Item 8.01. Other Events.

On March 4, 2026, Applied Digital Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that APLD ComputeCo 2 LLC, its subsidiary, priced its offering of $2.15 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior secured notes due 2031 (the “Offering”) at an issue price of 98%. The Offering is expected to close on or around March 10, 2026, subject to market and other conditions.

The notes will only be issued and sold to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.

APLD ComputeCo 2 LLC intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund the development and construction of 200 megawatts of critical IT load at Polaris Forge 2, its AI Factory campus in Harwood, North Dakota currently leased to Oracle, as well as the “Project Accounts” (including but not limited to the Debt Service Reserve Account) in accordance with the provisions of the indenture governing the notes, and to pay related fees and expenses, including transaction expenses.

A copy of the press release announcing the pricing of the Offering is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K about future expectations, plans, and prospects, as well as any other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts, may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the completion, size and timing of the Offering, the anticipated use of any proceeds from the Offering, the terms of the notes and anticipated future events. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including uncertainties related to market conditions and the completion of the Offering on the anticipated terms or at all, the other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 30, 2025 and the risks described in other filings that the Company may make from time to time with the SEC. Any forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K speak only as of the date hereof, and the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable law.
