APPLIED DIGITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
For the Three and Six Months Ended November 30, 2023
1. Business and Organization
Applied Digital Corporation (the “Company”), is a designer, builder, and operator of digital infrastructure providing cost-competitive solutions to customers. The Company has three reportable segments. Financial information for each segment is contained in Note 10 - Business Segments.
2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements on Form 10-K have been condensed or omitted. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures required for audited annual financial statements.
In the Company’s opinion, all necessary adjustments have been made for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, please refer to and read these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on August 2, 2023.
Significant Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include estimates of the valuation allowance associated with the Company’s deferred tax assets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Datacenter Hosting Revenue
The Company provides energized space to customers who locate their hardware within the Company’s co-hosting facility. All datacenter hosting performance obligations are achieved simultaneously by providing the hosting environment for the customers’ operations. Customers pay a fixed rate to the Company in exchange for a managed hosting environment supported by customer-provided equipment. Revenue is recognized based on the contractual fixed rate, net of any credits for non-performance, over the term of the agreements. Any ancillary revenue for maintenance or installation services is at a point in time when the maintenance or installation service is complete. As these services are directly attributable to the Company’s datacenter hosting service, this revenue is captured within the datacenter hosting revenue caption in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Customer contracts include advance payment terms. All advanced service payments are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized as revenue once the related service is provided.
Cloud Services Revenue
The Company also provides managed cloud infrastructure services to customers, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning developers, to help develop their advanced products. Customers pay a fixed rate to the Company in exchange for managed cloud services supported by Company-provided equipment. Revenues are recognized based on the fixed rate, net of any credits for non-performance, over the term of the agreements.

Segments
The Company has identified three reportable segments: cloud services (“Cloud services”), high-performance compute hosting (“HPC hosting”), and datacenter hosting (“Datacenter hosting”). The Company’s chief operating decision-maker evaluates performance, makes operating decisions and allocates resources on both a consolidated basis and on the basis of these three reportable segments. Intercompany transactions between segments are excluded for management reporting purposes.
The Datacenter hosting segment operates datacenters to provide energized space to crypto mining customers. Customer-owned hardware is installed in the Company’s facilities and the Company provides operational and maintenance services for a fixed fee.
The Cloud services segment operates through our Sai Computing brand and provides cloud services to customers, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning developers, to develop their advanced products. Customers pay a fixed rate to the Company in exchange for a managed hosting environment supported by Company-provided equipment.
The HPC hosting segment designs, builds, and operates datacenters which are designed to support high-compute applications using advanced and sophisticated infrastructures to provide services to customers.
See Note 3 - Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC, for additional information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies and use of estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications
We have reclassified certain prior period revenue amounts from datacenter hosting revenue to related party datacenter hosting revenue on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We have also reclassified amounts from accounts payable and accrued expenses and prepaid expenses and other current assets to accounts payable, accrued expenses, prepaid expenses, and other current assets as well as from customer deposits and deferred revenue to the associated related party caption lines and from prepaid expenses and other current assets to other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets to conform to our current period presentation. Lastly, we have reclassified interest income from selling, general and administrative to interest expense, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations to conform to our current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on reported net income, cash flows, or total assets and liabilities.

Claims and Litigation
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business.
On August 12, 2023, a putative securities class action complaint, captioned McConnell v. Applied Digital Corporation, Wesley Cummins and David Rench, No. 3:23-cv-1805, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division against Applied Digital Corporation (the “Company”) and two of its officers, Chief Executive Officer Wesley Cummins and Chief Financial Officer David Rench, asserting violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act. The complaint alleges that the defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business, operations, and compliance policies. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the Company overstated the profitability of its datacenter hosting business and its ability to successfully transition into a low-cost cloud services provider and that the Company’s board of directors was not “independent” within the meaning of NASDAQ listing rules.
On November 15, 2023, a putative securities complaint, captioned Robert Weich v. Wes Cummins, Chuck Hastings, Kelli McDonald, Douglas Miller, Virginia Moore, and Richard Nottenburg, No. A-23-881629-C, was filed in the U.S. District Court for Clark County, Nevada against certain members of Applied Digital Corporation’s Board of Directors and two of its officers, Chief Executive Officer Wesley Cummins and Chief Financial Officer David Rench, asserting breaches of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment from April 2022 through the present. The complaint alleges that the defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business, operations, and compliance policies. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the Company overstated the profitability of its datacenter hosting business and its ability to successfully transition into a low-cost cloud services provider and that the Company’s board of directors was not “independent” within the meaning of NASDAQ listing rules.
The Company is unable to estimate a range of loss, if any, that could result were there to be an adverse final decision in this action. If an unfavorable action were to occur, it is possible that the impact could be material to the Company’s results of operations in the period(s) in which any such outcome becomes probable and estimable.
As of November 30, 2023, there were no other pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s consolidated operations. There are also no legal proceedings in which any of the Company’s management or affiliates is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to the Company’s interest.

