Hut 8 Reports 66% Jump in Crypto Mining Revenue for 2019
- The company significantly expanded its operations last year.
Hut 8 Mining Corp, a publically listed crypto mining company, published its annual financials on Friday, showing total revenue of CAD 82 million ($58 million) - 66 percent jump from the previous year’s number.
Per the press release, the jump in the figures is primarily due to two major operational expansions - one is the launch of the company’s flagship facility in Medicine Hat, which became operational in mid-2018, and the second is the addition of 12 BlockBoxes which became operational in early 2019.
This, however, increased the operational cost of the company significantly, resulting in a mining profit margin of 45 percent, compared to the 50 percent profit margin a year before.
The Canadian company also reported CAD 33.5 million (almost $23.7 million) in adjusted EBITDA - an increase of 73 percent from the previous year’s CAD 19.3 million (around $13.65).
The results also revealed a total gain of CAD 4.3 million ($3.04 million) for last year, while for the previous year, the company reported a loss of CAD 17.9 million (around $12.66 million).
Impressive figures for the year
