Why One Investor Trimmed CleanSpark Despite a 62% One-Year Gain

On May 14, 2026, Fort Point Capital Partners disclosed in a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing that it sold 400,000 shares of CleanSpark (CLSK +1.33%) in the first quarter, an estimated $4.28 million transaction based on quarterly average pricing.

What happened

According to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission dated May 14, 2026, Fort Point Capital Partners reduced its stake in CleanSpark by 400,000 shares during the first quarter. The estimated transaction value is $4.28 million, calculated using the average unadjusted closing price for the quarter.

What this transaction means for investors

With this sale, it's important to note that Fort Point still held a position after the quarter, and the trim came during a period when CleanSpark shares had pulled back roughly 18%, long before the stock's nearly 90% rebound since March 31.

The bigger story is that CleanSpark is increasingly trying to become more than a bitcoin miner. Earlier this month, CEO Matt Schultz said the company is accelerating its "digital infrastructure evolution" through land, power, financing, and construction initiatives, with a focus on commercializing assets that could support AI and high-performance computing workloads.

Meanwhile, the latest results were mixed. Quarterly revenue fell 25% year over year to $136.4 million, while the company posted a net loss of $378.3 million. However, CleanSpark ended March with $260 million in cash, $925 million in bitcoin holdings, and total current assets of $1.1 billion. Management also highlighted that megawatts under contract doubled year over year and average monthly hashrate increased 18%.

For long-term investors, the key question is whether CleanSpark can successfully monetize its growing power and infrastructure footprint beyond bitcoin mining. If the AI data center opportunity develops as management hopes, today's valuation may ultimately depend less on bitcoin prices and more on the company's ability to turn energy assets into durable compute revenue.
