IREN Reports Q1 FY27 Results
AI Cloud growth accompanied a narrower quarterly loss, but the contracted revenue ramp moved beyond the previous year-end target.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
IREN (NASDAQ: IREN) reported fiscal first-quarter revenue of $228 million, driven by growth in its AI Cloud business. Revenue rose 66% sequentially in the quarter ended September 30, 2026. AI Cloud revenue increased 182% to $200 million, while Bitcoin Mining revenue fell to $28 million from $67 million. The net loss narrowed to $263 million from $684 million.
Revenue backlog increased 22% to $20.3 billion. IREN says its fully contracted, funded target of more than $4 billion in annualized run-rate revenue is now targeted for January 2027, potentially extending through February, versus year-end 2026 previously. After quarter-end, a five-year contract included customer prepayments covering 90% of associated GPU capital spending. Remaining planned FY27 capital spending is $15 billion, including $6 billion of targeted financing and other funding subject to market conditions.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Assumptions and Notes
- Total AI Cloud Revenue comprises AI Cloud Services Revenue of
$135m and AI Cloud Lease Revenue of$65m (prior quarter:$71m and nil, respectively), per our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. - Adjusted EBITDA and Total segment gross profit are non-GAAP financial measures. AI Cloud segment gross margin is AI Cloud segment gross profit (Total AI Cloud revenue less AI Cloud cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization and before site-level costs) divided by Total AI Cloud revenue. Refer to the reconciliations at the end of this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
- Revenue backlog includes remaining performance obligations plus remaining lease arrangements plus other amounts we estimate may be recognized as revenue in future periods under committed customer contracts, in each case, subject to the satisfaction of delivery and availability of service requirements. Investment-grade share is based on the credit ratings of counterparties or their guarantors as of September 30, 2026.
- Annualized-run-rate revenue (“ARR”) is calculated as GPU/hour pricing for commissioned GPUs under contract as of the relevant date multiplied by 8,760 hours per year and includes annualized revenue for storage and ancillaries. More than
$4 billion of ARR is targeted to be operational by January 31, 2027, and may extend to the end of February 2027, based on internal company assumptions regarding utilization and pricing, with revenue expected to ramp upon, and being subject to, commissioning, testing and customer acceptance in the months following each data center’s delivery. ARR is not derived from or an adjustment to GAAP revenue, and excludes GAAP recognition and measurement effects. ARR is an operating metric, not a U.S. GAAP measure, and differs from, and is not a substitute for, GAAP revenue; recognized revenue may be materially lower. - Cash and committed GPU financing and prepayments comprises cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, undrawn committed GPU financing facilities and contracted customer prepayments not yet received, as of September 30, 2026. “Fully funded” means these sources cover the remaining capex from September 30, 2026, including data centers and GPUs, for the 0.3GW (IT) program that supports the more than
$4 billion ARR target, subject to satisfaction of the conditions to funding under committed financing facilities, including conditions to the release of escrowed proceeds and applicable availability periods. - Estimated average annual revenue per MW (IT) for 3- and 5-year contracts signed during Q1 FY27 and Q4 FY26 based on internal assumptions on power consumption for each contracted deployment, weighted by ARR.
- Reflects contracts signed after Q1 FY27. Revenue per IT-MW is estimated annual revenue per MW (IT). Customer prepayment coverage reflects customer prepayments as a proportion of associated estimated GPU capex for the five-year contract. Customer prepayments represent amounts contractually payable by customers in advance of service delivery, expressed as a percentage of the estimated capital expenditure attributable to the associated deployments. Prepayment terms vary by contract and there can be no assurance that future contracts will include prepayments or similar terms. GPU capex excludes provincial sales tax and goods and services tax. H100 pricing increase is relative to pricing under the prior H100 contract at Prince George.
- Includes land secured in freehold and under option, as of October 31, 2026.
- >35GW development pipeline represents the potential gross power capacity, as of November 5, 2026, of projects at various stages of development prior to execution of grid connection agreements, letters of agreement or equivalents. These projects are speculative, and we do not currently expect a significant portion of them to result in secured power. There can be no assurance that any project will proceed or that the indicated capacity will ultimately be secured or developed.
- Data center assets comprise buildings, construction in progress and land, net of depreciation, as of September 30, 2026.
- Remaining capex is from September 30, 2026 and includes data centers and GPUs.
- Future capacity targets include further capacity across the platform’s secured power and development pipeline, including the 0.8GW of data center capacity by the end of calendar 2027, which may require additional capex in FY27.

