The bull case
- +IREN has one of the better balance sheets among riskier AI stocks, with about $7.6 billion in cash and short-term investments versus over $7.8 billion in long-term debt.
- +Favorable supply-demand dynamics are boosting contract prices, with 3-year contract prices up about 125% since November 2025, and customer prepayments are funding 45-55% of GPU capex.
- +A DCF using a 16.2% weighted average cost of capital yields a fair value of about $46 per share, roughly 50% above the current price of $30.56.
- +He applies a wider 10-20% margin of safety due to uncertainty in long-term free cash flow estimates, but the stock still appears undervalued.
- +IREN is down about 9% alongside the neocloud selloff, which he views as an opportunity to add to the space.
- +IREN has over 5 gigawatts of secured power for AI data centers, the most for its size.
- +Nvidia has a 5-year $3.4 billion cloud contract and warrants to buy 30 million shares at $70, implying 100% upside from $35.
- +Microsoft signed a 5-year $9.7 billion deal and prepaid 20% upfront; IREN's $4 billion run rate target is fully under contract.
