CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements for purposes of federal and state securities laws. These forward-looking statements involve uncertainties that could significantly affect our financial or operating results. These forward-looking statements may be identified by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “foresee,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would” “could” and “should” and the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements in this document include, among other things, statements regarding our business plan, business strategy and operations in the future. In addition, all statements that address operating performance and future performance, events or developments that are expected or anticipated to occur in the future, including statements relating to creating value for stockholders, are forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Matters and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements include but are not limited to the matters and factors described in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of Greenidge's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 31, 2022 and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC, which should be reviewed carefully. Please consider Greenidge's forward-looking statements in light of those risks.

Greenidge Generation Holdings Inc.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Greenidge Generation Holdings Inc. (“Greenidge”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) own and operate a vertically integrated cryptocurrency datacenter and power generation company. The Company owns and operates facilities at two locations: the Town of Torrey, New York and Spartanburg, South Carolina. The Company’s cryptocurrency datacenter operations generate revenue in the form of bitcoin by earning bitcoin as rewards and transaction fees for supporting the global bitcoin network with application-specific integrated circuit computers (“ASICs” or “miners”) owned or leased by the Company. The earned bitcoin is then exchanged for U.S. dollars. The Company owns and operates a 106 megawatt ("MW") power facility that is connected to the New York Independent System Operator (“NYISO”) power grid. The Company sells electricity to the NYISO at all times when its power plant is running and increases or decreases the amount of electricity sold based on prevailing prices in the wholesale electricity market and demand for electricity.

Merger with Support.com, Inc.

On September 14, 2021, GGH Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Greenidge, merged with and into Support.com, Inc. (“Support.com”), with Support.com continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Greenidge, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated March 19, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), among Greenidge, Support.com and Merger Sub.

 

The Merger combined the respective businesses of Greenidge and Support.com through an all-stock transaction and has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations, with Greenidge being deemed the acquiring company for accounting purposes (see Note 3). Prior to the Merger, Greenidge's class A common stock ("class A common stock") was registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and, upon completion of the Merger on September 15, 2021, began trading on The Nasdaq Global Select Market ("Nasdaq") under the ticker symbol “GREE”. Concurrently, Support.com deregistered its shares pursuant to the Exchange Act.

 

Support.com provides solutions and technical programs to customers delivered by home-based employees. Support.com’s homesourcing model, which enables outsourced work to be delivered by people working from home, has been specifically designed for remote work, with attention to security, recruiting, training, delivery, and employee engagement. Since the consummation of the Merger, the Support.com business operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary and a segment of Greenidge.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Presentation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

In the opinion of Greenidge management, the accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results for the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future interim period. The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAPUnited States Generally Accepted Accounting Standards ("GAAP") for complete financial statements.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statements of the Company in Greenidge's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during 2022.

In accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern, the Company’s management evaluated whether there are conditions or events that pose risk associated with the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements have been issued. The Company’s condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the price of bitcoin decreased approximately 57% and the price of natural gas increased approximately 53%. The Company’s profit and cash flows are impacted significantly by volatility in the prices of bitcoin and natural gas, and the volatility in these commodity prices significantly impacted the Company's results during the three months ended June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2022, the Company had $66.4 million of cash and $0.6 million of bitcoin holdings at fair value, while having $33.4 million of accounts payable and accrued expenses, as well as $65 million of principal payments plus interest payments on debt due within the next 12 months.

7


The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has evaluated different options to improve its liquidity to fund the Company’s expenses and to support the Company’s debt servicing requirements. These options include, but are not limited to:

selling or monetizing certain assets, including but not limited to sales of additional miners, sales of surplus mining infrastructure equipment, or sales of unannounced and undeveloped locations the Company was evaluating for expansion;
issuances of equity, including but not limited to issuances under the 2022 Purchase Agreement (as defined below);
migrating certain of its equipment to lower cost locations; and
negotiating with lenders to modify the terms of certain of the Company’s existing financings.

On March 18, 2022, Greenidge issued a secured promissory note, as borrower, in favor of B. Riley Commercial Capital, LLC, as noteholder (the "Noteholder"), evidencing a $26.5 million aggregate principal amount loan by the Noteholder to Greenidge (the "Secured Promissory Note"). In the Company's efforts to further improve liquidity, Greenidge and the Noteholder amended the Secured Promissory Note on August 10, 2022. The amendment extended the maturity to June 2023, reduced scheduled monthly amortization payments and reduced mandatory prepayments. The Company has received proceeds of $57.3 million since October 2021 from sales of common stock under the 2021 Purchase Agreement (as defined below) and the 2022 Purchase Agreement (as defined below), of which $2.4 million of proceeds, net of discounts, was received during the three months ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, the Company has sold certain of its miners and equipment during the three months ended June 30, 2022 for proceeds of $1.9 million.

While the Company believes it will be successful in its efforts to implement the options to improve liquidity, which will allow it to meet its financial commitments for at least the next twelve months, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year'speriod presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements, Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application.

7


Table of Contents

This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. As an emerging growth company, the Company has elected to adopt this pronouncement following the effective date for private companies beginning with periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. MERGER WITH SUPPORT.COM

As described in Note 1, on September 14, 2021, Greenidge and Support.com combined their respective businesses through an all-stock merger transaction where Support.com became a wholly owned subsidiary of Greenidge. The Merger has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Greenidge was determined to be the acquiring company for accounting purposes.

 

Results of Support.com Operations Since the Merger

For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022, the acquired Support.com business contributed $8.58.4 million in revenue and $1.51.7 million of operating income, which includes approximately $0.2 million of amortization expenses of acquired intangible assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the acquired Support.com business contributed $16.9 million in revenue and $3.2 million of operating income, which includes approximately $0.5 million of amortization expenses of acquired intangible assets.

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Effective September 14, 2021, following the completion of the Merger (see Notes 1 and 3), Support.com began operating within the Company as a separate operating and reporting segment; therefore, Greenidge has 2 operating and reporting segments since the Merger: (i) Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation and (ii) Support Services.

The Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment generates revenue primarily by earning bitcoin, with miners that are owned by the Company, as rewards and transaction fees for supporting the global bitcoin network. The Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment also sells surplus electricity generated by its power plant, and not consumed in cryptocurrency datacenter operations, to the NYISO power grid at prices set on a daily basis through the NYISO wholesale market. In addition, the Company receives revenues from the sale of its capacity and ancillary services in the NYISO wholesale market. The Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment operates in the United States.

The Support Services segment provides solutions and technical programs to customers delivered by home-based employees. The Support Services segment provides customer service, sales support, and technical support primarily to large corporations, businesses and professional services organizations. The Support Services segment also earns revenues for end-user software products provided

Table of Contents

through direct customer downloads and sales via partners. The Support Services segment operates primarily in the United States, but also has employees located in Philippines, India, Mexico, Colombia and Canada, including those staff providing support services.

The Company’s measure of profit or loss for segment reporting is income (loss) before income taxes, interest and depreciation and amortization and adjusted for share based compensation and excluding items not indicative of ongoing business trends (referred to as “segment“Segment Adjusted EBITDA”). This is the measure used by the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker to assess performance and allocate resources.

Total depreciation expense was $3.74.9 million and $1.31.6 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $8.8 million and $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows, based on prevailing market conditions, from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset is written down to fair value.

As a result of the significant reduction in the price of bitcoin and increased energy prices during the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized a noncash impairment charge of $71.5 million for the assets associated with the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment to reduce the net book value of the long-lived assets to fair value. Fair value was

10


determined utilizing the market approach. The excess of the book value over the estimated fair value was allocated to the long-lived assets of the Cryptocurrency and Power Generation segment.

Additionally, as a result of the impairment assessment, the Company has reevaluated the useful lives of the assets and adjusted the lives of the miners from 5 years to 3 years and the lives of plant infrastructure from 15 - 39 years to 10 years effective July 1, 2022.

As of March 31, 2022, there was approximately $0.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested common stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average vesting period of approximately 1.4 years.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million and $0.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

11. INCOME TAXES

 

The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates or tax status is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.

