CoreWeave (CRWV-Q) has been attracting attention due to its potential in the data center and GPU rental market. Experts note that while the company has shown impressive revenue growth projections, from below $13 billion this year to potentially over $40 billion by 2028, substantial concerns about its capacity to convert its backlog into profits persist. The stock has seen significant volatility since its IPO, with a notable drop from its peak and a somewhat contentious debt profile that raises questions about sustainability. Analysts express mixed feelings regarding its valuation, suggesting some see growth potential while others emphasize the need for caution due to risks associated with high leverage and market demand fluctuations. Overall, while many acknowledge the company’s potential and backing from industry giants like NVDA, others recommend waiting for a more favorable entry point as the stock continues to face headwinds.
They ended Q1 with a backlog of under $100 billion. Revenues are expected to jump from below $13 billion this year to $25B in 2027 to over $40B in 2028, by which time EPS is expected at $3.36 and $6.92 in 2029, far better than current losses. The big question: Can they convert their backlog into profits?
Think of them as intelligence farms and data centres. You can get a lot more $$ from renting the GPUs than people had thought, and the assets don't depreciate as quickly as feared. There's just so much demand.
Was contentious when it came out, as it was a race between its interest expense on debt versus revenue generated from renting out compute.
Likes both, prefers NBIS. A bit more responsible with its balance sheet.
A play on data centres. What does data centre growth look like? It was everything to everybody. Now growth is in question as people wonder where's the $$ coming from to build them? His own heart tells him that growth won't be what it was thought. Maine just voted to impose a ban on data centres.
Stock's tired. See his Top Picks.
She prefers the bitcoin miners, as their business model is a bit less risky. Both of these names look pretty attractive here, as H100 and H200 chip prices are still going up. So there's a bit more upside in the short term. Over the cycle, they don't have demand locked in. They're investing a lot of capex, and though demand is there today, the future is uncertain.
CRWV has the backing of NVDA, so it may be a bit better on risk/reward. Both have similar exposure.
CRWV is in a nearly 50% 3-month drawdown and the EV/Sales valuation has reverted to 7X. Revenues are expected to double in 2026. After this drawdown, we think it is starting to look better here and we would be ok with picking away at the name at this stage with the caveat that it remains higher risk and volatile.
