The company reported a net loss of $18.8 million in the first half of the year, marking a significant decrease of over 50% from the $39.6 million loss recorded during the same period in 2022.

Argo Blockchain also announced a notable achievement in debt reduction, with a $4 million decrease in debt during 2023, leading to a total debt of $75 million. This achievement follows a remarkable reduction of $68 million from the $143 million debt the company owed in June 2022.

The company’s revenues for the first half of 2023 stood at $24 million, reflecting a 31% decline compared to the same period in 2022. This dip in revenues was attributed to the lower valuation of Bitcoin, coupled with the global increase in computing power and the resulting network difficulty.

Despite the challenging market conditions and heightened competition in the mining sector, Argo Blockchain managed to mine a total of 947 Bitcoins during the initial half of the year, representing a modest 1% increase from the BTC mined in the corresponding period of 2022.

Remarkably, 2023 witnessed a substantial 78% surge in global computing power.

As of June 2023, Argo Blockchain’s balance sheet displayed $9.1 million in cash holdings along with 46 Bitcoins. The company further bolstered its financial standing by raising $7.5 million through a share placement in July 2023, aimed at institutional and retail investors.

Argo Blockchain’s performance in the first half of 2023 showcases its resilience in the face of market challenges, with strategic debt reduction and controlled operational expenses contributing to the company’s progress.
