Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization | NOTE 1. ORGANIZATI ON Nature of operations Cipher Mining Inc. (“Cipher” or the “Company”) is an emerging technology company that develops and operates industrial scale bitcoin mining data centers. The Company operates or jointly operates four bitcoin mining data centers in Texas including one wholly-owned data center and three partially-owned data centers that were acquired through investments in joint ventures. Bitcoin mining is the Company’s principal revenue generating business activity. The Company began deployment of capacity in the first quarter of 2022, with mining operations beginning at the partially-owned Alborz facility in February 2022 (the “Alborz Facility”). In August 2022, installation of the last mining rigs delivered to the Alborz Facility was completed. In October 2022, installation at the partially-owned Bear facility (the “Bear Facility”) and the partially-owned Chief facility (the “Chief Facility”) was also completed. In November 2022, the Company began bitcoin mining operations at the wholly-owned Odessa facility (the “Odessa Facility”). In September 2023, the Company finalized the buildout of the operations at the Odessa Facility. Cipher Mining Technologies Inc. (“CMTI”) was established on January 7, 2021, in Delaware, by Bitfury Top HoldCo B.V. and its subsidiaries (“Bitfury Top HoldCo” and, with its subsidiaries, the “Bitfury Group”). Bitfury Top HoldCo (together with Bitfury Holding B.V., a subsidiary of Bitfury Top HoldCo, and referred to herein as “Bitfury Holding”) beneficially owned approximately 79.3 % of the Company’s common stock, $ 0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), as of September 30, 2023, with sole voting and sole dispositive power over those shares and, as a result, Bitfury Top HoldCo has control of the Company as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). The previously reported Lock-up Agreement, dated as of August 26, 2021, by and between Good Works Acquisition Corp. (“GWAC”) and Bitfury Top HoldCo , expired on August 27, 2023 . Out-of-period-adjustments Cost of revenue and power sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 included out-of-period adjustments of approximately $ 2.0 million and $ 1.6 million, respectively, that increased both cost of revenue and power sales on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 , and resulted in net increases to operating loss and loss before taxes of approximately $ 0.4 million during the same period. These out-of-period adjustments related to power costs and power sales for the year ended December 31, 2022 at the Company’s Odessa Facility, which are invoiced on a net basis by the Company’s power provider. Management evaluated the impact of this error on the Company’s previously issued audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, as well as on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, assessing the error both quantitatively and qualitatively, and concluded that the error was not material to the financial statements for either period. Risks and uncertainties Liquidity, capital resources and limited business history The Company has historically experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had approximate balances of cash and cash equivalents of $ 3.3 million, working capital of $ 15.5 million, total stockholders’ equity of $ 342.7 million and an accumulated deficit of $ 148.2 million. For fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company, in large part, relied on proceeds from the consummation of its business combination with GWAC to fund its operations; however, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company utilized proceeds from sales of bitcoin earned by or received from its bitcoin mining data centers to support its operating expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company sold 3,005 bitcoin for proceeds of approximately $ 78.7 million . Additionally, in January 2023, the Company was approached by a third party that offered to purchase coupons that the Company had received from Bitmain Technologies Limited (“Bitmain”) during fiscal year 2022. These transferable coupons provided the Company with potential discounts of approximately $ 10.9 million that could only be redeemed with the purchase of additional miners from Bitmain prior to the coupons’ April 2023 expiration date. As the Company did not intend to purchase additional Bitmain miners prior to the expiration date of the coupons, it sold the coupons to the interested third party for proceeds of approximately $ 2.3 million, which it recorded in other gains within costs and operating expenses (income) on its unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company monitors its balance sheet on an ongoing basis to determine the proper mix of bitcoin retention and bitcoin sales to support its cash requirements and ongoing operations. Bitcoin is classified as a current asset on the Company’s balance sheets due to its intent and ability to sell bitcoin to support operations when needed. Operating activities provided approximately $ 32.4 million of cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company paid approximately $ 4.5 million of deposits for mining equipment and reclassified approximately $ 74.2 million to property and equipment in connection with the receipt of miners and other equipment at the Odessa Facility. In September 2023, the Company finalized the buildout of the operations at the Odessa Facility. As of September 30, 2023 , the Company had 61,024 miners located at the Odessa Facility and had 12,953 , 3,254 and 3,254 contributed miners at its partially-owned Alborz Facility, Bear Facility and Chief Facility, respectively. On August 14, 2023, the Company, through CMTI, entered into a master loan agreement with Coinbase Credit, Inc., as lender, and Coinbase, Inc., as lending service provider, for a secured credit line up to $ 10.0 million (the “Credit Facility”). See Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies for additional information regarding the Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2023 , the Company has no t drawn upon the Credit Facility. Management believes that the Company’s existing financial resources, including access to the Credit Facility, combined with projected cash and bitcoin inflows from its data centers and its intent and ability to sell bitcoin received or earned, will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its operating and capital requirements for at least 12 months from the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. There is limited historical financial information about the Company upon which to base an evaluation of its performance. The business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in exploration and/or development, and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services. The