1.82USD+0.55% · 1 dayClose 04 Nov 2026

HIVE Digital Technologies is a sustainable-energy focused digital infrastructure company that uses cash flow from its hashrate services to fund expansion into AI and high-performance computing through its subsidiary BUZZ HPC. The current stake is its transition from bitcoin mining toward AI infrastructure, while it must absorb large net losses driven by non-cash provisions, such as the one tied to the Swedish VAT dispute. Total capacity of about 464.4 MW and revenue of 297.8 million USD in fiscal 2026 show the scale of the business.

At the close of 04 Nov 2026, HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (HIVE) stock was 1.82 USD (+0.55% on the day), with market capitalisation 499.2 m USD, beta 2.74, 52-week range 1.71–5.08 USD. Latest reported quarter (Q1 2027): revenue of 79.1 m USD (+73.5% YoY), net income of -142.9 m USD (−508.1% YoY), diluted EPS -0.54 USD.

Memo

HIVE DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES LTD. (HIVE). Latest full fiscal year: 2026; data up to 2026-06-30.

Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 297.8 m USD in 2026; YoY growth 158.3%; net margin -98.5%; ROE -66.4%.

Valuation cannot be computed from the available data.

Insufficient data for a verdict (indicators available: 3 of at least 6; score weight coverage: 18.8% of at least 60%; valuation methods computed: 0 of at least 1).

Text generated deterministically from the figures shown; no language model. Not investment advice.

What supports the thesis

  • Revenue CAGR 3Y: 41.0%
  • Current ratio: 2.0x

What contradicts it

No signal among the computed factors. That is not an absence of risk: factors without data were not assessed, and business risks (margins, inventory, demand) are in the source-based analysis.

Not assessed (insufficient data or a ratio without meaning): ROIC, FCF conversion, EPS CAGR 3Y, Net debt / EBITDA, Interest coverage, P/E (TTM), EV/EBITDA, FCF yield, Shareholder yield (distributions), Payout ratio (FCF).

    AI analysis

    AI-generatedAI-generated analysis (Claude) from cited public sources; it may contain errors. Not investment advice. As of 27 Oct 2026 · Model: claude-haiku-5-5.

    In brief

    HIVE Digital Technologies is a sustainable-energy focused digital infrastructure company that uses cash flow from its hashrate services to fund expansion into AI and high-performance computing through its subsidiary BUZZ HPC. The current stake is its transition from bitcoin mining toward AI infrastructure, while it must absorb large net losses driven by non-cash provisions, such as the one tied to the Swedish VAT dispute. Total capacity of about 464.4 MW and revenue of 297.8 million USD in fiscal 2026 show the scale of the business 1.

    SWOT

    Strengths

    • The company has a scalable data center base with advantageous power sources and solid reported liquidity after the quarter ended June 30, 2026 13. Hashrate cash flow supports AI investment.
    • Management has experience building and running large-scale data centers, and the ability to convert existing sites to Tier-III infrastructure reduces development costs 1.
    • The three-year AI contracts give visibility on future revenue and show that the market accepts the company's services 3.

    Weaknesses

    • The large net loss in the quarter ended June 30, 2026 shows sensitivity of results to non-cash items and high depreciation charges 3.
    • A significant share of revenue still comes from Bitcoin mining, while the AI segment is at an early stage with comparatively small revenue within the company 13.
    • Power contracts with limited terms and dependence on their renewal create uncertainty for long-term operations 1.

    Opportunities

    • If contracted GPU Cloud ARR grows toward its targets, the company could diversify revenue away from mining volatility 3.
    • Unallocated capacity in Paraguay could offer flexibility for AI or hashrate projects, depending on which returns are most attractive 3.
    • Demand for sovereign infrastructure in Canada could produce new projects if governments and enterprises prefer local providers 1.

    Threats

    • An outcome of the Swedish tax dispute could create costs beyond the provision already recorded 3.
    • A fall in Bitcoin prices or a rise in network difficulty could significantly reduce hashrate revenue 1.
    • Strong competition from large cloud providers and specialist operators could press prices in the GPU segment 1.

    Risks

    • Swedish tax disputehigh

      The company recorded a non-cash provision related to contested VAT in Sweden and continues its appeals, while acknowledging the outcome remains uncertain 3.

    • Expiry of energy contractshigh

      Power purchase agreements for Paraguay run until the end of 2027, and continued operation depends on renegotiating or replacing them on acceptable terms 1.

    • Bitcoin price volatilitymedium

      Mining revenue depends on the coin price and network difficulty, which can cause large swings in quarterly results 1.

    • Rapid GPU obsolescencemedium

      Technological progress could make existing GPUs less competitive, requiring frequent equipment replacement 1.

    • Reliance on external financingmedium

      Expansion requires additional capital, and share issuance through at-the-market programs can dilute existing shareholders 13.

