During the fourth-quarter earnings call, the company’s operating director and <a href="https://newslinker.co/category/finance/" data-wpel-link="exclude">finance</a> director Amrita Ahuja said:</p> 
<blockquote> 
 <p class="p1" style="text-align: justify">“The recovery in the third quarter was due to a number of factors, including the increase in Bitcoin gross profit from pricing changes implemented throughout the quarter.”</p>
