The new 20\u2011year Anthropic lease, with about US$19.00 billions in contracted revenue backed by investment\u2011grade credit, materially tilts the story toward recurring, high\u2011performance computing income and away from more volatile digital asset exposure. In the near term, the key catalysts shift to execution milestones: securing and building out the roughly 401 MW at Hawesville on time and budget, closing the US$530 million Abernathy sale, and managing dilution after recent equity raises. At the same time, the biggest risks now look less about pure bitcoin prices and more about construction, funding and delivering on very large AI commitments without further eroding an already weak balance sheet.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\"> However, the size of these AI commitments introduces new execution and funding risks that investors should be aware of.<a href=\"https:\/\/simplywall.st\/company\/id\/c92b34c2-ec48-46e0-be1b-ad3f23b0bb00\/valuation?utm_medium=finance_user&amp;utm_campaign=integrated-pitch&amp;utm_source=yahoo&amp;blueprint=4650890\" data-ylk=\"slk:The%20analysis%20detailed%20in%20our%20TeraWulf%20valuation%20report;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;source:content-canvas%20default\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;The analysis detailed in our TeraWulf valuation report&quot;,&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yTrafficOrigin&quot;:&quot;content-canvas default&quot;}\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">The analysis detailed in our TeraWulf valuation report<\/a> hints at an inflated share price compared to its estimated value.  <\/p>\n<p>        Exploring Other Perspectives      <a href=\"https:\/\/simplywall.st\/company\/id\/c92b34c2-ec48-46e0-be1b-ad3f23b0bb00?utm_medium=finance_user&amp;utm_campaign=infographic&amp;utm_source=yahoo&amp;blueprint=4650890\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/ywAAAAAAQABAAACAUwAOw==\" alt=\"WULF 1-Year Stock Price Chart\" height=\"664\" width=\"960\" class=\"yf-lglytj loader\"\/><\/a> WULF 1-Year Stock Price Chart           <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Five Simply Wall St Community fair value estimates span roughly US$18 to US$57.04, reflecting wide dispersion in expectations.
