Bitcoin Miner Bitdeer (NASDAQ: BTDR) Grows Q2 Revenue Amid Volatile Market Backdrop

Benzinga

By Gerelyn Terzo, Benzinga Bitdeer’s R&D run rate continues to hover in the range of $5 million-$6 million as the company moves ahead on the optimization of its SEALMINER technology series and upgrades at its global datacenter facilities. Bitcoin miner Bitdeer Technologies Group (NASDAQ: BTDR), which is behind the SEALMINER application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) technology, has reported its Q2 2024 financial results. Bitdeer seems to have held its own against a challenging mining backdrop, owing to difficult broader market conditions in the wake of the Bitcoin mining halving event. After reaching an all-time high of over $73,000 in March, the Bitcoin price has pulled back, but remains up 133% over the past 12-month stretch. Bitdeer’s performance seems to be resilient, generating year-over-year growth across its revenue, gross profit and adjusted EBITDA, despite also suffering a net loss. Among the quarterly highlights, the Singapore-based blockchain company’s total revenue came in slightly below $100 million, up roughly 6% compared with year-ago results of $93.8 million. Performance was driven largely by Bitdeer’s self-mining division, the revenue for which nearly doubled to $41.6 million compared with $21.6 million in the year-ago period. Bitdeer’s proprietary self-hosted business mined 628 Bitcoins during the quarter. The company generally sells those Bitcoins for cash shortly after mining them. Self-mining revenue drivers were two-pronged, comprising a soaring self-mining hashrate, which reflects total computing power, to 7.3 EH/s from 3.8 EH/s in its Bhutan mining datacenter as well as a bullish Bitcoin price. The Bhutan facility became operational in H2 2023. Bitdeer’s cloud hash rate revenue declined by a sharp 33% in the quarter, owing to broader market conditions leading to changes in the amount of active orders and a drop in electricity subscriptions amid lower margins caused by the Bitcoin halving event in April. The Bitcoin halving had a domino effect, causing the temporary shutdown of hosting mining rigs and pressuring general hosting revenue. However, it is important to note that any hash rate allocated to cloud mining rolls into self mining when these contracts roll off. Bitdeer remains profitable on an adjusted EBITDA basis, with that metric coming in at $24.9 million and representing a 25% increase compared to year-ago levels. Its Q2 gross profit came in at $24.4 million, ballooning 50% higher compared with $16.2 million in the year-ago period. However, Bitdeer continues to operate at a net loss, which amounted to $17.7 million in the quarter compared with a $40.4 million net loss in the year-ago quarter. The most recent net loss was associated with a non-cash expense of the fair value change for warrants on stablecoin company Tether, with which Bitdeer partnered for a private placement financing earlier this year. Those warrants could still be converted to equity, thereby offsetting any liabilities. Graphic Source: Bitdeer on LinkedIn Bitdeer ended the quarter with nearly $204 million in cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet, including close to $25 million in cryptocurrency. The company operates in a capex-heavy industry, directing $17.5 million into its products and mining machines during the quarter. As its ASIC chip and machine production continues to ramp up, Bitdeer may be able to offset these investments while continuing to grow revenue. Of the Q2 performance, Bitdeer Chief Business Officer Matt Kong stated, “We achieved these results despite significant growth in the global network hashrate and the April 2024 halving. This demonstrates the strength of our differentiated strategy, underpinned by Bitdeer’s commitment to technology and innovation.” Bitdeer’s Operations And Outlook Bitdeer has several datacenter projects under development across the United States, Norway and Bhutan, all of which the company says remain on track. It has set its sights on expansion and expects these projects will support its growth for the foreseeable future. In its power and data center infrastructure business, Bitdeer signed a 30-year lease agreement for 570 MW of power capacity in Ohio, thereby strengthening its total capacity. Earlier this year, Bitdeer launched a high-performance computing (HPC) and AI business, for which it deployed Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) systems in Singapore and achieved a 100% utilization rate at the start of Q3. During Q2, Bitdeer reports that it advanced its SEALMINER ASIC roadmap, including the recent acquisition of crypto ASIC design company Desiweminer. Bitdeer has deployed its maiden batch of its SEALMINER A1 chips, initiating mass production with a view to add 3.4 EH/s into its data centers by year-end 2024. Bitdeer is awaiting delivery of its second-generation SEAL02 chip products by the end of Q3, after which time it plans to ramp up production for deployment by year-end. Once these chips become available, Bitdeer says it will have the opportunity to generate immediate cash flow from customer pre-orders. Bitdeer On Investor Radars Despite uncertainty around where the Bitcoin price will end in 2024, Bitdeer says it has a robust roadmap, one that involves an ambitious pipeline around its self-mining business, ASIC miner technology, cloud capabilities, AI-powered data centers and more. While Bitdeer’s stock is currently trading below its 52-week high, Wall Street analysts have an average “buy” rating on BTDR shares, suggesting that the stock could have more runway for gains.

