Digihost Technology Inc.

Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

(Expressed in United States Dollars) (Unaudited)

 

 

1.Nature of operations and going concern

 

Digihost Technology Inc. (the “Digihost”) was incorporated in British Columbia, Canada, on February 18, 2017 as Chortle Capital Corp and subsequently changed its name to HashChain Technology Inc. on September 18, 2017, and again to Digihost Technology Inc. on February 14, 2020. Digihost and its subsidiary (together the “Company”) is a blockchain technology company with operations in cryptocurrency mining. The head office of the Company is located at 1001 East Delavan Avenue, Buffalo, New York, 14215.

 

On February 14, 2020, a reverse takeover transaction (the “RTO Transaction”) between Digihost International, Inc. (“Old Digihost”) and HashChain Technology Inc. (“HashChain”) was completed (note 3). On completion of the RTO Transaction, Old Digihost was determined to be the accounting acquirer and accordingly, the financial statements are a continuation of the Old Digihost. In connection with completion of the RTO Transaction, HashChain has changed its name to “Digihost Technology Inc.”. The Company carried on the business of HashChain as a Tier 2 technology issuer under the symbol “DGHI”. Digihost subordinate voting shares were listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) February 20, 2020.

 

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company were reviewed, approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on May 19, 2021.

 

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) applicable to a going concern. Accordingly, they do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. It would, in this situation, be required to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities and commitments in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those in the accompanying financial statements. Such adjustments could be material.

 

As at March 31, 2021, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $5,409,570 (December 31, 2020 - $5,465,446). Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $72,957 (year ended December 31, 2020 - loss of $5,190,713). The Company had a working capital of $26,850,496 as at March 31, 2021 (December 31, 2020 - $1,650,708). These conditions raise material uncertainties which may cast doubt as to whether the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. Subsequent to the year-end, the Company closed a private placement of CAD$25 million (note 19).

 

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which presumes realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, namely its ability to generate sufficient cash resources to meet its obligations for at least twelve months from the end of the reporting period, is dependent upon its ability to arrange future financing, which is largely dependent upon prevailing capital market conditions, continued support of its shareholder base and achieving positive cash flows from operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in business. Such adjustments could be material.

 

2.Significant accounting policies

 

(a) Statement of compliance

 

The Company applies IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee. These unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements.

 

The policies applied in these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are based on IFRS issued and outstanding as of May 19, 2021, the date the Board of Directors approved the statements. The same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed in these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as compared with the most recent annual financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2019. Any subsequent changes to IFRS that are given effect in the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2020 could result in restatement of these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

(Expressed in United States Dollars) (Unaudited)

 

 

2.Significant accounting policies (continued)

 

(b) Standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards that are not yet effective and have not been adopted early by the Company.

 

At the date of authorization of these consolidated financial statements, several new, but not yet effective, standards and amendments to existing standards, and interpretations have been published by the IASB. None of these standards or amendments to existing standards have been adopted early by the Company. Management anticipates that all relevant pronouncements will be adopted for the first period beginning on or after the effective date of the pronouncement. New standards, amendments and interpretations not adopted in the current year have not been disclosed as they are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

(c) Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumption

 

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. These financial statements include estimates that, by their nature, are uncertain. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimate is revised and future years if the revision affects both current and future years. These estimates are based on historical experience, current and future economic conditions and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

 

Significant assumptions about the future that management has made that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:

 

Significant judgements

 

(i) Income from digital currency mining

 

The Company recognizes income from digital currency mining from the provision of transaction verification services within digital currency networks, commonly termed “cryptocurrency mining”. As consideration for these services, the Company receives digital currency from each specific network in which it participates (“coins”). Income from digital currency mining is measured based on the fair value of the coins received. The fair value is determined using the spot price of the coin on the date of receipt. The coins are recorded on the statement of financial position, as digital currencies, at their fair value less costs to sell and re- measured at each reporting date. Revaluation gains or losses, as well as gains or losses on the sale of coins for traditional (fiat) currencies are included in profit or loss in accordance with the Company’s treatment of its digital currencies as a traded commodity.

 

There is currently no specific definitive guidance in IFRS or alternative accounting frameworks for the accounting for the mining and strategic selling of digital currencies and management has exercised significant judgement in determining appropriate accounting treatment for the recognition of income from digital currency mining for mining of digital currencies. Management has examined various factors surrounding the substance of the Company’s operations, including the stage of completion being the completion and addition of a block to a blockchain and the reliability of the measurement of the digital currency received.

2.Significant accounting policies (continued)

 

(c) Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumption (continued)

 

Significant judgements (continued)

 

(ii) Business combination

 

Management uses judgement to determines whether assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. A business consists of inputs and processes applied to those inputs that have the ability to create outputs.

 

The Company completed the RTO Transaction in February 2020 (note 3) and concluded that the entity acquired did qualify as a business combination under IFRS 3, “Business Combinations”, as significant processes were acquired. Accordingly, the RTO Transaction has been accounted for as a business combination.

 

(iii) Going concern

 

The assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern involves judgment regarding future funding available for its operations and working capital requirements as discussed in note 1.

 

(iv) Leases – incremental borrowing rate

 

Judgment is applied when determining the incremental borrowing rate used to measure the lease liability of each lease contract, including an estimate of the asset-specific security impact. The incremental borrowing rate should reflect the interest rate the Company would pay to borrow at a similar term and with similar security.