    Investment thesis

    What would need to be true (bull case)

    • Rapid revenue growth combined with long-term AI contracts and an advantageous power portfolio could turn HIVE into an AI infrastructure platform with revenue steadier than mining 13.
    • If the GPU Cloud ARR target is reached, the company could show its dual model works and attract new institutional clients in Canada 3.
    • Unallocated capacity in Paraguay and Tier-III projects in the pipeline offer growth options that do not depend only on the Bitcoin price 3.

    What would break the thesis

    • The large net loss and provisions for the Swedish tax dispute show results can be strongly affected by items unrelated to current operations 3.
    • Dependence on Bitcoin mining and on power contracts with limited terms makes profitability vulnerable to price or regulatory changes 1.
    • GPU demand and rental prices are still forming, and the ARR target depends on successful deployment and market conditions 3.

    The business

    HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. describes itself as a digital infrastructure company focused on sustainable energy, operating data centers in Canada, Sweden and Paraguay with about 464.4 MW of capacity 1. The business model combines hashrate services sold to mining pools, which generate cash flow, with expansion into AI and HPC, undertaken mainly through its subsidiary BUZZ High Performance Computing Inc. 1. The company aims to move from a traditional hashrate provider to an integrated sovereign AI infrastructure platform for governments, enterprises and research institutions, particularly in Canada 1.

    The company is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Capital Markets, as well as on the Colombian Stock Exchange, and reports under US GAAP 12. Through partnerships HIVE expanded AI services in Paraguay, and contracts for Nvidia B200 GPUs in Manitoba were signed for two years 1. In its latest reported quarter, the company announced a three-year agreement with Bell AI Fabric supporting Cohere, adding significant contracted ARR to what was already live 3.

    With revenue up 73.5% year-over-year in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 and reported cash of 208.0 million USD as of June 30, 2026, HIVE bases its expansion on both segments 3. However, the net result remains negative because of non-cash items, and the outlook depends on executing data center projects and AI contracts 3.

    Segments

    Hashrate services (Bitcoin mining)

    The hashrate segment generates most of current revenue by selling computing power to mining pools under an FPPS payout model 1. In the first quarter of fiscal 2027, digital currency revenue reached 72.1 million USD 3. Installed capacity of about 25.2 EH/s as of July 31, 2026 2 is concentrated in Paraguay and Canada 1.

    Market context

    The market in which HIVE operates combines two areas of growing demand: Bitcoin mining, where the company sells hashrate, and AI infrastructure, where demand for sovereign compute and data localization is rising 1. Mining is dominated by mining pools, and revenue depends on network difficulty and the Bitcoin price 1. In GPU cloud, demand from institutions and start-ups is supported by costs the company says are lower than those of major hyperscale providers 1.

    The energy and data center market is a key factor, since access to cheap power and grid capacity limits expansion 1. The company says it operates in energy-advantaged regions, but its power contracts have limited terms, so their renewal is essential to long-term development 12.

    Trends

    • Demand for sovereign AI infrastructuretailwind

      The company links its strategy to a trend of governments and enterprises keeping data and compute within national borders, especially in Canada 1. If this demand turns into long-term contracts, it could support growth in HPC ARR 3.

    • Bitcoin price and network difficulty cyclemixed

      Mining revenue depends on Bitcoin rewards and network difficulty, factors the company does not control 1. Reward reductions after the April 2024 halving could compress margins if prices do not compensate 1.

    • Cost and availability of energyheadwind

      Energy prices can fluctuate because of regulation, weather and demand, and short or medium-term supply contracts could be hard to renew on economic terms 1. Geopolitical conflicts affecting European energy markets are cited as sources of uncertainty 1.

    • Renewal and obsolescence of hardwaremixed

      Faster technological progress in GPUs could make existing equipment less competitive and require further investment 1. Investment in more efficient ASIC machines, such as the 2026 upgrade cycle, shows this pressure is active 1.

    Competitive position

    HIVE competes on two fronts: Bitcoin mining, where it is one hashrate provider among many, and AI cloud, where rivals are cloud providers and specialist data center operators 1. The company's stated advantage is energy cost and combining hashrate resources with GPUs, but the sector has many larger players with more capital 1.

    In HPC, HIVE is compared with infrastructure providers able to offer capacity for inference and training of large models, and partnerships with large players such as Bell AI Fabric can help it but may also limit commercial flexibility 3. The company says its prices are competitive with established hyperscalers, a claim that depends on market conditions 1.

    • Mining pools (hashrate buyers and partners)

      Buyers of hashrate to which HIVE is a supplier; they are not direct competitors for the service, but changes in their terms affect company revenue 1.

    • Hyperscale cloud providers

      Large cloud providers against which HIVE compares its GPU pricing, arguing it offers savings to clients 1.

    • Other AI data center operators

      Companies offering GPU capacity and colocation to the same enterprise and institutional clients 1.

    • Other Bitcoin miners with low-cost energy operations

      Competitors in the hashrate segment that rely on the same hydro energy cost advantages 1.
