About the company

Cipher Mining runs large data centers in Texas that have so far mainly mined Bitcoin. The company increasingly also leases space and power at its sites for computing power in the field of artificial intelligence. As of Oct 16, 2026

Fact sheet (from the annual report) Other financial services · New York, USA

Cipher Digital develops and operates large data centers for energy-intensive computing and has transformed itself from a pure Bitcoin miner for this purpose. Until the end of 2025, revenue came from Bitcoin mining, for which the company supplied computing power to mining pools in return for block rewards and fees. In 2025 a subsidiary signed long-term leases with Fluidstack for a data center it is building in Barber Lake; Google backstops certain obligations of the tenant. In October 2025 this was followed by a 15-year lease with Amazon Web Services for the Black Pearl data center under construction. It also operates a data center for Bitcoin mining in Texas and holds further sites in Texas and Ohio.

Key figures with traffic lights

Each light follows a simple, disclosed rule. The comparison is with the sector median of all 97 symbols in the Technology sector on our list (current members of the S&P 500 and other lists).

Revenue growth

Light green: above sector

+319.3% per year, last 3 years

Sector Technology: median +10.0% (93 symbols)

What does this mean? Revenue: over 3 years it grew by 319.3% per year on average – at least as fast as the median company in the sector (+10.0%).

Light rule: Green: grows at least as fast as the sector median (without a sector comparison: grows) · Yellow: grows more slowly · Red: shrinks.

Net income (total)

Light gray: not computable

– per year, last 5 years

Sector Technology: median +13.3% (62 symbols)

per share: not available

What does this mean? There was a loss in the first or last year. An annual growth rate cannot be calculated meaningfully then.

Light rule: Green: grows at least as fast as the sector median (without a sector comparison: grows) · Yellow: grows more slowly · Red: shrinks.

Net margin

Light red: Loss

−367.2% last fiscal year

Sector Technology: median 12.5% (97 symbols)

What does this mean? Of every 100 USD in revenue there was no profit but a loss of 367.17 USD.

Light rule: Green: at least the sector median (without a sector comparison: profit) · Yellow: profit, but below the median · Red: loss.

Debt / equity

Light red: much higher

9.69 latest balance sheet

Sector Technology: median 0.45 (79 symbols)

What does this mean? For every 1 USD of equity there is 9.69 USD of financial debt – more than twice as much as the median company in the sector (0.45). More debt amplifies good and bad years alike.

Light rule: Green: at most the sector median · Yellow: up to twice the median · Red: more than twice · Gray: without a sector comparison.

Payout ratio

Light gray: none found

– Dividend / earnings per share

Sector Technology: median 30% (36 symbols)

What does this mean? The loaded SEC filings of the last two fiscal years contain no dividend per share. Either the company pays none, or it reports it under a different tag.

Light rule: Green: up to 60% of earnings · Yellow: up to 100% · Red: more than earnings or a dividend despite a loss · Gray for real estate (REITs). The sector median is for comparison only.

Profitable years

Light red: 5 loss years

0 of 5 fiscal years with a profit

What does this mean? In 0 of the last 5 fiscal years the bottom line showed a profit. 5 years ended with a loss.

Light rule: Green: profit in every year · Yellow: one loss year · Red: several loss years (at least 3 years needed).
