Applied Digital Corp. (APLD)
NasdaqGS · Price as of · Delayed Quote
- Profitability5/20
Losing money ($-174.3M over the last four reported quarters), but the top line is growing fast. Revenue over the last four reported quarters was $337.7M, up 144% from $138.7M the year before. Growth this quick earns partial credit; it still has to turn into profit.
- Insider buying vs selling11/20
Insiders are sellers only: 4 sells worth $3.5M, no open-market buys, across the last 16 Form 4s. Routine executive selling is common, so this is only a mild negative. Separately, 2 new 5%+ stake disclosures (13D/13G) hit in the last 6 months, which is big-money accumulation.
- Dilution and offerings1/15
Share count up 11.5% in a year and 5 offering-related filings. Heavy dilution. One nuance: offerings raise cash that can fund real growth. The score docks the certain near-term dilution; if the spending pays off, it shows up later in the profitability component.

Babcock & Wilcox (BW) is building Applied Digital's power plants. Leopold Aschenbrenner's fund owned both companies.
Situational Awareness LP held 2,027,451 Babcock & Wilcox shares at the end of the second quarter, up 50 percent in three months. B&W's $2.4 billion contract is to build the power plants for Applied Digital's AI campuses, and the fund owned that company too.

An Applied Digital (APLD) director just sold $2.34 million of stock. Four other insiders only looked like they did.
One Applied Digital director genuinely sold on August 4, and his Form 4 confirmed it on August 6: 75,000 shares for $2.34 million, an open-market sale with no 10b5-1 plan behind it. Four other insiders filed the same week and only looked like sellers, because their dispositions were tax withholding on newly vested stock, and all four finished the day owning more of the company.
