LM Funding America, Inc. Reports Financial Results and Provides Business Update for the Second Quarter of 2024

Mined 44.1 Bitcoins in Q2 2024 Valued at Approximately $2.9 Million at an Average Market Revenue Value of Approximately $66,000 per Bitcoin

Held 160.4 Bitcoin at June 30, 2024, Valued at Approximately $10.0 Million Based on Bitcoin Price of $62,500

Reports Working Capital of Approximately $8.4 Million as of June 30, 2024

Conference Call to Be Held Today at 11:00 am ET

TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LM Funding America, Inc. (NASDAQ: LMFA) ("LM Funding" or the "Company"), a cryptocurrency mining and technology-based specialty finance company, today provided a business update and reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

Operational Highlights

  • Bitcoin Mining: Mined 44.1 Bitcoins in Q2 2024, generating approximately $2.9 million in revenue at an average Bitcoin price of $65,600.
  • Bitcoin Holdings: As of June 30, 2024, the Company held 160.4 Bitcoins valued at approximately $10.0 million.
  • Revenue Impact: Total revenue for the second quarter of 2024 was approximately $3.0 million, a decrease of $184 thousand from the same period last year, primarily due to the anticipated effects of the April 2024 Bitcoin halving event.
  • Net Loss: The net loss for the second quarter was $6.6 million compared to a net loss of $5.6 million for the comparable quarter in 2023.

Bruce Rodgers, Chairman and CEO of LM Funding, remarked, "The industry experienced a Bitcoin halving event in April, which resulted in a 50% reduction of the rewards that miners receive. Despite this transition, we successfully mined 44.1 Bitcoins valued at roughly $2.9 million. Fortunately, several unfavorable hosting contracts have now expired, and we are currently in the process of relocating our machines to cost effective mining sites including a potential 72 MW site in Texas that we have under LOI."

Strategic Developments

  • Hosting Facility Expansion: In collaboration with Arthur Mining Inc., LM Funding expanded a new 15 MW hosting facility near Oklahoma City, relocating about 3,000 Antminer S19j Pro machines. These machines are hosted at cost for ten months, significantly reducing operating expenses.
  • Future Growth with Texas Site: A Letter of Intent to acquire a hosting site in Texas with 12 MW of power and potential expansion of 60 MW to further optimize mining operations.
  • Expansion Funding: Completed a $5 million secured non-convertible loan facility, effective August 6, 2024. The proceeds from this facility will be dedicated to acquiring additional miners, further bolstering the Company's mining capabilities.

Richard Russell, CFO of LM Funding, stated, "We closed the quarter with approximately $10.2 million in cash and Bitcoin, and our working capital stood robust at $8.4 million. We are currently optimistic about the financial prospects of Bitcoin and our business outlook."

Financial Highlights

  • Revenue: Digital mining revenue decreased to $2.9 million in Q2 2024 from $3.0 million in Q2 2023, despite an increase in Bitcoin prices, due to reduced mined volume arising from the halving event and the repositioning of miners during the month of June.
  • Operating Expenses: Operating expenses rose to $7.8 million from $6.4 million year-on-year, due primarily to a $1.3 million loss in Bitcoin fair value and an increase in depreciation and amortization costs.
  • Net Loss: LM Funding reported a net loss attributable to shareholders of approximately $6.1 million, factoring in a $1.9 million unrealized loss on securities, compared to a $4.5 million loss in the prior year.
  • Core EBITDA: Core EBITDA loss widened to $2.2 million in Q2 2024 from $0.1 million in Q2 2023, although positive Core EBITDA for the first half of 2024 increased to $2.2 million due to expanded Bitcoin operations (Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, and a reconciliation of Core EBITDA to net loss can be found below).

Investor Conference Call

LM Funding will host a conference call today, August 15, 2024, at 11:00 A.M. Eastern Time to discuss the Company's financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, as well as the Company's corporate progress and other developments.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION (unaudited)
Our reported results are presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We also disclose Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") and Core Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization ("Core EBITDA") which adjusts for unrealized loss on investment and equity securities, unrealized gain on convertible debt securities, impairment loss on mined digital assets, impairment of intangible long-lived assets, impairment of prepaid hosting deposits, impairment of mining machine deposits and gain on adjustment of note receivable allowance and stock compensation expense and option expense, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they are widely accepted industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of Bitcoin miners.

The following tables reconcile net loss, which we believe is the most comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Core EBITDA:

Sondersituation: Vervielfachungschance bei diesen Goldaktien

Der Goldpreis haussiert und schwingt sich von Hoch zu Hoch. Getrieben von geopolitischen Unsicherheiten sowie der Aussicht auf eine lockere Geldpolitik der FED gehen Experten aktuell von weiter steigenden Notierungen bis sogar in den Bereich von 3.000 US-Dollar je Unze Gold aus.

Im Schatten des Basispreises notieren Goldproduzenten aus der zweiten Reihe sowie Explorationsunternehmen noch weit weg von ihren historischen Höchstständen entfernt und bieten dadurch erhebliches Aufholpotential.
