time to time in its other filings with the SEC, accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and the Investor Relations section of IREN's website at https:// investors.iren.com. These and other important factors could cause actual
results to differ materially by the forward-looking statements made in this investor update. Any forward-looking statement that IREN makes in this investor update speaks only as of the date of such statement. Except as required by law, IREN
disclaims any obligation to update or revise, or to publicly announce any update or revision to, any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Special Note Regarding non-GAAP
Measures This investor update refers to certain measures that are not recognized under GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. IREN uses non-GAAP measures including "Estimated Project EBITDA margin" (as defined
below) as additional information to complement GAAP measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s operations from management’s perspective. "Estimated Project EBITDA margin" represents expected earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation, and amortization at the project level, divided by estimated project revenue. It reflects estimated operating profitability after power, repairs and maintenance, and other direct operating costs, but before corporate
overhead, financing costs, and non-cash items. No reconciliation of the Estimated Project EBITDA Margin is included in this presentation because Estimated Project EBITDA Margin is forward looking, we are unable to quantify certain amounts
that would be required to be included in the comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts, and we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors. 2
