Revenues Increased 9.8% Year-Over-Year; Mined 27.9 Bitcoin in the Second Quarter of 2026
Subsequent to Quarter End, the Company Strengthened Its Balance Sheet by Refinancing $18 Million of Debt through New Debt Facility with Arch Lending, Significantly Lowering Interest Costs
TAMPA, Fla., August 14, 2026 -- PowerCompute, Inc. (NASDAQ: PWCM) (“PowerCompute” or the “Company”), a Bitcoin treasury and mining company expanding into high-performance computing (“HPC”) and artificial intelligence (“AI”) infrastructure, today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.
Q2’26 Financial Results
Total revenue for the quarter ending June 30, 2026 was $2.1 million, in line with Q1 2026 and up 9.8% year-over-year. The year-over-year increase reflects an increase in the number of miners actively mining and decreased difficulty rate offset in part by a decrease in Bitcoin price.
The Company mined 27.9 Bitcoin during the second quarter at an average Bitcoin value of approximately $72,000, compared to 26.1 Bitcoin in Q1 2026 at an average Bitcoin value of approximately $75,700 and 18.4 Bitcoin in Q2 2025 at an average Bitcoin value of approximately $98,000. The increase in Bitcoin mined was attributable to an increase in the number of miners actively mining.
Mining margin for the current quarter was 29.0% compared to a margin of 41.0% in Q2 2025. The Company generated approximately $145,000 in curtailment and energy sales for the 2026 second quarter as compared to $223,000 in Q2 2025. The decrease is primarily due to an approximately 27% decline in Bitcoin prices for Q2 2026 vs Q2 2025. Mining margin is calculated as digital mining revenues minus digital mining cost of revenues net of curtailment and energy sales.
The Company incurred a $1.3 million negative fair market value adjustment on mined digital assets due to Bitcoin price at approximately $58,400 on June 30, 2026, as compared to approximately $107,250 June 30, 2025. The Company also incurred a $1.7 million negative fair market value adjustment on Digital (Bitcoin) accounts receivable in Q2 2026.
As of August 9, 2026, the Company’s June 30, 2026 318.6 Bitcoin holdings (inclusive of Bitcoin held by Galaxy holdings) would be valued at approximately $20.7 million, based on a Bitcoin price of approximately $65,000 as of August 9, 2026.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2026 was approximately $4.6 million, and Core EBITDA loss was approximately $2.8 million, compared with Q2 2025 net income of $0.1 million and Core EBITDA income of $2.6 million with the change being driven primarily by the $3 million in losses associated with the decrease in Bitcoin price in Q2 2026 versus the $3.8 million gain in the prior year quarter.
As of June 30, 2026, cash was approximately $0.9 million, and Bitcoin holdings totaled 318.6 Bitcoin, which includes 174 Bitcoin held by Galaxy Digital as collateral in a Digital assets receivable account. The total of the holdings was valued at approximately $18.6 million, based on a Bitcoin price of approximately $58,400 as of June 30, 2026.
Q2’26 and Recent Operational Highlights
Announced strategic expansion into HPC and AI infrastructure, leveraging the Company’s 26 MW of wholly-owned power infrastructure.
Rebranded and renamed the Company to PowerCompute, Inc. (Nasdaq: PWCM). Effective on July 22, 2026, the Company began trading under the name and new ticker, to better align the Company identity with its expanded focus on delivering HPC and AI infrastructure alongside Bitcoin mining.
Entered into an agreement with Vast.ai (“Vast”) to utilize its graphics processing unit (“GPU”) compute marketplace to monetize and launch a proof-of-concept study for the Company’s professional-grade GPUs located at its Oklahoma facility.
Refinanced and consolidated the Company’s three existing $18 million debt facilities in the third quarter through a new debt facility with Arch Lending (the “Arch Facility”), that utilizes 307 Bitcoin (“BTC”) from the Company’s treasury as collateral. The new Bitcoin industry collateral loan with Arch utilizes a revolving 30-day term that carries an interest rate of approximately 2% APR, compared to 12% on the prior loans, substantially lowering the Company's cost of debt and strengthening its capital structure.
Management Commentary
"During the second quarter we made the decision to expand our strategic direction into HPC and AI infrastructure," said Bruce Rodgers, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of PowerCompute. "Our power-first approach remains our central advantage: we own 26 megawatts of energized, low-cost capacity today, and greenfield power takes years to replicate. Our work now is converting that advantage into contracted compute revenue.
"Our proof-of-concept deployment in Oklahoma is underway and has begun generating initial revenue from our engagements generated through Vast. The deployment is small and early, and we are treating it as a learning exercise rather than a milestone. The refinancing we completed after quarter-end lowered our borrowing cost materially, though the facility is short-dated and we remain focused on strengthening our liquidity position. We have real work ahead, and we intend to do it deliberately."
"Revenue was flat sequentially amid the continued soft Bitcoin price environment and grew 9.8% year-over-year on higher Bitcoin production," said Richard Russell, Chief Financial Officer of PowerCompute. "Core EBITDA loss narrowed to $2.8 million from $8.4 million in Q1 2026, largely because a smaller decline in Bitcoin price reduced the fair market value adjustment on mined Bitcoin by $2.5million and $1.5 million on the Loss on fair value of digital assets receivable. That improvement reflects Bitcoin price movement rather than a change in operating performance; mining margin was 29.0% for the quarter, down from 41.0% a year ago on lower Bitcoin prices. Following quarter-end we refinanced approximately $18 million of debt with Arch Lending at an interest rate of approximately 2% APR, compared with 12% on the prior financing package, materially reducing our interest expense. The Arch facility is a 30-day revolving facility secured by Bitcoin from our treasury, and its rate and availability are subject to renewal.”