The Company's effective tax rate was 46.2% and 36.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was different from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state income taxes and tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 includes the recognition of a deferred tax liability caused by the reorganization from a limited liability company to a corporation during the first quarter of 2021.

The Company continues to evaluate the realizability of its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and will adjust such amounts in light of changing facts and circumstances. In making such an assessment, management would consider all available positive and negative evidence, including the level of historical taxable income, future reversals of existing temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and projected future taxable income.

12. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The diluted earnings per share is computed by assuming the exercise, settlement, and vesting of all potential dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period using the treasury stock method.

16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events have been evaluated through May 16, 2022, the date at which the condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued, and the Company has concluded that no such events or transactions took place that would require disclosure herein except as stated directly below.

Equity Purchase Agreement with B. Riley Principal Capital, LLC

In April 2022, Greenidge and the Investor terminated the 2021 Purchase Agreement and entered into a new Purchase Agreement.

As disclosed in Note 9, Greenidge entered into the 2021 Purchase Agreement with the Investor whereby the Company had the right to sell to the Investor a certain amount of its class A common stock, subject to certain conditions and limitations, from time to time during the term of the 2021 Purchase Agreement. Greenidge and the Investor entered into a mutual termination agreement on April 6, 2022 (the "Mutual Termination"), which became effective immediately upon signing. Prior to the termination, the Company had sold an aggregate of 2,547,500 shares of class A common stock pursuant to the 2021 Purchase Agreement representing proceeds of $54.9 million, net of discounts, under the 2021 Purchase Agreement. The Company did not incur any early termination penalties as a result of the Mutual Termination.

On April 7 2022, Greenidge entered into a new common stock purchase agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Common Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 13, 2022 (as amended, the “2022 Purchase Agreement”) with the Investor. Pursuant to the 2022 Purchase Agreement, Greenidge has the right to sell to the Investor up to $500 million in shares of its class A common stock, subject to certain limitations and the satisfaction of specified conditions in the 2022 Purchase Agreement, from time to time over the 24-month period commencing on April 28, 2022.

The per share purchase price for the shares of class A common stock that Greenidge elects to sell to the Investor pursuant to the 2022 Purchase Agreement will be determined by reference to the volume weighted average price of the class A common stock (“VWAP”) during the full primary (or “regular”) trading session on Nasdaq on the applicable purchase date, calculated in accordance with the 2022 Purchase Agreement, or, if the total aggregate number (or “volume”) of class A common stock traded on Nasdaq reaches a certain threshold amount (calculated in accordance with the 2022 Purchase Agreement) prior to the official close of the regular trading session on Nasdaq on such purchase date, then the VWAP will be calculated only for the period beginning at the official open (or “commencement”) of the regular trading session and ending at the time the volume of class A common stock traded on Nasdaq reaches such threshold amount (such period for each purchase, the “Purchase Valuation Period”), less a fixed 5% discount to the VWAP for the Purchase Valuation Period, which shall be increased to 6% at such time that Greenidge has received aggregate cash proceeds of $200,000,000 from all prior sales of class A common stock to the Investor under the 2021 Purchase Agreement and the 2022 Purchase Agreement.

The per share purchase price for the shares of class A common stock that Greenidge elects to sell to the Investor in an intraday purchase pursuant to the 2022 Purchase Agreement will be calculated in the same manner as in the case of a regular purchase, provided that the VWAP for such intraday purchase will be measured during the portion of the normal trading hours on Nasdaq on the applicable purchase date that will begin 30 minutes after the latest of (i) the time that the applicable intraday purchase notice is timely received by the Investor, (ii) the time that the Purchase Valuation Period for any prior regular purchase effected on the same purchase date (if any) has ended and (iii) the time that the Intraday Purchase Valuation Period (defined below) for the most recent prior intraday purchase effected on the same purchase date (if any) has ended, and ending at the earlier of (x) the official close of the regular trading session on Nasdaq on such purchase date and (y) the time the volume of shares of class A common stock traded on Nasdaq reaches a certain threshold amount calculated in accordance with the 2022 Purchase Agreement (such period for each intraday purchase, the “Intraday Purchase Valuation Period”), less a fixed 5% discount to the VWAP for the Intraday Purchase Valuation Period, which shall be increased to 6% at such time that Greenidge has received aggregate cash proceeds of $200,000,000 from all prior sales of class A common stock to the Investor under the 2021 Purchase Agreement and the 2022 Purchase Agreement.

In addition, on April 13, 2022, Greenidge entered into Amendment No. 1 to the 2022 Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) with

the Investor. The Amendment provides for an additional feature that would cause the period used to determine the applicable purchase

14


price to be paid by the Investor for shares elected to be sold by Greenidge to terminate on the applicable purchase date if the trading

price of the class A common stock falls below a minimum price threshold. The Amendment also modifies the maximum amount of

shares of Greenidge’s class A common stock that Greenidge can elect to sell to the Investor in any single purchase effected by

Greenidge.

Under the applicable Nasdaq rules, unless stockholder approval is obtained, Greenidge may not sell more than 19.99% of the total number of shares of its class A common stock and class B common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the 2022 Purchase Agreement, which number of shares shall be reduced on a share-for-share basis by the number of shares of class A common stock that may be aggregated with the transactions contemplated by the 2022 Purchase Agreement under the applicable Nasdaq rules. Sales of common stock pursuant to the 2022 Purchase Agreement,

and the timing of any sales, are solely at the option of the Company, and the Company is under no obligation to sell any securities to the Investor under the 2022 Purchase Agreement.

In connection with the 2022 Purchase Agreement, Greenidge entered into a Registration Rights Agreementregistration rights agreement with the Investor, pursuant to which Greenidge agreed to prepare and file a registration statement registering the resale by the Investor of those shares of Greenidge’s class A common stock to be issued under the 2022 Purchase Agreement. The registration statement became effective on April 28, 2022 (the "Effective Date"), relating to the resale of 5,720,951 shares of Greenidge’s class A common stock in connection with the 2022 Purchase Agreement.

From April 28,the Effective Date to June 30, 2022, to May 16, 2022, weGreenidge issued 15,000553,587 shares of our class A common stock to the Investor pursuant to the 2022 Purchase Agreement for aggregate proceeds of approximately $0.1$2.4 million, net of discounts.

10. EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION

In February 2021, Greenidge adopted an equity incentive plan and reserved 3,831,112 shares of class A common stock for issuance under the plan (the “2021 Equity Plan”), applicable to employees and non-employee directors.

The value of common stock option grants is measured based on their fair market value on the date of grant and amortized over their requisite service periods. As of June 30, 2022, there was approximately $0.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested common stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average vesting period of approximately 1.78 years.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0.3 million and $0.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $0.7 million and $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

11. INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates or tax status is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.

The Company's effective tax rate was (16.8%) and (16.2%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were different from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to a charge of $15.0 million for the recognition of a valuation allowance during the three months ended June 30, 2022 for deferred tax assets, primarily related to historical net operating loss carryforwards of the Support.com business that was acquired in 2021, due to the reduced profitability caused by the declines in the price of bitcoin and the increased power costs. The Company's effective tax rate was 28.4% and 30.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 include the recognition of a deferred tax liability caused by the reorganization from a limited liability company to a corporation during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

The Company continues to evaluate the realizability of its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and will adjust such amounts in light of changing facts and circumstances. In making such an assessment, management would consider all available positive and negative evidence, including the level of historical taxable income, future reversals of existing temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and projected future taxable income.

12. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The diluted earnings per share is computed by assuming the exercise, settlement, and vesting of all potential dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period using the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic earnings and diluted per share of common stock.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, basic earnings per share is applicable only for the period from January 29, 2021 through June 30, 2021, which is the period following the reorganization of ContentsGreenidge Generation Holdings LLC (" GGH") into Greenidge and presents the period that the Company had outstanding common stock. Prior to the reorganization, there were 0 shares of common stock outstanding, and the limited liability structure of GGH consisted of member units. The Company analyzed the calculation of earnings per unit for periods prior to the reorganization and determined that it resulted in values that would not be meaningful to the users of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, there was 0 impact of dilution from any of the outstanding 482,153 RSUs or 576,563 common stock options due to the net loss, since inclusion of any impact from these awards would be antidilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, there were 0 shares excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Overview

Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation Segment

We own cryptocurrency datacenter operations in the Town of Torrey, New York (the "New York Facility") and in Spartanburg, South Carolina (the “South Carolina Facility” and, together with the New York Facility, the “facilities”). The New York Facility is a vertically integrated cryptocurrency datacenter and power generation facility with an approximately 106 megawatt (“MW”) natural gas power generation facility that has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years.facility. We generate all the power we require for our cryptocurrency datacenter operations in the New York Facility, where we enjoy low power costsrelatively lower market prices for natural gas due to our access to the Millennium Gas Pipeline price hub, which provides relatively low market rates for natural gas.hub. At the South Carolina Facility, we purchase power from a supplier of approximately 60% zero-carbon sourced energy. We believe our competitive advantages include relatively low fixed costs, an efficient mining fleet and in-house operational expertise. We are currently mining bitcoin and contributing to the security and transactability of the bitcoin ecosystem while concurrently supplying power to assist in meeting the power needs of homes and businesses in the region served by our New York Facility.

As of March 31,June 30, 2022, we powered approximately 5683 MW of mining capacity capable of producing an estimated aggregate hash rate of 1.62.5 EH/s at our facilities, substantially all of which is dedicated to bitcoin mining. Our Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment generates revenue i) through the exchange of bitcoins earned by ASICsapplication-specific integrated circuit computers ("ASICs" or "miners") as rewards and transaction fees for U.S. dollars and, to a much lesser extent, through revenue earned from third parties for hosting ASICs owned by third parties and providing operations, maintenance and other blockchain related services to third parties and ii) through the sale of electricity generated by our power plant, and not consumed in cryptocurrency datacenter operations, to New York State’s power grid at prices set on a daily basis through the NYISONew York Independent System Operator ("NYISO") wholesale market. We opportunistically increase or decrease the total amount of electricity sold by the power plant based on prevailing prices in the wholesale electricity market.

We believe that, ourover the long-term, behind-the-meter power generation capability provides a stable, cost-effective source of power for cryptocurrency datacenter activities. Our behind-the-meter power generation capability provides us with stable delivery due to the absence of any contract negotiation risk with third-party power suppliers, the absence of transmission and distribution cost risk and the firm delivery of natural gas for our New York Facility via our captive pipeline. Furthermore, our New York Facility has operated with minimal downtime for maintenance and repairs over recent years. Notwithstanding the structural stability of our behind-the-meter capabilities, we do however procure natural gas at our New York Facility through a third-party energy manager which schedules delivery of our natural gas needs from the wholesale market which is subject to price volatility. We procure the majority of our natural gas at spot prices and enter into fixed price forward contracts from time to time for the purchase of a portion of anticipated natural gas purchases based on prevailing market conditions to partially mitigate the financial impacts of natural gas price volatility and to manage commodity risk. These forward contracts qualify for the normal purchases and sales exception under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 815, Derivatives and Hedging, as it is probable that these contracts will result in physical delivery.

Volatility in the natural gas market mayhas impacted and will continue to impact our results of operations and financial performance. Natural gas prices have been on an upward trajectory since June of 2021 and are expected to continue at elevated levels during 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the price of natural gas increased approximately 53%, which is currently affecting, and has affected, the performance of our business. Volatility in the natural gas market may be caused by disruption in the delivery of fuel, including disruptions as a result of the outbreak or escalation of military hostilities, weather, transportation difficulties, global demand and supply dynamics, labor relations, environmental regulations or the financial viability of fuel suppliers. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Risks Related to our Power Generation Operations” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we deployed approximately 2,100 additional miners, bringing our total miners to approximately 19,400, capable of producing an estimated aggregate hash rate of approximately 1.6 EH/s and consumingThe Company had mining capacity of approximately 56 MW. At March 31, 2022, we had2.5 EH/s from approximately 29,60027,500 miners ordered from Bitmain anticipatedat June 30, 2022. The Company has revised its development plan and now expects to be deliveredhave at least 3.6 EH/s of mining capacity by the endfirst quarter of 2023. The Company expects to have ample mining infrastructure available at its locations in New York and South Carolina to accommodate this capacity and has substantially all of the year, representing approximately 3.1 EH/smining infrastructure equipment on hand including the required transformers, switchgear, PDUs and portable mining structures. Following a planned upgrade of the electrical service at its location in additional capacity, including our launch order for Bitmain’s new Antminer S19 XP. These new advanced minersSpartanburg, South Carolina in late 2022 or early 2023, the Company expects to have substantially greater hash rate capacities and use electric power more efficiently than our existing miner fleet.50 megawatts of electrical service available at the site.

In the second quarter of 2022, the Company began to reduce its inventory of older, less efficient mining equipment in order to free up mining capacity for newer more, efficient miners in its order book. The Company expects this trend to continue during the second half of 2022, and the Company may also consider other assets sales, including but not limited to sales of surplus mining infrastructure equipment, to further enhance its liquidity position.

Title V Air Permit

In late June 2022, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (“NYDEC”), announced its denial of the Title V air permit renewal for our New York Facility. The Company filed a notice with the NYDEC on July 28, 2022 requesting a hearing on NYDEC’s decision. Having timely completed its application to renew its Title V air permit, the Company is permitted to operate uninterrupted under a State Administrative Procedures Act extension, in full compliance with its existing Title V Air Permit, until four months after final resolution of the adjudicatory hearing process. While no adjudicatory proceedings have been scheduled to date, the Company expects that the appeals process may take a number of years to fully resolve.

Total revenue increased $26.6$15.2 million, or 240.4%94%, to $31.3 million during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period. The increase in revenue was driven primarily by the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment, specifically our cryptocurrency datacenter operations. The revenue from our cryptocurrency datacenter operations increased due to our

Total cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, increased 261.1%$13.7 million, or 290%, to $16.6$18.4 million in the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period due to the significant increase in cryptocurrency datacenter fleet requiring an increase in the use of megawatt hours ("MWh"). Additionally, the cost of revenue per MWh (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased significantly for both cryptocurrency datacenter operations and power and capacity operations primarily due to a significant increase in the natural gas cost per dekatherm, which increased approximately 83%212% in the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021. The MergerSupport Services segment added $4.1$3.6 million to cost of revenue, or 88.9%, to total cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period.period, in which there were no comparable costs as it was prior to the Merger.

Total cost of revenue as a percentage of total revenue increased due primarily to the inclusion of the Support Services Segment, which operates at a lower margin than our Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation Segment, and also due to the impact of the higher cost of natural gas combined with the lower price of bitcoin on the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $11.2$7.5 million, or 345.7%206%, to $11.1 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period. The increased costs are a result of higher headcount and administrative expenses including professional fees associated with being a public company, The Company has also incurred increased costs associated with permits for the Company’s New York facility. The Support Services segment added $2.8 million to Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period, primarily duein which there were no comparable costs as it was prior to costs related to operating as a public company and costs of corporate infrastructure to support the Company’s growth, including $2.1 million of costs related to assessing potential expansion opportunities, costs of insurance, and wages associated with increased headcount. In addition, the Merger added $2.6 million of selling, general and administrative expenses.Merger.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased $2.7$3.3 million, or 215.5%204%, to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period primarily due to the purchase and deployment of additional miners. Additionally, the acquisition of

Support.comMerger increased depreciation and amortization by $0.3 million or 25.8%, for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period.

Impairment of long-lived assets

As a result of the significant reduction in the price of bitcoin and increased energy prices during the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized a nonrecurring, noncash impairment of $71.5 million for the assets associated with the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment to reduce the net book value of the long-lived assets to fair value. Fair value was determined utilizing the market approach. The excess of the book value over the fair value was allocated to the long-lived assets of the Cryptocurrency and Power Generation segment.

