Insights

LMFA reported lower Bitcoin production, strategic equipment sales, and expansion plans while their BTC holdings exceed their market capitalization.

LM Funding's April operational update reveals several notable trends in their Bitcoin mining operations. The company mined 6.6 BTC in April, down from 8.7 BTC in March, primarily due to temporary disruptions from relocating 800 machines to their Oklahoma facility. More significantly, they sold 18 BTC during April, continuing a selling trend after disposing of 14.2 BTC in March.

The company's hashrate remained stable at 0.56 EH/s for energized machines, representing no growth from previous months despite industry-wide mining difficulty increases. This static capacity suggests the company is likely losing relative mining power compared to the expanding global hashrate.

What's particularly noteworthy is that LMFA holds 148.7 BTC valued at approximately $14.1 million ($2.75 per share), which significantly exceeds their $1.49 share price as of April 30. This valuation gap (84% premium of BTC holdings over share price) indicates the market may be applying a substantial discount to their Bitcoin mining operations.

The strategic pivot toward vertical integration appears to be bearing fruit, with $120,000 in power sales from their Oklahoma facility helping to offset mining costs. Their planned 2 MW expansion using immersion cooling technology represents a smart adaptation to current market conditions, potentially enabling better efficiency and equipment longevity.

The decision to sell recently acquired S21+ miners from Bitmain to recover investment capital demonstrates prudent capital allocation, especially given current mining economics. This move, combined with their facility expansion scheduled for Q3 completion, indicates management is optimizing for long-term operational efficiency rather than pursuing aggressive short-term growth.

"Transitioning to a vertically integrated model has proved valuable to our bottom line," said Bruce Rodgers, Chairman and CEO of LM Funding. "In April, we mined 6.6 Bitcoin due to curtailments and disruptions at our hosting site as we began relocating 800 machines to our wholly owned Oklahoma facility. Our Oklahoma site enabled us to generate approximately $120,000 in power sales during the month 鈥� an offset to our mining costs that improved our margins and overall efficiency. We also made several strategic decisions, including ordering two 1 MW immersion containers to start our 2 MW expansion at our Oklahoma site. After careful diligence, we believe immersion offers faster deployment timelines, better margins, and improved equipment longevity."

Richard Russell, CFO of LM Funding added, "In parallel with our Oklahoma expansion, we made the decision to sell our recently acquired S21+ miners from Bitmain. This transaction is expected to recover our investment and preserve capital for higher-return opportunities. Regarding our 2 MW expansion, we anticipate completing construction and energization by the end of the third quarter, subject to international shipping timelines. We believe these strategic moves will strengthen our operational foundation, protect capital, and position us for long-term success in an evolving market landscape."

The Company estimates that the value of its 148.7 Bitcoin holdings on April 30, 2025, was approximately $14.1 million or $2.75¹ per share, based on a Bitcoin price of approximately $94,900 as of April 30, 2025, compared to a stock share price of $1.49 as of April 30, 2025.
