BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND TRENDS
Current report
Overview
Current report
MARA is a vertically integrated digital energy and infrastructure company that leverages high-intensity compute, such as bitcoin mining, to monetize excess energy and optimize power management. We are focused on two key priorities: strategically growing by shifting our model toward low-cost energy with more efficient capital deployment and bringing to market a full suite of solutions for data centers and edge inference, including energy management, load balancing and advanced cooling. As of March 31, 2025, our total energy portfolio consisted of approximately 1.7 gigawatts (“GW”) of capacity with 16 data centers deployed across North America, the Middle East, Europe, and Latin America. We believe we are one of the world’s largest publicly traded bitcoin mining companies, with the majority of our production in the United States.
Current report
While we remain a dominant player in bitcoin mining, we have expanded our footprint in energy generation and are investing in research and development to establish a presence in AI and adjacent markets, creating additional revenue opportunities over the long term. We believe the AI industry is shifting towards inference computing, which requires distributed, low-latency, and energy-efficient infrastructure. To support this shift, we are developing modular at the edge infrastructure solutions, including next-generation two-phase immersion cooling (“2PIC”)
Current report
systems designed to improve efficiency and sustainability. We are also exploring power management solutions, including load balancing, to provide services to the variable energy demands of AI inference workloads. We intend to continue vertically integrating and further reduce energy costs.
Current report
•On February 14, 2025, we completed the acquisition of a wind farm (the “Wind Farm”) in Hansford County, Texas with 240 megawatts (“MW”) of interconnection capacity and 114 MW of nameplate wind capacity. The Wind Farm will utilize previous-generation ASIC mining hardware to provide an avenue for the hardware to continue operating profitably beyond its normal lifecycle.
Current report
•On March 11, 2025, we secured a $150.0 million line of credit, collateralized by a portion of our bitcoin holdings, to support general corporate needs. As of March 31, 2025, approximately 3,250 bitcoin remained pledged as collateral in connection with this line of credit.
Current report
•On March 28, 2025, we commenced a new at-the-market offering program having an aggregate offering price of up to $2.0 billion.
Current report
In addition, during April 2025, we fully energized our 25 MW micro data center initiative at wellheads in North Dakota and Texas, converting excess flared gas into power for our operations. These sites reduce our reliance on grid power and provide us with the lowest cost per bitcoin of our currently operational sites.
Current report
Bitcoin Value
Current report
Our revenues are generally comprised of block rewards earned in bitcoin as a result of successfully solving blocks, and transaction fees earned for verifying transactions in support of the blockchain. After the halving event of April 2024, the current reward for each solved block is equal to 3.125 bitcoin plus transaction fees. The impacts of halving on our results of operations and financial condition may be exacerbated by changes in the market value of bitcoin, which has historically been subject to significant volatility. For example, as of March 31, 2025, the price of a bitcoin was $82,534, compared to $71,289 as of March 31, 2024.
Current report
We continue to retain all bitcoin mined in our operations or purchased, in line with our full holding onto bitcoin (“HODL”) strategy. As of March 31, 2025, we held approximately 47,531 bitcoin, including 14,269 loaned and collateralized bitcoin, on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with acarrying value of approximately$3.9 billion. The fair value of our bitcoin may be materially impacted as the market value of bitcoin fluctuates. Management believes, given our recent investments, coupled with our relative position and liquidity, we are well-positioned to execute on our long-term growth strategy.
Current report
The following table presents our bitcoin digital asset holdings (including loaned and collateralized bitcoin) and the fair value per bitcoin:
Current report
Bitcoin Mining Operations
Current report
In response to an increased demand for bitcoin, we anticipate additional mining operators entering the market and existing competitors scaling their operations, which will grow the blockchain’s network hashrate and difficulty associated with solving a block. As the overall hashrate and difficulty of the Bitcoin network increases, we will need to continue growing our hashrate to remain competitive.
Current report
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we mined 2,286 bitcoin, a decrease of 525 bitcoin, or 19%, from the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to the result of the April 2024 halving event and the increase in global hashrate.
Current report
As of March 31, 2025, we owned approximately 420,000 mining rigs globally, including our share of mining rigs from our equity method investee, the ADGM entity, with an energized hashrate of approximately 54.3 exahashes per second (“EH/s”). To stay competitive, we remain focused on strategically deploying additional mining rigs and scaling our operations, while managing our fleet as it ages along the obsolescence curve. In addition, we continuously evaluate strategic opportunities to support our growth strategy and seek to enhance operational efficiencies by utilizing efficient mining rigs and securing contracts with price protection clauses.

