Hello!
New Alert: Host Digital Inc. (NYSE American: HOST)
HOST is our new NYSE American breakout alert.
We were amongst the first to bring it to your attention in early September after which it rallied +89% in under 2 weeks.
Now, we are alerting you to another breakout opportunity.
HOST is in the single hottest theme in the entire market - AI and high-performance computing data center infrastructure.
And most investors screening for AI data center names have no idea this company exists yet.
HOST, the new AI entity, just started trading on the NYSE in September.
HOST is a NYSE American listed “vertically integrated digital infrastructure company”.
HOST “develops, acquires, owns, and operates institutional-quality data centers in the United States that support AI and HPC workloads.”
The company focuses on “RightScaled sites of 20 MW to 100 MW with existing or near-term access to power, leased under long-term contracts to strong or credit-enhanced counterparties”.
HOST “seeks to own and control the real estate, power, and data center infrastructure at each site, and provides turnkey facilities where tenants select and deploy their own compute infrastructure and model layers.”
Through its wholly owned subsidiaries, HOST also “operates a portfolio of 19 natural and organic grocery stores across six states under the Ada's Natural Market, Paradise Health & Nutrition, Mother Earth's Storehouse, Greens Natural Foods, Ellwood Thompson's, and GreenAcres Market brands.”
“Healthy Choice Wellness Corp.'s natural and organic grocery business continues to operate as a division of the Company following the merger.”
The “development model is centered on three disciplines:
securing near-term, energized power;
targeting right-sized sites with approximately 20 MW to 100 MW of grid power available today or in the near-term, supplemented by behind-the-meter generation where appropriate; and
developing against long-term contracted demand supported by strong or credit-enhanced counterparties.”
Why This Matters Right Now…
The entire AI buildout has run into a bottleneck that has nothing to do with chips.
It is power.
As the company’s Chief Executive Officer put it directly:
"Power-ready sites capable of meeting AI deployment timelines are increasingly scarce.”
That scarcity is exactly what creates enormous opportunity, and the company already owns an energized facility with contracted demand attached to it.
HOST has announced multiple accomplishments recently.
At the end of August, the company announced:
“HCWC Announces Host Digital Secures $1.25 Billion, 15-Year AI Data Center Lease”
Transaction and Lease Highlights
“$1.25 billion in base-term contracted revenue: Host Digital's 15-year lease is structured on a take-or-pay basis with annual rent escalators and renewal options.
43 MW of critical IT load: Host Digital will deliver capacity at its existing northeast Oklahoma data center facility, with delivery to tenant expected in the first half of 2027.
Approximately $3.2 billion in potential contract value: If all renewal options are exercised, the lease represents approximately $3.2 billion in contracted revenue over a 30-year total term.
The lease is expected to be supported by a backstop from a U.S.-based, investment grade global technology company
Furthermore:
"The 43 MW, 15-year lease provides a contracted foundation for our northeast Oklahoma facility and validates Host Digital's strategy," said Harmol Samra, Chief Executive Officer of Host Digital and expected Chief Executive Officer of the combined company. "Power-ready sites capable of meeting AI deployment timelines are increasingly scarce. Our team is focused on converting that advantage into execution by delivering this capacity in the first half of 2027 and scaling a repeatable model for leading AI and HPC customers."
On September 21, 2026, the company announced:
“Host Digital Inc. Announces Closing of Common Stock Offering”
HOST “announced the closing of its previously announced underwritten public offering”.
“The Offering generated gross proceeds of approximately $17.5 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.”
HOST “intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for data center investments, general and administrative expenses, capital expenditures, working capital and other general corporate purposes.”
In addition, on September 22, the company announced:
“Host Digital Debuts on NYSE American as HOST and Exercises its Right to Acquire a Second Site from its Sponsor for its AI Data Center Platform”
“Site II would add approximately $391 million in base-term contracted revenue to previously announced base-term contracted revenue of $1.25 billion for Site I.”
“Host Digital also announced that it has signed a Preferential Rights Agreement with its Sponsor, which provides Host Digital with a right of first offer and a right of first refusal on qualifying data center projects held by its Sponsor. Host Digital expects to acquire from the Sponsor a second data center facility, also located in northeast Oklahoma ("Site II"). The Sponsor has signed a 12-year take-or-pay lease for Site II, with a publicly traded AI cloud provider, for approximately 20 MW of gross / 16 MW of critical IT load, representing approximately $391 million in base-term rent, or approximately $819 million over a total 22-year term assuming all renewal options are exercised, which is expected to be supported by a lease backstop from an investment-grade publicly listed U.S.-based global technology company.”
TRANSACTION AND LEASE HIGHLIGHTS
“Merger completed: Host Digital completed its merger with Host Digital Infrastructure LLC on September 17, 2026. Following the Closing of the priced offering, HOST's outstanding share count is 48,088,414, which implies a market capitalization of $384,947,754.07 as of market close on September 21, 2026.”
“Trading as HOST: Shares began trading on the NYSE American under the ticker symbol "HOST" on Friday, September 18, 2026.”
“Site I: With the closing of the merger, Site I is now owned by Host Digital. The fully executed 15-year, take-or-pay lease is for 55 MW gross / 43 MW of critical IT load, representing approximately $1.25 billion in base-term contracted revenue, or approximately $3.2 billion over a 30-year total term if all renewal options are exercised, and a Year 1 contracted revenue of $67 million, with delivery expected in the first quarter of 2027. The terms also include a 3.0% annual rent escalator with the tenant bearing operating expenses. The lease is expected to be supported by a lease backstop from an investment-grade publicly listed U.S.-based global technology company.”
