Hyperscale Data Executive Chairman Issues Letter to Stockholders
Hyperscale Data’s chairman outlines large AI data center contract potential, 2027 financial guidance and the planned 2027 divestiture of Ault Capital Group.
Rhea-AI Summary
Hyperscale Data (GPUS) released a letter from Executive Chairman Milton "Todd" Ault III asserting the company is dramatically undervalued and highlighting key contracts, segment performance and planned corporate actions.
The company operates an AI data center in Michigan under a master services agreement with a California-based neocloud provider for 20 MW over an initial 10-year term, with two five-year extension options. If held for the full maximum term, this contract is expected to generate more than $1.2 billion in revenue. The customer also holds a right to an additional 32 MW, which, if exercised within the first two years and maintained through the extensions, would bring total expected contract revenue to over $3.0 billion.
For the first six months of 2026, the defense segment generated about $23.8 million of revenue, lending and trading via Ault Lending about $9.2 million, crane rental and industrial services about $22.1 million, and hotel and real estate operations about $9.7 million.
The company has issued preliminary 2027 guidance of $300–$350 million in consolidated revenue and $60–$80 million in adjusted EBITDA. Ault, who beneficially owns a majority of the company on an as-converted basis, states that he intends to buy GPUS shares in the open market when legally permitted. Hyperscale Data also reiterates that it currently expects to divest Ault Capital Group (ACG) in 2027 via exchange of Series F Exchangeable Preferred Stock into ACG Class A and Class B common shares.

News Explained
No separation is completed: ACG shares would be available only to Series F holders who surrender into the planned 2027 exchange.
Hyperscale Data issued a stockholder letter that keeps the ACG divestiture in the planned
The proposed structure is a voluntary exchange of Series F Preferred Stock for ACG Class A and Class B common shares, so receiving an ownership stake in ACG depends on participating in the exchange rather than simply holding the Company's common stock.
The letter describes Executive Chairman Milton Ault's open-market purchases as intended and subject to legal and company restrictions; context records show Ault purchased
The material milestone is the future exchange offer: its completion would determine which Series F holders receive ACG shares and become ACG shareholders.

AI-generated analysis. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.
Dear Stockholders:
I want to be very clear: I believe Hyperscale Data is dramatically undervalued, and I do not believe the current market capitalization comes close to recognizing the value of the businesses, assets and opportunities that exist inside this Company.
I believe stockholders need to re-examine Hyperscale Data and look at what we own and operate.
This is not simply an AI data center company.
Yes, we have the Michigan AI data center (the "Facility"), and an executed master services agreement (the "MSA") with a
That opportunity alone is substantial.
But what I believe the market is missing is that the Facility is only one part of Hyperscale Data.
Hyperscale Data, through Ault Capital Group, Inc. ("ACG") and its subsidiaries, also has a crane rental and industrial services business, hotel and real estate operations, defense businesses, a financial services platform, private credit and structured finance operations through Ault Lending, LLC ("Ault Lending"), digital assets and additional operating businesses and investments.
The current valuation does not adequately reflect the value of those businesses.
Look at the numbers.
Our defense segment generated approximately
Our lending and trading activities, through Ault Lending, generated approximately
Our crane rental and industrial services business generated approximately
These are real businesses. They have real assets. They generate real revenue. And in my opinion, the market is giving Hyperscale Data nowhere near appropriate credit for them.
The Company has publicly provided preliminary guidance for 2027 of
Despite this, the public-market valuation today bears little relationship to the potential earnings power and underlying assets of this enterprise. Accordingly, I believe that stockholders should seriously re-examine Hyperscale Data; the disconnect is simply extraordinary.
I understand that markets determine prices. I also understand that management ultimately has to execute. We will be judged on that execution.
But at today's valuation, I believe the market has fundamentally misunderstood what Hyperscale Data owns, what it is building and what this enterprise has the potential to become.
My response is not merely to talk about it.
Subject to applicable securities laws, Company trading policies, blackout periods and other legal restrictions, I intend to purchase shares in the open market when I am legally permitted to do so.
I am the Executive Chairman. Directly and through my affiliated entities, on an as-converted basis, I beneficially own a majority of the Company. I know these businesses. I know the assets. I know what our management teams are working to accomplish.
I believe Hyperscale Data is worth significantly more than the value the market is ascribing to it today.
Stockholders do not have to agree with me.
But I strongly encourage them to look again at the facts, look at the SEC filings, look at the businesses we own, look at the MSA and look at our publicly announced 2027 financial guidance.
I have done that analysis for myself and that is why I am buying.
Sincerely,
Milton "Todd" Ault III

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, 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.
