EASTON, Md., March 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TeraWulf Inc. (Nasdaq: WULF) (“TeraWulf” or the “Company”), which owns and operates vertically integrated, domestic bitcoin mining facilities powered by more than 95% zero-carbon energy, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.
Management Commentary
“In addition to our outstanding financial achievements in 2023, attributable to the unwavering dedication and hard work of our team, TeraWulf has made significant strides towards our financial and operational objectives. These include proactive debt reduction, rapid expansion of our organic infrastructure, and a steadfast commitment to financial transparency," commented Paul Prager, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of TeraWulf. "Moreover, given the premium on available digital infrastructure, our current facilities offer substantial room for expansion, positioning us to deliver even greater value. Our strategic plan entails reaching operational capacity of 300 MW by the close of 2024 and scaling up to 550 MW by the conclusion of 2025.”
Patrick Fleury, TeraWulf’s Chief Financial Officer added, “In 2023, TeraWulf demonstrated exceptional operational performance and expansive growth, resulting in record levels of revenue and profitability, as demonstrated by both GAAP and non-GAAP metrics. With an industry-leading 3.2 cents per kilowatt hour cost of power, we also achieved a substantial reduction in our debt of $40 million in the aggregate as of February 29, 2024, significantly bolstering our financial standing. As of the end of February, our balance sheet reflects a fortified financial foundation, with $49 million in cash and cash equivalents and bitcoin. This substantial reduction in debt and enhanced liquidity position underscores TeraWulf's resolute commitment to prudent financial management, positioning us even more securely to capitalize on future opportunities with confidence.”
“As we look ahead, we're excited to leverage our highly efficient and cost-effective infrastructure to significantly expand hash rate at our top tier sites,” added Nazar Khan, Chief Operating Officer of TeraWulf. “Additionally, we're actively pursuing opportunities to optimize the utilization of our proprietary infrastructure and unlock additional value, including the assessment of advanced AI and HPC applications.”
Full Year 2023 Operational and Financial Highlights
Key financial and operational highlights for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 include:
- Revenue increased 360% to $69.2 million in 2023, as compared to $15.0 million in fiscal 2022 driven by increased bitcoin production and higher average realized bitcoin prices during the period.
- Gross profit increased 960% to $41.9 million in 2023, as compared to $4.0 million in fiscal 2022.
- Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased by $64.9 million to $30.7 million in 2023, as compared to $(34.2) million in fiscal 2022.
- Reported cash and cash equivalents of $54.4 million as of December 31, 2023, as compared to $1.3 million at fiscal year-end 2022.
- Net debt¹ at fiscal year-end 2023 declined 41% to $84.9 million, as compared to $144.7 million at fiscal year-end 2022. Net debt was reduced another 32% to $58.0 million as of February 29, 2024.
Additional non-GAAP metrics for fiscal year 2023, which include the impact of TeraWulf’s joint venture interest in the Nautilus Cryptomine facility², include:
- Self-mining operating capacity increased by 464% to 7.9 exahash per second (“EH/s”) as of December 31, 2023, as compared to 1.4 EH/s as of December 31, 2022.
- Self-mined bitcoin production increased 550% to 3,407 in 2023, as compared to 524 in fiscal 2022.
- Power cost averaged $8,676 per bitcoin self-mined, or approximately $0.032/kWh in 2023.
___________________________________
¹ Net debt calculated as the outstanding principal balance of the Company’s term loan less cash and cash equivalents.
² The Company’s share of the earnings or losses from operations at the Nautilus Cryptomine facility is reflected within “Equity in net loss of investee, net of tax” in the consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, operating results of the Nautilus Cryptomine facility are not reflected in revenue, cost of revenue or cost of operations lines in TeraWulf’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses these metrics as indictors of operational progress and effectiveness and believes they are useful to investors for the same purposes and to provide comparisons to peer companies.
Hash Rate Growth
In the fiscal year 2023, TeraWulf experienced significant growth, with its self-mining operating capacity reaching 7.9 EH/s by year-end, representing a more than quadruple increase from the 1.4 EH/s recorded at the end of 2022. As of February 29, 2024, the Company had a self-mining hash rate of 7.5 EH/s, with a fleet of approximately 64,500 miners deployed. Among these, 48,500 miners are operating at the Lake Mariner facility, while the Nautilus Cryptomine facility houses around 16,000 of the Company’s miners.
Further expansion is ongoing at the wholly owned Lake Mariner facility which is fueled by 93% zero-carbon power, with the construction of Building 4 entering its final phase. This incremental infrastructure is expected to contribute an additional 35 MW of capacity, raising TeraWulf’s total operational mining capacity across both sites to approximately 10 EH/s.