“Site II: Host Digital expects to acquire from the Sponsor a second data center facility, also located in northeast Oklahoma ("Site II"), pursuant to its rights under the Preferential Rights Agreement. The Sponsor has signed a 12-year take-or-pay lease with a publicly traded AI cloud provider for approximately 20 MW gross / 16 MW of critical IT load, representing approximately $391 million in base-term rent, or approximately $819 million over a total 22-year term assuming all renewal options are exercised, and Year 1 contracted revenue of $28.3 million. The terms also include a 2.5% annual rent escalator with the tenant bearing operating expenses. The lease is expected to be supported by a lease backstop from a different investment-grade publicly listed U.S.-based global technology company. The contribution of Site II remains subject to negotiation and the execution of definitive agreements.[1]”
“Sponsor relationship: Under the Preferential Rights Agreement, Sponsor provided the Company with a 24-month exclusive right of first offer and right of first refusal on qualifying data center assets from the Sponsor's pipeline, which includes an additional 450 MW of RightScaled data center assets with the potential ability to be delivered to tenants in 2027, as well as longer-term, "land and expand" growth from both grid and behind-the-meter expansions at existing sites, followed by the potential development of larger scale projects which may potentially be delivered to tenants in 2028 and beyond.”
“Differentiated approach: Host Digital expects to target a combination of RightScaled, 20-100 MW grid-powered assets with existing or near-term electricity in place, which it expects to be able to deliver to tenants in 2026, 2027 and 2028, and which can potentially be expanded with additional utility capacity and behind-the-meter private grid generation, along with larger scale opportunities which may potentially be delivered in 2028 and beyond. This "barbell" approach aims to accelerate revenue by emphasizing speed to power, while maximizing opportunities for scale over time. The Company focuses on rapidly delivering "turnkey" facilities, which go beyond a typical powered shell to meet tenants, chipmakers and end users where they are, in what the Company considers a "sweet spot" of development cost and lease rates.”
Here are some of the company’s comments from this press release:
"Host Digital is entering the public markets with the three things that matter most in AI infrastructure today: access to power, contracted demand, and a model we can repeat," said Shawn Matthews, Chairman of Host Digital. "At our initial site, we have 43 MW of critical IT load committed under a long-term lease. We now have started negotiations to acquire a second energized and leased facility. If we complete that acquisition, Host Digital expects to have approximately 59.3 MW of total contracted critical IT load and an aggregate of $1.64 billion in base-term contracted revenue across the two sites. Our listing on the New York Stock Exchange American gives us a public-markets platform to continue building that portfolio with discipline."
Last week, the company announced:
“Host Digital Letter to Shareholders” “on behalf of its CEO Harmol Samra”:
Here are some of the highlights from this press release:
“At Host, we want to build a diversified portfolio of what we call RightScaled data centers, starting with 20 to 100 megawatts of grid power and room to expand where the site allows. Our team has spent the past two years looking for sites with power flowing today or a clear path to power in the near term, so we can work toward delivery in months, not years.”
“Our Sponsor already has four additional sites in its pipeline with more than 450 megawatts of potential gross power capacity, which could be delivered to tenants by the end of 2027. We're also working on larger projects for 2028 and continuing to look for opportunities across the country to support growth well beyond that.”
“AI and other computing workloads need uninterruptible electricity, cooling, and buildings designed to keep equipment running. Finding a suitable property is only part of the job. For a new site without power, the wait for a grid connection is measured in years, and capital alone won't shorten it.”
Making the idea real at Site I
“Our first project in northeast Oklahoma is at an energized site with an existing industrial building and a utility-owned electrical substation. We've acquired the electrical service agreements for the site. The customer lease covers 55 megawatts of gross capacity, the total power available at the site. After allowing for cooling and the facility's other systems, this customer's design provides 43 megawatts of critical IT capacity, the power available for its computing equipment.
In August, we signed a 15-year lease with approximately $1.25 billion of contracted base-term rent, including 3% annual increases. The lease is take-or-pay, which means the customer pays for the capacity it has reserved, even if it doesn't use all of it. The signed lease gives us a binding customer commitment, with payments beginning once we've delivered the facility as required. Those payments remain subject to the lease's terms and our performance obligations. We also expect an investment-grade lease backstop to support the payments, strengthen the credit behind the rental income, and help attract financing for the project.
Securing a lease with $1.25 billion in contracted rent takes time, experience, and a lot of negotiation. Available power can get a conversation started, but a customer needs confidence in the design, delivery schedule, operating standards, and financial terms. Above all, they need to trust the team responsible for delivering the facility. Working through those requirements can mean revisiting the design, budget, and contract until they fit together. Our team's experience helps us work through the sticking points and keep the deal moving.”
How the business makes money and creates value
“Site I's lease starts with approximately $67 million of contracted rent in its first year and includes 3% annual increases over the 15-year base term. That adds up to approximately $1.25 billion in contracted rent and gives us a long-term customer commitment to build around.
Under the lease, the customer pays the facility's operating expenses, including electricity, in addition to rent. You can think of the cash flow as a waterfall, starting with the customer's rent payments. From that rent, we pay any management and other project costs that Host bears, along with principal and interest on the project loan. The remaining cash flows to Host, where it can support the business.”
“The value of the facility can also extend beyond the initial lease. We would still own a turnkey data center building, and the customer holds renewal options that, if all were exercised, would bring total rent to approximately $3.2 billion over 30 years. That gives us a longer-term opportunity to serve the customer from the same site.”
We believe HOST could be positioned for significant upside.
