Modest upgrade +3 pp. Apr 8 8-K Ireland Apollo disclosure set a detailed-exhibit precedent. DEF 14A expected Q2 2026 creates disclosure catalyst. Terafab adds new strategic partner complexity. But market is narrowly scoped to NVDA/SoftBank/USG — Apollo and Musk disclosures don't resolve. Historical Intel pattern avoids detailed partner-term disclosure.

Why This Question Matters

Tests compound risk #3 (strategic partner dark matter). NVIDIA/SoftBank/USG warrant terms are undisclosed at analysis date, creating information asymmetry where the worst news has not been seen. YES (exhibit reveals anti-dilution, ratchet, or take-or-pay language) would materially reprice CAPITAL_DEPLOYMENT and GOVERNANCE_ALIGNMENT downward and validate the asymmetric-negative baseline from historical government-backed foundry deals. NO preserves the benign-as-undisclosed assumption underlying the recovery thesis.