Company’s management has no current intention of entering into a merger or acquisition within the next 12 months. The Company may require additional capital to pursue certain business opportunities or respond to technological advancements, competitive dynamics or technologies, challenges, acquisitions or unforeseen circumstances. Additionally, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs related to operating as a public company. Accordingly, the Company may engage in equity or debt financings or enter into credit facilities for the above-mentioned or other reasons; however, the Company may not be able to timely secure additional debt or equity financings on favorable terms, if at all. If the Company raises additional funds through equity financing, its existing stockholders could experience significant dilution. Furthermore, any debt financing obtained by the Company in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to the Company’s capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for the Company to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate financing on terms that are satisfactory to the Company, when the Company requires it, the Company’s ability to continue to grow or support the business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited, which may adversely affect the Company’s business plan. Macroeconomic conditions: COVID-19 and other economic, business and political conditions The Company’s results of operations could be adversely affected by general conditions in the global economy and in the global financial markets, including conditions that are outside of the Company’s control, such as any epidemics, pandemics or disease outbreaks or other public health conditions. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic (“COVID-19”) that was declared on March 11, 2020 caused significant economic dislocation in the United States (“U.S.”) and globally as governments across the world, including the U.S., introduced measures aimed at preventing the spread of COVID-19. While most policies and regulations implemented by governments in response to COVID-19 have been lifted, they have had a significant impact, both directly and indirectly, on global business and commerce. The Company may experience disruptions to its business operations resulting from supply interruptions, quarantines, self-isolations, or other movement and restrictions on the ability of its employees or its counterparties to perform their jobs. The Company may also experience delays in construction and obtaining necessary equipment in a timely fashion. If the Company is unable to effectively set up and service its miners, its ability to mine bitcoin will be adversely affected. There is no assurance that COVID-19 or any other pandemic, or other unfavorable global economic, business or political conditions, such as a rise in energy prices, a slowdown in the U.S. or international economy, high inflation rates or other factors, will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation The Company prepares its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) as determined by the FASB and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its controlled subsidiary, CMTI. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include, but are not limited to, those related to equity instruments issued in share-based compensation arrangements, valuations of its derivative asset and warrant liability under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, useful lives of property and equipment, the asset retirement obligation and the valuation allowance associated with the Company’s deferred tax assets, among others. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist of only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the balances and results for the periods presented. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any future period. A description of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K. You should read the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K. Except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K. Segment information Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is comprised of several members of its executive management team. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one segment. Income (loss) per share Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share adjusts net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share for the effect of all potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock. Potential common shares consist of the Company’s outstanding public and private placement warrants to purchase Common Stock, as well as unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the dilutive effect of RSUs was calculated using the treasury stock method. For warrants that are liability-classified, during periods when the impact is dilutive, the Company assumes share settlement of the instruments as of the beginning of the reporting period and adjusts the numerator to remove the change in fair value of the warrant liability and adjusts the denominator to include the dilutive shares calculated using the treasury stock method. The Company’s potential common shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per common share. The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the diluted net income (loss) per share computations for the periods indicated below: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Basic and diluted (loss) income per share: Net (loss) income $ ( 17,711 ) $ 59,292 $ ( 37,013 ) $ 12,574 Weighted average shares outstanding - basic 251,789,350 247,508,745 249,858,033 248,461,373 Add: RSUs - 833,455 - 321,292 Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted 251,789,350 248,342,200 249,858,033 248,782,665 Net (loss) income per share - basic $ ( 0.07 ) $ 0.24 $ ( 0.15 ) $ 0.05 Net (loss) income per share - diluted $ ( 0.07 ) $ 0.24 $ ( 0.15 ) $ 0.05 The following table presents the common shares that are excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per common share at September 30, 2023 and 2022, because including them would have been antidilutive. September 30, 2023 2022 Public warrants 8,499,980 8,499,980 Private placement warrants 114,000 114,000 Unvested RSUs 21,234,610 15,364,457 29,848,590 23,978,437 Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ASU No. 2016‑13 , Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which was codified with its subsequent amendments as ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”). ASC 326 seeks to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments, including trade receivables, and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The amendments require an entity to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in other GAAP with a methodology that reflects current expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2023 did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures. The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes to determine the consequences of the change to its financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s financial statements properly reflect the change. The Company reviewed all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. |