As a result of the impairment assessment, the Company has reevaluated the useful lives of the long-lived assets and adjusted the lives of the miners from 5 to 3 years and the lives of plant infrastructure from 15 - 39 years to 10 years effective July 1, 2022.

Remeasurement of environmental liabilities

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized a charge of $11.1 million for the remeasurement of an environmental liability as a result of an update in the cost estimates associated to coal combustion residual ("CCR") liabilities associated with the property of our New York Facility as part of our continuing evaluation of the site.

Income (loss) from operations

Greenidge reported incomea loss from operations of $2.5$(86.1) million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to $1.9income from operations of $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2021. The increasedecline in the income (loss) from operations during the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period was driven by the nonrecurring, noncash charge of $71.5 million for the impairment of long-lived assets and the $11.1 million charge for the remeasurement of an environmental liability described above, as well as lower gross profit from the cryptocurrency datacenter operations caused by the increased natural gas cost, higher depreciation due to the expansion of the datacenter operations and higher costs to support the growth and cost of becoming a public company.

Adjusted loss from operations was $(2.9) million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to adjusted income from operations of $6.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decline in the Adjusted (loss) income from operations during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 was driven by the increased cryptocurrency datacenter operations, partially offset by the increased natural gas cost and higher costs to support our overall growth, including costs of being a public company, expansion costs and higher depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted income from operations was $4.8$9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of 143.2% as compared to the same period of 2021. The improvement in adjusted operating (loss) income as compared to the same period of 2021 is primarily attributable to an increase in bitcoin mining hash rate, partially offset by higher costs primarilyof revenues relative to revenue due to the increased cost of natural gas andcombined with the decline in the price of bitcoin. Additionally, adjusted (loss) income from operations declined due to higher depreciation and amortization. Adjusted income from operations is a non-GAAP performance measure.amortization, partially offset by the increased bitcoin mining hash rate. A reconciliation of reported amounts to adjusted amounts can be found in the "Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations" section of this MD&A.

Other (expense) income,expense, net

During the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022, Greenidge incurred an increase of $5.9 million of other expense, as compared to other income in the same period of 2021, primarily due to increased interest expense associated with the incurrence of debt to finance the expansion of the mining fleet.

(Benefit) provisionProvision for income taxes

The Company recognized an income tax benefitprovision of $0.4$15.5 million, or an effective tax rate of 46.2%,(16.8%) during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 and a provision for income taxes of $0.7$1.4 million, or an effective tax rate of 36.4%28.4%, during the three months ended March 31, 2021.June 30, 2021 due to the recording of a $15.0 million charge for a valuation allowance during the three months ended June 30, 2022 for deferred tax assets, primarily related to historical net operating loss carryforwards of the Support.com business that was acquired in 2021, due to the reduced profitability caused by the declines in the price of bitcoin and the increased power costs. The effective tax raterates for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was different from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state income taxes and tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2021 includesinclude the recognition of a deferred tax liability caused by the reorganization from a limited liability company to a corporation during the first quarter ofthree months ended March 31, 2021.

Net (Loss) Income(loss) income

As a result of the factors described above, Greenidge incurred a net loss of $0.4$(107.9) million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to net income of $1.3$3.5 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2021.

On an adjusted basis, excluding the after-tax impact of the Merger-relatedimpairment of long-lived assets, the remeasurement of environmental liabilities, Merger and other costs, costs associated with becoming a public company and expansions costs and the tax charge for a valuation allowance, adjusted net (loss) income during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 would have been $1.3($9.6) million as compared to $1.4$4.2 million in the same period in 2021. Adjusted net (loss) income is a non-GAAP performance measure. A reconciliation of reported amounts to adjusted amounts can be found in the "Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations" section of this MD&A.

Revenue

Cryptocurrency datacenter revenue

For itsour cryptocurrency datacenter revenue, we generate electricity on-site from our power plant located at the New York Facility and use that electricity to power ASIC miners, generating bitcoin that we then exchange for U.S. dollars or hold in our wallet. Our cryptocurrency datacenter revenue increased by $14.2$6.0 million, or 158.2%43%, during the three months ended March 31, 2022. SuchJune 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period. The increase was attributable to our increased mining fleet resulting in a 267.3%193% increase in the average hash rate during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2022. The increased average hash rate, partially offset by a higher average mining difficulty, led to us producing 561621 bitcoins in the firstsecond quarter of 2022 as compared to 213315 bitcoins in the firstsecond quarter of 2021. The increased number of bitcoins produced, partiallydespite being offset by the 30% lower average bitcoin price in 2022, resulted in the significant growth in cryptocurrency datacenter revenue.

Power and capacity revenue

Power and capacity revenue at our New York Facility is earned when we sell capacity and energy and ancillary services to the wholesale power grid managed by the NYISO. Through these sales, we earn revenue in three streams, including:streams: (1) power revenue received based on the hourly price of power, (2) capacity revenue for committing to sell power to the NYISO when dispatched and (3) other ancillary service revenue received as compensation for the provision of operating reserves. Our power and capacity revenue increased 186.7%$0.7 million, or 35%, to $5.9$2.9 million during the firstsecond quarter of 2022 as compared to the prior year as a result of higher prices, signified by the higher power and capacity revenue per MWh, and an increase in volume, signified by the increase in power and capacity MWh. Due to more severe weather in the month of January 2022 as compared to 2021, we curtailed cryptocurrency datacenter operations at the New York Facility for a period of time when there was a spike in power demand, which coincided with higher prices for electricity.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA

Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment increaseddecreased to $7.3$0.8 million for the firstsecond quarter of 2022 from $4.2$8.1 million in the firstsecond quarter of 2021. The increase in segment Adjusted EBITDAdecrease was driven by the significant increaseincreased cost of natural gas and decline in cryptocurrency datacenter operations due to the expansionprice of our mining fleet, as well as the higher pricing for power during the first quarter of 2022 due to weather conditions in New York during January 2022. The increased revenue wasbitcoin, partially offset by higher costs, including higher natural gas cost andthe increased administrative costs to support the business expansion.bitcoin mining hash rate.

Cryptocurrency datacenter revenue per MWh and power and capacity revenue per MWh are used by management to consider the extent to which it will generate electricity to either produce cryptocurrency or sell power to the New York wholesale power market. Cost of revenue (excluding depreciation and amortization) per MWh represents a measure of the cost of natural gas, emissions credits, payroll and benefits and other direct production costs associated with the MWhs produced to generate the respective revenue category for each MWh utilized. Depreciation and amortization costs are excluded from the cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) per MWh metric; therefore, not all cost of revenues for cryptocurrency datacenter and power and capacity are fully reflected. To the extent any other cryptocurrency datacenters are public or may go public, the cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) per MWh metric may not be comparable because some competitors may include depreciation in their cost of revenue figures.

Support Services Segment

Greenidge acquired Support.com, which constitutes the Support Services segment as of close of business on September 14, 2021. As such, there were no operations included in our consolidated results in the second quarter of 2021. Support Services had revenue of $8.4 million and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $2.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The contract associated with the Support Services segment's largest customer, which accounted for approximately 20% of the Company's consolidated revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2022, expires on December 31, 2022, and there are no assurances that the contract will be renewed beyond that date.

Total revenue increased $41.8 million, or 153%, to $69.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period. The increase in revenue was driven primarily by the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment. The

26


revenue from our cryptocurrency datacenter operations increased due to our significantly expanded miner fleet over the last year; however, the growth from the miner fleet expansion was significantly offset by lower bitcoin prices. The Support Services segment contributed revenue $16.9 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period in which there was no related revenue included as it was prior to the Merger.

Refer to the "Segment Results of Operations - Six Months Ended June 30" of this MD&A for a more detailed discussion of revenues from the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment and the Support Services segment.

