Z Squared (ZSQR) has closed its acquisition of Paradox Data, LLC, adding the energized Union County Campus in El Dorado, Arkansas, to its computing infrastructure portfolio. This is Z Squared's first owned, energized campus and a platform for its planned AI colocation business.
The campus currently has electric service under an interruptible arrangement with Entergy Arkansas for up to approximately 8.0 MW, which Z Squared plans to convert in phases into high-density space for customers that bring and operate their own computing equipment. Paradox Data holds contractual rights to acquire adjacent land and pursue a development pathway targeting an estimated 150+ MW of AI-ready capacity over time, though capacity above the existing 8 MW is not yet contracted, energized or delivered.
The acquisition was completed entirely in stock, with no cash paid at closing and no debt financing incurred. Z Squared's near-term priorities include initial high-density electrical and cooling design, utility and on-site generation planning, advancing adjacent land acquisition and securing its first binding customer request for service.
Z Squared (Nasdaq: ZSQR) released a shareholder letter outlining its power‑first AI infrastructure strategy, centered on acquiring grid‑connected sites and converting them into AI‑ready capacity rather than developing unpowered greenfield projects.
The company highlighted its definitive agreement to acquire Paradox Data and its Union County campus in El Dorado, Arkansas, which currently has about 8 MW of energized capacity, a targeted 50 MW utility interconnection, and a longer‑term objective of up to 150 MW of firm power from utility supply and on‑site generation. This acquisition and the broader site pipeline support a Phase 1 objective of 100 MW of AI‑ready capacity across multiple U.S. locations, described as a target rather than a commitment.
As of June 30, 2026, Z Squared reported $15.5 million in cash, $13.5 million in working capital, no outstanding debt, and what management estimates to be over a year of operating runway under its current plan. The company raised $15.4 million of gross proceeds in the quarter via issuing 1.3 million shares under a standby equity purchase agreement, which is now fully drawn and terminated, and subsequently ended both a $300 million at‑the‑market facility and a committed equity forward purchase agreement without issuing shares or paying termination fees.
The Paradox acquisition is structured entirely in stock through $5 million of Series A convertible preferred at closing and up to $20 million more tied to power milestones, with no cash outlay or new debt. Management set four priorities for the coming year: executing power‑first acquisitions, building the operating platform, maintaining capital discipline, and positioning the company to scale, with progress to be judged on closing Paradox, signing the first paying AI tenant, increasing energized capacity at Union County above roughly 8 MW, and adding sites without incurring debt.
Z Squared (Nasdaq: ZSQR) signed a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of Paradox Data from Paradox Infrastructure, expanding an initially planned majority purchase to a full acquisition. Paradox Data’s key asset is the Union County Campus in El Dorado, Arkansas, a data center development site with existing Entergy Arkansas electric service up to 8.0 MW and a pathway targeting up to 150 MW of AI-ready capacity over time.
The all-stock consideration is up to $25 million in new Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, with $5 million issued at closing at a fixed conversion price of $7.45 per share and up to $20 million tied to four development milestones at the Union County Campus. Z Squared has engaged A2 Advisors to support development. Closing is subject to customary and specific conditions, with a targeted closing within 30 days and an outside date of September 30, 2026, extendable to December 31, 2026. The company cautions there is no assurance the deal or milestones will be completed as anticipated.
Z Squared (Nasdaq: ZSQR) has delivered notice to terminate its $300 million at-the-market sales agreement with Roth Capital Partners and its $50 million Committed Equity Forward Purchase Agreement with Translucent Matter. The ATM Program will end on July 21, 2026, and the Forward Purchase Agreement on August 17, 2026; no shares will be sold or issued under either during the notice periods, and no termination fees are due. According to the company, no shares were ever sold or issued under these programs, existing capital resources provide roughly two years of operating runway, and future financings are expected to be tied to specific project milestones rather than standing equity issuance facilities.
Z Squared (Nasdaq: ZSQR) reported that as of July 14, 2026, it has 52,976,813 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, as confirmed by its transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

The ATM agreement does not require the company to issue or sell shares, and management has not decided to use the program at this time. Z Squared may use these capital-raising arrangements in the future to fund site conversion, acquisitions, and working capital, depending on opportunities and market conditions. Details on the company’s capital structure, outstanding securities, and resale restrictions are available in its SEC filings, including a Form 8-K/A filed June 1, 2026, a Form S-1 resale registration statement, and subsequent filings.
