I'm surprised that ~$10 million dollars of GPUs, @ $40k per H100 and excluding operational costs like the energy bill, only rents for $455k per month. Sounds like a really tough business since the amount of time required to recoup the costs of ownership (~21 months) seems like a really long time. A new generation or two of chips will have hit the market in that time, depreciating the recurring rental income. Leads me to wonder how much if any profit can be made renting GPUs.
