So, what should investors do with IREN stock? Let’s dig deep into its fundamentals to gain some insight.
Growing Power Infrastructure Bodes Well for IREN’s Prospects
IREN Limited is one of the world’s largest and lowest-cost Bitcoin miners, achieving 326% year-over-year hashrate growth in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. IREN Limited achieved its 50 EH/s installed hashrate target in June. 50 EH/s generates roughly $830 million annualized hardware profit. In July, hardware profit jumped 28.7% month over month to $63.3 million. Hardware margin increased 100 basis points in July compared with June.
IREN has solidified its position as an infrastructure powerhouse with a binding 600MW grid connection agreement for its Sweetwater 2 project. This development brings the company's total secured power in West Texas to an impressive 2.75 gigawatts. The strategic selection of West Texas leverages one of the world's largest renewable energy markets, offering scalable, low-cost electricity with multiple high-bandwidth fiber connections and low latency (~6ms to Dallas) – critical factors for AI and cloud workloads.
Securing this additional 600MW further solidifies IREN Limited’s competitive position as a leader in scalable data center infrastructure. The company’s upcoming milestones include Sweetwater 1’s energization in April 2026 and Sweetwater 2 in late 2027, representing significant catalysts for future growth.
Expanding AI Cloud Bodes Well for IREN’s Prospects
IREN operates 660MW of data centers and is expected to expand up to 910 MW in 2025.
The announcement of Horizon 1, a 50MW liquid-cooled data center specifically designed for AI and high-performance computing workloads, represents IREN’s strategic pivot toward higher-value services. This facility will support direct-to-chip liquid cooling and power redundancy with 200kW rack density capabilities, specifically designed to support next-generation NVIDIA (NVDA - Free Report) Blackwell GPUs. Horizon 1 remains on track for fourth-quarter 2025 delivery.
The company bought 2.4k next-generation NVIDIA Blackwell B200 and B300 GPUs that will be installed over the coming months at IREN’s Prince George, BC campus. Combined with the existing 1.9k Hopper GPUs, this expansion increases IREN’s fleet to approximately 4.3k NVIDIA GPUs. Supported by 50MW of dedicated power, Prince George can host more than 20,000 Blackwell GPUs.
IREN Limited has completed the Mackenzie fiber upgrade that enhances the company’s ability to support the continued growth of AI Cloud beyond Prince George.
