IREN secures $363 million equipment financing for AI compute infrastructure

IREN Limited closed a $363 million equipment financing transaction on October 28, 2026. The loan was arranged by Wingspire Equipment Finance and funded by a syndicate of six lenders led by Eldridge Capital Management and Silver Point Capital. The facility refinances deployed GPU servers and networking gear and is secured by the equipment and multi‑year customer contracts.

The company says the financing returns a significant portion of the equipment’s original cost, improving liquidity without issuing new equity. Analysts note that the deal reflects strong credit market appetite for AI‑related collateral.
