Reporting a 141% year-on-year increase in net profit, reaching USD 56.1 million, up from USD 23.2 million in Q2 2023, the growth has been largely fuelled by strategic investments in digital assets.

  • The quarter-over-quarter growth in total assets stands at 4.6%.

  • Overall revenue reached $51 million experiencing a 35% year-over-year decline in Q2, 2024, reflecting short term global macro challenges around bitcoin halving.
  • The earnings per share for Q2 2024 amounted to $0.009.

Phoenix Group's total asset increase demonstrates the company's strong financial position and effective asset management strategies. Moreover the publicly listed company’s quarter-over-quarter growth in total assets highlighted consistent upward momentum.

The year-on-year net profit showcases the company's ability to generate substantial returns even amidst challenging market conditions. As a key driver of this growth, the self-mining business generated $28.5 million in Q2 2024, marking a 32% increase from USD 21.6 million in Q1 2024.

Overall reported revenue reached $51 million representing a 35% year-on-year decline and reflects wider drivers such as the bitcoin halving event which had a major impact on global markets. Despite this, Phoenix Group's strategic focus on self-mining and digital asset investments ensured a positive overall performance. The self-mining sector achieved a 32% quarter-on-quarter and a 295% year-on-year increase, bolstered by the operationalization of new sites in the US and Oman. 

Phoenix Group's hosting revenue saw a 10% quarter-over-quarter decline as customers opted to shut down machines due to unfavourable mining economics and rising electricity costs. However, the company's overall financial health remains strong, with total assets experiencing substantial growth. The earnings per share for Q2 2024 amounted to $0.009, underscoring the company's profitability and shareholder value.
