Hyperscale Data in Advanced Talks to Deliver 20 MW of AI Compute at Michigan Campus

If the deal is signed the phased buildout would shift power from Bitcoin mining to higher‑margin GPU colocation and set a path to multi‑decade revenue if expanded.

Overview

  • Hyperscale said it entered advanced negotiations through its Alliance Cloud Services unit for a master services agreement to provide roughly 20 megawatts of AI compute capacity, with no definitive contract signed yet as company talks continue.
  • The company said the first 10 MW could be operational about 90 days after signing and a second 10 MW another 90 days later, targeting roughly 20 MW this year if the agreement is executed.
  • Management projects that a 20 MW, 20‑year colocation deal could generate in excess of $1 billion and that a future expansion to 52 MW could raise 20‑year revenue to roughly $2.5 billion, but these figures depend on long‑term terms and renewals.
  • Hyperscale reported holdings of 713.5884 Bitcoin plus about $40.2 million in cash and restricted cash, and said the combined $87.1 million in liquid assets represents roughly 73% of its market capitalization, a factor that has shaped investor reaction.
  • The announcement produced extreme stock volatility including a reported roughly 77% intraday rally followed by profit‑taking, and the plan remains conditional on regulatory approvals, utility agreements, financing, engineering work and an operational shift away from Bitcoin mining that will affect on‑site operations.
