## IREN Reports $702.6M Net Loss

## Non-Cash Impairment Charges
The loss included $638.8 million in non-cash impairment charges tied to mining equipment decommissioning.

CoinShares estimates miners hold over $100 billion in AI and HPC backlogs, yet only 550 megawatts of more than 4 gigawatts contracted are currently billing.
## Bitcoin Price Pressure
Bitcoin's price of $58,400 sits below the reported $75,500 cash cost per coin, pressuring margins across the sector.

Core Scientific paid more than $41.9 million to cancel equipment orders, while Keel ceased mining operations entirely on June 29, 2026.
## Facility Buildouts
IREN has completed delivery of Horizon 1, a 50-megawatt liquid-cooled facility, to Microsoft.