Therma Bright Inc. (TSXV: THRM) (OTCQB: TBRIF): Major Approvals Make TBRIF A Stock To Watch

TBRIF

The medical device sector is experiencing rapid growth, driven by technological advancements and rising global healthcare needs. According to Statista, the global market is set to expand at an annual rate of 5.71%, reaching $673.10 billion by 2029. In 2024 alone, the United States is expected to generate $179.80 billion in medical device revenues, underscoring the sector’s substantial potential. In this burgeoning market, Therma Bright Inc. (TSXV: THRM) (OTCQB: TBRIF) stands out as an emerging leader. The company has made notable progress in diagnostics and health-tech solutions, with recent milestones such as the approval of reimbursement for its Venowave VW5 device. These developments highlight Therma Bright’s strong growth potential and its ability to open new revenue streams in the healthcare and medical technology sectors. Reimbursement Approval: A Game-Changer for Revenue On August 19, 2024, Therma Bright announced a landmark achievement with the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) granting permanent Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) code E0683 to its Venowave VW5 device. This approval signifies a major breakthrough, as it not only provides a specific reimbursement code but also sets a precedent for the device's integration into the U.S. healthcare system. Rob Fia, CEO of Therma Bright, expressed his enthusiasm about the development: "We're pleased that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid have approved our permanent code request, as well as the reimbursement pricing and the new HCPCS Level II designation for our Venowave VW5 device." This approval ensures that Venowave VW5 will be reimbursed for up to $1,199 per device or $78.05 per month for rental, totaling up to $819.55 over 13 months. The device addresses critical circulatory issues, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a condition affecting over 900,000 U.S. citizens annually. The reimbursement approval opens a major revenue channel for Therma Bright. Market research projects that the global market for DVT-related treatments will reach $1.5 billion by 2032. With the Venowave VW5 device being the first of its kind to receive a permanent HCPCS code, Therma Bright is poised to capture a significant share of this expanding market. Strategic Investments and Expanding Market Reach In addition to the reimbursement milestone, Therma Bright has been actively expanding its footprint through strategic investments and partnerships. On August 22, 2024, the company announced the securing of a nationwide U.S. distribution partner for the Venowave VW5. This partner will launch an initial sales program to assess Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement timelines and billing procedures, with a commitment to acquire inventory valued at up to $2.38 million post-program success. The partnership is a testament to the confidence in Venowave’s market readiness and the anticipated success of the reimbursement process. Rob Fia highlighted the significance of this deal: "We are thrilled to welcome our nationwide distribution partner to our team... We expect the program to be successful, leading to a significant increase in Venowave orders on a monthly basis and accelerating our revenue growth." Innovative Technological Advancements Therma Bright’s innovative approach extends beyond Venowave. On August 16, 2024, the company revealed that its AI-powered Digital Cough Technology (DCT) is under consideration for a clinical trial involving a new chronic cough drug. This AI-driven platform aims to enhance data collection and clinical decision-making, showcasing Therma Bright’s commitment to advancing healthcare technology. Additionally, Therma Bright continues to make strategic investments in cutting-edge solutions. On August 6, 2024, the company increased its investment in InStatin, a firm developing an inhaled statin for chronic lung conditions. This move not only boosts Therma Bright’s stake but also positions the company to benefit from potential breakthroughs in asthma and COPD treatments. Leadership and Future Prospects The company’s progress is further supported by recent additions to its advisory board. On August 13, 2024, Therma Bright welcomed Michael Raimondo, a seasoned expert in medical sales and operations, to its advisory board. Raimondo’s extensive experience is expected to drive sales growth and navigate the complexities of U.S. healthcare reimbursement processes. Rob Fia commented on Raimondo’s appointment: "We are pleased that Michael has agreed to join Therma Bright's Advisory Board, where his skills and experience in sales and operations will aid in the company’s sales efforts of its health-tech and med-tech devices." Conclusion Therma Bright Inc. (TSXV: THRM) (OTCQB: TBRIF) is poised for significant growth following the approval of the HCPCS code for its Venowave VW5 device. This milestone opens up opportunities in the large DVT treatment market. With strategic investments, new partnerships, and technological advancements, TBRIF is well-positioned for future success, potentially making it a compelling stock for investors Disclaimers: RazorPitch Inc.