11. Earnings Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share (“EPS”) of common stock is computed by dividing the Company’s net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if the securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.
Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. The table below shows the calculation for earnings per share:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. In some cases you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” and “would,” or similar words. Statements that contain these words and other statements that are forward-looking in nature should be read carefully because they discuss future expectations, contain projections of future results of operations or of financial positions or state other “forward-looking” information.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent uncertainty and may ultimately prove to be incorrect or false. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, which are based on currently available information. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Except as otherwise may be required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or actual operating results. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to:
•labor and other workforce shortages and challenges;
•our dependence on principal customers;
•the addition or loss of significant customers or material changes to our relationships with these customers;
•our ability to timely and successfully build new hosting facilities with the appropriate contractual margins and efficiencies;
•our ability to continue to grow sales in our hosting business;
•concentration of customers in the crypto mining industry, which customer base may decline due to price volatility and uncertainties around regulation policy of cryptoasset prices; and
•equipment failures, power or other supply disruptions.
You should carefully review the risks described in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2023, which was filed on August 2, 2023, as well as any other cautionary language in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the occurrence of any of these events could have an adverse effect, which may be material, on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Executive Overview
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Business Overview
We are a designer, builder, and operator of digital infrastructure providing cost-competitive solutions to customers in high-performance compute hosting (“HPC hosting”), cloud service (“Cloud services”), and datacenter hosting (“Datacenter hosting”) industries.
Trends and Other Factors Affecting Our Business
Regulatory Environment
We have a material concentration of customers in the crypto mining industry. Our customers’ businesses are subject to extensive laws, rules, regulations, policies and legal and regulatory guidance, including those governing securities, commodities, cryptoasset custody, exchange and transfer, data governance, data protection, cybersecurity and tax. Many of these legal and regulatory regimes were adopted prior to the advent of the Internet, mobile technologies, cryptoassets and related technologies. As a result, they do not contemplate or address unique issues associated with the crypto economy, are subject to significant uncertainty, and vary widely across U.S. federal, state and local and international jurisdictions. These legal and regulatory regimes, including the laws, rules and regulations thereunder, evolve frequently and may be modified, interpreted and applied in an inconsistent manner from one jurisdiction to another, and may conflict with one another. Moreover, the complexity and evolving nature of our business and the significant uncertainty surrounding the regulation of the crypto economy requires us to exercise our judgement as to whether certain laws, rules and regulations apply to us or
14

Table of Contents
our customers, and it is possible that governmental bodies and regulators may disagree with our or our customers’ conclusions. To the extent we or our customers have not complied with such laws, rules and regulations, we could be subject to significant fines and other regulatory consequences, which could adversely affect our business, prospects or operations. As cryptoassets have grown in popularity and in market size, the Federal Reserve Board, U.S. Congress and certain U.S. agencies (e.g., the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the SEC, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network and the Federal Bureau of Investigation) have begun to examine the operations of cryptoasset networks, cryptoasset users and cryptoasset exchange markets. Other countries around the world are likewise reviewing and, in some cases, increasing regulation of the cryptoasset industry. For instance, on September 24, 2021, China imposed a ban on all crypto transactions and mining.
Ongoing and future regulatory actions could effectively prevent our customers’ mining operations and our ongoing or planned co-hosting operations, limiting or preventing future revenue generation by us or rendering our operations and crypto mining equipment obsolete. Such actions could severely impact our ability to continue to operate and our ability to continue as a going concern or to pursue our strategy at all, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects or operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are identified and described in our annual consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report, and there have been no material changes since the filing of our Annual Report.

