The cleanest landlord in the miner-to-AI cohort got cleaner — Beacon Point is fully let (704 MW, $19.6B base-term), the book is $26.6B / >$1.75B a year of NOI on 16-year amortising investment-grade debt, and the anchor tenant is reported to be Nvidia with Anthropic buying the output — but zero of it pays until Q2–Q3 2027, Phase 2 is not yet financed, and the reported P&L is still a bitcoin mark plus a 54%-owned Trump-linked miner.

After: Hut 8 added a $1.07B four-year revolver at the parent, secured on substantially all of the parent's and guarantors' assets, with no borrowing base. The project companies that hold River Bend and Beacon Point are walled off from it. It is priced off Hut 8's own share price (SOFR + 150 to 200bp on debt-to-market-cap) and its main job, by the company's own words, is letters of credit for power deposits and bridge money until projects get long-term financing. The pipeline "conflict" from the last dossier closes exactly: 9,370 MW minus 710 MW under management is 8,660 MW. The co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer, Michael Ho, raised $58.3M against 1.5M of his shares through a JPMorgan prepaid forward. Asset view unchanged; equity view carries one more insider-liquidity flag.editorial note · the dossier |
