$IREN - Complete A-Z investment case
In this post Iโll cover why I expect this hyper-growth stock to crack $150 over the next 18 monthsโrepresenting a gain of 1150% from its current price of $12 ๐
I went โAll-Inโ this stock, and for good reasonโฆ.

@marksotoges@badgernewman Yes SW & OK will be liquid-cooled. Pretty much any new build going forward will
be liquid-cooled. But $IREN still got 240 MW of air cooled capacity left at Childress, that yet have to be contracted.
Most $IREN investors don't yet grasp how profitable the 60 MW $NVDA deal actually is.
Despite being just 20% of the MW capacity, it yields more cumulative net income than the 300 MW $MSFT agreement.
This is a direct result of $IREN locking in stronger terms.
Now that $IREN is quickly establishing itself as one of the premier cloud providers with the deepest pipeline in the industry, I expect future deals to land at similar profit margins.
Considering the price action since last earnings, the market clearly hasn't priced that in yet.
@badgernewman Weโll have to see. But yes, that might be the case due to higher data center depreciation weighing on margins. That could be offset by even higher revs, but weโll have to wait for the terms.
@latentvectors7 A combination of meaningfully higher revenue per GPU, substantially lower data center depreciation & air-cooling having better PUE (leading to more GPUs per gross MW).
I covered the discrepancy between the two deals in more depth in my recent deep dive on Substack.
While the warrants arenโt directly tied to this 60 MW deal, I get where you are coming from.
Much of this profitability increase comes from the 30% revenue per GPU increase. Imo, that increase is mostly attributed to cloud economics in generally improving amidst this compute shortage. Then you got to factor in that the msft deal was IRENโs first large-scale cloud deal which certainly meant their negotiating leverage must have been lower than ot is today.
So, as a whole, I donโt think $NVDA is giving $IREN a free lunch here. But we canโt know for sure until we see the economics of the next deal.
Model Release: AI Cloud & Colocation
We just released the in-house developed infrastructure model behind our $IREN work.
It lets you replicate any AI cloud or colocation lease and gives you exceptional insights into the economics of your favorite AI/HPC stock.
We have been developing and refining this model for well over 6 months, and we genuinely believe it is one of the most powerful tools out there for breaking down the economics of any AI cloud or colocation deal.
In this thread I'll walk you through everything there is to know. ๐งต
