The bitcoin miner posted non-GAAP EPS of $0.02, falling short of the $0.04 consensus estimate by 46.67%, while revenue of $48.96 million trailed expectations by 4.96% and grew just 1.7% year over year. The single biggest drag was $20.18 million in unrealized losses on bitcoin fair value, a stark reversal from $40.56 million in unrealized gains a year earlier, which contributed to a GAAP net loss of $38.98 million on the quarter. Against that backdrop, the operational story offered more encouragement: Cipher ran its upgraded Odessa fleet at approximately 13.5 EH/s and is energizing its Black Pearl site ahead of schedule in May, with early rig deployment set to push self-mining hashrate to roughly 16.0 EH/s by the end of Q2 and 23.1 EH/s by Q3, as the company builds toward its 2.8 GW development pipeline.

Key Takeaways

  • First full quarter of operations with upgraded Odessa fleet at ~13.5 EH/s
  • 602 BTC mined in Q1 2025, up from 585 BTC in Q4 2024
  • Revenue up 16% quarter over quarter to $49 million
  • Active treasury management unlocked ~$90 million in liquidity in Q1
  • Weighted average power price of 2.7 cents per kWh
  • All-in electricity cost per BTC of $23,379 in Q1 2025
  • Operating fleet efficiency of 18.9 J/TH

“The first quarter was marked by disciplined execution and steady progress as we advanced our 2025 expansion plans. Notably, we're thrilled to have partnered with Fortress, a best-in-class financing partner, to develop a next-generation data center at Barber Lake. Fortress will not only bring extensive experience in data center development, but also a strong network of relationships with hyperscalers that complements our active discussions.”