EURONAV SHAREHOLDERS IN LINE FOR A US$46 MILLION PAYOUT FOLLOWING COURT RULING AGAINST CMB

FourWorld Capital Management

On Friday, the Brussels Market Court in Belgium ruled that Compagnie Maritime Belge (CMB) wrongly calculated the offer price of shares during its mandatory takeover of Euronav NV in February this year. The court decided the value of each share should be retrospectively increased by at least US$0.52, amounting to an additional pay out of US$46 million. This sum takes into account the 69.2 million shares tendered in March 2024, and those remaining that may be sold if the public offer is re-opened. The Markets’ Court found that when calculating the bid price, CMB had failed to take into account special advantages worth US$104 million granted to Frontline when simultaneously selling it the best part of Euronav’s fleet (its newest 24 VLCC’s or very large crude carriers). The Court’s findings are exceptionally critical of CMB and Frontline: “It is particularly curious that the negotiations regarding the sale of the fleet, although they involved a transaction between Frontline and Euronav, took place exclusively between Frontline and CMB. Euronav was not at the negotiating table. As FourWorld rightly puts it, Euronav was completely sidelined” (para. 112) “CMB and Frontline exerted tremendous pressure on Euronav's supervisory board. (…) The independent chairwoman of the council, in particular, was placed under intense pressure” (para. 115) “Under normal market conditions, transactions are negotiated between directly involved parties, especially between buyer and seller. This is not what happened here. The price of about 2.35 billion dollar paid by Frontline cannot therefore be considered market-conform under these circumstances. This price implied a particular advantage in favor of Frontline.” (para. 117) This ruling breaks new legal ground in Belgium and abroad regarding judicial protection of the minority shareholders, putting brazen bidders willing to game the system on notice. These findings were only made possible after key documents, including supervisory board meeting minutes, legal and financial advice and further evidence, were made available to the public following a court ruling in the United States earlier this year in a case also brought by FourWorld Capital Management LLC (FourWorld). John Addis, Founder and Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of FourWorld said: “Friday’s ruling makes it clear that Euronav’s two largest shareholders acted to serve their own interests at the expense of the company and minority shareholders which is an important first step in unravelling this deal. We believe there was a far greater cost to independent shareholders than recognized by the Brussels Market Court on Friday. “CMB and Frontline managed to pull off the deal of a lifetime underneath the noses of Euronav’s supervisory board and financial regulators. Our years of experience fighting for minority shareholder interests has shown that if a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is. FourWorld will continue to fight through the courts for a fair outcome to this case.” The Brussels Markets’ Court placed the resolution of the share price adjustment firmly back in the jurisdiction of the Belgian financial regulator (FSMA), ordering it to re-examine the bid price taking into account its findings. This means that the FSMA may yet increase the bid price by more than 0,52 US$ – something FourWorld will ask it to do. Having concluded that Euronav’s Supervisory board was sidelined and then coerced, this ruling paves the way for success in a separate legal challenge currently underway in the Antwerp Enterprise Court. In that case, FourWorld has petitioned for the unwinding of CMB’s mandatory takeover, Euronav’s US$2.35 billion fleet sale to Frontline and Euronav’s decision to renounce and settle its arbitration claim against Frontline. The case is scheduled to appear before the Antwerp Enterprise Court in May 2026. - ENDS - Notes for Editors: About FourWorld Capital Management LLC: FourWorld Capital Management is an SEC registered investment adviser with offices in New York and Munich.