Commentary on Results of Operations Comparative Results for the Three Months Ended November 30, 2023 compared to the Three Months Ended November 30, 2022
Revenue
Datacenter hosting revenue increased $25.4 million, or 290%, from $8.7 million for the three months ended November 30, 2022 to $34.1 million for the three months ended November 30, 2023 driven primarily by a full quarter of revenue generation from the Company’s Ellendale facility as well as the Garden City facility beginning revenue generation during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024.
Cloud services revenue increased $4.5 million, or 100%, from zero for the three months ended November 30, 2022 to $4.5 million for the three months ended November 30, 2023 driven by a full quarter of revenue generation as the Company began providing service to its cloud services customers during the first quarter of fiscal year 2024.
Related party datacenter hosting revenue was $3.6 million for the three months ended November 30, 2023 which was comparable to $3.6 million for the three months ended November 30, 2022.

The primary driver of the decrease was a $17.0 million decrease in stock based compensation expense, as the Company recognized a cumulative catch-up of expense in stock based compensation expense in the comparative period upon the Company’s registration statement for the award shares being declared effective. This decrease was partially offset by the following increases:
•approximately $5.0 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense attributable to owned and leased assets that do not directly support revenue;
•approximately $2.0 million increase in employee salaries and benefits expense not directly attributable to revenues;
•approximately $1.9 million increase in other selling, general, and administrative expenses such as insurance premiums and computer and software expenses;

The increase in datacenter hosting revenues was driven by a full six months of operations at our Ellendale, North Dakota facility as well as as well as the Garden City facility beginning revenue generation during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024.
Cloud services revenue increased $6.6 million, or 100%, from zero for the six months ended November 30, 2022 to $6.6 million for the six months ended November 30, 2023 due to revenue from the Company’s first cloud services contract, which started during the first quarter of fiscal year 2024.
Related party datacenter hosting revenue increased $1.6 million, or 27%, from $6.2 million for the six months ended November 30, 2022 to $7.8 million for the six months ended November 30, 2023 driven by increased uptime at the Company’s Jamestown, North Dakota facility.
Cost of revenues
Cost of revenues increased by $35.7 million, or 199%, from $17.9 million for the six months ended November 30, 2022 to $53.6 million for the six months ended November 30, 2023. The increase is primarily driven by the growth in the business as more facilities were energized compared to the six months ended November 30, 2022. The change in cost of revenues are categorized as follows:
•approximately $21.1 million increase in energy costs used to generate revenue;
•approximately $11.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense attributable to owned and leased assets directly supporting revenue;
•approximately $2.1 million increase in personnel expenses for employees directly attributable to generating revenue; and
•approximately $0.9 million increase in other expenses directly attributable to generating revenue.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $5.9 million, or 18%, from $32.2 million for the six months ended November 30, 2022 to $38.1 million for the six months ended November 30, 2023. The primary drivers of the change to selling, general and administrative expense for the six months ended November 30, 2023 were:
•approximately $7.8 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense not attributable to owned and leased assets directly supporting revenue;
•approximately $3.8 million increase in employee salaries and benefits expense not directly attributable to revenues;
•approximately $3.7 million increase in other selling, general, and administrative expenses such as insurance premiums and computer and software expenses;
•approximately $1.9 million increase in colocation lease expenses, incurred prior to services being provided, due to the growth of the business; and
•approximately $0.7 million increase in professional service expenses incurred to support the growth of the business.

Commentary on Segment Data Comparative Results for the Three Months Ended November 30, 2023 compared to the Three Months Ended November 30, 2022
Datacenter Hosting Segment
Operating Profit
Datacenter hosting operating profit increased $25.1 million, or 176% from a loss of $14.2 million for the three months ended November 30, 2022 to a profit of $10.8 million for the three months ended November 30, 2023. The change is driven by full energization of the Company’s Ellendale, North Dakota and Jamestown, North Dakota facilities during the three months ended November 30, 2023, relative to operations only at the Company’s Jamestown facility during the the three months ended November 30, 2022. The change is also driven by a decrease in stock-based compensation between the periods.
Cloud Services Segment
Operating Loss
Cloud services operating loss increased $11.7 million, from zero for the three months ended November 30, 2022 to $11.7 million for the three months ended November 30, 2023. The operating loss is primarily driven by amortization expense on finance leases on computing equipment, occupancy costs from operating leases, and stock-based compensation expense attributable to the segment.

