Riot Platforms stock (ISIN US7672921050) was last at USD 19.32 on Nasdaq on October 5, 2026, down 2.08 percent. The company repaid a USD 200 million Coinbase credit facility on September 21, 2026, releasing bitcoin, USDC and cash pledged as collateral, according to StockTitan. The combination leaves RIOT with a cleaner secured-debt profile but also removes access to that lending facility.

USD 200 million facility ends

The filing covered a secured term loan with aggregate principal of up to USD 200 million. Riot paid the outstanding principal and accrued interest through September 21, 2026, and incurred no early termination fee or penalty, StockTitan reports from the Form 8-K.

For the operating picture, Riot's second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 14 percent year over year to USD 174.24 million. The quarter still produced a net loss of USD 237.17 million, according to Yahoo Finance.

Revenue grows while losses persist

The revenue increase gives the data-center strategy a measurable operating base, but the loss shows that higher sales have not yet translated into positive earnings. Riot describes itself as a digital-infrastructure company spanning large-scale data centers and Bitcoin mining applications, with engineering and fabrication capabilities in Texas, Kentucky, Denver and Houston, according to Riot Platforms.

That mix leaves the stock sensitive to two different operating levers: Bitcoin economics and the pace at which power capacity becomes revenue-generating data-center infrastructure. The September debt repayment improves collateral flexibility, while the second-quarter loss keeps profitability central to the investment debate.

Analyst target remains above price

Yahoo Finance lists a September 29, 2026 action from B. Riley Securities that maintained a Buy rating and raised the price target from USD 28 to USD 33. The same page lists an average analyst target of USD 32.36 and a high target of USD 45.

Riot Platforms has a 52-week range of USD 11.50 to USD 30.32, placing the October 5 price below the yearly high. Market capitalization stood at USD 7.3 billion, while trading volume reached 13,014,992 shares on October 5, 2026.

RIOT stock trades below yearly high

RIOT stock was last at USD 19.32 on Nasdaq on October 5, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, with a daily change of negative 2.08 percent. The next valuation checkpoint is whether revenue growth and released collateral can support the shift toward data-center infrastructure while the company works through its current losses.
