Stronghold Digital Mining, Inc.

Good afternoon and welcome to the Stronghold Digital Mining conference call for the third quarter ending September 30th, 2021. My name is Valerie and I'll be your operator this afternoon. Before this call, Stronghold issued its results for the third quarter 2021 in a press release, which is available in the investor section of the company's website at www.strongholdingmining.com. You can find the link to the investor section at the top of the homepage. Joining us on today's call are Stronghold's co-chairman and CEO, Greg Beard, CFO Ricardo Laraday, and Companies Outside Investor Relations Advisor Jeff Graham with Gateway Investment Relations. Following their remarks, we will open the call for questions. And now I'd like to turn the call over to Mr. Graham for some introductory comments.

Thank you.

Before management begins their formal remarks, our discussion may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about strongholds' beliefs, expectations, and future performance, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by use of the words such as anticipate, intend, believe, estimate, plan, seek, project, expect, may, will, would, could, or should, and the negative of these terms, or other comparable terminology. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements relating to our expectations regarding future growth, future revenue and earnings increases, EBITDA margins, cash flow projections and annual growth rates, our growth plans and opportunities, including our strategies for future acquisitions and power, potential minor targets, estimated returns on future acquisitions, and our assumptions underlying these expectations. Forward-looking statements in this discussion are not a guarantee of performance, and you should not place undue reliance on such statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our expectations and projections about future events. Forward-looking statements are subject to many uncertainties and other variable circumstances, including but not limited to risks and uncertainties identified under the caption Risk Factors in our S-1 and Strongholds Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. These factors could cause our actual results and experience to differ materially from any forward-looking statement. Given these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included in this presentation are made only as of the date hereof. We do not undertake and specifically disclaim any obligation to update any such statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of these statements to reflect future updates or developments, except as specifically stated or to the extent required by law.