(3) BTC Yield is a key performance indicator that represents the percentage change period-to-period of the ratio between our bitcoin holdings and our Assumed Fully Diluted Shares Outstanding. Assumed Fully Diluted Shares Outstanding refers to the aggregate of our actual shares of common stock outstanding as of the end of the applicable period plus all additional shares that would result from the assumed conversion of all outstanding convertible notes inclusive of the potential make-whole fundamental change provision, exercise of all outstanding warrants and settlement of all outstanding restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units.
Current report
Energy Cost
Current report
Energy cost is the most significant cost driver for mining and represented 38.3%, as a percentage of our owned mining revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This excludes energy costs from third party hosted sites.
Current report
Energy cost can be highly volatile, cyclical and sensitive to geopolitical events and weather conditions, such as winter storms and earthquakes, which impact supply and demand for power regionally. All of our owned mining sites and our hosted miners are subject to variable prices and market rate fluctuations with respect to wholesale energy costs. Such costs are governed by various power purchase agreements, and energy prices can change hour to hour and by location. While this renders energy prices less predictable, it also gives us greater ability and flexibility to actively manage the energy we consume with a goal of increasing profitability and energy efficiency. When such events occur, we may curtail our operations to avoid using power at increased rates. Although we do not receive significant compensation for curtailment, the dispatchable load of our bitcoin mining operations helps balance the grid and provides electricity to communities when in need. The average price of direct energy we paid for our owned facilities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $0.04 per kilowatt hour (“kWh”).
Current report
NM - Not meaningful
Current report
(1) Purchased energy cost per BTC is calculated as the amounts paid to power providers for power consumed divided by the quantity of bitcoin produced during the period related to our owned mining operations. In addition to the impact of the April 2024 halving event, purchased energy costs increased due to broad-based increases in energy costs.
Current report
(2) In 2024, the Company scaled its mining operations through acquisitions and deployment of additional infrastructure, resulting in an increase in its share of BTC block rewards. The growth was partially mitigated by the BTC halving event.
Current report
(3) Purchased energy cost per kWh is calculated using the amounts paid to power providers for power consumed divided by the kWh consumed related to our owned bitcoin mining operations. In the first quarter of 2024, this metric was not meaningful as we were in the early stages of our transition to a vertically integrated operating model focused on owned infrastructure. This transition began in January 2024, when we commenced acquiring data centers to support owned mining operations, which initially represented a limited portion of our overall operations during the period.
Current report
Revenues
Current report
(2) Average price of BTC mined is calculated using BTC mining revenue divided by the bitcoin production, excluding our share of the bitcoin produced for the equity method investee, the ADGM entity.
Current report
We generated revenues of $213.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $165.2 million in the prior year period. The $48.7 million, or approximately 30%, increase in revenues was primarily driven by an increase in bitcoin mining revenue partially offset by a decrease in hosting services. The $68.9 million increase in bitcoin mining revenue was primarily driven by a 77% increase in the average bitcoin price, which contributed $90.7 million, partially offset by a $21.8 million decrease in bitcoin production due to halving.
Current report
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, revenue from hosting services was $1.2 million and $20.8 million, respectively, a decrease of $19.6 million due to the termination of various hosting agreements from the GC Data Center Acquisition during 2024.
Current report
Costs and expenses
Current report
Purchased energy, third party hosting and other energy and operating and maintenance costs
Current report
(2) Purchased energy cost per BTC is calculated as the amounts paid to power providers for power consumed divided by the quantity of bitcoin produced during the period related to our owned mining operations.
Current report
Purchased energy costs during the three months ended March 31, 2025 totaled $43.5 million compared to $6.1 million in the prior year period, an increase of $37.4 million or approximately 614%. Purchased energy costs consist of power expenses paid to power providers for power consumed related to our owned bitcoin mining operations. The increase was primarily driven by the expansion of our owned mining sites through acquisitions and the growth in our hashrate to 54.3 EH/s. Our Cost per Petahash per day improved to $28.5 from $38.1, or approximately 25%, compared to the prior year period despite a higher network difficulty due to an increase in global hashrate. For the three months ended March 31, 2025. Purchased energy cost per bitcoin for our owned mining sites was $35,728 compared to $12,953 in the prior year period.
Current report
Third party hosting and other energy costs during the three months ended March 31, 2025 totaled $68.2 million compared to $69.6 million in the prior year period, a decrease of $1.4 million or approximately 2%. These costs consist of colocation services related to third party hosted sites and energy expenses related to mining other digital assets. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in hosting related operating costs and unexpected equipment downtime in the prior year period, offset by an increase in energized miners at third party hosted facilities.
Current report
Operating and maintenance costs during the three months ended March 31, 2025 totaled $19.8 million compared to $15.8 million in the prior year period, an increase of $4.0 million or approximately 25%. The increase in operating and maintenance costs was primarily due to an increase in shipping and warehouse fees and site repair and maintenance fees associated with our mining operations compared to the prior year period.
Current report
Refer to Note 2– Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on our presentation change relating to our costs.
Current report
General and administrative expenses
Current report
General and administrative expenses were $85.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $68.9 million in the prior year period. General and administrative expenses consist of stock based compensation, professional and legal fees and other people and office expenses. The $17.0 million, or approximately 25%, increase was primarily due to an increase in the scale of business and acquisitions, an increase in our employee headcount from 72 to 171 and an increase in professional fees as part of our strategic expansion. Stock based compensation decreased $3.0 million primarily due to the timing of grants. Restricted stock units awarded for 2023 performance were granted earlier during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the grant of 2025 performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”).

