HPC lease revenue reaches $63.0 million, representing ~83% of third-quarter revenue

102 MW of critical IT capacity online at Lake Mariner, with an additional 336 MW under construction and progressing within cost guidance

Secured Google Credit Backstop for Anticipated Project Financing in Support of $19 Billion Anthropic Lease; Executed Definitive Fluor EPC Agreement at Justified Data Campus

Muskie contracted power expands to 1 GW; Company reaffirms target of contracting 250–500 MW of incremental critical IT capacity annually

EASTON, Md., Nov. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TeraWulf Inc. (Nasdaq: WULF) (“TeraWulf” or the “Company”), a vertically integrated owner, developer and operator of large-scale digital infrastructure, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026 and provided an update on execution across its power-backed digital infrastructure platform.

Third-quarter results reflect continued growth in contracted HPC operations at Lake Mariner and significant progress across the Company’s development portfolio, including the Justified and Muskie data campuses in Kentucky.

Third Quarter 2026 and Recent Highlights

  • Financial Performance: Generated third-quarter revenue of $76.2 million, including $63.0 million of HPC lease revenue, representing approximately 83% of total revenue. Net income increased to approximately $709.9 million, benefiting from a non-cash change in fair value of warrants. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was approximately $(12.8) million.
  • Lake Mariner: Operated 102 MW of revenue-generating critical IT capacity as of September 30, 2026, with an additional 336 MW under construction across CB-4 and CB-5. CB-4 remains on track for phased delivery and rent commencement during the fourth quarter. CB-5 remains targeted to begin phased delivery in early 2027. WULF Compute continues to progress within the Company’s previously disclosed cost guidance of $8 million to $10 million per critical IT MW.
  • Justified: Executed a 20-year lease with Anthropic for approximately 401 MW of critical IT capacity, representing approximately $19 billion of contracted revenue over the initial term. On November 4, 2026, TeraWulf announced a Google Credit Backstop for Project Financing in support of Anthropic’s lease and a definitive EPC agreement with Fluor Enterprises, Inc. covering three data center buildings. Phased ready-for-service completions are expected to begin in late 2027 and continue through the second quarter of 2028.
  • Muskie: Increased contracted power capacity from 500 MW to 1,000 MW through amended electric service and transmission infrastructure agreements with Kentucky Power Company, subject to approval by the Kentucky Public Service Commission. The expansion advances the anticipated delivery of the second 500 MW phase to 2029.
  • Liquidity and Financial Flexibility: Ended the quarter with approximately $2.4 billion of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Subsequent to quarter-end, TeraWulf increased commitments under its Revolving Credit Agreement from $250 million to $400 million and added an uncommitted accordion feature permitting up to $150 million of additional commitments, subject to certain conditions.
  • Capital Recycling: Completed the sale of the Company’s 50.1% interest in the Abernathy Joint Venture, receiving $250 million of cash consideration during the quarter with the remaining consideration expected to be received (i) $150 million on or before December 31, 2026, and (ii) approximately $130 million, subject to certain adjustments, on or before April 30, 2027. The Company recognized a $95 million gain on the sale during the quarter.
  • Growth Target: Reaffirmed the Company’s target of contracting 250 MW to 500 MW of incremental critical IT capacity annually, with a continued focus on secured power, high-quality customer demand and attractive risk-adjusted returns.

Management Commentary

Paul Prager, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TeraWulf, commented:

“Third-quarter results reflect strong execution across the business. Lake Mariner is delivering contracted capacity and generating revenue, Justified has the customer, credit support and construction framework to move forward at scale, and Muskie gives us a contracted path to a gigawatt of power.

We remain disciplined about where we deploy capital and the returns we require. Our focus is simple: execute on our commitments, protect our economics and create long-term value for shareholders.”

Patrick Fleury, Chief Financial Officer of TeraWulf, added:

“We ended the quarter with substantial liquidity and further strengthened our financial flexibility through the Abernathy monetization and expansion of our revolving credit facility.

With Lake Mariner progressing within cost guidance and Justified supported by investment-grade credit, we remain well positioned to fund our contracted development while maintaining balance sheet flexibility.”

Non-GAAP Measure

The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA, which is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company defines non-GAAP “Adjusted EBITDA” as net income (loss) adjusted for: (i) impacts of interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; (ii) stock-based compensation expense, amortization of right-of-use asset, accretion of asset retirement obligations, related party expenses settled with respect to Common Stock and stock-based charitable contribution to The TeraWulf Charitable Foundation which are non-cash items that the Company believes are not reflective of its general business performance, and for which the accounting requires management judgment, and the resulting expenses could vary significantly in comparison to other companies; (iii) equity in net loss of investee, net of tax, related to the Abernathy Joint Venture and the gain on sale of equity interest in investee; (iv) interest income and other (loss) income, net for which management believes are not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operating activities; (v) change in fair value of warrant liabilities, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss on disposals of property, plant and equipment and impairment of property, plant and equipment which are not reflective of the Company’s general business performance; and (vi) acquisition-related transaction costs which management believes are not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operating activities.

Management believes that providing this non-GAAP financial measure allows for meaningful comparisons between the Company's core business operating results and those of other companies, and provides the Company with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating its own core business operating results over different periods of time. In addition to management's internal use of non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is also useful to investors and analysts in comparing the Company’s performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis. Management believes the foregoing to be the case even though some of the excluded items involve cash outlays and some of them recur on a regular basis (although management does not believe any of such items are normal operating expenses necessary to generate the Company’s revenues). For example, the Company expects that share-based compensation expense, which is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, will continue to be a significant recurring expense over the coming years and is an important part of the compensation provided to certain employees, officers, directors and consultants.

The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures provided by other companies in the Company’s industry, as other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently. The Company's Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Although management utilizes internally and presents Adjusted EBITDA, the Company only utilizes that measure supplementally and does not consider it to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by U.S. GAAP financial results. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be considered in isolation of, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The following table is a reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure (i.e., net income/loss) for the periods indicated (in thousands):
