Tendencies and Different Components Affecting Our Enterprise
Regulatory Surroundings

clients' companies are topic to intensive legal guidelines, guidelines, rules,
insurance policies and authorized and regulatory steering, together with these governing
securities, commodities, cryptoasset custody, alternate and switch, information
governance, information safety, cybersecurity and tax. Many of those authorized and
regulatory regimes had been adopted previous to the appearance of the Web, cell
applied sciences, cryptoassets and associated applied sciences. Because of this, they don't
ponder or handle distinctive points related to the crypto economic system, are
topic to important uncertainty, and fluctuate extensively throughout U.S. federal, state
and native and worldwide jurisdictions. These authorized and regulatory regimes,
together with the legal guidelines, guidelines and rules thereunder, evolve regularly and should
be modified, interpreted and utilized in an inconsistent method from one
jurisdiction to a different, and should battle with each other. Furthermore, the
complexity and evolving nature of our enterprise and the numerous uncertainty
surrounding the regulation of the crypto economic system requires us to train our
judgement as as to whether sure legal guidelines, guidelines and rules apply to us or our
clients, and it's attainable that governmental our bodies and regulators might
disagree with our or our clients' conclusions. To the extent we or our
clients haven't complied with such legal guidelines, guidelines and rules, we might be
topic to important fines and different regulatory penalties, which may

and sure U.S. businesses (e.g., the Commodity Futures Buying and selling Fee, the
SEC, the Monetary Crimes Enforcement Community and the Federal Bureau of
Investigation) have begun to look at the operations of cryptoasset networks,
cryptoasset customers and cryptoasset alternate markets. Different international locations across the
world are likewise reviewing and, in some circumstances, growing regulation of the
cryptoasset business. For example, on September 24, 2021, China imposed a ban
on all crypto transactions and mining.
Ongoing and future regulatory actions may successfully stop our clients'
mining operations and our ongoing or deliberate co-hosting operations, limiting or
stopping future income technology by us or rendering our operations and
crypto mining tools out of date. Such actions may severely affect our capacity
to proceed to function and our capacity to proceed as a going concern or to
pursue our technique in any respect, which might have a fabric hostile impact on our
enterprise, prospects or operations.

Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted Working Loss and Adjusted Internet Loss

excluding stock-based compensation and nonrecurring bills. We consider these
are helpful metrics as they supply extra info relating to components and
developments affecting our enterprise and supply perspective on outcomes absent one-time
or important non-cash objects. Nonetheless, Utilized Digital's presentation of those
measures shouldn't be construed as an inference that its future outcomes will probably be
unaffected by uncommon or non-recurring objects. Utilized Digital's computation of
Adjusted Working Loss and Adjusted Internet Loss might not be corresponding to different
equally titled measures computed by different firms, as a result of all firms might
not calculate Adjusted Working Loss and Adjusted Internet Loss in the identical trend.

Due to these limitations, Adjusted Working Loss and Adjusted Internet Loss shouldn't be thought-about in isolation or as an alternative choice to efficiency measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
