The company said, "The Company continues to expect revenue for fiscal year 2026 to be in the range of $180 million to $200 million, reflecting continued execution across its AI infrastructure platform, digital asset operations and diversified operating businesses. Since issuing its original 2026 outlook, Hyperscale Data has continued to execute on several significant strategic initiatives, including the recently announced master services agreement, which has an initial term of 10 years with two five-year extension options that may be exercised by the customer and initially contemplates approximately 20 megawatts of critical AI compute capacity. If exercised for the Maximum Term, the MSA is expected to generate in excess of $1.2 billion in revenue. The MSA also provides the customer with a right to an additional 32 MW of critical AI compute capacity which, if exercised within the first two years of the initial term and continues through the two five-year extension options, would be expected to result in total contract revenue in excess of $3.0 billion. While the Company is not providing 2027 revenue guidance at this time, management believes the MSA, together with additional commercial opportunities currently under negotiation, has the potential to meaningfully expand future revenue and cash flow as projects are implemented and become operational. Management anticipates providing longer-term financial outlook as additional commercial agreements are executed and implementation schedules become more clearly defined."

Hyperscale Data announced the establishment of a Michigan AI development reserve account, a dedicated capital reserve account targeting approximately $120M to support the continued development of the company's Michigan AI data center campus. The company anticipates that the principal source of the proceeds to be deposited into the Michigan Reserve Account will be generated by its ATM offering.