HPC Hosting Segment
Operating Loss
HPC hosting operating loss increased $0.9 million, or 100% from zero to $0.9 million due to the Company launching the segment during the current period. The loss is largely comprised of stock-based compensation expense, payroll, and amortization expense related to finance leases in the HPC hosting buildout.
Commentary on Segment Data Comparative Results for the Six Months Ended November 30, 2023 compared to the Six Months Ended November 30, 2022
Datacenter Hosting Segment
Operating Profit
Datacenter hosting operating profit increased $34.9 million, or 231% from a loss of $15.1 million for the six months ended November 30, 2022 to a profit of $19.8 million for the six months ended November 30, 2023. The change is driven by a full six months of operations at our Ellendale, North Dakota facility as well as the Garden City facility beginning revenue generation during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024. The change is also driven by a decrease in stock-based compensation between the periods.
Cloud Services Segment
Operating Loss
Cloud services operating loss increased $19.1 million, from zero for the six months ended November 30, 2022 to $19.1 million for the six months ended November 30, 2023 primarily driven by amortization expense on finance leases on computing equipment, occupancy costs from operating leases, and stock-based compensation expense attributable to the segment.
HPC Hosting Segment
Operating Loss
HPC hosting operating loss increased $1.7 million, or 100% from zero to $1.7 million due to the Company launching the segment during the current period. The loss is largely comprised of stock-based compensation expense, payroll, and amortization expense related to finance leases in the HPC hosting buildout.
Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted Operating Loss and Adjusted Net Loss
“Adjusted Operating Loss” is a non-GAAP measure that represents operating loss excluding stock-based compensation, loss from legal settlement, non-recurring professional service costs and other non-recurring expenses. “Adjusted Net Loss” is a non-GAAP measure that represents net loss excluding stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss on legal settlement, non-recurring professional services costs and other non-recurring expenses. We believe these are useful metrics as they provide additional information regarding factors and trends affecting our business and provide perspective on results absent one-time or significant non-cash items. However, the Company’s presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. The Company’s computation of Adjusted Operating Loss and Adjusted Net Loss may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all companies may not calculate Adjusted Operating Loss and Adjusted Net Loss in the same fashion.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted Operating Loss and Adjusted Net Loss should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using Adjusted Operating Loss and Adjusted Net Loss on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation of operating loss to Adjusted Operating Loss and net loss to Adjusted Net Loss above and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
“EBITDA” is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss from legal settlement, non-recurring professional service costs, and other non-recurring expenses. These costs have been adjusted as they are not

indicative of business operations. Adjusted EBITDA is intended as a supplemental measure of the Company’s performance that is neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. The Company believes that the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing its financial measures with those of comparable companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. We also believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful metrics to investors because they provide additional information regarding factors and trends affecting our business, which are used in the business planning process to understand expected operating performance, to evaluate results against those expectations, and because of their importance as measures of underlying operating performance, as the primary compensation performance measure under certain programs and plans. However, you should be aware that when evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, the Company may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. In addition, the Company’s presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. the Company’s computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same fashion.
Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA above and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.

Sources of Liquidity
As of November 30, 2023, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $9.2 million and negative working capital of $166.0 million. Historically the Company has incurred losses and has relied on equity and debt financings to fund its operations. We have primarily generated cash in the last 12 months from the proceeds of our term loans, issuance of common stock, and the receipt of contractual deposits and revenue payments from customers.
See Note 6 - Debt to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information on our term loans.

Table of Contents
On June 27, 2023, the Company began issuing and selling common stock under an "at the market" sales agreement, with Craig-Hallum Capital, pursuant to which the Company may sell up to $125 million in aggregate proceeds from sales of common stock. As of November 30, 2023, the Company has sold approximately 14.8 million shares. Net proceeds, less commission and legal fees of approximately $3.3 million, were approximately $97.9 million. The Company received an additional $23.1 million in proceeds subsequent to November 30, 2023. The at the market offering is now complete.
During the six months ended November 30, 2023, we received $81.8 million in payments for future datacenter hosting services.
Further, during December 2023, the Company received payments from cloud services customers totaling $8.1 million and $3.0 million from datacenter hosting customers for future services.
Funding Requirements
We have experienced net losses through the period ended November 30, 2023. Our transition to profitability is dependent on the successful operation of our three lines of business. The Company expects to have sufficient liquidity, including cash on hand, payments from customers, and access to public capital markets, to support ongoing operations. We believe these activities will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs for at least the next 12 months and all of the Company’s known requirements and plans for cash. We have based our estimates as to how long we expect we will be able to fund our operations on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect, in which case, we would be required to obtain additional financing sooner than currently projected, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. Our failure to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to pursue our business strategy.
We expect that our general and administrative expenses and our operating expenditures will continue to increase as we continue to expand our operations. We believe that the significant investments in property and equipment will remain throughout fiscal year 2024 as we continue construction of our HPC hosting facilities and acquire assets to support our cloud services business. We also expect that our revenues will increase as we continue to bring online additional capacity at our Garden City, Texas location and within our cloud services contracts.

