TeraWulf (WULF) Secures Kentucky Power Approval, Is The Stock Still Undervalued?

TeraWulf (WULF) stock is in focus after Kentucky regulators approved a Retail Electric Service Agreement for up to 482 megawatts at the company’s Justified Data Campus, supporting its expanded digital infrastructure ambitions.

Even with the Kentucky approval highlighting TeraWulf’s bigger data center ambitions, the stock has been under pressure in recent months, with the share price declining 14.33% over the past 30 days and 42.88% over 90 days. Yet the year-to-date share price return is 18.76% and the 1-year total shareholder return is 60.11%, while the 3-year total shareholder return is very large at about 7x. This suggests long-term momentum has been strong even as shorter-term sentiment has cooled around the latest news and management share sales.

So with TeraWulf stock pulling back sharply even as it secures massive Kentucky power capacity and fresh analyst support, does the current price still offer a favourable entry on a risk reward basis, or has the easy upside already been taken?

Most Popular Narrative: 60.1% Undervalued

The most followed narrative currently pegs TeraWulf’s fair value at $37.94, well above the last close at $15.13, and anchors that view in long duration, contracted AI compute demand.

Long-term partnerships and investments from marquee players (Google's $1.8B lease backstop and equity stake) signal institutional validation, enhance creditworthiness, and are likely to lower WULF's future cost of capital, directly supporting margin expansion and accelerated infrastructure growth.

Another View on TeraWulf’s Valuation

The first narrative framed TeraWulf as about 60.1% undervalued against a fair value of $37.94 per share. Yet on a price-to-sales (P/S) basis, the stock looks expensive. At 45.7x sales, it trades well above the US Software industry at 4x, peers at 19.9x, and a fair ratio of 19.6x.

This much higher P/S multiple suggests less margin for error if growth, margins, or contract terms fall short of expectations. When weighing TeraWulf against other high growth infrastructure stocks, investors may compare both the long-dated valuation narrative and the current sales multiple to form a view.
