Cleanspark Stock Dips After-Hours On Q4 Revenue Miss — CFO Says ‘Matter Of Time’ Before Onboarding First Customer

The company reported revenue of $223.7 million for the three months ended Sept. 30, while analysts expected $227.1 million, according to Fiscal.ai data.

• CleanSpark also posted a net loss of $900,000, compared with a profit of $257.4 million in the previous quarter. This is due to a much larger gain on the fair value of Bitcoin during the third quarter and noncash tax adjustments recorded at fiscal year-end.
• The company has moved to close the gap with peers with rapidly expanding operations. It acquired 271 acres of land in Austin County, Texas, last month.
• “Our conversations with offtakers are ongoing, and it is not a matter of if but when we will have our first customer.” — Chief Financial Officer Gary Vecchiarelli.
