Goldman Sachs reiterates Iren stock rating on $1.6bn Dell deal

Investing.com - Goldman Sachs reiterated a Neutral rating and $50.00 price target on Iren Ltd. (NASDAQ:IREN) following the company’s equipment purchase agreement.

Iren entered into a $1.6 billion purchase agreement on May 26 with Dell for air-cooled Blackwell based systems as part of its previously announced five-year $3.4 billion AI cloud contract with NVIDIA. The chip giant, valued at $5.2 trillion, remains undervalued according to InvestingPro analysis and appears on the platform’s most undervalued stocks list, with revenue surging 71% over the last twelve months. The Blackwell systems will be deployed across Iren’s existing sites at the company’s Childress, Texas campus with commissioning targeted for early 2027.

The NVIDIA cloud deal is for 60 MW of capacity, which would result in approximately 45 MW of critical IT load, assuming a PUE ratio of approximately 1.3. Goldman Sachs estimates Iren is acquiring approximately 26,000 B200 GPUs, assuming approximately $500,000 per DGX B200 rack, which is consistent with the disclosed $1.6 billion purchase price.

The calculation is based on 45MW divided by 14kW per DGX B200 rack multiplied by eight GPUs per rack. Goldman Sachs noted this is a lower purchase price than the firm previously expected.

Goldman Sachs analyst Michael Ng maintained the Neutral rating and $50.00 price target on the stock. For deeper insights into IREN and access to comprehensive Pro Research Reports covering 1,400+ US equities, visit InvestingPro.
