Hyperscale Data (GPUS) revealed on Tuesday that it has finalized a Master Services Agreement with a California neocloud operator to provide AI colocation and comprehensive data center solutions at its Michigan location.
Shares of GPUS declined 10.59% during trading, closing at $0.2557, even with the significant contract announcement.
The partnership encompasses an initial 20-megawatt AI computing capacity rollout, projected to commence operations in the fourth quarter of 2026. The MSA includes a 10-year base term plus two additional five-year renewal periods.
Should the client utilize the complete 20-year duration, revenue from this arrangement is anticipated to surpass $1.2 billion.
Additionally, the agreement provides the client with expansion capabilities to reach 52 megawatts in total capacity. A supplementary 32-megawatt allocation is available through a distinct provision, which—if activated within the initial two-year window and maintained through both extension periods—would elevate total agreement revenue beyond $3.0 billion.
Alliance Cloud Services, functioning as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Hyperscale Data, is currently upgrading approximately 60,000 square feet at the Michigan campus to accommodate this client. Capital expenditure estimates for the initial 20-megawatt deployment range from $100 million to $120 million.
CEO William Horne stated the Michigan campus is “positioned to offer a top-tier AI compute environment,” noting that revenue generation from these services could commence “as soon as late September 2026.”
Transition From Cryptocurrency Mining
With AI infrastructure coming online, Hyperscale Data intends to systematically reallocate power resources at the Michigan campus currently dedicated to Bitcoin mining operations. The facility presently operates approximately 28 megawatts of Bitcoin mining infrastructure.
Bitcoin mining activities will persist at the company’s Montana location. Limited mining operations may remain at the Michigan site throughout the conversion period.
The organization currently maintains holdings of 726.9 bitcoin, with an estimated market value around $45.9 million. The company also maintains an active at-the-market equity offering program valued at $300 million through Spartan Capital Securities.
Financial Scale and Implications
The magnitude of this MSA is particularly noteworthy considering Hyperscale Data’s present financial position. The company maintains a market capitalization of merely $124 million and recorded $121 million in revenue during the trailing twelve months.
The firm also shoulders a debt burden of $113 million, and InvestingPro analysts have noted the company is consuming cash at a concerning rate—a consideration that may influence its capacity to fund the $100-120 million infrastructure development.
Executive Chairman Milton “Todd” Ault III characterized the agreement as “a significant milestone,” revealing plans to ultimately develop over 300 megawatts of total power capacity at the Michigan campus.
The company emphasized that any expansion beyond the initial deployment remains contingent and depends on securing regulatory clearances, obtaining financing, infrastructure readiness, and finalizing utility contracts.
In its most recent disclosure, Hyperscale Data reported acquiring 8 bitcoin through open market purchases during the week concluding June 21.
