On August 21, Cipher Mining Inc. rose 5.67% in regular trading, trading at $17.85/share, with turnover of $70.30 million. The stock had declined over 10% in the prior two trading sessions and staged a technical rebound during today's session.
On the news front, the company reported Q2 EPS of -$0.65, significantly missing the analyst consensus estimate of -$0.22 by 195%, while revenue of $24.8 million fell 43% year-over-year and came in well below the expected $32.5 million. The stock has experienced violent swings since the August 4 earnings release, with alternating rebounds and pullbacks.
However, providing downside support is the company's AI data center pivot. Its first AI data center, Black Pearl, began delivering capacity and collecting rent in early August — two months ahead of schedule. Additionally, Cipher secured a development option on a new Texas site called Apollo. As of June 30, cash and equivalents stood at $831.8 million, bolstering its balance sheet for the transition ahead.
