(Nasdaq: IPW) ("iPower" or the "Company") today announced that it has signed a non-binding letter of intent with a prospective customer for the proposed lease of dedicated high-performance GPU computer systems. The proposed initial deployment would involve GPU systems with an expected acquisition value of approximately $6 million and an anticipated lease term of approximately 36 months following installation and acceptance, with the potential to expand to approximately $60 million in aggregate contemplated contract value, including the initial phase, following a successful initial deployment. Under the proposed structure, iPower or its designated subsidiary would acquire the GPU systems, retain ownership of the equipment and lease the systems to the prospective customer for exclusive use at a mutually agreed data center. The model is designed to provide customers with access to dedicated AI computing infrastructure while allowing iPower to seek lease revenue from Company-owned hardware assets. “This signed LOI moves our AI hardware leasing strategy from preliminary customer interest to a specific potential transaction,” said Lawrence Tan, Chief Executive Officer of iPower. “The contemplated $6 million initial deployment will provide a meaningful starting point, while the potential expansion demonstrates the scale this model may offer following successful execution.” Mr. Tan continued, “Our proposed business model is straightforward: acquire high-performance GPU systems, retain ownership and lease the equipment to customers that requires dedicated computing capacity. We are now focused on equipment sourcing, financing, data center deployment and negotiating definitive commercial terms.” The LOI follows iPower’s recently announced formation of a dedicated AI subsidiary focused on AI hardware leasing and potential compute resource distribution opportunities. Final equipment specifications, lease payments, payment schedule, credit support, deployment arrangements, operating expenses and other commercial terms remain subject to negotiation. The LOI is non-binding in its entirety, and neither party is obligated to proceed unless definitive agreements are negotiated and executed. There can be no assurance that the initial transaction or any contemplated expansion will be completed or generate revenue or profit. About iPower Inc. iPower Inc.
