APLD - Update - Earnings
Bullish Points:
Applied Digital's fiscal third quarter 2024 financials show promising developments with a significant revenue increase to $43.3 million, marking a 208% rise from the previous year. This growth is fueled by expanded data center capacities and new revenue from cloud services. Strategically, the company has secured an exclusive agreement and executed a Letter of Intent for a substantial 400 MW capacity lease with a U.S.-based hyperscaler, indicating strong future revenue potential. Additionally, the company has significantly strengthened its balance sheet through $160 million in asset sales and financing transactions, improving financial stability. Operational enhancements are also underway, with the Ellendale facility expected to reach 65%-75% capacity by the end of May 2024, following setbacks.
Bearish Points:
Despite the revenue increase, Applied Digital reported a substantial expansion in its net loss to $62.8 million for the quarter, up from $7.3 million in the same period last year, reflecting higher operational costs and significant expenses from facilities not yet generating revenue. The cost of revenues and administrative expenses surged due to increased energy costs and growth-related expenses such as higher depreciation, amortization, and personnel costs. The company also faced operational challenges, including power outages at its data centers, notably affecting the Ellendale facility, which impacted both operations and revenue generation. Adjusted EBITDA also moved into negative territory, posting a loss of $2.3 million compared to a gain in the previous year.
Summary of Financial Improvements from Previous Reports:
Comparing this quarter's results to previous reports, Applied Digital has seen a robust increase in revenues due to higher data center capacity and the launch of cloud services. However, this revenue growth has been accompanied by a rise in expenses and a deeper net loss, driven by scaling operations and ramp-up costs at new facilities. The company's balance sheet has been fortified with additional cash through asset transactions, helping to manage increased debt levels and support ongoing expansion efforts.
Regarding the market's reaction, I'll be keen to see how it responds tomorrow. I don't see much that's going to allow this to be valued much higher.. I am currently accumulating the stock and would welcome any dips in price as opportunities to purchase more shares at a discount. I still want to see that 1.90 area to load up bags.