Commentary on the change in cash flows between the Six Months Ended November 30, 2023 and Six Months Ended November 30, 2022
Operating Activities
The net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $18.9 million, or 68%, from $28.0 million for the six months ended November 30, 2022 to $9.1 million for the six months ended November 30, 2023. The primary reason for the change was a decrease in revenue prepayments received relative to revenue earned during the six months ended November 30, 2023 as well as an increase in payments associated with our operating leases.
Investing Activities
The net cash used in investing activities decreased by $4.7 million, from $70.3 million for the six months ended November 30, 2022 to $65.6 million for the six months ended November 30, 2023. The primary reason for the change was a reduction in investments in property, plant, and equipment as the Company had completed most of the Ellendale, North Dakota and Garden City, Texas facilities as of the beginning of the current period. This reduction was partially offset by an
23

Table of Contents
increase in finance lease prepayments made for leases on hosting equipment to support the Company’s cloud services business during the six months ended November 30, 2023.
Financing Activities
The net cash provided by financing activities increased by $33.5 million, or 238%, from $14.1 million for the six months ended November 30, 2022 to $47.6 million for the six months ended November 30, 2023. The primary reason for the change was the receipt of net proceeds from the Company’s common stock offering which was partially offset by an increase in debt repayments and an increase in finance lease payments during the six months ended November 30, 2023.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, and as a result of the material weaknesses described below, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of November 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual and interim financial statements will not be detected or prevented on a timely basis.
We have identified the following material weaknesses in the design of our internal controls:
•We have not designed and implemented controls to ensure we can record, process, summarize, and report financial data.
•We have not yet designed and implemented user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties that would adequately restrict user and privileged access to the financially relevant systems and data to appropriate personnel.
•We did not design and maintain effective controls associated with related party transactions and disclosures. Controls in place were not designed or implemented at a sufficient level of precision or rigor to effectively identify related party relationships and disclose their related transactions in our financial statements.
•We also do not have a properly designed internal control system that identifies critical processes and key controls.
In order to remediate these material weaknesses, we are taking the following steps, among others:
1.continued hiring of additional qualified accounting and financial reporting personnel to support division of responsibilities;
2.improving and updating our systems;
3.developing IT general controls to manage access and program changes across our key systems and the execution of improvements to application controls within our systems; and
4.implementing processes and controls to better identify and manage segregation of duties.
We will not be able to fully remediate the material weaknesses until these steps have been completed and have been operating effectively for a sufficient period of time.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting, other than the remediation steps described above that are in process, that occurred during the three months ended November 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company, Wes Cummins, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, and David Rench, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, have been named as a defendants in a class action lawsuit that was filed in August 2023 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas (McConnell v. Applied Digital Corporation et al., Case No. 3:23-cv-1805). The case is in an early stage and the class has not yet been certified. The Company has not yet responded to the complaint. At this time, the Company is unable to estimate potential losses, if any, related to this action. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of these matters with certainty, we do not expect the results of this action to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. However, this matter is subject to uncertainties, and we could incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could adversely affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On November 15, 2023, a putative securities complaint, captioned Robert Weich v. Wes Cummins, Chuck Hastings, Kelli McDonald, Douglas Miller, Virginia Moore, and Richard Nottenburg, No. A-23-881629-C, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada against certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors and two of its officers, Chief Executive Officer Wesley Cummins and Chief Financial Officer David Rench, asserting breaches of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment from April 2022 through the present. The complaint alleges that the defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business, operations, and compliance policies. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the Company overstated the profitability of its datacenter hosting business and its ability to successfully transition into a low-cost cloud services provider and that the Company’s board of directors was not “independent” within the meaning of NASDAQ listing rules.
