Operations Update
Presently, Digihost’s consolidated operating capacity across its three sites represents approximately 100MW of available power, and Digihost is mining at a hash rate of 3 EH/s. The Company experienced significant growth within its colocation services segment, which now serves as the Company’s largest revenue segment. During the quarter, the Company completed maintenance at its flagship North Tonawanda power plant to increase long-term efficiency. The Company expects to bring the plant back to full operational power in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Outlook
Digihost remains focused on expanding its power portfolio and maximizing the optimal use of its energy resources. The Company has now produced more revenue year-over-year through its colocation services than digital mining, and it expects to continue to expand the portion of its revenue from colocation services in the future. Through colocation with some of the world’s largest mining companies, the Company will have access to the latest generation of miners, retaining its cutting-edge efficiency and low cost of mining production without the downside associated with mining outright (e.g., significant capital expenditure outlay and accelerated depreciation). This strategy lets the Company focus its investment and assets upstream on power development and production. This strategy is designed to aid the Company in expanding its MW footprint significantly in 2025, with the goal of achieving an expected hash rate of 6-7 EH in 2026.
Simultaneously, with the growth of the Company’s power portfolio, the Company looks forward to converting portions of its existing asset base into tier-3 data center infrastructure in the coming months. Leveraging its established electrical infrastructure, regulatory expertise, and customer relationships, Digihost anticipates that this conversion will reduce both costs and timelines relative to industry standards, providing a distinct competitive edge.

Digihost is an innovative energy infrastructure company that develops cutting-edge data centers to drive the expansion of sustainable energy assets.
