Non-IFRS Measures
Bitcoin and Bitcoin Equal Mining Margin is a monetary measure not outlined by IFRS and has limitations as an analytical device. Particularly, Bitcoin and Bitcoin Equal Mining Margin excludes the depreciation of mining gear and so doesn’t replicate the complete price of our mining operations, and it additionally excludes the results of fluctuations within the worth of digital currencies and realized losses on the sale of digital belongings, which have an effect on our IFRS gross revenue. This measure shouldn’t be thought of as an alternative choice to gross margin decided in accordance with IFRS, or different IFRS measures. This measure will not be essentially similar to equally titled measures utilized by different firms. Because of this, you shouldn’t take into account this measure in isolation from, or instead evaluation for, our gross margin as decided in accordance with IFRS.
The next desk reveals a reconciliation of Bitcoin and Bitcoin Equal Mining Margin to gross margin, essentially the most immediately comparable IFRS measure, for the months of September and October 2021.
