Overview
- CoreWeave posted a blockbuster Q2 with $2.58 billion in revenue, a surprise on earnings per share, and management raised full‑year 2026 revenue guidance to $12.4–$13.2 billion.
- The firm reports a roughly $104.2 billion contracted backlog with about $25 billion in new commitments, giving multiyear revenue visibility that underpins bullish analyst forecasts.
- Management says active power expanded toward targets and a July SKU repricing lifted average pricing about 25 percent, improving margins and pushing operating cash flow higher.
- Q2 free cash flow was deeply negative at about $5.74 billion, interest expense jumped to roughly $640 million, and total liabilities sit near $72 billion versus about $5 billion in equity, raising financing and leverage concerns.
- Shares have rallied year‑to‑date while trading volatility rose after heavy insider selling and high analyst price targets; the near‑term market watch is on timely power and data‑center delivery, access to capital, and sustained pricing.
