Key details of the transaction
$2.6 billion convertible senior notes offering (1.00% coupon, 32.5% conversion premium)
Capped call transactions entered into in connection with the notes, which are expected generally to provide a hedge upon conversions up to an initial cap price of $110.30 per share, which represents a 100% premium (as compared to the 32.5% conversion premium under the notes)
The issuance and sale of the notes are scheduled to settle on May 14, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. IREN also granted the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the notes are first issued, up to an additional $400 million principal amount of notes
Additional transaction details
The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of IREN and will accrue interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2026. The notes will mature on December 1, 2033, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before September 1, 2033, noteholders will have the right to convert their notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after September 1, 2033, noteholders may convert their notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. IREN will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, its ordinary shares or a combination of cash and its ordinary shares, at its election. The initial conversion rate is 13.6848 ordinary shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $73.07 per ordinary share. The initial conversion price represents a premium of approximately 32.5% over the last reported sale price of $55.15 per share of IREN's ordinary shares on May 11, 2026. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events.
The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at IREN's option, on or after June 6, 2030 and on or before the 30th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of IREN's ordinary shares exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
If a "fundamental change" (as defined in the indenture for the notes) occurs, then, subject to a limited exception, noteholders may require IREN to repurchase their notes for cash. The repurchase price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.
Use of proceeds
IREN estimates that the net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $2.57 billion (or approximately $2.96 billion if the initial purchasers fully exercise their option to purchase additional notes), after deducting the initial purchasers' discounts and commissions and IREN's estimated offering expenses.
IREN intends to use approximately $174.5 million of the net proceeds to fund the cost of entering into ...