Previous report
Revenues: The Company generated revenues of $131.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $97.8 million in the prior year period. The $33.8 million or approximately 35% increase in revenues was primarily driven by a $74.0 million increase in the average price of bitcoin, partially offset by a $40.5 million decrease in bitcoin production due to the April 2024 halving event. The average price of bitcoin mined was 116% higher than the average price of bitcoin mined in the prior year period and average daily bitcoin production was 22.5 bitcoin in the current year period compared with 37.9 in the prior year period. The Company produced 1,420 less bitcoin for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the halving event in April 2024 and increased global hashrate, partially offset by an increase in the Company’s share of the network hashrate, which resulted in a 14% increase in number of blocks won. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the third-party site equipment failure and transmission line maintenance were completely resolved.
Previous report
Cost of revenues – mining during the three months ended September 30, 2024 totaled $97.1 million compared to $59.6 million in the prior year period. The $37.5 million or approximately 63% increase was primarily driven by the growth in the Company’s hash rate from the deployment and energization of mining rigs compared to the prior year period. The Company’s Cost per Petahash per day improved to $37.1 from $45.2, or approximately 18%, in the three months ended September 30, 2024 when compared with the prior year period, primarily due to strategic acquisitions with more efficient cost structures and deployment of more efficient miners. The Company believes Cost per Petahash per day to be a key metric to evaluate its operating costs and expects it to reduce as the Company grows its operations towards 50.0 exahash by the end of 2024.
Previous report
Cost of revenues – hosting services during the three months ended September 30, 2024 totaled $0.4 million which includes cost of power and other hosting related operating costs to provide hosting services. The Company exited this business during the three months ended September 30, 2024 to strategically focus on its owned and operated mining business.
Previous report
Cost of revenues – depreciation and amortization during the three months ended September 30, 2024 totaled $101.1 million compared to $53.5 million in the prior year period. The $47.6 million or approximately 89% increase was primarily due to the deployment of mining rigs since the prior year period, the acquisitions of GC Data Center Equity Holdings, LLC and the Garden City Acquisition and overall increased scale of the business.
Previous report
Total Margin was a loss of $67.0 million in the current year period compared to a loss of $15.3 million in the prior year period, a decrease of $51.7 million or approximately 337%. The following table summarizes the factors that impacted the decrease in total margin for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior year period:
Previous report
Total margin excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $34.1 million compared to $38.2 million in the prior year period.
Previous report
General and administrative expenses: General and administrative expenses were $63.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $19.4 million in the prior year period, an increase of $44.3 million or approximately 228%. General and administrative expenses excluding stock-based compensation was $40.4 million in the current year period compared to $13.9 million in the prior year period. This $26.5 million or approximately 190% increase in expenses was primarily due to the increased scale of the business and acquisitions, including payroll and benefits, professional fees, facility and equipment repair and maintenance expenses and other third-party costs associated with growth in the business. The increase in stock-based compensation of $23.3 million in the current year period compared to $5.5 million in the prior year period resulted from issuing the Company's 2023 performance-based stock awards in January 2024 and the introduction in May 2024 of a new long-term performance-based stock award program for 2024 that, unlike the 2023 stock award, meets the criteria to begin expensing immediately. The Company’s headcount increased from 48 employees as of September 30, 2023 to approximately 130 employees as of September 30, 2024, further contributed to the increase in stock-based compensation expense.
Previous report
Change in fair value of digital assets: The Company recognized a gain on digital assets of $30.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a loss of $44.7 million in the prior year period. The $74.8 million or approximately 167% increase was primarily related to the favorable mark-to-market adjustment in the current year period due to the increase in bitcoin price from $62,668 to $63,301, from June 30, 2024 to September 30, 2024, respectively, and the underlying digital assets held at the respective dates. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had 26,747 bitcoin, an increase of 95% compared to the prior year period. The Company views bitcoin on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as an important treasury reserve asset and expects to continue to invest in the future.
Previous report
Change in fair value of derivative instrument: The Company acquired a commodity swap contract as a result of the GC Data Center Equity Holdings, LLC acquisition. The fair value decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to the decrease in the electricity forward curve prices during the current period compared to the contracted fixed price.

