Allens has advised IREN Limited on the Australian law aspects of its US$1 billion offering of convertible senior notes. 

IREN, an Australian incorporated and NASDAQ-listed corporation, is a leading owner and operator of next-generation data centres powered by 100% renewable energy. Its data centres across the US and Canada are purpose built for power-dense computing applications and today support a combination of AI and Bitcoin mining workloads.  

This is IREN’s third convertible notes offering, following its US$440 million issuance in December 2024 and US$550 million issuance in June 2025, on which Allens also advised.

'This transaction had a number of notable features, including a 0.0% coupon and a 42.5% conversion premium, an over-allocation option of $125 million (which was exercised), and capped call transactions which were designed to provide a hedge upon conversion,' said lead partner Julian Donnan

'We were delighted to be able to support IREN on the next stage of its funding and growth plans.' 

Allens deployed a national team to advise on all aspects of the offering, drawing on expertise in equity capital markets, debt capital markets, derivatives and tax.
