The earnings call presented a positive outlook with notable achievements in revenue growth, improved cash position, and significant debt reduction. However, challenges such as decreased hash rate and the impact of bitcoin halving on mining margins were also noted. Overall, the highlights significantly outweigh the lowlights.
Company Guidance
During the Argo Blockchain plc Q1 2024 earnings call, guidance was provided on several financial and operational metrics. The company reported generating approximately $17 million in revenue, marking a 4% increase from Q4 2023, partly driven by an elevated hash price. The cash on hand at the end of Q1 stood at $12.4 million, up from $7.4 million at the end of 2023, supported by an equity raise of nearly $10 million and the sale of the Mirabel facility for $6.1 million. These activities helped reduce debt owed to Galaxy by over $12 million. The company mined 319 bitcoin with a mining margin of 38%, up from 34% in the previous quarter. Direct cost per bitcoin mined was around $32,000. The hash rate saw a slight reduction from 2.8 to 2.7 exahash due to the decommissioning of older machines, though 2.4 exahash remains operational in Texas. Argo plans to continue economic curtailment during high power price periods and explore strategic growth opportunities, focusing on operational efficiency and clean energy initiatives.
