North Tonawanda Power Plant Acquisition Update

The Company continues to move forward with closing documentation and approval requirements related to Digihost’s acquisition of a 60 MW power plant in North Tonawanda, NY (“NT”). Management anticipates this transaction will close in Q4 of 2022 providing the Company with additional computing capacity of approximately 1.04 EH based upon a power generation run rate of approximately 50 MW from the plant. When combined with Digihost’s current operations total computing capacity from the Company’s New York State (“NY”) operations is projected to be approximately 1.7 EH.

Alabama Site Build-Out

The Alabama Phase 1 build-out is continuing on schedule and on budget. Phase 1, scheduled for completion in Q4 of 2022, will provide the Company with 22 MW of power capacity resulting in additional mining capacity of approximately 550 PH. When combined with the projected mining capacity from the Company’s NY facilities, Digihost’s total computing power by the end of Q4 could reach approximately 2.25 EH.

Digihost is building the necessary infrastructure to provide the Alabama property with total power capacity of 55 MW, with the additional 33 MW (860 PH) projected to be operational by the end of the first quarter of 2023, resulting in total projected computing power available to the Company at that time of approximately 3.1 EH.

At-the-Market Financing Update

On March 4, 2022, the Company entered into an offering agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC as agent, pursuant to which the Company established an at-the-market equity program (the “ATM Program”). During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company issued 2,100 subordinate voting shares at an average share price of $1.1757, being all of the securities issued pursuant to the ATM Program from the commencement of the ATM Program through to the date hereof.

About Digihost

The Company has also assumed that no significant events occur outside of the Company's normal course of business.
