Bit Digital (NASDAQ:BTBT – Get Free Report) issued its earnings results on Thursday. The company reported ($0.31) earnings per share for the quarter, missing the consensus estimate of ($0.05) by ($0.26), FiscalAI reports. The company had revenue of $32.11 million for the quarter, compared to analyst estimates of $23.58 million. Bit Digital had a negative return on equity of 8.44% and a negative net margin of 145.39%.
Here are the key takeaways from Bit Digital’s conference call:
- Second-quarter revenue rose 15% sequentially to $32.1 million, led by a 42% increase in cloud-services revenue. Operating cash flow for the first six months increased 33% year over year to $46.8 million.
- Management highlighted approximately $1 billion of remaining performance obligations, including $57.7 million expected to be recognized during the rest of 2026 and $136.7 million in 2027. WhiteFiber also expects its North Carolina facility to reach the full contracted run rate under its 10-year, approximately $865 million agreement with Enscale.
- Bit Digital used Ethereum-backed liquidity to provide WhiteFiber with a delayed-draw facility of up to $150 million, preserving its ETH and WhiteFiber ownership while earning a return above staking yields. Management said the bridge is expected to be repaid following permanent financing for the North Carolina facility.
- Bit Digital reported a $107.2 million net loss attributable to shareholders, including a $28.8 million mark-to-market loss on digital assets, a $46 million non-cash impairment on liquid-staked ETH, and $14 million in derivative-liability losses. Ethereum staking revenue also fell sequentially after some ETH was unstaked as collateral.
- Management is evaluating a share buyback because it believes the stock trades at a 40% or greater discount to net asset value, but no timing, size, or funding source has been approved. The company said it will not sell WhiteFiber shares during 2026 and is also considering limited covered calls on a portion of that stake.
