Hyperscale Data Reduces Debt by $25 Million, Strengthening Capital Structure and Bolstering Financial Flexibility Ahead of Michigan AI Data Center Expansion

PR Newswire

LAS VEGAS, Aug. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), a diversified holding company ("Hyperscale Data" or the "Company"), today announced it has reduced its outstanding consolidated non-affiliated debt by approximately $25 million year-to-date. This milestone represents a substantial improvement to the Company's capital structure, positioning it for long-term financial strength as it advances development of the flagship artificial intelligence ("AI") data center in Michigan of its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Alliance Cloud Services, LLC ("ACS").

The $25 million debt reduction, achieved through a combination of repayments and strategic conversions, has meaningfully lowered leverage, improved liquidity ratios and enhanced the Company's ability to access growth capital on more favorable terms. This step supports Hyperscale Data's broader objective to build a financially resilient platform capable of funding large-scale infrastructure development while delivering long-term value to stockholders.

"Reducing our debt by $25 million is not just a milestone, it is a strategic step toward unlocking our full potential to become a leading AI infrastructure company," said Milton "Todd" Ault III, Founder and Executive Chairman of Hyperscale Data. "This significantly stronger balance sheet allows us to move more decisively as we execute on key initiatives, including power expansion, component procurement, and hyperscale customer onboarding."

The debt reduction comes as ACS prepares to incrementally increase the power capacity at its 617,000-square-foot data center campus in Michigan. Once completed, the Michigan facility is expected to serve as a hub for enterprise-grade and hyperscale AI workloads. It is our expectation that we can increase the power capacity to 70 megawatts ("MW") over the next 20 months through new natural gas distribution infrastructure that will enable on-site power generation. Ultimately, we expect that the facility's power capacity will reach approximately 340 MW, subject to the negotiation and execution of an agreement with the local utility provider and securing appropriate funding.

"We are positioning Hyperscale Data to be financially agile and operationally ready," added Ault. "As AI and compute-intensive applications grow exponentially, we believe this debt reduction enables us to attract strategic partners, optimize capital deployment, and scale infrastructure with greater speed and precision."

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 first quarter of 2026. 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, social gaming 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 stockholders of ACG upon the occurrence of the Divestiture.
