Insights
The financial results reveal concerning trends despite the apparent reduction in net losses. Revenue growth of
Notable red flags include the significant decline in product sales (-
The operational metrics reveal mixed performance in SAIHEAT's technology deployment. The expansion to 150 PH/s hash rate with 27.3 J/TH efficiency is competitive but not industry-leading. The introduction of RACKCAB and HYDROCAB products shows innovation in heat recycling, potentially opening new revenue streams in sustainable computing.
The strategic pivot toward nuclear energy through multiple MoUs and WNA membership indicates diversification efforts, though monetization remains unclear. The CO2 reduction claims of 96,000 pounds monthly at the aquatic center project could attract ESG-focused partnerships.

Recent Developments
On-site Project Development Update in the U.S.
- We expanded our SAI NODE Marietta facility, initiated a scale-up that began in December 2023. This expansion included the strategic addition of 478 Bitmain bitcoin mining machines, increasing our hash rate capacity by approximately 68 PH/s. With this deployment, we now have around 150 PH/s operational hash rate for our self-mining operations, achieving a self-mining efficiency of approximately 27.3 J/TH.
We signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Idaho Competitive Aquatics, LLC in August 2024 to develop a model case of our Advanced Computing Center Ecosystem (ACCE), which is to utilize recycled computing heat as a replacement of nature gas heaters at the aquatic center. Upon the completion of the project, the new ACCE system is expected to eliminate CO2 emission from original nature gas heating by up to 96,000 pounds per month and lowering facility heating costs by over40% immediately.
We announced our latest All-in-One ACCE products, RACKCAB and HYDROCAB, which integrate server hosting system, CDU system and computing heat capture/recycling system into one standard cabinet. Our All-in-One ACCE product is developed as a low-cost and easy-to-install system for computing heat recycling. Both products are currently deployed and under installation at our customer.
