Company & revenue

About Cipher Mining Inc.

Primary reporting period: 2025-12-31 · Research updated Oct 12, 2026. A research update is not a new financial filing.

Who they are

Cipher Mining Inc. is a United States-based technology enterprise actively engaged in the Bitcoin mining sector. Its primary objective involves the development and expansion of cryptocurrency mining operations, specifically tailored for Bitcoin. Established in 2021, the company maintains its headquarters in New York, New York.

How they make money

Cipher Digital develops and operates industrial-scale data centers, transitioning from a bitcoin mining-focused model to leasing high-performance computing (HPC) data center capacity to hyperscalers under long-term contracts. The company leverages its power origination expertise and site pipeline to provide critical IT load for AI and other compute-intensive applications while maintaining flexibility to deploy bitcoin mining operations.

Products & services

Industrial-scale data center infrastructure, HPC hosting services for hyperscalers, and bitcoin mining operations.

Brands & revenue mix

No separate brand or brand-level revenue disclosure was confirmed in the reviewed sources. This does not mean the company has no brands.

Product / operating segments

Bitcoin MiningUSD 223.94M100.0%

Period ended 2025-12-31Source

Calculated from reported segment revenue. Check the source period and revenue basis before comparing shares. Categories can overlap and may not add to 100%.

Geographic revenue

No reconciled geographic revenue breakdown was confirmed for the current research period.

Customer types

Customer concentration

The company is transitioning to long-term contracts with hyperscalers and does not currently report a specific customer concentration percentage for the fiscal year ended 2025-12-31.

Suppliers, materials & equipment

  • Mining hardware manufacturers — The company sources specialized ASIC hardware for its bitcoin mining operations from various unnamed third-party manufacturers.Source

Strengths

  • Power origination expertiseSource
  • Large-scale data center development capabilitiesSource

Risks

  • Debt agreement restrictions limiting operational flexibilitySource
  • Dependence on the successful development and interconnection of data center sitesSource

Financial risk observations and what to check

These are saved observations about business performance, not predictions. Review the company filings alongside the interpretation below. Latest stored financial period end: 2026-06-30.

Quarterly revenue fell 43.0% versus the same quarter last year.

Check comparable business scope and currency, then separate volume, pricing and divestitures. One weaker quarter does not establish that the same decline will continue.

Total debt increased 2851.5% versus the same quarter last year.

Compare the added borrowing with available cash, cash generation and maturities. A percentage increase from a small starting balance can look large without measuring the full debt burden.

WSS View

The quick read

The overall Wall Street Score is low across its combined quality, valuation and risk inputs. This can reflect an expensive share price, business weaknesses, or both; check Company Quality and the category breakdown before drawing a conclusion.

The model outlook is currently cautious.

What we like
  • •Recent buyback activity is present
What to watch
  • •Elevated debt risk
  • •Valuation is a weaker part of the current profile
  • •Revenue fundamentals are weak
  • •Debt / balance-sheet profile needs attention

Momentum & Volatility Signals

Two different market-behavior signals. Momentum measures direction and trend strength. Volatility measures how large and unstable the price moves are, regardless of direction.

High movement

20D realized vol 94.7% · 60D 98.2% · Acceleration 0.96x
Momentum = Where is it going?

A high momentum score means price has been trending upward with confirming short- and medium-term strength. A low score means downward or weakening momentum.

Volatility = How violently is it moving?

A high volatility score means larger, less stable price swings. It can happen while a stock is rising or falling, so high volatility is not automatically bullish or bearish.

Important: the volatility score above is based on realized price volatility. Implied volatility (IV) comes from options prices and represents the market's expected future movement. Wall Street Score will keep IV separate and will only display it when a verified options-chain feed is available.
