What is still unknown

The filings do not give the monthly payment or the power price. They also do not give the size of the credit support Applied Digital signed. They say only that payments are fixed and based on capacity. [C46] Part II, Item 5, Other InformationOn October 4, 2026, the Company entered into a Power Purchase Agreement and a related credit support agreement with Base Electron for the purchase of capacity and energy from an approximately 1,200 MW natural gas-fired generation facility to be developed by Base Electron in Center, North Dakota, which is intended to provide dedicated generation for the Company's Polaris Forge 3 campus.

Our price data has no close after the October 7 results, so the market's verdict is not yet measured. The last close we have is about $25.37 on October 6.
