Key Terms

4 terms

pipe transaction financial

"The PIPE Transaction remains subject to closing conditions"

A PIPE transaction is when a publicly traded company sells new shares or convertible securities directly to a select group of private investors, rather than through a public offering. It’s essentially a quick way for a company to raise cash, but it can dilute existing shareholders and often involves a price discount, so investors watch PIPEs for their potential impact on share value and ownership stakes—like a private top-up that changes the size of everyone’s slice of the pie.

ebitda financial

"EBITDA loss of $8.5 million"

EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.

View in glossary

adjusted free cash flow financial

"Adjusted Free Cash Flow loss of $2.7 million"

Adjusted free cash flow is the amount of money a company generates from its operations after accounting for essential expenses and investments, like maintaining or upgrading equipment. It shows how much cash is truly available to grow the business, pay debts, or return to shareholders, helping investors see the company's financial health more clearly.

convertible note financial

"The MIG Convertible Note will accrue interest"

A convertible note is a type of loan that a company gets from investors, which can later be turned into company shares instead of being paid back in cash. It matters because it helps startups raise money quickly without setting a fixed value for the company right away, making it easier to grow and attract investors.

Recently Announced $39.4 Million Strategic Investment Positions Vulcan to Accelerate Development of its Power and Digital Infrastructure Platform

PITTSFORD, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2026 / Vulcan Infrastructure and Power Inc. (Nasdaq:VIP) ("Vulcan" or the "Company"), a power and infrastructure platform focused on acquiring, developing and operating energized sites supporting artificial intelligence and high-performance computing data centers, announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026 and provided an update on its strategic transition into a power and digital infrastructure platform and related development initiatives.

Vulcan CEO Jordan Kovler commented, "The strategic investment and transformation we announced in July represents an important step in our evolution. Upon closing, we expect the $39.4 million investment by Atlas Holdings,^[1] Machine Investment Group, Conversant Capital and other investors to significantly strengthen our balance sheet, address our near-term debt maturities and provide additional capital to accelerate the development of our power and digital infrastructure platform. We simultaneously completed upgrades and repairs to our New York power plant to ensure we maintain our historically high uptime providing needed power to the grid, advanced pre-development work on our sites and made progress in evaluating potential beneficial use for our legacy fly ash."

Kovler continued, "We control 104 MW of existing energized capacity and have a 654 MW development pipeline across owned sites, including more than 100 MW of near-term AI/HPC opportunities that we are actively working to commercialize. Our focus is on converting the value embedded in these power assets into higher-value infrastructure opportunities, while continuing to identify additional sites to expand our platform over time."

Kovler concluded, "Upon closing, we are excited to have three strategic investors with significant experience across power, infrastructure, real estate and large-scale data center development, which we believe will be valuable as we execute our strategy. Our immediate priorities are clear: close the financing transaction, advance the opportunities at Dresden and Mississippi, and continue building a pipeline of powered infrastructure assets that can drive Vulcan's long-term growth."

The Company's first-half financial results largely reflect its historical operations and were impacted by several items, including certain non-recurring costs and revenue adjustments associated with the November 2025 electrical switchgear failure, business development investments related to the Company's strategic transition, and losses on digital currency.

• Generated $20.0 million of power and capacity revenue during the first six months of 2026, an increase of 70% from the prior-year period; and

In addition, all statements that address operating performance and future performance, events or developments that are expected or anticipated to occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Matters and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements include but are not limited to the matters and factors described in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of Vulcan's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as may be amended from time to time, its subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and its other filings with the SEC.

Use of Non-GAAP Information

To provide investors and others with additional information regarding Vulcan's financial results, Vulcan has disclosed in this press release the non-GAAP operating performance measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Debt and Net Debt. Management believes that the use of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Debt and Net Debt provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company's financial measures with those of comparable companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. "EBITDA" is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which is then adjusted for stock-based compensation and other special items determined by management, including, but not limited to, gains or losses from the sales of assets, gains on settlements of related party liabilities, contract pricing settlements and switchgear repairs. "Adjusted Free Cash Flow" is defined as net cash flow provided by (used for) operating activities less purchases of and deposits for property and equipment, which is then adjusted to add revenue from digital assets production and remove proceeds from the sale of digital assets already included in operating activities. Digital assets (i.e., bitcoin) generated from mining are treated as an adjustment to reconcile net income (loss) to cash used in operating activities in the GAAP financial statements. This Adjusted Free Cash Flow measure approximates the Company's cash flow as if such digital assets, which are highly liquid, continued to be liquidated at the time of receipt, and presented within operating activities, instead of being presented within investing activities as a result of the Company's bitcoin retention strategy. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is not intended to be a measure of residual cash available for management's discretionary use because it omits significant sources and uses of cash flow, including, without limitation, mandatory debt repayments and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on digital assets. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Total Debt and Net Debt is total long-term debt (including the current portion), which is reported at amortized cost on the Company's consolidated balance sheet in accordance with U.S. GAAP (ASC 470-60). "Total Debt" differs from the GAAP measure of total long-term debt as it represents the aggregate outstanding principal indebtedness under the Company's 8.50% Senior Notes due 2026, 10.00% Senior Notes due 2030 and, following the closing of the $39.4 million strategic investment transaction described herein (the "PIPE Transaction"), the senior secured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $10.0 million to be issued to MIG REF II INFR, LLC ("MIG") (the "MIG Convertible Note"), including any paid-in-kind interest added to the outstanding principal amount of the MIG Convertible Note, excluding adjustments for unamortized discounts, premiums and issuance costs that are netted against principal under GAAP to arrive at the carrying value. "Net Debt" is defined as Total Debt less cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) and digital assets. The Company's computation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all companies may not calculate these non-GAAP financial measures in the same fashion. For example, Vulcan's presentation of Total Debt and Net Debt may be different from similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies given the inclusion of the fair market value of digital assets in the calculation of Net Debt. These non-GAAP financial measures are a supplement to and not a substitute for or superior to, Vulcan's results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures presented by Vulcan may be different from non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Specifically, Vulcan believes the non-GAAP information provides useful measures to investors regarding Vulcan's financial performance by excluding certain costs and expenses that Vulcan believes are not indicative of its core operating results. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results or guidance prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because of these limitations, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Debt and Net Debt should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Vulcan compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Total Debt and Net Debt on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation of net loss (income) to EBITDA (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA, net cash flow provided by (used for) operating activities to Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and the Company's indebtedness to Total Debt and Net Debt, and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's business.
