argentine Pesos gave rise to a gain as the amount received in ARS exceeds the amount of ARS the Company would have received from a direct foreign currency exchange.

 

**

The majority of Argentine VAT is not expected to be settled within the next 12 months and therefore, it has been classified as a long-term receivable in Note 8 with the short-term portion being included in sales tax receivable in note 4. The Company has recorded a provision on this VAT receivable, which is classified within net financial expenses (income) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Historically, ARS has devalued significantly when compared to USD due to high levels of inflation in Argentina, which may result in the Company recording future foreign exchange losses on its Argentina VAT receivable.

 

d.Earnings per share:

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, potentially dilutive securities have not been included in the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because their effect is antidilutive. The additional potentially dilutive securities that would have been included in the calculation for diluted earnings per share had their effect not been anti-dilutive, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, would have been approximately 205,416,844 and 202,728,920, respectively (June 30, 2021: 17,677,251 and 21,347,997, respectively).