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded impairment charges on its bitcoin holdings of approximately $ 3.4 million and $ 8.1 million , respectively. Impairment charges were approximately $ 0.3 million and $ 0.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 , respectively. |

Derivative Asset | NOTE 4. DERIVATIVE ASSET Luminant Power Agreement On June 23, 2021 , the Company entered into a power purchase agreement with Luminant ET Services Company LLC (“Luminant”), which was subsequently amended and restated on July 9, 2021 , and further amended on February 28, 2022 , August 26, 2022 and August 23, 2023 (as amended, the “Luminant Power Agreement”), for the supply of a fixed amount of electric power to the Odessa Facility at a fixed price for a term of five years , subject to certain early termination exemptions. The Luminant Power Agreement provides for a subsequent automatic annual renewal unless either party provides written notice to the other party of its intent to terminate the agreement at least six months prior to the expiration of the then current term. Starting from July 1, 2022 , and prior to the receipt of interconnection approval from the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (“ERCOT”), under the take or pay framework of the Luminant Power Agreement and pursuant to the ramp-up schedule agreed to between Luminant and Cipher, Luminant began sales of the scheduled energy in the ERCOT market. Because ERCOT allows for net settlement, the Company’s management determined that, as of July 1, 2022, the Luminant Power Agreement met the definition of a derivative under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Because the Company has the ability to sell its electricity in the ERCOT market rather than take physical delivery, physical delivery is not probable through the entirety of the contract and therefore, the Company’s management does not believe the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception applies to the Luminant Power Agreement. Accordingly, the Luminant Power Agreement (the non-hedging derivative contract) is recorded at its estimated fair value each reporting period with the change in the fair value recorded in change in fair value of derivative asset in the consolidated statements of operations. See additional information regarding valuation of the Luminant Power Agreement derivative in Note 16. Fair Value Measurements . Depending on the spot market price of electricity, the Company may opportunistically sell electricity in the ERCOT market in exchange for cash payments, rather than utilizing the power to mine for bitcoin at the Odessa Facility during peak times in order to most efficiently manage the Company’s operating costs. The Company earned approximately $ 2.7 million and $ 8.5 million , respectively from power sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and recorded this amount in power sales within costs and operating expenses (income) on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations, with the corresponding cost of the power sold recorded in cost of revenue. See Note 1. Organization for information regarding the out-of-period adjustments recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 , which affected cost of power, power sales, net operating loss and net loss on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. |

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Investment in Equity Investees | NOTE 7. INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY INVESTEES The Company uses the equity method of accounting to account for its 49 % equity interest in its partially owned mining operations Alborz LLC, Bear LLC and Chief, LLC (the “Data Center LLCs”). The Company recognized a total of approximately $ 2.0 million and $ 4.2 million of net losses in equity in losses of equity investees within the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and $ 8.3 million and $ 20.6 million of net losses in equity in losses of equity investees during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. During fiscal year 2022, the Company contributed miners and mining equipment to the Alborz, Bear and Chief Facilities. The majority of these contributed miners had a fair value that was lower than the cost paid by the Company to obtain them, and the Company recognized losses at the time of the contributions, resulting in basis differences related to the Company’s investments in Alborz LLC, Bear LLC and Chief LLC, all of which recorded the contributions of equipment from the Company at the historical cost paid by the Company to obtain the equipment. As Alborz LLC, Bear LLC and Chief LLC depreciate the historical cost of these miners on their respective financial statements over the expected depreciation period of five years , the Company accretes these basis differences over the same period and records the accretion amount for each reporting period within equity in losses of equity investees on its statements of operations until these miners are fully depreciated and the corresponding basis differences are fully accreted. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had remaining basis differences totaling approximately $ 26.4 million that have not yet been accreted. Accretion recorded by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is shown in the table below and was recorded within equity in losses of equity investees on the statement of operations. Activity in the Company’s investments in equity investees during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 consisted of the following (in thousands): Balance as of January 1, 2023 $ 37,478 Cost of contributed mining equipment and other capital contributions 4,435 Accretion of basis differences related to miner contributions 5,012 Capital distributions ( 3,807 ) Bitcoin received from equity investees ( 317 ) Equity in net losses of equity investees ( 9,192 ) Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ 33,609 |

