Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
ORGANIZATION | ORGANIZATION Organization TeraWulf Inc. (“TeraWulf” or the “Company”) is a digital asset technology company with a core business of digital infrastructure and energy development to enable sustainable bitcoin mining. TeraWulf’s principal business consists of developing and operating bitcoin mining facilities in the United States that are fueled by clean, low cost and reliable power sources. The Company generates revenue in the form of bitcoin by providing hash computation services to a mining pool operator to mine bitcoin and validate transactions on the global bitcoin network using application-specific integrated circuit computers (“ASIC” or “miners”) owned by the Company. The earned bitcoin are routinely sold for U.S. dollars. The Company also earned revenue by providing miner hosting services to third parties. In 2024, the Company established WULF Compute as its internal innovation center, with a specific focus on the research, development, and deployment of its expansive and scalable digital infrastructure intended to support a broader high-performance computing (“HPC”) initiative, strategically aimed at diversifying the Company’s revenue streams. Given the increasing demand from high density compute loads, the Company's assets are well positioned to supply energy infrastructure with low cost, zero-carbon power. While the Company may choose to mine other digital currencies, it has no plans to do so currently. TeraWulf currently owns and operates, either independently or through a joint venture, two bitcoin mining facilities: the Lake Mariner Facility located in upstate New York (the “Lake Mariner Facility”) and the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility located in central Pennsylvania (the “Nautilus Cryptomine Facility”). The Company’s wholly-owned Lake Mariner Facility began mining bitcoin in March 2022 and, as of March 31, 2024, the Company has energized three buildings and additional infrastructure comprising 160 MW of capacity. The Nautilus Cryptomine Facility, which has been developed and constructed through a joint venture (see Note 11), commenced mining operations in February 2023 and, in April 2023, achieved full energization of the Company’s allotted infrastructure capacity of 50 MW. On December 13, 2021, TeraWulf Inc. completed a strategic business combination (the “Merger”) with IKONICS Corporation (“IKONICS”) , a Minnesota corporation, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company effectively acquired IKONICS and became a publicly traded company on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (“Nasdaq”), which was the primary purpose of the business combination. IKONICS’ traditional business was the development and manufacturing of high-quality photochemical imaging systems for sale primarily to a wide range of printers and decorators of surfaces. Customers’ applications were primarily screen printing and abrasive etching. TeraWulf initially classified the IKONICS business as held for sale and discontinued operations in its consolidated financial statements. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company completed sales of substantially all of IKONICS’ historical net assets (see Note 3). Subsequent to the asset sales, IKONICS’ name was changed to RM 101 Inc. (“RM 101”). Risks and Uncertainties Liquidity and Financial Condition The Company incurred a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $9.9 million and generated cash flows from continuing operations of $22.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had balances of cash and cash equivalents of $45.8 million, a working capital deficiency of $67.8 million, total stockholders’ equity of $272.3 million and an accumulated deficit of $269.5 million. As of March 31, 2024, the working capital deficiency included the then outstanding $106.0 million principal balance of the Company’s Term Loans (See Note 9) which matures on December 1, 2024. The Company had 8.0 EH/s of operating capacity across the Lake Mariner Facility and the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility as of March 2024. To date, the Company has relied primarily on proceeds from its issuances of debt and equity and sale of bitcoin, both self-mined and distributed from the joint venture which owns the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility (see Note 11), to fund its principal operations. In accordance with development of its bitcoin mining facilities, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company invested approximately $47.0 million for purchases of and deposits on plant and equipment. TeraWulf expects to fund its business operations and incremental infrastructure buildout primarily through positive cash flows from operations, including sales of bitcoin, both self-mined and distributed from the joint venture which owns the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility, cash on the balance sheet and the issuance of equity securities. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company achieved significant milestones by initiating and delivering rapid organic growth at the Lake Mariner Facility, and commencing operations at the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility, resulting in positive cash flows from continuing operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company additionally accomplished several notable steps to continue to achieve positive cash flows from operations, namely: (1) the Company repaid $33.4 million of outstanding principal of its Term Loans to remove the fixed principal amortization and extend the excess cash flow sweep through maturity (see Note 9), (2) the Company received net proceeds of $50.7 million through the issuance of shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), (3) the Company received bitcoin distributions of $12.0 million from the joint venture which owns the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility, (4) the Company received substantially all contracted miners from the miner suppliers and has no remaining outstanding financial commitments under the miner purchase agreements (see Notes 11 and 12) for the existing operations at the Lake Mariner Facility and the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility, (5) the construction activities at the Lake Mariner Facility for buildings one, two and three and at the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility are complete as of March 31, 2024, although the Company intends to expand its infrastructure. Additionally, if a business need requires its use, the Company has an active at-the-market sales agreement for sale of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $200.0 million (the “ATM Sales Agreement”), which had a remaining capacity of $28.9 million as of March 31, 2024. The issuance of Common Stock under this agreement would be made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration statement No. 333-262226). The Company has determined that it is probable that it will generate positive cash flows from operations and be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business, including the Term Loans through maturity, based on its expected range of forecasted bitcoin prices, network hashrate, and power prices and, therefore, there is not substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through at least the next twelve months. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from TeraWulf’s possible inability to continue as a going concern.
