IREN Limited - Ordinary Shares (IREN)
Company Research
Source: Seeking Alpha
IREN's moat lies in its ownership of power, infrastructure, and GPUs, enabling faster deployment and higher margins versus competitors reliant on third-party hosts. AI Cloud Services revenue surged to $17.3 million in Q2 2026 with 86% gross contribution, while a $9.7B Microsoft deal and $3.6B GPU financing underpin growth. I rate IREN a Buy for long-term investors, citing strong execution, robust capital runway, and significant upside if GPU deployments and utilization targets are met.
