Management is pivoting from a single-anchor tenant approach to a multi-tenant strategy to ensure diversity of demand and maximize the efficiency of the private grid.

The receipt of a 6-gigawatt air permit served as the primary catalyst for converting prospective 'shoppers' into serious buyers at the C-suite level.

Operational progress is heavily front-loaded, with gas and water pipelines installed and an 800-megawatt substation approximately 60% to 70% complete.

Management identifies a critical bottleneck in tenant readiness, noting that Fermi's power generation capabilities are currently outpacing the ability of tenants to deploy mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) infrastructure.

The company is prioritizing investment-grade counterparties to ensure the project-level financing required for multibillion-dollar construction can be secured.

Strategic focus has expanded to include direct engagement with chip makers who are increasingly concerned about securing power to support hardware utility.

Future capital deployment is strictly gated by two milestones: the execution of definitive tenant agreements and the subsequent closing of project-level financing.

Management expects Phase 0 and Phase 1 of Project Matador to require an aggregate capital deployment exceeding $3 billion.

Tenant revenues are projected to commence in 2027, though they will not initially cover full operating capital requirements until the site reaches scale.

The company intends to elect REIT status for the 2025 fiscal year but does not anticipate paying dividends in the near term due to significant non-cash depreciation.

A 200-megawatt tenant must be secured by December 31, 2026, to satisfy the requirements of the existing 99-year ground lease.

The $486 million net loss for 2025 was approximately 91% non-cash, driven by equity incentives, charitable contributions, and fair value adjustments.

Management explicitly warned that if project financing is not secured on favorable terms, the company may be forced to delay investments or surrender collateral to preserve liquidity.

Recent financing includes a $500 million non-recourse turbine warehouse and a $165 million facility for additional Siemens SGT-800 units.

The CEO's family, owning 38% of the company, is seeking an 'accretive' block buyer to satisfy REIT ownership rules following the IPO lockup expiration.

The primary negotiation tension involves tenants wanting to lock in all available power long-term at current prices, while Fermi seeks to maintain tenant diversity.

Management declined to provide specific timing for contract signings to avoid weakening their negotiating position in multibillion-dollar deals.

Fermi has hired specialized personnel from Meta to perform 'reverse due diligence' on potential tenants' ability to execute their own infrastructure on time.

The company is advocating for modular MEP solutions to accelerate the 'speed to token' for tenants, potentially reducing the time to power utilization.

Pricing remains consistent with initial expectations, though Fermi is attempting to bid for higher rates given the scarcity of power generation equipment.

Management noted that some prospective tenants are reallocating to Fermi because other sites have failed to deliver on committed power.
