Full Release
NEW YORK, Dec. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IREN Limited (NASDAQ: IREN) (“IREN”) today announced the pricing of a registered direct offering of 39,699,102 ordinary shares at a price of $41.12 per share (the “Offering”) to a limited number of purchasers. The Offering is being made pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering approximate the aggregate cash consideration payable in connection with the Repurchase. In conjunction with any Repurchase of the Existing 2029 Convertible Notes (initial conversion price of $13.64) and Existing 2030 Convertible Notes (initial conversion price of $16.81), the principal amount of debt outstanding under the Existing Convertible Notes will be reduced accordingly and will be extinguished and, accordingly, will no longer be convertible into IREN’s ordinary shares prior to maturity or otherwise. The Offering is expected to close on December 8, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
Concurrently with the pricing of the Offering, IREN entered into one or more separate, privately negotiated transactions with a limited number of holders of IREN’s outstanding 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2030 with an initial conversion price of approximately $16.81 per ordinary share (the “Existing 2030 Convertible Notes”) and 3.50% convertible senior notes due 2029 with an initial conversion price of approximately $13.64 per ordinary share (the “Existing 2029 Convertible Notes” and, together with the Existing 2030 Convertible Notes, the “Existing Convertible Notes”) to repurchase approximately $227.7 million aggregate principal amount of the Existing 2030 Convertible Notes and approximately $316.6 million aggregate principal amount of the Existing 2029 Convertible Notes for an aggregate repurchase price of approximately $1,632.4 million, which approximates the size of the Offering and includes accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Convertible Notes to be repurchased (the “Repurchase”). The terms of each Repurchase depended on a variety of factors, including the market price of IREN’s ordinary shares and the trading price of the Existing Convertible Notes at the time of such Repurchase, and the Repurchase is subject to closing conditions that may not be satisfied. Following the completion of the Offering, IREN may repurchase additional Existing Convertible Notes.
IREN also announced today the pricing of its previously announced private offering of $1 billion aggregate principal amount of 0.25% convertible senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) and $1 billion aggregate principal amount of 1.00% convertible senior notes due 2033 (the “2033 Notes” and, together with the 2032 Notes, the “Convertible Notes”), plus up to an additional $150 million aggregate principal amount of 2032 Notes and up to an additional $150 million aggregate principal amount of 2033 Notes that the initial purchasers of the concurrent offering have the options to purchase from IREN (the “Concurrent Offering”). The Concurrent Offering is expected to close on December 8, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
The proceeds from the Offering will be approximately $1,632.4 million. IREN intends to use the proceeds from the Offering, together with the net proceeds from the Concurrent Offering, if it is consummated, (i) to fund the $174.8 million cost of entering into the capped call transactions that IREN entered into in connection with the pricing of the Convertible Notes, (ii) to repurchase a portion of the Existing Convertible Notes for cash as described above and (iii) for general corporate purposes and working capital. If the initial purchasers of the Concurrent Offering exercise their options to purchase additional Convertible Notes, IREN intends to use a portion of the additional net proceeds to fund the cost of entering into additional capped call transactions in connection with such additional Convertible Notes.
The completion of the Offering is not contingent on the completion of the Concurrent Offering or the Repurchase, and the completion of the Concurrent Offering is not contingent on the completion of the Offering or the Repurchase.
Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are acting as placement agents for the Offering.
