3 Key Points

  • What happened

    IREN closed at $59.96 on June 18, 2026, up 511.84% over the past year and 58.75% year to date. The company signed a five-year, $3.4 billion(約5400億円) AI Cloud contract with NVIDIA, a $9.7 billion(約1.6兆円) Microsoft AI Cloud deal, and a $1.6 billion(約2600億円) Dell agreement (signed May 26), plus acquired Spanish developer Ingenostrum on June 16, adding roughly 490 MW of European capacity.

  • Why it matters

    Despite reporting a $247.8 million(約400億円) net loss in Q3 FY2026 (driven by non-cash impairments on retired mining hardware), management is targeting $3.7 billion(約5900億円) in annual recurring revenue by end of calendar 2026, with $3.1 billion(約5000億円) already contracted—meaning roughly 84% of the 2026 ARR target is locked in. This contracted revenue base reduces the operational risk around demand, shifting focus to execution and timing.

  • What to watch

    24/7 Wall St. has set a $114.86 price target, implying 91.55% upside with 90% confidence. However, analysts have flagged a potential $21 billion(約3.4兆円) funding gap to fully execute the global build-out, and customer concentration with Microsoft and NVIDIA poses a risk. Regulatory or grid-connection delays in Texas, Spain, or Australia could push projections lower.
