Hyperscale Data Issues Letter to Stockholders

Hyperscale Data Emphasizes the Potential of Its Data Center Business

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep. 23, 2024-- Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), a diversified holding company (“Hyperscale Data,” or the “Company”), today shared a letter from its Chief Executive Officer to its stockholders.

Dear Stockholders,

I hope this message finds you well. I am pleased to share developments that underscore the potential of our Michigan data center amidst the ongoing artificial intelligence (“AI”) evolution. We believe that our Michigan data center is an exceptional property, with 14 acres under roof and an additional 20 open acres for potential future development. This facility is powered by both nuclear and natural gas, providing clean power with a reduced environmental impact. With multiple fiber providers servicing the building and an infrastructure poised for expansion, we believe that our Michigan data center is strategically positioned to become our most valuable asset.

The market for AI data centers is flourishing, bolstered by rapid advancements and demand for technologies like NVIDIA’s AI hardware powering large-language models, such as ChatGPT and Claude. We have seen recent transactions, such as Core Scientific, Inc. securing a hosting contract to deliver about 382 megawatts (“MW”) of infrastructure to the AI company CoreWeave, reflecting the burgeoning demand and significant stakes at play. Further supporting our enthusiasm, a recent Goldman Sachs report indicates that global data center power demand is expected to more than double by 2030 due to AI. This prospective explosion in demand could represent a prime opportunity for us to lead and benefit from this transformative period. As the AI landscape expands, we are positioning our Michigan facility to service the data infrastructure industry and accommodate these cutting-edge developments.

We have received inquiries from a wide range of companies, from innovative AI startups to Fortune 25 industry leaders, that are interested in exploring our Michigan facility. We are engaged in multiple discussions with potential AI companies, many of which are interested in leasing the entire data center to support their expanding AI operations.

Recently, industry leader Core Scientific secured a hosting contract to deliver about 382 megawatts (“MW”) of infrastructure to CoreWeave, with projected cumulative revenue of approximately $6.7 billion, reflecting the burgeoning demand and significant stakes at play. We are excited about replicating such success with our Michigan facility, which we believe will soon house a major AI tenant. Inquiries for our Michigan facility span top-tier companies looking to establish long-term leases, leveraging the site’s potential to support AI advancements.

Hyperscale will focus on building out its Michigan AI data center, with plans to expand its capacity from the current approximately 30 MW to approximately 300 MW, subject to the Company’s receipt of state regulatory approvals and adequate funding, which it may or may not obtain.

Hyperscale is positioning to be a pure-play data center business, with its focal points in Michigan and Montana. This would allow us to concentrate on maximizing the potential of our data centers. We aim to generate substantial long-term cash flow by securing a leading role within the AI data center sector. Additionally, our name and symbol change underscore our strategic focus and determination to leverage our robust infrastructure and prime location in Michigan as a key driver for growth.

As part of this commitment, we plan to distribute our remaining non-core assets to stockholders via one or more special distributions. This includes our crane rental business, lending business, defense business and hotel and real estate business. We are diligently working to ensure this distribution is executed efficiently, to maximize value for our stockholders. The Company anticipates providing an update on its progress made in October.

I am optimistic about the future and remain committed to maximizing stockholder value. We appreciate your continued support as we forge ahead in this promising landscape.

Warm regards,

William B. Horne
