SQR Squire Mining Ltd

Squire Mining Ltd. (CSE:SQR | FWB:9SQ | OTCQB:SQRMF) (“Squire”) announces its financial results for the first month of cloud computing operations for the month ended May 31, 2019. As previously announced, on May 1, 2019 Squire acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Freschette Limited (“Freschette”), which operates a cloud computing fleet of 20,500 units, representing 276 petahash/second (PH/s) of computing power operating in Kazakhstan. On the same date Taal Technologies SEZC (“Taal Tech”), a wholly owned Cayman Islands based subsidiary of Squire, entered into a cloud computing agreement with Freschette pursuant to which Taal Tech has exclusively engaged Freschette’s computing power in connection with its blockchain infrastructure support and cryptographic transaction verification activities.

Over the period from May 1, 2019 to May 31, 2019, Taal Tech realized a total of 306.76 Bitcoins (“BTC”) or estimated gross revenue of US$2.24 million for its first month of operations. Site operating costs in connection with operations for the period were US$1.23 million, resulting in cloud computing operating profit of US$1.01 million or cloud computing operating profit margin of 45%. Estimated gross revenue is measured based on the fair value of the BTC received at the time it is received. The fair value is determined using the estimated closing BTC index (BTC/USD) price each day per a third party quotation provider.  To determine estimated gross revenue, the Company is relying on data available from a third party quotation provider to be an accurate representation of the closing price for the digital assets.

These numbers as reported are not audited. Financial results of Squire for the three months and six months ended June 31, 2019 will be available on Squire’s SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com in due course. The results presented in this report are not indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period.

FINANCIAL MEASURES: There are measures included in this release that do not have a standardized meaning under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and therefore may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures and metrics presented by other issuers and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Squire includes these measures because it believes certain investors use these measures and metrics as a means of assessing financial performance. In this release, certain terms are used, which are not found in the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada Handbook and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. In particular, cloud computing operating profit is a non-GAAP measure.
