Exhibit 99.1

Hyperscale Data Enters into Settlement Agreementthat is Expected to Result in Defense Affiliate Gresham Worldwide Exiting Chapter 11 on or Before October 1, 2025; Updates 2025 RevenueGuidance to $125–$135 Million


Gresham Worldwide’s Emergence Expectedto Add Approximately $40 Million in Annualized Revenue on a Pro Forma Basis

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE) – June 9, 2025 – Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), a diversified holding company (“Hyperscale Data” or the “Company”), today announced that the Company and Gresham Worldwide, Inc. (“Gresham Worldwide”), currently an affiliated defense business in which the Company holds a majority economic interest, have entered into a comprehensive settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Gresham Worldwide’s senior secured noteholders in its Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. While the Settlement Agreement is subject to court approval, Gresham Worldwide is expected to emerge from bankruptcy as a subsidiary of the Company on or before October 1, 2025.

Upon Gresham Worldwide’s emergence from bankruptcy, Hyperscale Data expects to reconsolidate Gresham Worldwide’s financial results into its financial statements and anticipates that Gresham Worldwide will contribute up to an additional $10 million in consolidated revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025. If the reconsolidation of Gresham Worldwide had occurred on January 1, 2025, on a pro forma basis, a non-GAAP financial measure, this reconsolidation would have been expected to increase the Company’s annualized revenue for 2025 by approximately $40 million.

In connection with the anticipated reconsolidation, Hyperscale Data has raised its full-year 2025 GAAP basis revenue guidance to a range of $125 million to $135 million. The table below presents pro forma figures, which are not necessarily consistent with GAAP, that show the expected revenue run rate including an annualized contribution from Gresham Worldwide:

Revenue Guidance Low End High End
Previously issued guidance $ 115,000,000 $ 125,000,000
Pro forma annualized contribution from Gresham Worldwide 40,000,000 40,000,000
Pro forma total revenue $ 155,000,000 $ 165,000,000

“The settlement marks a turning point for Gresham Worldwide and reflects the hard work and collaboration of all parties involved,” said Milton “Todd” Ault III, Executive Chairman of Hyperscale Data. “We expect Gresham Worldwide’s emergence from bankruptcy to create substantial value for Hyperscale Data through meaningful revenue contribution and operational momentum as we move forward. We look forward to supporting Gresham Worldwide’s long-term growth and success.”

About HyperscaleData, Inc.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary Sentinum, Inc., Hyperscale Data owns and operates a data center at which it mines digital assets and offers colocation and hosting services for the emerging artificial intelligence (“AI”) ecosystems and other industries. Hyperscale Data’s other wholly owned subsidiary, Ault Capital Group, Inc. (“ACG”), is a diversified holding company pursuing growth by acquiring undervalued businesses and disruptive technologies with a global impact.

Hyperscale Data expects to divest itself of ACG on or about December 31, 2025 (the “Divestiture”). Upon the occurrence of the Divestiture, the Company would solely be an owner and operator of data centers to support high-performance computing services, though it may at that time continue to mine Bitcoin. Until the Divestiture occurs, the Company will continue to provide, through ACG and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and strategic investments, mission-critical products that support a diverse range of industries, including an AI software platform, social gaming platform, equipment rental services, defense/aerospace, industrial, automotive, medical/biopharma and hotel operations. In addition, ACG is actively engaged in private credit and structured finance through a licensed lending subsidiary. Hyperscale Data’s headquarters are located at 11411 Southern Highlands Parkway, Suite 190, Las Vegas, NV 89141.

On December 23, 2024, the Company issued one million (1,000,000) shares of a newly designated Series F Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the “Series FPreferred Stock”) to all common stockholders and holders of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis. The Divestiture will occur through the voluntary exchange of the Series F Preferred Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of ACG (collectively, the “ACG Shares”). The Company reminds its stockholders that only those holders of the Series F Preferred Stock who agree to surrender such shares, and do not properly withdraw such surrender, in the exchange offer through which the Divestiture will occur, will be entitled to receive the ACG Shares and consequently be stockholders of ACG upon the occurrence of the Divestiture.
