Applied Digital reported Q2 FY25 earnings after market hours yesterday. Going into this, I had a bullish view. But the lack of developments in signing a customer activates a key risk. APLD has been unable to close a customer for its 100MW data center in Ellendale for more than a year now. This reduces my confidence in management's execution ability. I note that Q2 FY25 EBIT profitability is skewed upward due to changes in D&A useful life assumptions.

Applied Digital's second-quarter fiscal 2025 results are likely to benefit from an expanding data center capacity. However, stretched valuation is a concern.
Applied Digital is transitioning from operating data centers for crypto mining customers to building and operating data centers for larger hyperscaler companies. There is significant growth potential ahead as they are close to signing a 100MW lease deal with a hyperscaler and seeing high interest for an additional 300MW of capacity. The ~$880 million annual revenue potential if the 400MW of capacity gets leased out is far from being priced in by consensus revenue estimates.
