Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

The sizable financing and high-profile backers (Third Point, Nvidia) signal strong appetite for AI infra, which can lift sentiment and valuations across AI data-center peers, including NSCL. However, the convertible nature could introduce near-term dilution and cap-table effects post-IPO, potentially moderating upside.
