Let’s see how things have shaped up for IREN Limited prior to this announcement.

Factors to Note for IREN’s Q3 Results

IREN’s fiscal third-quarter performance is expected to have benefited from higher bitcoin revenues. In January, February and March, IREN reported monthly revenues of $52 million, $43.9 million and $45.3 million, respectively, from Bitcoin mining. 

However, realisations through Bitcoin pricing are expected to have moderated in the to be reported quarter. Revenues from each Bitcoin mined were $85,012 in March, much lower than $95,570 in February and $99,789 in January. This indicates pressure on topline as well as margins for the upcoming third-quarter fiscal 2025.

Even though IREN saw a decline in electricity costs per Bitcoin mined, the decline in revenue per Bitcoin is expected to hurt the margin in the to-be-reported quarter.

AI Cloud services revenues were $0.8 million in January, $1.2 million in February and $1.6 million in March.