Related Party Transactions | NOTE 10. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Related party receivables Related party receivables were $ 1.1 million as of December 31, 2022, consisting of expenses paid on behalf of the Data Center LLCs. The Company recorded an additional $ 1.0 million of related party receivables during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, representing additional expenses paid on behalf of the Data Center LLCs, and subsequently reclassified the total outstanding balance of $ 2.1 million to investment in equity investees on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 . As a result of this reclassification, related party receivables were nil as of September 30, 2023. Purchase commitments, deposits on equipment and related party payables The Company entered into two agreements with Bitfury USA Inc. (“Bitfury USA”), made under, and as a part of, the Master Services and Supply Agreement to purchase BBACs. Additionally, Bitfury USA contracted with third-party vendors for the purchase of equipment and the receipt of services related to Cipher’s future mining operations. Pursuant to one of these arrangements between Bitfury USA and a third-party vendor, Paradigm Controls of Texas, LLC (“Paradigm”), the Company made payments directly to Paradigm in place of Bitfury USA, in respect of manufacturing services for BBACs, totaling approximately $ 5.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the Company’s obligations to Bitfury USA under the Master Services and Supply Agreement were reduced by the same amount. As of December 31, 2022 , in relation to the Company assisting WindHQ with the liquidation of some of WindHQ’s bitcoin holdings, the Company had approximately $ 1.2 million of bitcoin and approximately $ 0.3 million of proceeds received, but not yet transferred to WindHQ, respectively, recorded in accounts payable, related party on its consolidated balance sheet. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, all of the bitcoin held by the Company on behalf of WindHQ was liquidated and all proceeds received from the liquidation were forwarded to WindHQ, leaving no remaining amount payable to WindHQ in accounts payable, related party as of September 30, 2023 on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | NOTE 11. LEASES Combined Luminant Lease Agreement The Company entered into a series of agreements with affiliates of Luminant, including the Lease Agreement dated June 29, 2021 , with amendment and restatement on July 9, 2021 and August 23, 2023 (as amended and restated, the “Luminant Lease Agreement”). The Luminant Lease Agreement leases a plot of land to the Company for the data center, ancillary infrastructure and electrical system (the “Interconnection Electrical Facilities” or “substation”) of the Odessa Facility. The Company entered into the Luminant Lease Agreement and the Luminant Purchase and Sale Agreement to build the infrastructure necessary to support its Odessa Facility operations. The Company determined that the Luminant Lease Agreement and the Luminant Purchase and Sale Agreement should be combined for accounting purposes under ASC 842 (collectively, the “Combined Luminant Lease Agreement”) and that amounts exchanged under the combined contract should be allocated to the various components of the overall transaction based on relative fair values. The Company’s management determined that the Combined Luminant Lease Agreement contains two lease components; and the components should be accounted for together as a single lease component, because the effect of accounting for the land lease separately would be insignificant. The Combined Luminant Lease Agreement commenced on November 22, 2022 and has an initial term of five years , with renewal provisions that are aligned with the Luminant Power Agreement. Financing for use of the land and substation is provided by Luminant affiliates. Despite lease commencement in November 2022, the Company had not been required by Luminant to make any lease payments for the substation prior to July 2023, therefore the Company accrued amounts due under the Combined Luminant Lease Agreement in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. On July 11, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment of the payment schedule to the Luminant Purchase and Sale Agreement, reflecting monthly installments of principal and interest totaling $ 19.7 million on an undiscounted basis, due over the remaining four-year period starting in July 2023. On August 23, 2023, the Company entered into a second amendment of the Luminant Lease Agreement, the terms of which included confirming the initial term will end on July 31, 2027 . These amendments did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. At the end of the lease term for the Interconnection Electrical Facilities, the substation will be sold back to Luminant’s affiliate, Vistra Operations Company, LLC at a price to be determined based upon bids obtained in the secondary market. Canaan Agreement On May 4, 2023, the Company entered into the Canaan Agreement to purchase 11,000 new A1346 model miners, all of which were received during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and have been installed at the Odessa Facility. The Company was required to pay a total of approximately $ 4.1 million prior to delivery of the miners. The Company will also make six monthly installment payments of approximately $ 1.7 million each month, through November 2023, at which time the Company will obtain title to the miners. The Company determined that the Canaan Agreement contains embedded leases as defined in ASC 842, one for each batch of miners delivered. Based on the terms of the arrangement and intent of the parties, the Company has classified the leases of the Canaan miners as finance leases. Each lease commences upon delivery of the associated batch, as the delivery date represents the date upon which the Company obtains the right to use the assets for a period of time in exchange for consideration. As a result of all 11,000 miners being delivered to the Company in June 2023, the Company determined there will effectively be a single lease commencement date for all of the underlying right-of-use assets. The lease term for the Canaan miners will be six months, aligning with the final payment and title transfer date. Upon title transfer, the Company will continue depreciating the residual value of the miners over their remaining useful life. Office headquarters lease The Company entered into an operating lease for office space located in New York. The lease has an initial term of 64 months and commenced on February 1, 2022 . The lease does not provide the Company with renewal options. Additional lease information Components of the Company’s lease expenses are as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Finance leases: Amortization of ROU assets (1) $ 1,481 $ - $ 3,297 $ - Interest on lease liability 600 - 1,478 - Total finance lease expense 2,081 - 4,775 - Operating leases: Operating lease expense 470 391 1,391 1,009 Variable lease cost - - - - Total operating lease expense 470 391 1,391 1,009 Total lease expense $ 2,551 $ 391 $ 6,166 $ 1,009 __________ (1) Amortization of finance lease ROU assets is included within depreciation expense.

