IREN Adds Multi-Year AI Cloud Contracts for 11,000 GPUs, Launches $875 Million Convertible Offering

The financing underscores the capital required to scale IREN's AI-cloud buildout to meet signed demand.

Overview

  • IREN says contracts now cover roughly 11,000 of its planned 23,000 GPUs, representing about $225 million in annualized AI Cloud revenue expected to be in operation by the end of 2025.
  • The company reiterates a target of more than $500 million in annualized AI Cloud run-rate revenue by the end of Q1 2026 from GPUs operating or on order.
  • New Blackwell GPU agreements are typically two-year terms at pricing the company says supports roughly a two-year revenue payback.
  • Capacity plans include room for more than 100,000 GPUs across British Columbia and Texas sites, supported by 2,910 MW of secured grid-connected power and land.
  • Shares hit fresh record highs earlier this week before slipping about 6% after-hours on the convertible note announcement, as analyst upgrades contrasted with valuation cautions.
