Hut 8 secures capacity contracts from IESO for its natural gas-fired power plants in Ontario, covering 310 megawatts across four facilities.
The company will receive around CAD $530 per megawatt per business day in the first year with potential inflation adjustments for stable long-term revenue.
Hut 8 reports mixed financial performance, with notable revenue and net income figures for 2024, but a loss in the first quarter of 2025. The stock price also reflects industry volatility.
Hut 8 faces legal challenges, including class-action lawsuits related to alleged misleading statements regarding its merger with US Bitcoin Corp. Despite this, the company gains exposure to a government-backed counterparty through its recent deal.
