Insights
Hyperscale expands share capacity, strikes AI robotics deal, and maintains preferred dividends.
The authorization of up to 2,500,000,000 Class A shares substantially increases potential equity capacity but does not itself issue new shares. It primarily adjusts capital structure flexibility, with future actions determining any dilution or financing impact.
The Omnipresent–AGIBOT partnership focuses on deploying intelligent robotic systems and AI data collection, aligning with the company’s AI and data center positioning, though no financial terms are disclosed. Regular monthly dividends on the 13.00% Series D and 10.00% Series E preferred series signal continued cash distributions to those preferred holders.

Hyperscale Data Announces Strategic Partnership with AGIBOT for AI Robotics
LAS VEGAS--(PR NEWSWIRE) – April 17, 2026 – Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), an artificial intelligence (“AI”) data center company anchored by Bitcoin (“Hyperscale Data” or the “Company”), today announced that through its wholly owned subsidiary Omnipresent Robotics, LLC (“Omnipresent”), it has entered into a strategic partnership agreement (the “Agreement”) with AGIBOT PTE.

About Hyperscale Data, Inc.
Through its wholly owned subsidiary Sentinum, Inc., Hyperscale Data owns and operates a data center at which it mines digital assets and offers colocation and hosting services for the emerging AI ecosystems and other industries. Hyperscale Data’s other wholly owned subsidiary, Ault Capital Group, Inc. (“ACG”), is a diversified holding company pursuing growth by acquiring undervalued businesses and disruptive technologies with a global impact.
Hyperscale Data currently expects the divestiture of ACG (the “Divestiture”) to occur in the second quarter of 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, medical/biopharma and hotel operations. In addition, ACG is actively engaged in private credit and structured finance through 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.