On August 14, 2023, the Company, through CMTI, entered into a master loan agreement with Coinbase Credit, Inc., as lender, and Coinbase, Inc., as lending service provider. Pursuant to the master loan agreement, the Company established a secured line of credit up to $ 10.0 million (the “Credit Facility”). The Company will not incur commitment fees for unused portions of the Credit Facility. The borrowing rate on amounts drawn against the Credit Facility is determined on the basis of the Federal Funds Target Rate - Upper Bound, plus 2.5 %, calculated daily based on a 365-day year and payable monthly for the duration of the loan. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are available on demand, open term, and collateralized by bitcoin transferred to the lending service provider’s platform. As of September 30, 2023 the Company has not drawn upon the Credit Facility. Contingencies The Company, and its subsidiaries, are subject at times to various claims, lawsuits and governmental proceedings relating to the Company’s business and transactions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company cannot predict the final outcome of such proceedings. Where appropriate, the Company vigorously defends such claims, lawsuits and proceedings. Some of these claims, lawsuits and proceedings seek damages, including consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, in amounts that could, if awarded, be significant. Certain of the claims, lawsuits and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business are covered by the Company’s insurance program. The Company maintains property and various types of liability insurance in an effort to protect the Company from such claims. In terms of any matters where there is no insurance coverage available to the Company, or where coverage is available and the Company maintains a retention or deductible associated with such insurance, the Company may establish an accrual for such loss, retention or deductible based on current available information. In accordance with accounting guidance, if it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred as of the date of the financial statements, and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable, then an accrual for the cost to resolve or settle these claims is recorded by the Company in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. If it is reasonably possible that an asset may be impaired as of the date of the financial statements, then the Company discloses the range of possible loss. Expenses related to the defense of such claims are recorded by the Company as incurred and included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Management, with the assistance of outside counsel, may from time to time adjust such accruals according to new developments in the matter, court rulings, or changes in the strategy affecting the Company’s defense of such matters. On the basis of current information, the Company does not believe there is a reasonable possibility that a material loss, if any, will result from any claims, lawsuits and proceedings to which the Company is subject to either individually, or in the aggregate. Luminant Power Agreement On November 18, 2022, Luminant filed suit against CMTI in the 95 th District Court of Dallas County, Texas, asserting Texas state law claims for declaratory judgment and “money had and received”, seeking recoupment and return of money previously paid by Luminant to CMTI in connection with Luminant’s (and its affiliates’) construction and energization of Cipher’s bitcoin mining data center in Odessa, Texas. These prior payments were (i) the sum of $ 5.1 million paid to CMTI in September 2022 pursuant to a contractual provision requiring such payment in the parties’ written and executed August 25, 2022 Third Amendment to the Luminant Power Agreement, and (ii) the sum of $ 1.7 million also paid to CMTI in September 2022, as agreed by the parties, for electrical power sold by Luminant for CMTI’s benefit into the open market prior to the final energization of the Odessa Facility. Luminant contended that such payments were mistaken because, although voluntarily made by Luminant, they were not actually due under the terms of the Luminant Power Agreement, as amended. The Company filed its answer on January 17, 2023, denying any liability to Luminant. Cipher has not received payment from Luminant for electricity sold in the ERCOT market in September 2022 and October 2022. The Company established a $ 2.0 million accrual for the cost of resolving the claims in the second quarter of 2023. On July 11, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment of the payment schedule to the Luminant Purchase and Sale Agreement, reflecting monthly installments of principal and interest totaling $ 19.7 million on an undiscounted basis, due over the remaining four-year period starting in July 2023. On August 23, 2023, the Company settled the dispute with Luminant (the “Luminant Settlement”). In connection with the Luminant Settlement, the Company, through CMTI, entered into (i) a Fourth Amendment to the Power Purchase Agreement (the “Amended PPA”) with Luminant, which amended the Luminant Power Agreement and (ii) a Second Amendment to the Lease Agreement (the "Amended Lease") with an affiliate of Luminant, which amended the Luminant Lease Agreement. The Amended PPA, among other items, reduces the notice requirements that CMTI must satisfy in connection with changes to its energy consumption at the Odessa Facility and the Amended Lease provides that the initial term of the agreement shall end on July 31, 2027. |

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued 4,457,708 shares of Common Stock to officers, employees and consultants in settlement of an equal number of fully vested RSUs awarded to these individuals, and 319,786 shares of Common Stock to directors, pursuant to grants made under the Cipher Mining Inc. 2021 Incentive Award Plan (the “Incentive Award Plan”). The Company immediately repurchased 1,581,217 of these shares of Common Stock from officers and employees, with a fair value of approximately $ 3.2 million , to cover taxes related to the settlement of vested RSUs, as permitted by the Incentive Award Plan. The Company placed the repurchased shares in treasury stock. At-the-Market Sales Agreement On September 21, 2022, the Company filed with the SEC a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective on October 6, 2022 (the “Registration Statement”). In connection with the filing of the Registration Statement, the Company also entered into an at the market offering agreement (the “Prior Sales Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Prior Agent”), under which the Company may, from time to time, sell shares of its Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 250.0 million in “at the market” offerings through the Prior Agent. Effective August 1, 2023, the Company terminated the Prior Sales Agreement. On August 3, 2023, the Company entered into a Controlled Equity Offering SM Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., Canaccord Genuity LLC, Needham & Company, LLC and Compass Point Research & Trading, LLC (each, an “Agent” and, together, the “Agents”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time through or to the Agents, shares of its Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $ 250.0 million (the “Shares”). The offering and sale of up to $ 250.0 million of the Shares has been registered under the Registrati on Statement, the base prospectus contained within the Registration Statement, and a prospectus supplement that was filed with the SEC on August 4, 2023 (the “Prospectus Supplement”). Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, the Agent selected by the Company (such Agent, the “Designated Agent”) may sell the Shares in sales deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act. The Company has no obligation to sell any of the Shares under the Sales Agreement and may at any time suspend or terminate the offering of the Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement upon notice and subject to other conditions. The Agents will act as sales agents and will use commercially reasonable efforts to sell on the Company’s behalf all of the Shares requested to be sold by it, on mutually agreed terms between the Agents and the Company. Under the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Company agreed to pay the Designated Agent a commission up to 3.0 % of th e aggregate gross proceeds from any Shares sold through such Designated Agent pursuant to the Sales Agreement. In addition, the Company agreed to reimburse certain expenses incurred by the Agents in connection with the Sales Agreement.

Warrants and Rights Note Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Warrants | NOTE 14. WARRANTS Upon consummation of the business combination, the Company assumed Common Stock warrants that were originally issued in GWAC’s initial public offering (the “Public Warrants”), as well as warrants that were issued in a private placement that closed concurrently with GWAC’s initial public offering (the “Private Placement Warrants”). The Public and Private Placement Warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. There were 8,499,980 Public Warrants and 114,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding as of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 . The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or the Company’s recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of Common Stock at a price below their respective exercise prices. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. |

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Share-based Compensation | NOTE 15. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION The Incentive Award Plan provides for the grant of stock options, including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, RSUs and other stock or cash-based awards to employees, consultants and directors. Upon vesting of an award, the Company may either issue new shares or reissue treasury shares. Initially, up to 19,869,312 shares of Common Stock were available for issuance under awards granted pursuant to the Incentive Award Plan. In addition, the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Incentive Equity Plan is increased on January 1 of each calendar year beginning in 2022 and ending in 2031 by an amount equal to the lesser of (a) three percent ( 3 %) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year and (b) such smaller number of shares determined by the Board. On January 1, 2023, this resulted in an increase of 7,426,559 shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Incentive Award Plan. As of September 30, 2023, 6,282,366 shares of Common Stock were available for issuance under the Incentive Award Plan. The Company recognized total share-based compensation expense in general and administrative expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the following categories of awards as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Service-based RSUs $ 7,038 $ 7,078 $ 17,865 $ 19,936 Performance-based RSUs 3,416 3,416 10,136 10,136 Common stock, fully-vested 245 - 686 - Total share-based compensation expense $ 10,699 $ 10,494 $ 28,687 $ 30,072 Service-based RSUs A summary of the Company’s unvested Service-based RSU activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is shown below: Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Unvested at January 1, 2023 14,441,044 $ 3.96 Granted 6,993,565 $ 2.27 Vested ( 4,457,709 ) $ 4.05 Unvested at September 30, 2023 16,976,900 $ 3.24 As of September 30, 2023, there was approximately $ 26.2 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested Service-based RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average vesting period of approximately 1.5 years. If not fully vested upon grant, Service-based RSUs awarded generally vest over a period ranging from two to four years in equal installments on the award’s anniversary of the vesting commencement date, which will generally coincide with the timing when the employee or consultant began to provide services to the Company, as determined by the Board, and which may precede the grant date. Vesting is subject to the award recipient’s continuous service on the applicable vesting date; provided, that if the award recipient’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause”, by award recipient for “good reason” (if applicable, as such term or similar term may be defined in any employment, consulting or similar service agreement between award recipient and the Company) or due to award recipient’s death or permanent disability, all unvested Service-based RSUs will vest in full. In addition, in the event of a change in control, any unvested Service-based RSUs will vest subject to the award recipient’s continuous service to the Company through such change in control. In addition, if the Company achieves a $ 10 billion market capitalization milestone (described further below) and the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) remains in continuous service through such achievement, any then-unvested Service-based RSUs awarded to the CEO will also vest. Performance-based RSUs There was no new activity for unvested Performance-based RSUs during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 There were 4,257,710 unvested Performance-based RSUs with a weighted average grant date fair value of $ 7.76 as of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, there was approximately $ 7.7 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested Performance-based RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average derived service period of approximately 0.7 years. One-third of the outstanding Performance-based RSUs will vest upon the Company achieving a market capitalization equal to or exceeding $ 5 billion, $ 7.5 billion and $ 10 billion, in each case over a 30-day lookback period and subject to the CEO’s continuous service through the end of the applicable 30-day period. In the event of a change in control and CEO’s continuous service through such change in control, the per share price (plus the per share value of any other consideration) received by the Company’s stockholders in such change in control will be used to determine whether any of the market capitalization milestones are achieved (without regard to the 30-day lookback period). Any Performance-based RSUs that do not vest prior to the CEO’s termination of service or, if earlier, in connection with a change in control will be forfeited for no consideration. