CoreWeave: Focus On Prospects, Not Growing Pains

Update - April 9, 2026

CoreWeave could have a backlog approaching $90 billion now after signing a new $21 billion deal with Meta Platforms. The neocloud guided to Q1'26 revenue of up to $2 billion, so the backlog starting point is $85 billion plus what additional unannounced deals contribute to the backlog. 

-CoreWeave shares rose 7% in premarket trading Thursday after the company announced an expanded long-term agreement with Meta Platforms (META) to provide AI cloud capacity through December 2032, valued at about $21B.

-The deal builds on an existing partnership and will support Meta’s AI development, with the company using CoreWeave’s platform to scale inference workloads.

-The two firms first partnered last year, when Meta committed up to $14.2B through 2031, with an option to expand the agreement through 2032.

CoreWeave, Inc. (CRWVjust reported a quarter highlighting the strong prospects of the business, yet the market sold off the stock. The AI cloud provider is still running into growing pains, and the market isn't very accommodating these days. My investment thesis remains ultra bullish on the stock on this dip below $80, a valuation nearly equal to the forecasted FY27 ARR exit rate.
