Company: TeraWulf

How we checked this
Checked on October 2, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The presentation does give 9/30/2026 as the lease commencement date, but only as an assumption in its projection model, not as a contractually scheduled date. Calling it 'scheduled' goes beyond what this document says.
Confirmed in the source:
- The Flash Compute investor presentation (December 17, 2025) lists September 30, 2026 as the data center lease commencement date in its financial model.
- The data center lease referred to is Flash Compute's DC Lease, which the document links to the Abernathy, Texas HPC campus.
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- The document does not establish that September 30, 2026 is a firm, scheduled commencement date; it presents the date only as one of its "Key Model Assumptions" for illustrative cash-flow projections.
That does not mean it is false — only that this source does not establish it, as of the date above. If we find a source that settles it, we will re-check and update this page.
What we did: Read our cached copy of SEC EDGAR (8-K Ex) (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1083301/000110465925122293/tm2533501d1_ex99d1.htm) in full (12,131 characters, retrieved September 23, 2026) and checked each assertion in the claim against it.
