Total operating expenses for the year amounted to $1.23bn including an $11.3m benefit from Ripple.
Net loss in 2019 also widened to $60.3m from $24m a year ago.
The increase in losses was attributed to non-cash pension settlement charge associated with the divestment of pension liabilities. Debt extinguishment costs and a $30m merger termination payment received in 2018, also contributed to the increase in net loss.
