Missing figures stay unavailable. Forward P/E requires a dated source. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin come from each company's own 10-K, in US dollars, and each row shows that fiscal year. Revenue growth compares the fiscal year with the prior year stated in the same 10-K. Net income is the full year amount attributable to the company, or available to common stockholders where the filing states only that, or consolidated net income. Each row names its basis. Trailing P/E reads "Not meaningful" when the dated trailing diluted EPS is a loss or zero. An operating margin appears only when the filing states both the operating income and the revenue for the same year.
Sources: SEC filings, Gloria daily closes and CoinGecko. Oldest record refresh: Oct 28, 2026, 4:51 PM EDT. Refresh is not a price or filing date. Each row shows its price date and its annual fiscal period. Peers use industry code and company size, or editorial selection. Market cap multiplies that row price by the company share total the latest SEC filing states for every share class together. Trailing P/E divides it by trailing diluted earnings from SEC filings. Rolled earnings per share are approximate because share counts can change between periods. Both appear only when the SEC data carries its date, so they are estimates at one price date, not synchronized filing valuations. Not investment advice.

CleanSpark, a company that built its reputation mining Bitcoin, just pulled off something remarkable: selling roughly $2.25 billion in junk bonds to finance an AI data center leased to Meta Platforms. Investors placed around $10 billion in orders, oversubscribing the deal by more than four times.
The transaction marks the first US high-yield bond offering tied to a Meta data center project.
The deal structure
The offering consists of five-year senior secured notes issued through CSDC Finance I LLC, a CleanSpark subsidiary. Proceeds will fund a 175 megawatt AI data center campus in Sandersville, Georgia.
The data center is backed by a 20-year triple-net lease with Anviran LLC, a Meta subsidiary. In a triple-net lease, the tenant covers rent plus all operating expenses, including taxes, insurance, and maintenance.
Initial yield discussions landed around 8.5%, roughly two percentage points above the average yield for BB-rated debt.

Morgan Stanley led the underwriting, with Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo rounding out the syndicate.
From Bitcoin mining to AI hosting
CleanSpark’s pivot is worth lingering on. The company has been a pure-play Bitcoin miner for years, operating large-scale facilities that consume enormous amounts of electricity to validate transactions on the Bitcoin network. Now it’s channeling that same energy infrastructure expertise into a different compute-intensive business: hosting AI workloads for one of the largest technology companies on the planet.
For CleanSpark, the Meta lease transforms its revenue profile from the volatile world of Bitcoin block rewards into something far more predictable. Twenty years of contracted rent from a tenant with a market capitalization exceeding $1 trillion is a fundamentally different risk proposition.
Prior investment-grade and private placement deals have been structured around Meta data center projects. But those sat comfortably in the safer end of the credit spectrum. This offering breaks new ground by bringing Meta-linked data center financing into the high-yield market.