Previous report
Interest income: Interest income was $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $0.4 million in the prior year period. The $3.5 million increase was primarily due to the higher average balance of cash and cash equivalents and interest earned on loaned bitcoin in the current year period.
Previous report
Interest expense: Interest expense of $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 remained relatively flat compared to the prior year period. Interest costs were impacted by the exchange of $416.8 million aggregate principal amount of 2026 Notes for shares of the Company’s common stock September 2023 and the issuance of the 2031 Notes during the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
Net loss: The Company recorded a net loss of $124.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to a net loss of $0.4 million in the prior year period. The $124.4 million decrease in net loss was primarily driven by a $92.1 million increase in operating loss, the absence of an $82.6 million net gain from the extinguishment of debt, partially offset by a $49.2 million income tax benefit in the current period compared to the prior year period.
Previous report
Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA was $21.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $21.3 million in the prior year period.

Revenues: The Company generated revenues of $442.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $230.7 million in the prior year period. The $211.2 million or approximately 92% increase in revenues was primarily driven by a $234.0 million increase in the average price of bitcoin mined, partially offset by a $52.6 million decrease in bitcoin production due to the April 2024 halving, and the inclusion of $29.8 million in revenues generated from providing hosting services as a result of the GC Data Center Hosting, LLC acquisition in January of 2024. The average price of bitcoin mined was 120% higher than the average price of bitcoin mined in the prior year period and average daily bitcoin production was 25.3 bitcoin in the current year period compared with 31.5 in the prior year period. The Company produced 1,672 less bitcoin for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the halving event in April 2024, increased global hashrate and the continued impact of unexpected equipment failures at third-party operated sites and transmission line maintenance, partially offset by an increase in the Company’s share of the network hashrate. During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the third-party site equipment failure and transmission line maintenance were completely resolved.
Previous report
Cost of revenues – mining during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 totaled $254.2 million compared to $148.2 million in the prior year period. The $106.0 million or approximately 72% increase was primarily driven by the growth in the Company’s hash rate from the deployment and energization of mining rigs compared to the prior year period. Partially offsetting the increase was the impact of unexpected equipment failures and transmission line maintenance, which resulted in downtime that reduced hosting and energy costs. The Company’s Cost per Petahash per day improved to $40.7 from $48.9, or approximately 17%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 when compared to the prior year period, primarily due to strategic acquisitions with more efficient cost structures and deployment of more efficient miners. The Company believes Cost per Petahash per day to be a key metric to evaluate its operating costs and expects it to reduce as the Company grows its operations towards 50.0 exahash by the end of 2024.
Previous report
Cost of revenues – hosting services during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 totaled $27.4 million which includes cost of power and other hosting related operating costs to provide hosting services.