Total cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, increased $25.8 million, or 282%, to $35.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period due to the significant increase in cryptocurrency datacenter fleet requiring an increase in the use of MWh. Additionally, the cost of revenue per MWh (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased significantly for both cryptocurrency datacenter operations and power and capacity operations primarily due to a significant increase in the natural gas cost per dekatherm, which increased approximately 141% in the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period of 2021. The Support Services segment added $7.6 million to total cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period, in which there were no comparable costs as it was prior to the Merger.

Total cost of revenue as a percentage of total revenue increased due primarily to due to the impact of the higher cost of natural gas combined with the lower price of bitcoin on the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $18.7 million, or 274%, to $25.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period. The increased costs are a result of higher headcount and administrative expenses including professional fees associated with being a public company, The Company has also incurred increased costs associated with permits for the Company’s New York facility. The Support Services segment added $5.4 million to Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period, in which there were no comparable costs as it was prior to the Merger.

Merger and other costs

Merger and other costs represented costs associated with the Merger, as well as professional and other fees associated with becoming a publicly traded company during 2021.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased $6.0 million or 209%, to $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period primarily due to the purchase and deployment of additional miners. Additionally, the Merger increased depreciation and amortization by $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year period.

Impairment of long-lived assets

As a result of the significant reduction in the price of bitcoin and increased energy prices during the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized a nonrecurring, noncash impairment of $71.5 million for the assets associated with the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment to reduce the net book value of the long-lived assets to fair value. Fair value was determined utilizing the market approach. The excess of the book value over the fair value was allocated to the long-lived assets of the Cryptocurrency and Power Generation segment.

27


As a result of the impairment assessment, the Company has reevaluated the useful lives of the long-lived assets and adjusted the lives of the miners from 5 to 3 years and the lives of plant infrastructure from 15 - 39 years to 10 years effective July 1, 2022.

Remeasurement of environmental liabilities

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized a charge of $11.1 million for the remeasurement of an environmental liability as a result of an update in the cost estimates associated to CCR liabilities associated with the Company's New York Facility as part of our continuing evaluation of the site.

Income (loss) from operations

Greenidge reported loss from operations of $(83.6) million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to income from operations of $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decline in the (loss) income from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2022, was driven by the nonrecurring, noncash charge of $71.5 million for the impairment of long-lived assets and the $11.1 million expense for the remeasurment of an environmental liability, as well as higher depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted income from operations was $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $6.5 million, or 77% as compared to the same period of 2021. The decrease in adjusted operating income is primarily attributable to higher costs of revenues relative to revenue due to the increased cost of natural gas combined with the decline in the price of bitcoin. Additionally, adjusted income from operations declined due to higher depreciation and amortization. These negative impacts on Adjusted income from operations were partially offset by the increased bitcoin mining hash rate. Adjusted income from operations is a non-GAAP performance measure. A reconciliation of reported amounts to adjusted amounts can be found in the "Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations" section of this MD&A.

Other expense, net

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior period, Other expense, net increased $9.3 million primarily due to increased interest expense associated with the incurrence of debt to finance the expansion of the mining fleet.

Provision for income taxes

The Company recognized an income tax provision of $15.1 million, or an effective tax rate of (16.2%) during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and a provision for income taxes of $2.1 million, or an effective tax rate of 30.7%, during the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to the recording of a $15.0 million charge for a valuation allowance during the six months ended June 30, 2022 for the deferred tax assets, primarily related to historical net operating loss carryforwards of the Support.com business that was acquired in 2021, due to the reduced profitability caused by the declines in the price of bitcoin and the increased power costs. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2021 include the recognition of a deferred tax liability caused by the reorganization from an LLC to a corporation during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Net (loss) income

As a result of the factors described above, Greenidge incurred a net loss of $(108.3) million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to net income of $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

On an adjusted basis, excluding the after-tax impact of the impairment of long-lived assets, the remeasurement of environmental liabilities, Merger and other costs, expansions costs and the tax charge for the recognition of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, adjusted net (loss) income during the six months ended June 30, 2022 would have been ($7.8) million as compared to $5.7 million in the same period in 2021. Adjusted net (loss) income is a non-GAAP performance measure. A reconciliation of reported amounts to adjusted amounts can be found in the "Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations" section of this MD&A.

Cryptocurrency datacenter

For its cryptocurrency datacenter revenue, we generate electricity on-site from our power plant located at the New York Facility and use that electricity to power ASIC miners, generating bitcoin that we then exchange for U.S. dollars or hold in our wallet. Our cryptocurrency datacenter revenue increased by $20.2 million, or 88%, during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the prior period. The increase was attributable to our increased mining fleet resulting in a 222% increase in the average hash rate during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increased average hash rate, partially offset by a higher average mining difficulty, led to us producing 1,182 bitcoins in the first six months of 2022 as compared to 528 bitcoins in the first six months of 2021. The increased number of bitcoins produced, partially offset by the lower average bitcoin price in 2022, resulted in the growth in cryptocurrency datacenter revenue.

Power and capacity

Power and capacity revenue at our New York Facility is earned when we sell capacity and energy and ancillary services to the wholesale power grid managed by the NYISO. Through these sales, we earn revenue in three streams, including: (1) power revenue received based on the hourly price of power, (2) capacity revenue for committing to sell power to the NYISO when dispatched and (3) other ancillary service revenue received as compensation for the provision of operating reserves. Our power and capacity revenue increased 110% to $8.8 million during the first six months of 2022 as a result of higher prices, signified by the higher power and capacity revenue per MWh, and an increase in volume, signified by the increase in power and capacity MWh. Due to more severe weather in the month of January 2022 as compared to 2021, we curtailed cryptocurrency datacenter operations at the New York Facility for a period of time when there was a spike in power demand, which coincided with higher prices for electricity.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA

Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment decreased to $8.2 million for the first six months of 2022 from $12.5 million in the first six months of 2021. The decrease in Segment Adjusted EBITDA was driven by the increased cost of natural gas and lower price of bitcoin, partially offset by the bitcoin mining hash rate.

Cryptocurrency datacenter revenue per MWh and power and capacity revenue per MWh are used by management to consider the extent to which it will generate electricity to either produce cryptocurrency or sell power to the New York wholesale power market. Cost of revenue (excluding depreciation and amortization) per MWh represents a measure of the cost of natural gas, emissions credits, payroll and benefits and other direct production costs associated with the MWhs produced to generate the respective revenue category for each MWh utilized. Depreciation and amortization costs are excluded from the cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) per MWh metric; therefore, not all cost of revenues for cryptocurrency datacenter and power and capacity are fully reflected. To the extent any other cryptocurrency datacenters are public or may go public, the cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) per MWh metric may not be comparable because some competitors may include depreciation in their cost of revenue figures.

Support Services Segment

Greenidge acquired Support.com, which constitutes the Support Services segment as of close of business on September 14, 2021. As such, there were no operations included in our consolidated results in the first quartersix months of 2021. Support Services had revenue of $8.5$16.9 million and segmentSegment Adjusted EBITDA of $1.9$3.9 million in the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2022.

The contract associated with the Support Services segment's largest customer, which accounted for approximately 18% of the Company's consolidated revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2022, expires on December 31, 2022, and there are no assurances that the contract will be renewed beyond that date.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The most significant accounting estimates involve a high degree of judgment or complexity. Management believes the estimates and judgments most critical to the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and to the understanding of our reported financial results include those made in connection with goodwill and intangible assets, accounts receivable, digital assets, emissions expense and credits, environmental and asset retirement obligations and revenue recognition. Management evaluates its policies and assumptions on an ongoing basis.

Our significant accounting policies related to these accounts in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements are described under the heading “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical

2230


Table of Contents

Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. As of the date of this filing, there were no significant changes to any of the critical accounting policies and estimates previously described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.2021 with the exception of those described below.

Environmental Obligations

The Company has coal combustion residual ("CCR") liabilities associated with the closure of a coal ash pond located on the Company's property in the Town of Torrey, New York. In accordance with ASC 410-30, the Company has a liability of $13.8 million as of June 30, 2022, which includes a charge of $11.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 as a result of an update to the cost estimates as part of the Company's ongoing evaluation of the site. Estimates are based on various assumptions including, but not limited to, closure and post-closure cost estimates, timing of expenditures, escalation factors, and requirements of granted permits. Additional adjustments to the environment liability may occur periodically due to potential changes in remediation requirements regarding coal combustion residuals which may lead to material changes in estimates and assumptions.

