The company has had an impressive earnings surprise history. It surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the four trailing quarters and missed in one, delivering an earnings surprise of 166.3%, on average.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the top line is pegged at $93 million, suggesting a 79.2% year-over-year increase. Block Mining’s buyout is anticipated to have fueled top-line growth.
Riot Platforms’ revenues are likely to have benefited from growth and enhancement of its Bitcoin mining business on the back of the acquisition of Block Mining. This buyout adds 60 megawatts of operating capacity with the ability to expand swiftly to 110 megawatts in 2024 by utilizing the current infrastructure and a pipeline to build more than 300 megawatts in total in Kentucky. This adds nearly 16 EH/s of total hash rate capacity and provides the company with a path to 2 gigawatts of accessible power and 75 EH/s of potential hash rate deployed.
The consensus estimate for loss is pegged at 17 cents per share, whereas it incurred a loss of 25 cents in the year-ago quarter.
