Read the 8-K before the press release and net the warrant out of the headline number (about 2% vests on the current commitment, about 1% per additional $3B of contracted value; strike $111.33, the 30-day VWAP). Precedent: AMD's Oct 2025 warrant to OpenAI, 160M shares at a $0.01 strike, full vesting at 6 GW. Same week Opus 5.5 cut prices 20% and GPT-6 Sol halved.
Investors: net dilution out of backlog before the multiple; treat a lab's seven-year commitment as quasi-debt in EV. Founders selling compute: book customer warrants as CAC; founders buying compute: ask for warrants or price resets before multi-year commitments.
Falsifier: within 12 months, three or more new $5B+ compute contracts that include equity to the customer (per 8-K or equivalent filings) verify this call; zero marks it wrong.
