CleanSpark Exceeds 2022 Guidance Two Months Early, Achieving 5 EH/s; Raises Year-end Hashrate Guidance by 10%

LAS VEGAS, Oct. 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CleanSpark Inc. (Nasdaq: CLSK) (the “Company”), America’s Bitcoin Miner™, today announced its bitcoin mining hashrate has exceeded 5 EH/s, increasing 150% since January 2022. 

With the new milestone, CleanSpark has surpassed its year-end guidance over 60 days ahead of schedule and is raising its year-end hashrate guidance 10%, to 5.5 EH/s. Hashrate, the computing power available for processing transactions and securing the bitcoin blockchain, is one of the most critical metrics for evaluating public bitcoin mining companies. It determines how much bitcoin a company mines. 

“Our hashrate growth over the last few months has been helped along with the acquisition of the Washington and Sandersville facilities, but that only tells part of the story,” said Zach Bradford, CEO. “This milestone reflects operational prowess and efficiency gains that I believe are unmatched in our industry. In a period where the sector is experiencing reversals in forward-looking expectations, we are bucking that trend. We’ve hit our previously stated year-end guidance 60 days early thanks to our excellent teams and we are thus able to raise our year-end guidance to 5.5 EH/s.”

The Company’s significant growth is rooted in sound capital management.

“The effective deployment of our capital strategy has allowed us to exceed hashrate expectations,” said Gary A. Vecchiarelli, CFO. “Crucial to that strategy has been our long-held commitment to selling a portion of the bitcoin we mine to fund growth and operations. As our hashrate has grown, the amount of bitcoin we produce has also grown, creating a virtuous cycle that has allowed us to seize opportunities for growth and expansion.”

CleanSpark has four owned and operated facilities, about 50,000 bitcoin mining machines operational, and a daily production high of 19.2 bitcoin. CleanSpark’s revised year-end guidance now sits at 5.5 EH/s. The Company expects to meet its 2023 year-end guidance of 22.4 EH/s, an achievement that would make it one of the largest publicly traded bitcoin miners in the world.
