ORGANIZATION	NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION Organization On December 13, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), TeraWulf Inc. (formerly known as Telluride Holdco, Inc.), a Delaware corporation, completed the previously announced strategic business combination pursuant to the agreement and plan of merger, dated as of June 24, 2021 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the Closing Date, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among TeraWulf Inc., IKONICS Corporation, a Minnesota corporation (“IKONICS”), TeraCub Inc. (formerly known as TeraWulf Inc.), a Delaware corporation that was formed on February 8, 2021 (“TeraCub”) and certain holding companies and subsidiaries created to effect the merger. In connection with the consummation of the Mergers, Telluride Holdco, Inc. was renamed TeraWulf Inc., and TeraWulf Inc. was renamed TeraCub Inc. TeraWulf Inc. and its subsidiaries are referred to in these consolidated financial statements as “TeraWulf” or the “Company.” TeraWulf’s planned principal operations consist of developing, constructing and operating bitcoin mining facilities in the United States that are fueled by clean, low cost and reliable power sources. TeraWulf has commenced mining at one bitcoin mining facility and expects to operate a portfolio of bitcoin mining facilities, either wholly-owned or through joint ventures, that each deploy a series of powerful computers that solve complex cryptographic algorithms to mine bitcoin and validate transactions on the bitcoin network. Substantially all of TeraWulf’s revenue will be derived from two primary sources: earning bitcoin rewards and transaction fees for validating transactions. The Company will also leverage its available digital infrastructure to provide miner hosting services to third parties whereby the Company holds an option to purchase the hosted miners in the future at a discounted purchase price. The hosting agreements, including existing executed agreements, may include Company options to purchase the hosted mining equipment. While the Company may choose to mine other cryptocurrencies in the future, it has no plans to do so currently. TeraWulf’s two bitcoin mining facilities are in New York and Pennsylvania and remain under construction as of March 31, 2022. Mining operations commenced at the New York facility during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The Pennsylvania bitcoin mining facility is being developed and constructed through a joint venture (see Note 10). The Company’s New York bitcoin mining facility is wholly-owned. In May 2021, TeraWulf created three wholly-owned subsidiaries to facilitate ownership of bitcoin mining facilities or joint venture interests related thereto. Lake Mariner Data LLC and Kyalami Data LLC are subsidiaries involved in developing wholly-owned bitcoin mining facilities in New York. As of the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued, Kayalami Data LLC was inactive. TeraWulf (Thales) LLC (“Thales”) is a subsidiary holding interests in a joint venture involved in developing bitcoin mining facilities in Pennsylvania (see Note 10). IKONICS’ traditional business has been the development and manufacturing of high-quality photochemical imaging systems for sale primarily to a wide range of printers and decorators of surfaces. Customers’ applications are primarily screen printing and abrasive etching. More recently, IKONICS has augmented its customer offerings with inkjet receptive films, ancillary chemicals and related equipment to provide a full line of products and services to its customers. TeraWulf has classified the IKONICS business as held for sale and discontinued operations in these consolidated financial statements (see Note 4). Risks and Uncertainties Liquidity and Financial Condition The Company incurred a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $18.2 million, including a net impairment charge (net of a contingent consideration remeasurement gain) of $2.5 million included in loss from discontinued operations, net of tax related to the acquired IKONICS business (see Notes 3 and 4), and negative cash flows from operations of $21.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had balances of cash and cash equivalents of $3.6 million, a working capital deficiency of $27.0 million, total stockholders’ equity of $121.0 million and an accumulated deficit of $113.9 million. The Company has commenced mining activities, however not yet to scale, and therefore has not generated material revenues from its mining business. The Company has relied on proceeds from its issuances of debt and equity to fund its principal operations. In accordance with development of its bitcoin mining facilities, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company invested approximately $21.5 million for purchases and deposits on plant and equipment, including deposits on miners under miner purchase agreements for which the Company has significant future obligations as detailed in Note 11. Also, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company invested $19.1 million, net in its joint venture and has commitments under its joint venture agreement as detailed in Note 10. The Company will need additional capital in order to meet these obligations in accordance with the existing contractual terms and to fund the planned development of its bitcoin mining facilities. Until TeraWulf is able to generate positive cash flows from operations, TeraWulf expects to fund its business operations and infrastructure buildout through the issuance of debt or equity securities or through the provision miner hosting services. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement for sale of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $200.0 million (the “ATM Offering”). The issuance of Common Stock under this agreement will be made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration statement No. 333-262226). During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company issued Common Stock, including under the ATM Offering, for net proceeds of $6.8 million and preferred stock for net proceeds of $9.3 million. See Note 13. Subsequent to March 31, 2022, the Company issued Common Stock, including under the ATM Offering, for gross proceeds of $27.1 million. See Note 16. There can be no assurance that the ATM Offering will provide sufficient capital or that any other financing will be successfully consummated on acceptable terms and volume, if at all, which may impact the timing or scale of TeraWulf’s planned development. In the event TeraWulf is unable to raise additional capital, TeraWulf may seek alternative arrangements or potential partnerships in order to fund its planned development. In the opinion of management, while it expects to be successful in its fundraising efforts, these factors, which include elements of capital acquisition outside the control of the Company, raise substantial doubt about TeraWulf’s ability to continue as a going concern through at least the next twelve months. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from TeraWulf’s possible inability to continue as a going concern. COVID-19 The Company’s results of operations could be adversely affected by general conditions in the economy and in the global financial markets, including conditions that are outside of the Company’s control, such as the outbreak and global spread of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”). The COVID-19 pandemic that was declared on March 11, 2020 has caused significant economic dislocation in the United States and globally as governments across the world, including the United States, introduced measures aimed at preventing the spread of COVID-19. The spread of COVID-19 and the imposition of related public health measures have resulted in, and are expected to continue to result in, increased volatility and uncertainty in the cryptocurrency space. Any severe or prolonged economic downturn, as result of the COVID-19 pandemic or otherwise, could result in a variety of risks to the business and management cannot anticipate all the ways in which the current economic climate and financial market conditions could adversely impact its business. The Company may experience disruptions to its business operations resulting from supply interruptions (including miner delivery interruptions), quarantines, self-isolations, or other movement and restrictions on the ability of its employees or its counterparties to perform their jobs and provide services. 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. The future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is still highly uncertain and there is no assurance that the COVID-19 pandemic or any other pandemic, or other unfavorable global economic, business or political conditions, will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results.
