Odaily News TeraWulf announced the issuance of 47.4 million shares at $19 per share, raising approximately $9 billion to fund the construction of a large-scale data center campus in Hawesville, Kentucky, repay bridge financing, and support future expansion.

The company also disclosed preliminary performance for the first quarter of 2026, expecting revenue to be between $30 million and $35 million, with approximately $3.1 billion in cash on hand and total debt of about $5.8 billion.TeraWulf's management pointed out that high-performance computing (HPC) hosting revenue now accounts for over half of its income, surpassing Bitcoin mining revenue for the first time, driving a shift in its revenue structure towards more stable, long-term cash flows. Analysts believe that while this financing round brings equity dilution, it helps support the expansion of AI infrastructure and enhances visibility for future growth. Overall, this move reflects the industry trend of mining companies accelerating their shift towards AI and high-performance computing to reduce reliance on Bitcoin price volatility and improve profitability stability.