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | NOTE 16. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The Company’s financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurement on a recurring basis and the level of inputs used for such measurements were as follows as of the dates indicated (in thousands): Fair Value Measured as of September 30, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets included in: Cash and cash equivalents Money market securities $ 3,208 $ - $ - $ 3,208 Accounts receivable 360 - - 360 Derivative asset - - 80,050 80,050 $ 3,568 $ - $ 80,050 $ 83,618 Liabilities included in: Warrant liability $ - $ - $ 56 $ 56 $ - $ - $ 56 $ 56 Fair Value Measured as of December 31, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets included in: Cash and cash equivalents Money market securities $ 10,943 $ - $ - $ 10,943 Accounts receivable 98 - - 98 Derivative asset - - 66,702 66,702 $ 11,041 $ - $ 66,702 $ 77,743 Liabilities included in: Warrant liability $ - $ - $ 7 $ 7 $ - $ - $ 7 $ 7 The carrying values reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for cash (excluding cash equivalents which are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis), accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values due to the short-term nature of these items. There were no transfers of financial instruments between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the periods presented. Level 3 asset The Company’s derivative asset, related to the Luminant Power Agreement, is divided between current and noncurrent assets, and was initially recorded on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets on the derivative asset’s effective date of July 1, 2022, with an offsetting amount recorded to change in fair value of derivative asset in costs and operating expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Subsequent changes in fair value are also recorded to change in fair value of derivative asset. The Luminant Power Agreement was not designated as a hedging instrument. The estimated fair value of the Company’s derivative asset was derived from Level 2 and Level 3 inputs (i.e., unobservable inputs) due to a lack of quoted prices for similar type assets and as such, is classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Specifically, the discounted cash flow estimation models contain quoted spot and forward prices for electricity, as well as estimated usage rates consistent with the terms of the Luminant Power Agreement, which has a remaining term of approximately 3.6 years . The valuations performed by the third-party valuation firm engaged by the Company utilized pre-tax discount rates of 7.55 % and 6.83 % as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and include observable market inputs, but also include unobservable inputs based on qualitative judgment related to company-specific risk factors. Unrealized gains associated with the derivative asset within the Level 3 category include changes in fair value that were attributable to changes to the quoted forward electricity rates, as well as unobservable inputs (e.g., changes in estimated usage rates and discount rate assumptions). The following table presents the changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative asset measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (in thousands): Balance as of January 1, 2023 $ 66,702 Change in fair value 13,348 Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ 80,050 Level 3 liability The Company’s Private Placement Warrants (as defined in Note 14. Warrants ) are its only liability classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the fair value is based on significant inputs that are unobservable in the market. The valuation of the Private Placement Warrants uses assumptions and estimates the Company believes would be made by a market participant in making the same valuation. The Company assesses these assumptions and estimates on an on-going basis as additional data impacting the assumptions and estimates are obtained. The Company engaged a valuation firm to determine the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the quoted price of its Common Stock. The following table presents significant assumptions utilized in the valuations of the Private Placement Warrants as of the dates indicated: September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Risk-free rate 4.71 % 4.06 % Dividend yield rate 0.00 % 0.00 % Volatility 85.0 % 90.0 % Contractual term (in years) 2.9 3.7 Exercise price $ 11.50 $ 11.50 The following table presents changes in the estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (in thousands): Balance as of January 1, 2023 $ 7 Change in fair value 49 Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ 56 |

Subsequent Events | NOTE 18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Miner Purchase On October 4, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with Bitmain Technologies Delaware Limited to purchase 1.2 EH/s worth of HASH Super Computing Servers (Antminer S21-200.0T model), for a total commitment of $ 24.0 million to be paid in cash and coupons, or $ 16.8 million in cash after applying coupons (the “Bitmain Agreement”). The Company expects the miners purchased under this agreement to be shipped in batches between January and June 2024. The Company expects to make periodic payments in accordance with the payment schedule under the Bitmain Agreement, with the final payment expected to occur one year after the delivery of the last batch of miners. Pursuant to the Bitmain Agreement, the Company is responsible for all logistics costs related to transportation, packaging for transportation and insurance related to the delivery of the miners. Black Pearl Purchase On November 6, 2023, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cipher Black Pearl LLC, entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “PSA”) with Trinity Mining Group, Inc. (“Trinity”) to purchase a data center lease (the “Lease”) related to certain tracts or parcels of land containing at least 50 acres of land located in Winkler County, Texas (the “Leased