Bitcoin Mining Giant Argo Blockchain Gets Negative Cash Flows And Stock Price Dips

Though the crypto winter seems to be over, its impact on Bitcoin and the crypto market still lingers. Several crypto-related firms have gone down the drain over the pressure in the market. Some are still battling to stay afloat despite the forces’ influence while managing their operations. Most companies related to Bitcoin mining are getting more heat from the fluctuating market trend. Most Bitcoin miners have shut down businesses, but some filed for bankruptcy as they couldn’t weather the storm. Related Reading: Bitcoin Miner Selling Power At Lowest For 2022, Green Sign For Market? Argo Blockchain is reportedly facing a negative cash flow, with the value of its shares declining. The pressure is getting more intense for the crypto mining giant in financing its continuous operation. More failures in such financing quests could lead to a halt in its process or a drastic cash drop in the future. Bitcoin Mining Giant Argo Blockchain With No Adequate Sources To Fight Insolvency The BTC miner released a press statement disclosing its previous financial plans. It noted how the firm has been exploring diverse economic opportunities. However, it has no concrete assurance in signing such agreements or completing fruitful transactions. It revealed that the company needs to consummate financial activities offering enough working capital for its operational requirements. Such economic growth is necessary for its sustainability in the next twelve months from today to avoid becoming bankrupt. According to the press, the firm had a partnership plan with an investor to generate $27 million through shares subscription. However, the attempt came out unsuccessful. Also, Argo Blockchain reported the sales of some of its mining equipment to preserve cash and enhance its liquidity. For example, it recorded selling about 3,843 brand-new Bitman S19J Pro machines in the firm’s last batch of inventory scheduled for October. Argo Blockchain Stock Plummets Following the recent downward financial stance, Argo’s shares performance has plummeted. The data indicated a decline of almost 50% over the past 24 hours. Also, the stocks report from the beginning of the year shows a dip of over 80%. The struggle by Argo has been going on for some time now. Finally, the Bitcoin mining firm got a $25 million BTC-backed loan from Galaxy Digital, an investment management company, in September 2021. The loan targets to support the miner’s cash flow requirements and expansion plans in West Texas. Argo has been selling its BTC, holding monthly throughout 2022. This move is the necessary option to cut down its part of the agreement and increase its balance sheet. In June this year, the firm sold about 637 Bitcoin at $24,500 per token.

Argo Blockchain saw its Bitcoin mining margin drop to 20% in August

Argo Blockchain saw its Bitcoin mining margin drop to 20% in August

Argo Blockchain PLC (LON: ARB), a publicly traded Bitcoin mining company that’s one of the largest in the world, has released an operational update showing its mining margin decreased to 20% in August.

In this latest blockchain news, and as per the company’s announcement Friday, the reduction in mining margin – from 37% in July – was down to two factors:

Bitcoin (BTC) price dropping 11% during the month and rising power costs at the firm’s mining facility Helios.

Notably, Argo’s power purchase agreement at the Texas-based facility provides for spot purchases of power. In August 2022, spot market prices averaged at $0.09 per kWh, almost three times prices in previous years, a scenario that has contributed to the reduced margin.

Argo’s mining revenue increased

Explaining the high spot power costs in West Texas, the firm pointed to the 204% jump in natural gas prices, the highest over the month compared to the same period in 2018-2021. The gas price problem, Argo contends, is due to the impact of war in Ukraine as well as low storage levels of the commodity in the US.

But despite this downside, Argo Blockchain mined 235 Bitcoin during the month – compared to 219 BTC mined in July. Increased hashrate at Helios and installation of new Bitmain S19J Pro miners had pushed total hashrate to 2.5 EH/s and keeps the company on track to achieve the target of 3.2 EH/s by end of October 2022.

The company has signed a strategic hosting agreement with an unnamed third party that will allow for efficiency at Helios and add to the hashrate, Peter Wall, Argo chief executive noted in a statement.

“While our mining margin is lower than expected, the recent high natural gas and electricity prices are a temporary reflection of broader market dislocations, and we are confident that electricity prices will align with historical trends in the near future. Further, electricity prices are seasonal, and we expect prices to decrease as temperatures come down through the cooler months.”

Argo held 1,098 Bitcoin as of 31 August 2022, while mining revenue was £4.39 million ($5.23 million), up from £3.89 million ($4.73 million) in July. The company’s shares were up by more than 10% on Friday as blockchain stocks mirrored the crypto market with a fresh bounce alongside broader risk market assets.