General and administrative expenses: General and administrative expenses were $194.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $54.4 million in the prior year period, an increase of $139.8 million or approximately 257%. General and administrative expenses excluding stock-based compensation was $90.6 million in the current year period compared to $40.5 million in the prior year period. The $50.1 million or approximately 124% increase in expenses was primarily due to the increased scale of the business and acquisitions, including payroll and benefits, professional fees, facility and equipment repair and maintenance expenses, and other third-party costs associated with growth in the business. The increase in stock-based compensation of $103.6 million in the current year period compared to $13.9 million in the prior year period resulted from issuing the Company's 2023 performance-based stock awards in January 2024 and the introduction of a new long-term performance-based stock award program for 2024 in May 2024 that, unlike the 2023 stock award, meets the criteria to begin expensing immediately. The Company’s headcount increased from 48 employees as of September 30, 2023 to approximately 130 employees as of September 30, 2024, further contributed to the increase in stock-based compensation expense.

(3) The Company defines Energized Hash Rate as the total hash rate that could be generated if all installed and energized machines were running at 100% of manufacturers’ specifications. The Company uses this metric only as an indicator of progress in bringing mining rigs online. The Company defines Installed Hash Rate as the total hash rate that could be generated if all installed machines were running at 100% of manufacturers’ specifications. The Company uses this metric only as an indicator of progress in deploying mining rigs at its production sites. The Company believes that these metrics are useful as an indicator of potential bitcoin production. However, these metrics cannot be tied directly to any production level expected to be actually achieved as (a) there may be delays in the energization of Installed Hash Rate (b) the Company cannot predict when installed and energized mining rigs may be offline for any reason, including curtailment or machine failure and (c) the Company cannot predict Global Hash Rate (and therefore the Company's share of the Global Hash Rate), which has a significant impact on the Company's ability to generate bitcoin in any given period.
Current wording
(1) We define Energized Hashrate as the total hashrate that could theoretically be generated if all mining rigs that have been operational are currently in operation and running at 100% of manufacturers’ specifications. We use this metric as an indicator of progress in bringing mining rigs online. We believe this metric is a useful indicator of potential bitcoin production. However, metrics cannot be tied directly to any production level expected to be actually achieved as (a) there may be delays in the energization of hashrate (b) we cannot predict when operational mining rigs may be offline for any reason, including curtailment or machine failure and (c) we cannot predict Global Hashrate (and therefore our share of the Global Hashrate), which has a significant impact on our ability to generate bitcoin in any given period.

Change in fair value of digital assets: The Company recognized a gain on digital assets of $370.9 million, compared to a gain of $117.9 million in the prior year period. The $253.0 million or approximately 215% increase was primarily related to the increase in bitcoin price from $42,288 to $63,301 from December 31, 2023 to September 30, 2024, respectively and the underlying digital assets held at the respective dates. As of September 30,

As of March 31, 2025, we had 47,531 bitcoin, an increase of 174% compared to the prior year period.
Previous wording
Research and development: Research and development expenses were $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $0.7 million in the prior year period. These expenses consisted primarily of contractor costs, supplies, personnel and related expenses for our mining and technology businesses.
Current wording
Research and development expenses were $9.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $2.5 million in the prior year period. The $6.8 million, or approximately 277% increase, was primarily due to the increase in contractor costs, supplies, personnel, and related expenses for our mining and technology businesses.

Previous wording
Income tax benefit (expense): The Company recorded income tax benefit of $49.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to an income tax expense of $0.1 million in the prior year period. The $49.2 million income tax benefit primarily arises from the release of the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, driven by the increase in bitcoin’s fair value and positive forecasts for its future value.
Current wording
We recorded income tax benefit of $119.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to an income tax expense of $38.1 million in the prior year period. The $119.2 million income tax benefit primarily reflects changes in pretax book income and loss during the periods, driven largely by fair value adjustments related to digital assets. The income tax benefit was partially offset by the prior year’s release of the valuation allowance.