With considerable room for expansion within its existing facilities, the Company reaffirms its commitment to achieving an operational infrastructure capacity of 300 MW by the end of 2024. Additionally, it endeavors to deploy 550 MW, equivalent to approximately 28.3 EH/s, utilizing the current generation of miners by 2025. Continuously evaluating the most profitable utilization of its energy and digital infrastructure, the Company is actively exploring potential applications of High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Fiscal Year 2023 Financial Results
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased 360% to $69.2 million compared to $15.0 million in fiscal 2022. The increase in revenue is attributable to a 550% increase in bitcoin production year-over-year following the energization of Building 2 (50 MW) in June. Building 3 (45 MW) was subsequently completed in December, bringing online capacity at the Lake Mariner facility to 160 MW.
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $41.9 million (61% of revenue), as compared to $4.0 million (26% of revenue) for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $37.9 million (or 961%) resulting from the aforementioned increase in operational capacity.
Cost of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 totaled $71.3 million, as compared to $47.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase in cost of operations was primarily driven by higher depreciation expense due to the increase in mining operations at the Lake Mariner facility in 2023.
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $30.7 million, as compared to a loss of $34.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2023, and February 29, 2024, the Company held $56.2 million and $49.1 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents and bitcoin on its balance sheet. As of the same periods, the Company had outstanding indebtedness of approximately $139.4 million and $106.0 million, respectively. The Company anticipates an additional repayment of approximately $30.0 million during the first week of April, thereby reducing the debt balance to $76.0 million.
Investor Conference Call and Webcast
As previously announced, TeraWulf will host its fourth quarter and full year 2023 earnings call and business update for investors today, Tuesday, March 19, 2024, commencing at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Pacific Time).

Non-GAAP Measures
We have not provided reconciliations of preliminary and projected Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measure of net income/(loss) to common shareholders. Providing net income/(loss) to common shareholders guidance is potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event-driven transactional and other non-core operating items that are included in net income/(loss) to common shareholders, including but not limited to asset impairments and income tax valuation adjustments. Reconciliations of this non-GAAP measure with the most comparable GAAP measure for historical periods is indicative of the reconciliations that will be prepared upon completion of the periods covered by the non-GAAP guidance. Please reference the “Non-GAAP financial information” accompanying our quarterly earnings conference call presentations on our website at www.terawulf.com/investors for our GAAP results and the reconciliations of these measures, where used, to the comparable GAAP measures.

Non-GAAP Measure
The Company presents adjusted EBITDA, which is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company’s non-GAAP “Adjusted EBITDA” excludes (i) impacts of interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; (ii) preferred stock dividends, stock-based compensation expense and related party expense to be settled with respect to common stock, all of which are non-cash items that the Company believes are not reflective of its general business performance, and for which the accounting requires management judgment, and the resulting expenses could vary significantly in comparison to other companies; (iii) equity in net loss of investee, net of tax, related to Nautilus; (iv) costs related to non-routine regulatory activities, which costs management does not believe are reflective of the Company’s ongoing operating activities; (v) other income which is related to interest income or income for which management believes is not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operating activities; and (vi) gains and losses related to discontinued operations that are not be applicable to the Company’s future business activities. The Company’s non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA also includes the impact of distributions from investee received in bitcoin related to a return on the Nautilus investment, which management believes, in conjunction with excluding the impact of equity in net loss of investee, net of tax, is reflective of assets available for the Company’s use in its ongoing operations as a result of its investment in Nautilus.
Management believes that providing this non-GAAP financial measure that excludes these items allows for meaningful comparisons between the Company's core business operating results and those of other companies, and provides the Company with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating its own core business operating results over different periods of time. In addition to management's internal use of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, management believes that adjusted EBITDA is also useful to investors and analysts in comparing the Company’s performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis. Management believes the foregoing to be the case even though some of the excluded items involve cash outlays and some of them recur on a regular basis (although management does not believe any of such items are normal operating expenses necessary to generate the Company’s bitcoin related revenues). For example, the Company expects that share-based compensation expense, which is excluded from adjusted EBITDA, will continue to be a significant recurring expense over the coming years and is an important part of the compensation provided to certain employees, officers, directors and consultants. Additionally, management does not consider any of the excluded items to be expenses necessary to generate the Company’s bitcoin related revenue.
The Company's adjusted EBITDA measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures provided by other companies in the Company’s industry, as other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently. The Company's adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating (loss) income or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. Although management utilizes internally and presents adjusted EBITDA, the Company only utilizes that measure supplementally and does not consider it to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial results. Accordingly, adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be considered in isolation of, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following table is a reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure (i.e., net loss attributable to common stockholders) for the periods indicated (in thousands):
