Phoenix Group PLC (ADX: PHX), an IHC portfolio company and a global leader in blockchain and digital asset infrastructure, has been featured in a new research report from H.C. Wainwright & Co. Independent equity analysts at H.C. Wainwright & Co. have assigned Phoenix Group a Buy rating and AED 3.00 price target, recognizing its evolution beyond mining into high-growth AI and HPC infrastructure. Based on the August 4, 2025, closing price of AED 1.48, the report states an enormous upside potential in excess of 102% for the shares. The positive assessment is underpinned by Phoenix Group's strategic expansion and its forward-looking ambitions in high-growth technology sectors. The report, titled 'Re-Energized Sites and AI/HPC Feasibility Prime Upside; Reit. Buy,' underscores Phoenix Group's strong position for meaningful growth in both the near and long term.

It also notes the company's ability to attract ongoing capital support amid broader industry trends that favour advanced connectivity and compute infrastructure. With new sites expected to come online, Phoenix is well-positioned to meet growing demand for AI workloads and unlock additional revenue streams. Central to this momentum is Phoenix's established partnership with IHC (IHC: ADX), the Abu Dhabi-based diversified investment firm. As a valued IHC portfolio company, Phoenix leverages shared expertise and resources to scale operations and execute on innovative projects, bolstering its resilience in a dynamic market.