Long-lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset would be written down to fair value.

As a result of the significant reduction in the price of bitcoin and increased energy prices during the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized a noncash impairment charge of $71.5 million for the assets associated with the Cryptocurrency Datacenter and Power Generation segment to reduce the net book value of the long-lived assets to fair value. Fair value was based upon a market approach. The excess of the book value over the estimated fair value was allocated to the long-lived assets of the Cryptocurrency and Power Generation segment.

Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations

The following non-GAAP measures are intended to supplement investors' understanding of our financial information by providing measures which investors, financial analysts and management use to help evaluate our operating performance. Items which we do not believe to be indicative of ongoing business trends are excluded from these calculations so that investors can better evaluate and analyze historical and future business trends on a consistent basis. Definitions of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similar definitions used by other companies. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP.

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 and other special items determined by management, including, but not limited to costs associated with the Merger, costs of becoming a public company (which included the costs of corporate reorganization from an limited liability company, public registration of shares and associated costs), business expansion costs, fair value adjustments for certain financial liabilities (including asset retirement obligations), costs associated with debt and equity transactions, and impairment charges as they are not indicative of business operations. Adjusted EBITDA is intended as a supplemental measure of our performance that is neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. Management 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 our financial measures with those of comparable companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, you should be aware that when evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, we may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. In addition, our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our 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. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our

GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation of net loss (income) to EBITDA (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA above and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On March 31,June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $96.5$66.4 million. To date, we have primarily relied on debt and equity financing to fund our operations and to meet ongoing working capital needs and to execute on the initial stages of our business plan. During the first quarterhalf of 2022, we obtained approximately $108 million of additional committed financings, of which approximately $81$98 million was funded during Marchthrough June 30, 2022, through two different agreements described further below.

We may seek to raise capital through alternative sources, such as a public offering, an additional private placement of our equity or debt securities or traditional or non-traditional credit facilities. If we raise additional equity financing, our stockholders may experience significant dilution of their ownership interests, and the per share value of our class A common stock could decline. Furthermore, if we engage in additional debt financing, the debt holders would likely have priority over our stockholders, on order of payment preference.

While we held a relatively small amount of digital assets for an extended period as of March 31,June 30, 2022, our current business strategy is to sell digital assets within a short period after earning such assets. We may choose to change this strategy in the future. The average period between receipt of bitcoin and the subsequent conversion to cash is less than one day because at least 95% of the bitcoin mined each day is liquidated the same day it is mined. Our liquidity is subject to volatility in both number of bitcoins mined and the underlying price of bitcoin.

The debt payments included in the table above include the principal, interest and risk premium amounts due. The lease payments include fixed monthly rental payments and exclude any variable payments.

At March 31,June 30, 2022, we had $135.3$92.0 million of cash on deposit for future miner purchases and have significant future commitments related to these purchases included in the table above.

Our operating cash flows are affected by several factors including the price of bitcoin and cost of electricity and natural gas; therefore, we may require additional capital in order to meet the commitments above. Management believes that our existing financial resources, combined with ourDuring the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s profit and cash flows are impacted significantly by volatility in the prices of bitcoin and natural gas. The ability to delay continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or alter our planned expansion steps, are sufficientobtaining the necessary financing to meet our operatingits obligations and capital requirementsrepay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has evaluated different options to improve its liquidity to fund the Company’s expenses and to support the Company’s debt servicing requirements. These options include, but are not limited to:

selling or monetizing certain assets, including but not limited to sales of additional miners, sales of surplus mining infrastructure equipment, or sales of unannounced and undeveloped locations the Company was evaluating for expansion;
issuances of equity, including but not limited to issuances under the Equity Purchase Agreement;
migrating certain of its equipment to lower cost locations; and
negotiating with lenders to modify the terms of certain of the Company’s existing financings.

In the Company's efforts to further improve liquidity, Greenidge and the Noteholder amended the Secured Promissory Note on August 10, 2022. The amendment is discussed further below under "Secured Promissory Note". The Company has received proceeds of $57.3 million since October 2021 from sales of common stock under the original and amended Equity Purchase Agreements, of which $2.4 million proceeds, net of discounts, was received during the three months ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, the Company has sold certain of its miners and other assets during the three months ended June 30, 2022 for proceeds of $1.9 million.

While the Company believes it will be successful in its efforts to implement the options to improve liquidity, which will allow it to meet its financial commitments for at least 12the next twelve months, from the datethere can be no assurance that these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. This is predicated on us achieving our forecast whichefforts will be successful. Management's ability to successfully implement these options could be negatively impacted by items outside of our control, in particular, significant decreases in the price of bitcoin, regulatory changes concerning cryptocurrency, increases in energy costs or other macroeconomic conditions (including if further COVID-19 outbreaks require further statewide shutdowns) and the other matters identified in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.2021 and Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

For the first threesix months ofended June 30, 2021, the net cash provided by financing activities consisted of $37.1 million in proceeds from issuance of preferred stock, $17.1 million of net proceeds from debt and finance lease obligations and $1.0 million of proceeds from stock options exercised, partially offset by $0.8$2.2 million of payments debt principal payments on debt.and capital lease obligations.

Master Equipment Finance Agreement

On March 21, 2022, Greenidge, as guarantor, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries GTX Gen 1 Collateral LLC, GNY Collateral LLC and GSC Collateral LLC (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a Master Equipment Finance Agreement (the “NYDIG Financing Agreement”) with NYDIG ABL LLC (“NYDIG”), as lender, whereby NYDIG agreed to lend to the Borrowers approximately $81 million under loan schedules that were partially funded for approximately $54.0$70.9 million in Marchthrough June 30, 2022 and will continue to be funded to finance the acquisition of certain bitcoin miners and related equipment (the “Financed Equipment”). The Borrower’s obligations under the NYDIG Financing Agreement are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Greenidge. Outstanding borrowings under the NYDIG Financing Agreement are secured by all assets of the Borrowers including without limitation the Financed Equipment and proceeds thereof (including bitcoin). The partially funded loan schedules bear interest at a rate of 13% per annum and have terms of twenty-five months. Certain loan schedules are interest-only for a specified period and otherwise payments on loan schedules include both an interest and principal payment.

Secured Promissory Note

In addition to the NYDIG Financing Agreement, on March 18, 2022, Greenidge also issued a secured promissory note, as borrower, in favor of B. Riley Commercial Capital, LLC, as noteholder (the “Noteholder”), evidencing a $26.5 million aggregate principal amount loan by the Noteholder to the Company (the “Secured Promissory Note”). The Secured Promissory Note is guaranteed by certain of Greenidge’s wholly-owned subsidiaries: Greenidge South Carolina LLC, GSC RE LLC and 300 Jones Road LLC. The loan outstanding under the Secured Promissory Note bears interest at a rate of 6% per annum and maturesoriginally matured on July 20, 2022, subject to up to five 30-day extensions that may be elected by Greenidge provided no Event of Default (as defined therein) has occurred and is continuing and Greenidge pays an Exit Fee (as defined therein) to the Noteholder. The Secured Promissory Note is secured by a first priority mortgage lien on certain real property together with related improvements, fixtures and personal property located at the South Carolina Facility. Greenidge’s obligations under the Secured Promissory Note may be prepaid in whole or in part without penalties or fees.