 

(v) Income, value added, withholding and other taxes

 

The Company is subject to income, value added, withholding and other taxes. Significant judgment is required in determining the Company’s provisions for taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Company recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. The determination of the Company’s income, value added, withholding and other tax liabilities requires interpretation of complex laws and regulations. The Company’s interpretation of taxation law as applied to transactions and activities may not coincide with the interpretation of the tax authorities. All tax related filings are subject to government audit and potential reassessment subsequent to the financial statement reporting period. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the tax related accruals and deferred income tax provisions in the year in which such determination is made.

 

Significant estimates

 

(i) Determination of asset and liability fair values and allocation of purchase consideration

 

Significant business combinations require judgements and estimates to be made at the date of acquisition in relation to determining the relative fair value of the allocation of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the assets. The information necessary to measure the fair values as at the acquisition date of assets acquired requires management to make certain judgements and estimates about future events, including but not limited to availability of hardware and expertise, future production opportunities, future digital currency prices and future operating costs.

 

(ii) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

 

Depreciation of data miners and equipment are an estimate of its expected life. In order to determine the useful life of computing equipment, assumptions are required about a range of computing industry market and economic factors, including required hashrates, technological changes, availability of hardware and other inputs, and production costs.

(c) Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumption (continued)

 

Significant estimates (continued)

 

(iii) Digital currency valuation

 

Digital currencies consist of cryptocurrency denominated assets (note 4) and are included in current assets. Digital currencies are carried at their fair value determined by the spot rate less costs to sell. The digital currency market is still a new market and is highly volatile; historical prices are not necessarily indicative of future value; a significant change in the market prices for digital currencies would have a significant impact on the Company’s earnings and financial position.

 

(iv) Impairment of goodwill

 

Goodwill is tested for impairment if there is an indicator of impairment and annually for all CGUs with goodwill. The Company considers both external and internal sources of information for indications that goodwill is impaired. External sources of information we consider include changes in the market and economic and legal environment in which the CGU operates that are not within its control and affect the recoverable amount of goodwill. Internal sources of information considered include the strategic plans for the Company including estimates of revenue and other indications of economic performance of the assets.

 

3.Reverse takeover

 

On February 14, 2020, there was a RTO Transaction between Old Digihost and HashChain. In connection with completion of the RTO Transaction, HashChain acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of Old Digihost in exchange for 29,820,000 subordinate voting shares of the Company. In substance, the transaction involves Old Digihost shareholders obtaining control of the Company; accordingly, the transaction is considered to be a reverse acquisition transaction under which Old Digihost is identified as the accounting acquirer.

 

At the time of the transaction, HashChain had operations in cryptocurrency mining and met the definition of a business, and the transaction was accordingly considered a business combination. The purpose of the RTO Transaction was to acquire the operations of HashChain and to obtain listing on a public exchange. The transaction costs associated with this RTO Transaction was $59,149.

 

As Old Digihost was deemed to be the acquirer for accounting purposes, these consolidated financial statements present the historical financial information to the date of the Transaction are those of Old Digihost presented as a continuation of Old Digihost.

 

Pursuant to the business combination transaction, the net assets acquired from the acquisition are to be recorded at their estimated fair values in accordance with IFRS 3. The allocation of the purchase consideration is as follows:

 

Consideration    
Fair value of 6,530,560 subordinate voting shares of Hashchain (1)  $2,957,458 
      
Net assets acquired     
Property, plant and equipment  $2,244,509 
Accounts payable and other payables   (576,957)
    1,667,552 
Goodwill acquired (2)   1,289,906 
   $2,957,458

3.Reverse takeover (continued)

 

(1) The common shares issued were valued based on the HashChain closing price of CAD$0.60 on the TSXV on February 14, 2020.

 

(2) The goodwill acquired from the RTO Transaction is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to arise from vertical integration of the cryptocurrency mining operations which is the only segment of the Company.

 

4.Digital currencies

 

The Company’s holdings of digital currencies consist of the following:

For the realization of its impairment test, management has used the approach of fair value less costs to sell. The fair value is derived from the market capitalization of the Company as March 31, 2021 and management determined that the fair value less cost of sales, was higher than the carrying value of the CGU. Following this analysis, management has determined that no impairment was necessary. For these tests, the Company allocates all of its goodwill to a single CGU, the Company as a whole, since this is the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal purposes.

(ii) On May 12, 2021, the Company announced that it had signed a definitive purchase agreement to acquire approximately 10,000 of the most technologically advanced, high-performance Bitcoin miners that will increase the Company’s current hashrate by approximately 925PH to 1.145EH, with delivery of the miners to occur between August and December of this year.

 

The miners have been sourced from Northern Data AG, a leading infrastructure supplier for BTC mining and other high-performance computing infrastructure solutions, and the Company is funding the purchase of the miners with capital from its equity financings closed since the beginning of 2021 of approximately CAD$54,000,000.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company has concurrently entered into a hosting agreement with Northern Data in connection with the miners, whereby Northern Data will provide services to the Company including the installation and hosting of the miners in proprietary pre-manufactured performance optimized mobile data centers to be located at Digihost’s company-owned facility. Both parties are in advanced discussions to expand the purchase agreement beyond the initial 10,000 miners up to a total of 30,000 miners, giving Digihost the potential to increase its current hashrate to approximately 3.0EH.
