Force majeure notice (reported Sep 2026)
Reported Sep 24 2026 (Reuters citing Bloomberg; Reuters could not independently verify): Oracle sent a force majeure notice to the Project Jupiter developer (a Blue Owl unit / STACK Infrastructure) seeking to delay payments if the New Mexico campus fails to come online in 2028 as planned, rather than exiting as main tenant. Pipeline/permitting setbacks cited in coverage. Oracle told Reuters: 'Project Jupiter remains on our planned schedule' and said it is 'reimagining' the power plan. Blue Owl said the notice does not change financial commitments. Reported / sources-familiar; not an Oracle confirmation of the notice itself. ORCL fell ~4% on the report
Reported ~1-year slip / Blue Owl equity (Sep 2026)
Reported (reported): Reuters (sources familiar) said the Project Jupiter program faces about a one-year delay and that Blue Owl has roughly $3B of equity in the project, with lower returns during construction. Oracle FM notice framed as protecting payment timing if 2028 online slips (not exiting tenancy); Oracle: remains on planned schedule / committed; Blue Owl: notice does not change multi-year financial commitments (also in TechCrunch). Cap: sources-familiar delay/equity figures, not Oracle/Blue Owl primary confirmation of the slip. Soft CDS/yield market-color from secondary X skipped