On August 10, 2022, Greenidge and the Noteholder agreed to amend the terms of the Secured Promissory Note, by extending the maturity to June 2023, reducing scheduled monthly amortization payments and revising the interest rate to 7.5%. The Exit Fees associated with the four 30-day extensions subsequent to August 10, 2022, were accelerated and added to the principal balance as of

34


that date. The principal balance following the amendment was $16.4 million as of August 10, 2022. Additionally mandatory repayments of the Secured Promissory Note were revised, such that 65% of the net cash proceeds received from sales of stock under the 2022 Purchase Agreement shall be paid to Noteholder to repay the Secured Promissory Note.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act ("JOBS Act"). As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:

have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);
submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency” and pay ratio; and
disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Its financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1.07 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our class A common stock that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of March 31,June 30, 2022, that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that all material information required to be filed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported when required and the information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the firstsecond quarter of 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in such matters may arise and harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results. For information on legal proceedings, refer to Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies—Legal Matters in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

On December 17, 2020, certain parties filed an Article 78 petition with the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Yates County, that challengedchallenges the Town of Torrey’s site plan review for the planned expansion of our cryptocurrency datacenter in the Town of Torrey.datacenter. We were joined in the petition as a necessary party. The petition asserted two errors by the Town of Torrey in its review of the site plan. In April, 2022, the Supreme Courtasserts, among other things, a violation of the State of New York Yates CountyEnvironmental Quality Review Act for failing to identify all areas of environmental concern or appropriately review the potential environmental impacts of the planned expansion of our data center. On April 7, 2022, the Supreme Court denied the parties’ petition.petition with prejudice, upholding the Town of Torrey’s site plan review on multiple, independent grounds. A notice of appeal has been filed but the appeal has not yet been perfected. The petitioners have until October 20, 2022, to do so, at which point, the appeal will proceed before the Appellate Division, Fourth Department. If they fail to do so, the appeal will be deemed abandoned. If the appeal proceeds, it may be time-consuming and costly, divert management resources, require us to change, postpone or halt the construction of our planned cryptocurrency datacenter expansion, or have other adverse effects on our business. In addition, costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce our approved building rights.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In evaluating our company and our business, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of“Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 includestogether with updates to those risk factors or new risk factors contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q below and any other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in these risk factors, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may have a discussionmaterial adverse effect on our business, reputation, revenue, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects, in which case the market price of our risk factors which are incorporated herein. Through the quarterly period covered bycommon stock could decline. Unless otherwise indicated, reference in this report, there have been nosection and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to our business being adversely affected, negatively impacted or harmed will include an adverse effect on, or a negative impact or harm to, our business, reputation, financial condition, results of operations, revenue and our future prospects. The material changes to the risk factors disclosedand other risks and uncertainties included in Greenidge'sour Annual Report on Form 10-K, summarized above in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and described below are not intended to be exhaustive and are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including the risks described below. Certain statements in the Risk Factors below are forward-looking statements. See the section titled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”.

Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, which illuminate challenges that we face in connection with the successful implementation of our strategy and the growth of our business. Our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial.

Risks Related to Our Business

Risks Related to Our Business Generally

It may take significant time, expenditure or effort for us to grow our business, including our cryptocurrency datacenter operations, through acquisitions, and our efforts may not be successful.

The number of bitcoin and other cryptocurrency datacenter companies has greatly increased in recent years. As we and other bitcoin/cryptocurrency datacenter companies seek to grow mining capacity or access additional sources of electricity to power growing datacenter operations, the acquisition of existing cryptocurrency datacenter companies and standalone electricity production facilities may become an attractive avenue of growth. Currently, we source our electricity for our cryptocurrency datacenter facility in New York from our captive 106 MW power generation facility. If we determine to expand our operations, we may want to do so through the acquisition of additional bitcoin or other cryptocurrency datacenter businesses or electricity generating power plants. We acquired and commenced operations at our Spartanburg, SC facility in December 2021; however, there can be no assurance that additional expansions will commence or that the expected benefits and advantages of such expansion will be realized. Further

37


attractive acquisition targets may not be available to us for a number of reasons, such as growing competition for attractive targets, economic or industry sector downturns, geopolitical tensions, regulatory changes, environmental challenges, increases in the cost of additional capital needed to close business combination or operate targets post-business combination. Our inability to identify and consummate acquisitions of attractive targets could have a material and adverse impact on our long-term growth prospects, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations, strategy and financial performance.

Additionally, we may engage in the acquisition of other companies, investments, joint ventures and strategic alliances outside of our Support Services segment’s current line of business to design and develop new technologies and products, to strengthen competitiveness by scaling up and to expand our existing business line into new regions. Such transactions, especially in new lines of business, inherently involve risk due to the difficulties in integrating operations, technologies, products and personnel. Integration issues are complex, time-consuming and expensive and, without proper planning and implementation, may adversely affect the existing business. We may incur significant acquisition, administrative and other costs in connection with these transactions, including costs related to integration or restructuring of acquired businesses. These investments may not provide a return or lead to an increase in our Support Services segment’s operating results, and the benefits of these investments may not be obtained. There can be no assurance that these transactions will be beneficial to our Support Services segment’s results of operations or financial condition. Even assuming these transactions are beneficial, there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully integrate the new business lines acquired or achieve all or any of the initial objectives of these transactions.

We have been, are currently, and may be in the future, the subject of legal proceedings, including governmental investigations, relating to our products or services.

On December 17, 2020, certain parties filed an Article 78 petition with the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Yates County, that challenges the Town of Torrey’s site plan review for the yearplanned expansion of our cryptocurrency datacenter. We were joined in the petition as a necessary party. The petition asserts, among other things, a violation of the State of New York Environmental Quality Review Act for failing to identify all areas of environmental concern or appropriately review the potential environmental impacts of the planned expansion of our data center. On April 7, 2022, the Supreme Court denied the petition with prejudice, upholding the Town of Torrey’s site plan review on multiple, independent grounds. A notice of appeal has been filed but the appeal has not yet been perfected. The petitioners have until October 20, 2022, to do so, at which point, the appeal will proceed before the Appellate Division, Fourth Department. If they fail to do so, the appeal will be deemed abandoned. If the appeal proceeds, it may be time-consuming and costly, divert management resources, require us to change, postpone or halt the construction of our planned cryptocurrency datacenter expansion, or have other adverse effects on our business. In addition, costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce our approved building rights.

Our substantial level of indebtedness and our current liquidity constraints could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to service our indebtedness, which could negatively impact your ability to recover your investment in our common stock.

Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not be able to meet our financial obligations as they fall due. We currently settle our financial obligations out of cash and cash equivalents. We have a planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support our normal spending requirements on an ongoing basis and our expansion plans.

We have a substantial amount of indebtedness, which requires significant interest payments. As of June 30, 2022, we and our subsidiaries had approximately $183 million aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding. Our substantial level of indebtedness and the current constraints on our liquidity could have important consequences, including the following:

we must use a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to pay interest and principal on our indebtedness, which reduces or will reduce funds available to us for other purposes, such as working capital, capital expenditures, other general corporate purposes and potential acquisitions;
our ability to refinance such indebtedness or to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or general corporate purposes may be impaired;
our leverage may be greater than that of some of our competitors, which may put us at a competitive disadvantage and reduce our flexibility in responding to current and changing industry and financial market conditions;
there are significant constraints on our ability to generate liquidity through incurring additional debt; and
we may be more vulnerable to economic downturn, further declines in the price of bitcoin or increases in the price of natural gas, and other adverse developments in our business.

We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, subject to the restrictions contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness. To the extent new indebtedness is added to our debt levels, the related risks that we now face could intensify.

38


Our ability to meet our expenses and to make future principal and interest payments in respect of our debt depends on, among other factors, our operating performance, competitive developments and financial market conditions, all of which are significantly affected by financial, business, economic and other factors. We are not able to control many of these factors. Given current industry and economic conditions, our cash flow may not be sufficient to allow us to pay principal and interest on our debt and meet our other obligations.

Risk Related to Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Industry

Our future success will depend significantly on the price of bitcoin, which is subject to risk and has historically been subject to wide swings and significant volatility.

