⛏️ Are Bitcoin miners transforming into AI companies—and has their revenue mix already flipped?
Bitcoin miner IREN reported its FY2027 Q1 results on November 5: total revenue rose 66% quarter over quarter to $228 million, above analysts’ average estimate of $221 million (LSEG).
📊 Where did the revenue come from?
• AI cloud revenue: $200 million, up 182% quarter over quarter (from $71 million last quarter)
• BTC mining revenue: $28 million (down from $67 million last quarter); the company is dismantling mining rigs to make room for GPUs
• AI cloud accounted for about 88% of total revenue
• Net loss narrowed to $263 million from $684 million last quarter; adjusted EBITDA was $66 million (up from $19 million)
• Backlog totaled $20.3 billion, up 22% quarter over quarter, with about two-thirds coming from investment-grade customers
⚠️ What to watch
CNBC reported that the company’s roughly $4 billion annualized revenue target has been pushed back to 2027 at the customer’s request. Reuters also noted that some deliveries to Microsoft were delayed. A large contract value doesn’t mean revenue will materialize immediately.
🤔 What does this mean for BTC?
Miners shifting computing power and electricity to AI is one of the long-term trends in the mining business. In the short term, miners’ coin sales and reductions in new computing capacity are more worth tracking than a single quarter’s results.
Do you think “mining companies → AI computing companies” will become the next big narrative? Join the conversation in the comments 👇
