CleanSpark’s 100,000 BTC mining expansion and Wyoming facility growth

Wyoming expansion dominance

CleanSpark’s Wyoming facility reached 60 EH/s this September, which surpassed the 42.5 EH/s deployed hashrate Riot Platforms reported for the first quarter of 2026. This expansion uses S21 immersion XPs to increase capacity. I view this hashrate jump as a decisive move to control more network power. The company manages a power portfolio of 1.8 GW and deployed 225,137 machines as of June 30, 2026. CleanSpark achieves an average operating hashrate of 42.6 EH/s, though the Wyoming site pushes the total much higher. This facility includes a 30 MW immersion-cooled site and a second 45 MW site that should add 3 EH/s. The company maintains a peak efficiency of 16.07 J/Th for the deployed fleet. I see the company pursue higher efficiency through these immersion-cooled sites. CleanSpark also operates data centers in Georgia, Mississippi, and Tennessee. The company hired Ruben Sahakyan as Senior Vice President of Finance to bolster AI data center financing capabilities. This hire follows the company’s expansion into the market for high-performance computing. The operational hashrate reached 50 EH/s in June.

Treasury and infrastructure costs

To grow a treasury to 100,000 BTC, CleanSpark requires massive infrastructure, and the company currently holds 13,924 Bitcoin as of June 30, 2026. The company signed a 20-year, $6.6 billion triple-net lease at Sandersville to secure long-term cash flows. This expansion plan relies on the $202.6 million in cash the company held at the end of June. I find the $1.8 billion in total long-term debt a significant hurdle for such an ambitious treasury target. The company reported a net loss of $239.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, which marks a significant swing from the net income of $257.4 million recorded during the same period the prior year. Revenue for the same period hit $138.0 million, down from $198.6 million in the previous year. CleanSpark also held $814.9 million in total HODL value as of June 30, 2026, which includes 1,719 Bitcoin posted as collateral. The company also managed a total of 808 MW of utilized power. The company sold Bitcoin at an average price of $69,056 in June. CleanSpark produced 614 BTC during the month ended June 30, 2026, including a peak single day production of 22.57 BTC.

Market positioning and risk

Market valuations show the size gap between these two miners. Riot Platforms has a $7.6 billion market cap, while CleanSpark sits at $3.3 billion as of September 16, 2026. CleanSpark reported quarterly revenues of $138.0 million for the period ended June 30, 2026, which marks a 30.5% decrease from the $198.6 million earned during the same period the prior year. You should look at the cash flow to understand the real risk. CleanSpark generated a free cash flow of negative $216.56 million in the first quarter of 2026. The company also faces a high debt-to-equity ratio of 1.29. I notice that CleanSpark’s total assets reached $2.7 billion as of June 30, 2026, but total liabilities hit $1.9 billion. The company also managed a 47.22% gross margin. In the first quarter of 2026, management used $459.61 million from a $1.15 billion convertible note to perform share repurchases. This reduced the total share base by 3.57% sequentially. CleanSpark’s Bitcoin production reached 614 BTC in the month ended June 30, 2026. I see a current ratio of 10.54 for the company, which suggests liquidity for short-term obligations. CleanSpark’s trailing 12-month revenue reached $679.2 million. CleanSpark’s total Bitcoin holdings in May 2026 were 13,470. Riot Platforms reported an average daily production of 16.4 Bitcoin in the first quarter of 2026. Will the current 0% interest convertible note provide enough breathing room to reach the 100,000 BTC milestone?
