Frankfurt am Main – 04 November 2022 – Northern Data AG (XETRA: NB2, ISIN: DE000A0SMU87) today provided an update on its business activities in October 2022, reporting cash revenues from cryptocurrency sales of approximately EUR 4.8 million in October (BTC: EUR 4.4 million; other: EUR 0.4 million).

The company generated October YTD unaudited revenues of around EUR 184 million from the provisioning of computing capacity for crypto mining, infrastructure services and the sale of hardware. Northern Data generated 2,404 BTC from January to the end of October 2022 and corresponding revenues from Bitcoin mining of EUR 70.6 million.

The company plans to have between 3.5-4.0 EH/s and thus a total of 36,000-42,000 ASIC miners (excl. hosting) in operation by the end of 2022. Northern Data accordingly confirms its revenue guidance for fiscal year 2022 of EUR 200-250 million.

Aroosh Thillainathan, CEO and founder of Northern Data, commented, "In October, we commissioned new ASIC systems and increased Bitcoin computing power by increasing the utilization of our installed machines. Thanks to our energy procurement strategy - without the dependency on risky take-or-pay contracts - we were again able to ensure the profitability of our entire Bitcoin production in October. Consequently, we remain operationally competitive - unlike some of our competitors - at current Bitcoin prices. Moreover, since we have been debt-free since August 2022, we are not financially burdened by interest payments in the current environment, representing an advantage for Northern Data that secures our business model and guarantees strategic flexibility."
