IREN Stock Falls 6% After $875M Convertible Note Announcement

  • IREN stock fell 6% post-market following the announcement of an $875 million convertible debt offering.
  • The offering could reach $1 billion if initial purchasers opt for an additional $125 million.
  • Notes are unsecured, convertible into IREN shares or cash under certain conditions, maturing in July 2031.
  • Proceeds aimed at general operations and capped call transactions to mitigate share dilution and potential cash payments.
  • Potential future shareholder approval sought for share repurchase to settle instruments.
  • Today's decline almost negated gains from new AI cloud contracts linked to Nvidia Blackwell GPU deployments.
  • Despite the drop, IREN shares have surged approximately 1,000% since April due to strong interest in AI infrastructure.
