Key Performance Indicators

All monthly figures are unaudited and may include rounding and billing differences for cryptocurrency production (in particular, for hosting customers).

Frankfurt am Main – 13 March 2023 – Northern Data AG (XETRA: , ISIN: ) today provided an update on its crypto mining activities for the month of February. In the second month of 2023, a total of 214 bitcoin were generated. This represents a slight increase year-on-year (February 2022: 212 BTC) and is slightly below the previous month, taking into account that this was 3 days longer.

EUR 5.2 million in cash (+ 9% compared to the previous month) was generated from the sale of Bitcoins in February. Hosting has now been discontinued, as announced in the September 2022 Shareholder letter, as a result of recent low utilization.

The company had installed a self-mining hash rate of 3.48 EH/s and 37,587 ASIC systems on the Bitcoin network by the end of February 2023. In February, Northern Data optimized its last hosting agreement for 7,700 ASICs into a self-mining agreement of 7,700 more efficient ASIC machines (about 0.8 EH/s), expected to be executed in March 2023 bringing the available self-mining computing power to over 4 EH/s.

Northern Data still has around 7,000 new miners (approx. 0.7 EH/s) in stock, which it intends to deploy when an attractive opportunity arises.