In order to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by our management team in financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) with the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted EBITDA and total margin excluding depreciation and amortization.
Current wording
In order to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by our management team in financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) with the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA.
Previous wording
The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as (a) GAAP net income (loss) plus (b) adjustments to add back the impacts of (1) interest income (2) interest expense, (3) income tax expense (benefit), (4) depreciation and amortization and (5) adjustments for non-cash and/or non-recurring items which currently include (i) stock compensation expense, (ii) change in fair value of derivative instrument, (iii) early termination expenses and other and (iv) net gain from extinguishment of debt. The Company defines total margin excluding depreciation and amortization as (a) GAAP total margin less (b) depreciation and amortization.
Current wording
We define Adjusted EBITDA as (a) GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders plus (b) adjustments to add back the impacts of (1) interest, (2) income taxes, (3) depreciation and amortization and (4) adjustments for non-cash and/or non-recurring items, which currently include (i) stock compensation expense, (ii) change in fair value of derivative instrument, (iii) net gain on investments and (iv) early termination expenses.
Previous wording
Management uses adjusted EBITDA and total margin excluding depreciation and amortization, along with the supplemental information provided herein, as a means of understanding, managing and evaluating business performance and to help inform operating decision-making. The Company relies primarily on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to understand, manage and evaluate its financial performance and uses non-GAAP financial measures only supplementally.

We rely primarily on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to understand, manage and evaluate our financial performance and uses non-GAAP financial measures only supplementally.
Previous wording
We believe that adjusted EBITDA and total margin excluding depreciation and amortization are useful measures to us and to our investors because they exclude certain financial, capital structure and non-cash items that we do not believe directly reflect our core operations and may not be indicative of our recurring operations, in part because they may vary widely across time and within our industry independent of the performance of our core operations. We believe that excluding these items enables us to more effectively evaluate our performance period-over-period and relative to our competitors. Adjusted EBITDA and total margin excluding depreciation and amortization may not be comparable to similarly titled measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculations.
Current wording
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure to us and to our investors because it excludes certain financial, capital structure and non-cash items that we do not believe directly reflect our core operations and may not be indicative of our recurring operations, in part because they may vary widely across time and within our industry independent of the performance of our core operations. We believe that excluding these items enables us to more effectively evaluate our performance period-over-period and relative to our competitors.
Previous wording
The Company acquired a commodity swap agreement, which meets the definition of a derivative, in conjunction with its acquisition of GC Data Center Equity Holdings, LLC on January 12, 2024. The change in fair value of this derivative instrument has fluctuated significantly since we acquired this contract, and we believe these fluctuations do not reflect the performance of our core operations. In addition, we believe excluding the change in fair value of derivative instruments enables us to more effectively evaluate our performance period-over-period and relative to our competitors who make similar adjustments to adjusted EBITDA. As such, beginning with the period ended September 30, 2024, the Company has updated its calculation of adjusted EBITDA to exclude the change in fair value of derivative instrument. Accordingly, certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Current wording
Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Cash flows from operating activities resulted in a use of funds of $363.6 million, as net income, adjusted for non-cash and non-operating items, in the amount of $62.3 million was more than offset by the use of cash of $425.9 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. When the Company produces and holds bitcoin on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, it excludes such produced and held bitcoin from its operating cash flows. If the Company monetizes bitcoin in the future, those proceeds are reported as cash flows from investing activities. Changes in cash flows from operating assets and liabilities were driven by a use of funds associated with changes in digital assets of $412.0 million due to the non-cash adjustment for bitcoin mining revenues and deposits of $15.7 million resulting from increased deposits associated with hosting agreements.

At September 30, 2024, the fair value of a single bitcoin was approximately$63,301. The Company expects that its future bitcoin holdings will generally increase but will fluctuate from time to time, both in number of bitcoin held and fair value in U.S. dollars, depending upon operating and market conditions. The Company intends to add to its bitcoin holdings primarily through its production activities and from time to time purchases. The Company historically sold bitcoin as a means of generating cash to fund monthly operating costs and for general corporate purposes.
