LAS VEGAS, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), an artificial intelligence ("AI") data center company anchored by Bitcoin ("Hyperscale Data" or the "Company"), today announced that, as of September 3, 2026, it held approximately $36 million in cash and restricted cash and approximately 215 Bitcoin.
As of September 3, 2026, the Company's combined cash, restricted cash and Bitcoin holdings totaled approximately $53 million, based on a Bitcoin price of approximately $81,500, representing nearly 200% of the Company's equity market capitalization as of that date.
Milton "Todd" Ault III, Executive Chairman of Hyperscale Data, stated, "Hyperscale Data currently holds approximately $36 million in cash and restricted cash and approximately 215 Bitcoin, with an estimated market value of approximately $18 million. Together, these assets total approximately $53 million, equal to nearly twice the Company's recent equity market capitalization.
"We sold a portion of our Bitcoin and deployed the proceeds to support the continued buildout of our Michigan AI data center as we prepare to perform under our master services agreement (the 'MSA') with a California-based neocloud provider. The MSA provides for the deployment of 20 megawatts, has an initial term of 10 years and includes two five-year extension options that may be exercised by the customer. If the customer exercises both extension options, the MSA is expected to generate in excess of $1.2 billion in revenue over the maximum 20-year term.
"This was a deliberate capital-allocation decision. We believe investing in the infrastructure necessary to perform under the MSA has the potential to create substantially greater long-term value for the Company and our stockholders. Even after deploying capital toward the Michigan facility, the value of our cash, restricted cash and remaining Bitcoin substantially exceeds our recent equity market capitalization. Although this comparison does not reflect our liabilities or the restrictions applicable to certain cash balances, we believe it provides meaningful context regarding the Company's current market valuation and underlying assets. In my view, the market is not presently reflecting the underlying value of the Company."
The Company notes that the market value of Bitcoin and the market capitalization of Hyperscale Data fluctuate continuously. Restricted cash is subject to applicable restrictions on its use. The comparison in this release is intended to highlight the relationship between these specific assets and the Company's recent equity market capitalization and should not be interpreted as a calculation of net cash, enterprise value, liquidation value or amounts available for distribution to stockholders.

About Hyperscale Data, Inc.
Through its wholly owned subsidiary Sentinum, Inc., Hyperscale Data owns and operates a data center that offers colocation and hosting services for the emerging AI ecosystems and other industries. Hyperscale Data's other wholly owned subsidiary, Ault Capital Group, Inc. ("ACG"), is a hybrid private equity firm and operating company that acquires, finances, builds and actively manages businesses across financial services, digital assets, industrial services, hospitality, defense technologies and other sectors.
Hyperscale Data currently expects the divestiture of ACG (the "Divestiture") to occur in 2027. Upon the occurrence of the Divestiture, the Company would be an owner and operator of data centers to support high-performance computing services, as well as a holder of the digital assets. Until the Divestiture occurs, the Company will continue to provide, through ACG and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and strategic investments, mission-critical products that support a diverse range of industries, including an AI software platform, equipment rental services, defense/aerospace, industrial, automotive and hotel operations. In addition, ACG is actively engaged in private credit and structured finance through Ault Lending, LLC, a licensed lending subsidiary. Hyperscale Data's headquarters are located at 11411 Southern Highlands Parkway, Suite 190, Las Vegas, NV 89141.
On December 23, 2024, the Company issued one million (1,000,000) shares of a newly designated Series F Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the "Series F Preferred Stock") to all common stockholders and holders of the Series C Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis. The Divestiture will occur through the voluntary exchange of the Series F Preferred Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of ACG (collectively, the "ACG Shares"). The Company reminds its stockholders that only those holders of the Series F Preferred Stock who agree to surrender such shares, and do not properly withdraw such surrender, in the exchange offer through which the Divestiture will occur, will be entitled to receive the ACG Shares and consequently be shareholders of ACG upon the occurrence of the Divestiture.
