IREN Reports Q4 Loss Amid Transition to AI Cloud Services and New Financing
IREN reported a fiscal fourth-quarter net loss of 684 million, driven by costs related to retiring bitcoin mining hardware as it transitions to AI cloud services. Revenue fell 27% to 137.2 million, slightly above some estimates but below others. Despite the overall revenue decline, IREN's AI Cloud business grew rapidly, with annual recurring revenue reaching about 1 billion and a target of over 4 billion by December 2026. The company secured 2.8 billion in new financing to support AI chip purchases and signed a multi-year contract with an undisclosed AI lab.
