Management Commentary

"We reached two transformational milestones already in 2023 – an agreement in principle for restructuring our debt to more effectively align with our operational buildout and market dynamics, and securing additional capital to achieve positive operating cash flow and EBITDA,” said Paul Prager. “In reaching these achievements, we believe more than ever that TeraWulf is positioned to deliver profitable growth and compelling returns. We are confident in our ability to raise additional funds needed to obtain debt relief and committed to creating shareholder value.”

Patrick Fleury, Chief Financial Officer of TeraWulf, added, “Flexibility is a key attribute of any business, and we believe these modified repayment terms should further differentiate TeraWulf as the preeminent vertically integrated, lowest-cost, and zero carbon bitcoin miner.”