the amount and terms of any future financing or grant of security, or any refinancing, restructuring or modification to the terms of any future financing or grant of security, which could require us to comply with onerous covenants or restrictions or guarantees, and our ability to service our debt obligations; our ability to successfully execute on our growth strategies and operating plans, including our ability to continue to develop our existing data center sites, design and deploy direct-to-chip liquid and air cooling systems, provide software, and operate and expand our AI Cloud business; our shorter operating history in new markets and geographies we have entered or may seek to enter, including the market for AI Cloud, the expansion of our capabilities to include software offerings, and our expansion into new geographies for data centers such as Australia and Europe; our ability to remain competitive in highly competitive, dynamic and rapidly evolving industries; development and construction delays, increased costs and cost overruns affecting our data centers and our ability to construct, commission and deliver contracted capacity in accordance with the schedules specified in our customer contracts; delays, increases in costs or reductions in the supply of materials or equipment used in our development or operations (including GPUs and any other hardware required or necessary for any current or future AI Cloud offerings), including as a result of tariffs and duties, being in high demand due to global supply chain constraints and other factors, and our ability to secure additional hardware equipment (including GPUs and any other hardware necessary or required for any current or future AI Cloud offerings), on commercially reasonable terms or at all, any of which may impact the timely delivery of contracted AI Cloud capacity to our customers; price increases imposed by suppliers of certain equipment (including GPUs and any other hardware required for any current or future AI Cloud offerings), including in respect of orders already placed, and our inability in certain cases to pass such increased costs through to our customers under our customer contracts, notwithstanding cost pass-through provisions in certain of our contracts with suppliers; our ability to deliver contracted AI Cloud capacity on schedule, or at all, and to meet service level commitments or other obligations under our contracts, as well as service interruptions or equipment failures, any of which could result in significant payments under relevant customer contracts being reduced or delayed, expose us to service credits, damages or other liability, or give rise to termination rights; our ability to match customer contracts, capital expenditures, power commitments and financing; our ability to appropriately scale our workforce in a sufficiently timely manner to achieve our business objectives and sustain our growth trajectory;

expectations with respect to the useful life and obsolescence of hardware (including GPUs, hardware for Bitcoin mining and any current or future services we offer) and the related impairment charges we may incur upon retirement thereof, which could be material; our ability to, and costs associated with, re-purposing data centers historically used for Bitcoin mining, along with the related impairment charges we may incur upon retirement of existing Bitcoin mining hardware, which could be material; Bitcoin price, Bitcoin global hashrate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations; our ability to secure renewable energy, renewable energy certificates, power capacity, timely grid connections, facilities and sites on commercially reasonable terms or at all; delays and costs associated with, or failure to obtain or complete, permitting approvals, grid connections and other development activities customary for greenfield or brownfield infrastructure projects in various jurisdictions, including (in the case of Texas) as a result of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas’s (“ERCOT”) announced amendments to the approval process for large load interconnection requests and the comprehensive verification and audit of all data centers advancing through ERCOT’s interconnection process ordered by the Governor of Texas, or as a result of community or public interest advocacy; electricity market risks relating to changes in laws, regulations and requirements of market operators, network operators and/or regulatory bodies in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including (in the case of Texas) with respect to interconnection of facilities of large electrical loads to the ERCOT grid (for example, via a process that may batch multiple large load interconnection requests), grid stability, voltage ride-through, frequency ride-through and curtailment obligations; heightened complexity and additional constraints in energy markets, including international energy markets with which we are less familiar, including load ramp requirements by utilities or grid operators which may not align with our planned data center development and commissioning timelines; actions undertaken or inaction by electricity network and market operators, regulators, governments or communities in the regions in which we operate, including such actions that could result in the estimated power availability at secured sites being materially less than initially expected, available too late, delayed, conditioned upon technical or operational requirements, permits, leases, approvals, or not available in each case whether at sustainable cost or at all; our ability to secure connection agreements to access power or water sources and permits or to maintain in good standing the operating and other permits, approvals and/or licenses required for our operations, construction activities and business which could be delayed by regulatory approval processes or political intervention, may not be successful or may be cost-prohibitive; our ability to successfully integrate the businesses and operations of recently acquired Mirantis, Inc. (“Mirantis”), Ingenostrum, S.L. (trading as Nostrum Group) (“Nostrum Group”) and their respective subsidiaries into our business and operations and to achieve the anticipated benefits of such acquisitions; reliability and performance of our infrastructure compared to expectations; whether the secular trends we expect to drive growth in our business materialize to the degree we expect them to, or at all; the timing of commissioning, testing and customer acceptance of our AI Cloud capacity, including as a result of evolving customer technical and service requirements, which affects when we begin to recognize revenue and may result in delay credits or other reductions in payments under our customer contracts; the assumptions underlying our annualized run-rate revenue (“ARR”) targets, including with respect to pricing, utilization, contract duration, prepayment levels and customer credit quality, and our ability to contract the uncontracted capacity in our expansion programs on terms consistent with those assumptions; the availability, timing and terms of customer prepayments and targeted GPU financing, and our ability to satisfy the conditions to funding under our committed financing facilities, including conditions to the release of escrowed proceeds and applicable availability periods; our ability to realize the expected benefits of new data center designs and power-management technologies, including increased compute density within existing site power envelopes, and of our strategic partnership with NVIDIA; the expected useful life of our data center assets; and other important factors discussed under the heading “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 and “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2026, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and the Investor Relations section of IREN’s website at https://investors.iren.com.

