Executive Take

"CleanSpark exited the quarter with one of the strongest balance sheets in our sector and a power and land portfolio that is increasingly scarce," said Matt Schultz, CleanSpark's CEO and Chairman.

"We strengthened our financial foundation, secured up to 890 megawatts of high-quality utility potential capacity in the Houston region, and materially advanced our Sandersville site with the acquisition of an additional 122-acre parcel as we progress toward AI tenancy,” he added.

The CEO further noted that the company’s bitcoin mining operations continue to generate durable cash flows which are being redeployed into infrastructure opportunities.