Our operating results depend significantly on the price of bitcoin because it is the only cryptocurrency asset that we currently mine. Specifically, our revenues from our cryptocurrency datacenter operations are based principally on two factors: (1) our mining payouts from our third-party mining pools; and (2) the price of bitcoin. Accordingly, a decrease in the price of bitcoin will result in a decrease in our revenues. Moreover, the price of bitcoin has historically been subject to wide swings and significant volatility. This means that our operating results may be subject to significant volatility. Bitcoin prices have historically been volatile and impacted by a variety of factors, including market perception, the degree to which bitcoin is accepted as a means of payment, the volume of purchases and sales of bitcoin by market participants, real or perceived competition from alternative cryptocurrencies as well as other risks and uncertainties described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. For example, the price of bitcoin ranged from a low of approximately $30,000 to a high of approximately $68,000 during 2021, and has ranged from approximately $19,000 to approximately $48,000 year-to date as of June 30, 2022. Ongoing depressed cryptocurrency prices, including the recent decrease in the price of bitcoin, have resulted in, and could further result in, adverse effects on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects, which could significantly impact our ability to continue as a going concern or to pursue our strategy at all.

While some retail and commercial outlets accept bitcoin as a means of payment, consumers’ payment by bitcoin to such retail and commercial outlets remains limited. Conversely, a significant portion of bitcoin demand is generated by speculators and investors seeking to profit from the short- or long-term holding of bitcoin. Many industry commentators believe that bitcoin’s best use case is as a store of wealth, rather than as a currency for transactions, and that other cryptocurrencies having better scalability and faster settlement times will better serve as currency. This could limit bitcoin’s acceptance as transactional currency. A lack of expansion by bitcoin into retail and commercial markets, or a contraction of such use, may result in increased volatility or a further reduction in the price of bitcoin, either of which could adversely affect our results of operations.

As a result of the depressed price of bitcoin as compared to its historical high, the cryptocurrency industry has experienced increased credit pressures that could result in additional demands for credit support by third parties or decisions by banks, surety bond providers, investors or other companies to reduce or eliminate their exposure to bitcoin and the cryptocurrency industry as a whole, including our company. These credit pressures have had, and may continue to have, a material impact on our business, including, for example, banks, investors and other companies reducing or eliminating their exposure to the cryptocurrency industry, which could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to our Power Generation Operations

Obtaining and complying with required government permits and approvals may be time-consuming and costly.

We and our affiliates are required to obtain, and to comply with, numerous permits and licenses from federal, state and local governmental agencies. The process of obtaining and renewing necessary permits and licenses can be lengthy and complex, requiring up to months or years for approval depending on the nature of the permit or license and such process could be further complicated or extended in the event regulations change. In addition, obtaining such permit or license can sometimes result in the establishment of conditions that create a significant ongoing impact to the nature or costs of operations or even make the project or activity for which the permit or license was sought unprofitable or otherwise unattractive. In addition, such permits or licenses may be subject to denial, revocation or modification under various circumstances. Failure to obtain or comply with the conditions of permits or licenses, or failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, may result in the delay or temporary suspension of our operations and electricity sales or the curtailment of our delivery of electricity to our customers and may subject us to penalties and other sanctions. Although various regulators routinely renew existing permits and licenses, renewal of our existing permits or licenses could be denied or jeopardized by various factors, including failure to provide adequate financial assurance for closure, failure to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations or permit conditions, local community, political or other opposition and executive, legislative or regulatory action.

On June 30, 2022, the NYSDEC denied our Title V Air Permit renewal application. Our existing Title V Air Permit allows us to fire natural gas to produce electricity in accordance with the permit requirements, which remains valid and in effect until four months after

39


the final resolution of the appeal process. We intend to challenge NYSDEC’s decision, however, this challenge will cause us to incur additional costs and will result in the diversion of management attention, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our inability to procure and comply with the permits and licenses required for these operations, including the Title V Air Permit, or the cost to us of such procurement or compliance, could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, new environmental legislation or regulations, if enacted, or changed interpretations of existing laws, may cause activities at our facilities to need to be changed to avoid violating applicable laws and regulations or eliciting claims that historical activities at our facilities violated applicable laws and regulations. In addition to the possible imposition of fines in the case of any such violations, we may be required to undertake significant capital investments and obtain additional operating permits or licenses, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

Risks Related to the Ownership of Our Securities

Because there is a risk as to our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, an investment in our common stock is highly speculative. Holders of our common stock could suffer a total loss of their investment.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. We have experienced periods of losses and negative operating cash flows as a result of decreases in bitcoin prices and increases in natural gas prices, which are currently affecting, and have affected the performance of our business. Additional adverse developments affecting these industries could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Management has evaluated different options to improve our liquidity to fund our expenses and to support our debt servicing requirements. These options include, but are not limited to, selling or monetizing certain assets; issuances of equity, including but not limited to issuances under the Equity Purchase Agreement; migrating certain of our equipment to lower cost locations; and negotiating with lenders to modify the terms of certain of our existing financings. On August 10, 2022, B. Riley agreed to amend and restate the Promissory Note by extending the maturity to June 2023, reducing scheduled monthly amortization payments and reducing mandatory prepayments. Additionally, we sold certain of our mining equipment during the three months ended December 31, 2021.June 30, 2022.

While we believe we will be successful in our efforts to implement the options to improve liquidity, which will allow us to meet our financial commitments for at least the next twelve months, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.

The market price, trading volume and marketability of our class A common stock may be significantly affected by numerous factors beyond our control.

The market price and trading volume of our class A common stock may fluctuate and/or decline. Recently, the trading price of our class A common stock has declined significantly. When the price of bitcoin declines, our stock price has historically fallen as well. We may experience similar outcomes in the future if our stock price continues to track the price of bitcoin. Furthermore, if the market for bitcoin company stocks or the stock market in general experiences a loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, operating results or financial condition. The trading price of our class A common stock could be subject to arbitrary pricing factors that are not necessarily associated with traditional factors that influence stock prices or the value of non-cryptocurrency assets such as revenue, cash flows, profitability, growth prospects or business activity levels since the value and price, as determined by the investing public, may be influenced by future anticipated adoption or appreciation in value of cryptocurrencies or blockchains generally, factors over which we have little or no influence or control.

Additionally, there are many other factors that are beyond our control that may materially adversely affect the market price of our class A common stock, the marketability of our class A common stock and our ability to raise capital through equity financings. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

the underlying volatility in pricing of, and demand for, energy and/or bitcoin;
price and volume fluctuations in the stock markets generally which create highly variable and unpredictable pricing of equity securities;
actual or anticipated variations in our annual or quarterly results of operations, including our earnings estimates and whether we meet market expectations with regard to our earnings;
significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of companies in the sectors in which our business operates, which may not be related to the operating performance of these companies and which may not reflect the performance of our businesses;

40


loss of a major funding source;
operating performance of companies comparable to us;
changes in regulations or tax law, including those affecting the holding, transferring or mining of cryptocurrency;
share transactions by principal stockholders;
recruitment or departure of key personnel;
geopolitical factors, including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine;
general economic trends and other external factors including inflation and interest rates;
increased scrutiny by governmental authorities or individual actors or community groups regarding our business, our competitors or the industry in which we operate;
publication of research reports by analysts and others about us or the cryptocurrency mining industry, which may be unfavorable, inaccurate, inconsistent or not disseminated on a regular basis;
sentiment of retail investors about our class A common stock and business generally (including as may be expressed on financial trading and other social media sites and online forums);
speculation in the media or investment community about us or the cryptocurrency industry more broadly; and
the occurrence of any of the other risk factors included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On September 15, 2021, we entered into a purchase agreement (the “2021 Purchase Agreement”), with B. Riley Principal Capital, LLC (“BRPC”) pursuant to which we had the right to sell to BRPC up to $500 million in shares of class A common stock, subject to certain limitations and the satisfaction of specified conditions in the 2021 Purchase Agreement, from time to time over the 24-month period commencing on October 6, 2021. On April 6, 2022, we and BRPC mutually agreed to terminate the 2021 Purchase Agreement, effective immediately on such date. From January 1, 2022 to April 6, 2022, we issued 415,000 shares of our class A common stock to BRPC under the Purchase Agreement.