Property”) and certain other agreements (the “Assumed Agreements”) providing for the construction of a new data center the Company expects to build and call “Black Pearl” or the “Black Pearl Facility”. The Lease has an initial term of ten years , and the Company has four consecutive options to renew for periods of ten years each . In addition to the Lease and the Assumed Agreements, the purchased assets under the PSA include certain books, records, reports, studies and governmental approvals related to the Leased Property, and an approval from the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (“ERCOT”) conditionally approving up to 300 MW of energy consumption at the interconnection point of the Leased Property (the “Purchased Assets”). The consideration for the Purchased Assets will be $ 7.0 million (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price will be paid by delivery of a number of whole shares of the Company’s common stock. The amount of the Company’s stock to be delivered under the PSA will be calculated by dividing the Purchase Price by the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market for the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the signing of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, determined without regard to after-hours trading or any other trading outside of the regular trading session trading hours. The shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued to Trinity will be issued pursuant to the Registration Statement, including all information, documents and exhibits filed with or incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, providing for the offering, issuance and sale by the Company from time to time of up to $ 500.0 million in aggregate of the Company’s common stock, preferred stock, warrants and units. The Company’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by the PSA are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent. To the extent those conditions are satisfied, or waived by the Company, the Company expects the closing date to occur before the end of December 2023. If the closing date occurs before the end of December 2023, the Company expects to deliver to Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (“Oncor”) up to $ 6.3 million as collateral that Oncor will be obligated to return to the Company, provided that the Company energizes at least 135MW at the Black Pearl Facility by May 15, 2026. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation The Company prepares its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) as determined by the FASB and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its controlled subsidiary, CMTI. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. |
Use of Estimates | Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include, but are not limited to, those related to equity instruments issued in share-based compensation arrangements, valuations of its derivative asset and warrant liability under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, useful lives of property and equipment, the asset retirement obligation and the valuation allowance associated with the Company’s deferred tax assets, among others. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. |
Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist of only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the balances and results for the periods presented. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any future period. A description of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K. You should read the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K. Except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K. |
Segment Information | Segment information Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is comprised of several members of its executive management team. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one segment. |
Income (Loss) per Share | Income (loss) per share Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share adjusts net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share for the effect of all potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock. Potential common shares consist of the Company’s outstanding public and private placement warrants to purchase Common Stock, as well as unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the dilutive effect of RSUs was calculated using the treasury stock method. For warrants that are liability-classified, during periods when the impact is dilutive, the Company assumes share settlement of the instruments as of the beginning of the reporting period and adjusts the numerator to remove the change in fair value of the warrant liability and adjusts the denominator to include the dilutive shares calculated using the treasury stock method. The Company’s potential common shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per common share. The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the diluted net income (loss) per share computations for the periods indicated below: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Basic and diluted (loss) income per share: Net (loss) income $ ( 17,711 ) $ 59,292 $ ( 37,013 ) $ 12,574 Weighted average shares outstanding - basic 251,789,350 247,508,745 249,858,033 248,461,373 Add: RSUs - 833,455 - 321,292 Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted 251,789,350 248,342,200 249,858,033 248,782,665 Net (loss) income per share - basic $ ( 0.07 ) $ 0.24 $ ( 0.15 ) $ 0.05 Net (loss) income per share - diluted $ ( 0.07 ) $ 0.24 $ ( 0.15 ) $ 0.05 The following table presents the common shares that are excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per common share at September 30, 2023 and 2022, because including them would have been antidilutive. September 30, 2023 2022 Public warrants 8,499,980 8,499,980 Private placement warrants 114,000 114,000 Unvested RSUs 21,234,610 15,364,457 29,848,590 23,978,437 |
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ASU No. 2016‑13 , Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which was codified with its subsequent amendments as ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”). ASC 326 seeks to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments, including trade receivables, and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The amendments require an entity to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in other GAAP with a methodology that reflects current expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2023 did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures. The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes to determine the consequences of the change to its financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s financial statements properly reflect the change. The Company reviewed all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. |
