Bitcoin Mining Company Announces Loss as Bitcoin Rises Above $100,000! Here Are the Details

Bitcoin mining and energy infrastructure company Hut 8 has reported a net loss of $134.3 million in the first quarter of 2025 as it undergoes a significant strategic transformation. Hut 8 Reports $134 Million Quarterly Loss Due to Strategic Transformation and Start of Subsidiary This huge loss comes amid intense investment activity and the launch of its new Bitcoin mining subsidiary, American Bitcoin. Quarterly revenue fell 58% year over year to $21.8 million, while adjusted EBITDA fell 60% to a loss of $117.7 million. Hut 8 attributed these results to its transition from traditional mining to a more integrated energy and digital infrastructure platform. “As our results show, the first quarter was a deliberate and necessary investment phase. We believe the benefits of this work will become increasingly evident in the coming quarters,” said Asher Genoot, Hut 8 CEO. A key part of Hut 8’s restructuring was the creation of American Bitcoin, a newly established subsidiary focused on Bitcoin mining and hoarding. This company was founded through a strategic addition of Hut 8’s ASIC mining fleet to American Data Centers, Inc., which is backed by investors such as Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. The company said American Bitcoin provides a “pure” mining platform and simplifies Hut 8’s capital allocation, freeing up resources to expand other lines of business such as high-performance computing (HPC). Operational Highlights Despite financial losses, Hut 8 made strong operational progress in the first quarter: Hashrate increased by 79%, reflecting aggressive infrastructure upgrades. Fleet efficiency increased by 37% thanks to a major ASIC upgrade completed in early April. The company held 10,264 Bitcoins worth $847.2 million as of March 31, 2025. Hut 8 shares closed up 11.93% at $14.17 on Thursday, buoyed by a general rally in crypto markets as Bitcoin broke through the $100,000 resistance level. The company’s strategic turnaround and increase in mining efficiency appear to have caught the attention of investors who are closely watching to see if Hut 8 can benefit from its new direction in the coming quarters. *This is not investment advice.
