bare metal GPU rental agreement technical
"announced that it has entered into a bare metal GPU rental agreement (the “Agreement”) with SubQ AI"
Total Contract Value financial
"The 24-month contract carries an expected total contract value (“TCV”) of approximately $19.6 million"
Total contract value is the full dollar amount a company expects to receive from a customer under a contract over its entire life, including recurring charges, one-time fees and any guaranteed add‑ons. Investors use it like a deal’s headline price to gauge the size of future revenue tied to sales, but it can overstate near‑term cash because it bundles multi‑year payments into one number—think of it as the sticker price on a multi‑year subscription.
GPU-as-a-Service technical
"through NeoCloudz, Digi Power X’s GPU-as-a-Service platform, at the Company’s AI data center"
GPU-as-a-Service is a pay-as-you-go model that lets businesses rent powerful graphics processing units (GPUs) over the internet instead of buying the hardware outright. It matters to investors because it lowers upfront costs and speeds time-to-market for companies using AI, data analysis, or 3D rendering—similar to renting a high-performance car for a specific trip rather than owning one—and can make firms more flexible, scalable, and capital-efficient.
Rated 3 standards technical
"the facility is engineered to Rated 3 standards, with redundant utility feeds"
forward-looking information regulatory
"this news release contains “forward-looking information” and “forward-looking statements”"
Forward-looking information are predictions, plans, estimates or expectations about a company’s future performance, results or events, such as sales forecasts, project timelines, or anticipated costs. It matters to investors because these statements guide expectations but rely on assumptions and uncertain factors—like a weather forecast for a business—so investors should treat them as informed guesses rather than guarantees and consider the risks and possible changes behind the numbers.
material change report regulatory
"filed with the Canadian Securities Regulatory Authorities on the System for Electronic Data Analysis and Retrieval + a material change report"
A material change report is a public notice that a company must file and share whenever new information or an event is significant enough to likely influence an investor’s decision. Think of it like an urgent update board that tells shareholders about big shifts—such as major deals, leadership changes, sudden losses, or legal issues—so investors can reassess risk and value with the same facts everyone else has.
