Gate News message, April 24 — Applied Digital signed a 15-year lease agreement worth $7.5 billion with a major U.S.-based hyperscaler for 300 megawatts of capacity at its Delta Forge 1 site in the southern United States, the company announced on April 23.
The deal marks Applied Digital’s second U.S. investment-grade hyperscale tenant and lifts total contracted lease revenue to more than $23 billion. The company also expects up to $600 million in financing, including a $300 million senior secured bridge facility for its Polaris Forge 1 campus and up to $300 million in a revolving credit facility for development and working capital.
Applied Digital’s shares rose more than 12% in early trading. Prior to this agreement, the company’s $16 billion in contracted revenue came from only two customers, with one cloud provider accounting for 69% of that total. The new lease broadens its customer base as hyperscalers continue locking in long-term data center capacity amid surging AI demand.

TSMC’s contract terms go into effect today, and the 2330 stock price hits a new high of 2180 yuan
The Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) announced that it will loosen the holding limit for funds and actively managed ETFs in a single stock, raising the cap from 10% to 25%. Because TSMC accounts for roughly 44.3% of Taiwan’s stock market weight, it is dubbed the “TSMC clause.” The new rules take effect today, affecting about NT$1.27 trillion in funds, giving funds more room to participate in TSMC. The actual deployment of funds still depends on each firm’s contract amendments and management judgment. Driven by the positive news, TSMC’s stock price hit a new high again, rising to 2,180 yuan.