Any forward-looking statement that we make in this press release speaks only as of the date of such statement. Except as required by law, we disclaim any obligation to update or revise, or to publicly announce any update or revision to, any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The guidance in this press release is only effective as of November 5, 2026 and will not be updated or affirmed unless and until the Company publicly announces updated or affirmed guidance.

Special Note Regarding Non-GAAP Measures
This press release refers to certain financial measures not recognized under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Total segment gross profit, Net debt and Cash operating expense. These supplemental measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation from, or as substitutes for, the most directly comparable GAAP measures. They may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Definitions of these measures and management uses and limitations are set out below. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are presented at the end of this press release.
Management uses these supplemental measures to evaluate operating performance, plan spending and assess financing. They help investors compare periods and understand the measures management uses. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only. Depreciation, stock-based compensation and other excluded items can be significant and recurring.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding income tax (expense) benefit, finance expense, interest income, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, foreign exchange gain (loss), impairment of assets, certain other non-recurring income, gain (loss) on disposal of property, plant and equipment, unrealized fair value gain (loss) on financial instruments, debt conversion inducement expense, gain (loss) on partial extinguishment of financial liabilities, increase (decrease) in fair value of assets held for sale and certain other expense items. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
Total segment gross profit
Total segment gross profit is the sum of AI Cloud and Bitcoin Mining segment revenue less each segment’s cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization, consistent with Note 3 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. The aggregate is a non-GAAP measure outside the segment footnote. It helps assess segment contribution before depreciation and amortization, corporate and other expenses.
Net debt
Net debt is current and non-current debt at GAAP carrying value, less unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and less current and non-current restricted cash. It excludes operating lease liabilities. It helps assess borrowings net of cash balances. Restricted cash includes amounts held in escrow accounts under our debt financing and letter of credit arrangements and remains subject to contractual limits on withdrawal or use.
Cash operating expense
Cash operating expense is GAAP selling, general and administrative expense and GAAP research and development expense, less stock-based compensation. It helps assess SG&A and R&D before stock-based compensation and is not a measure of actual cash payments. Forward-looking Cash operating expense uses the same definition.
Presentation of Financial Information
Beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2026, the Company changed its rounding convention from presenting amounts rounded to the nearest thousand dollars to the nearest million dollars (unless otherwise noted). As a result, certain amounts may differ from previously reported amounts solely due to rounding, and totals may not equal the sum of individual amounts.

The expected increase in Cash operating expense for Q2 FY27 excludes stock-based compensation. A reconciliation to the expected increase in GAAP SG&A and GAAP R&D is not available without unreasonable efforts because the amount of stock-based compensation in the forecast period cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty. This expense depends on the timing and size of future equity awards, our share price when they are granted, forfeitures and whether performance-based vesting conditions are met, and could be material. Accordingly, the change in GAAP SG&A and GAAP R&D could differ materially from the change in Cash operating expense.
FAQ
AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.
What were IREN’s Q1 FY27 revenue and net loss?
IREN reported $228 million revenue and a $263 million net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. The preceding quarter had $137 million revenue and a $684 million net loss. AI Cloud contributed $200 million of current-quarter revenue.
When does IREN expect to reach more than $4 billion in annualized run-rate revenue?
IREN targets January 31, 2027, with timing potentially extending to the end of February 2027. A customer-requested change and supplier timing moved the target from year-end 2026. Annualized run-rate revenue is an operating metric, not GAAP revenue; revenue depends on commissioning, testing and customer acceptance.
What does IREN’s 86% AI Cloud segment gross margin exclude?
The 86% AI Cloud segment gross margin excludes depreciation and amortization and is calculated before site-level costs. It was in line with the prior quarter. The measure divides AI Cloud revenue less its cost of revenue, with those exclusions, by total AI Cloud revenue.
What sources make up IREN’s $9 billion of cash and committed funding?
The $9 billion comprises cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, undrawn committed GPU financing facilities and contracted customer prepayments not yet received as of September 30, 2026. Funding for the 0.3GW program supporting the revenue run-rate target remains subject to facility conditions, escrow-release requirements and availability periods.
