Disciplined Growth at Scale Drives Record Third Quarter Revenue and Expanding Margins
CoreWeave, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRWV), The Essential Cloud for AIⓇ, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
"This was a breakout quarter for CoreWeave, with revenue increasing by more than $1 billion sequentially and adjusted operating margins reaching double digits a quarter ahead of plan," said Michael Intrator, co-founder, chairman and chief executive officer of CoreWeave. "Our growth is supported by multiple sources of funding, including financing backed by customer contracts, operating cash flow, and approximately $9 billion in customer prepayments and deposits expected in the next three months alone. That financial flexibility positions us to keep delivering the infrastructure and software customers need to build, run, and scale AI."

Business Outlook
We are raising our full year 2026 revenue guidance to a range of $13.0 billion to $13.3 billion.
We are also raising our full year 2026 adjusted operating income2 guidance to a range of $1.275 billion to $1.375 billion, representing a 26% increase at the midpoint compared with our prior guidance.
We continue to expect more than 1.85 gigawatts of active power at year-end.
We now expect full year 2026 capital expenditures of $37 billion to $39 billion, raising the low end of our prior guidance range of $35 billion to $39 billion. This is as a result of our expectation to deploy infrastructure and deliver it to customers sooner than planned.
We expect interest expense for Q4 2026 in the range of $1.05 to $1.15 billion.
Finally, we are raising our annualized run-rate revenue3 guidance to $20 billion to $21 billion to exit 2026.

Disclosure Information
CoreWeave uses its investor relations page (investors.coreweave.com), its X account (@CoreWeave), its Instagram account (@CoreWeave_), and its LinkedIn page (linkedin.com/company/coreweave/) to disclose material non-public information and to comply with its disclosure obligations under Regulation FD. Accordingly, investors should monitor these channels, in addition to following CoreWeave's press releases, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, public conference calls and public webcasts.
| _________________________________ |
| 2 We have not provided the forward-looking GAAP equivalent for forward-looking Adjusted Operating Income or a GAAP reconciliation as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as share-based compensation expense and income taxes. Accordingly, a reconciliation of these non-GAAP guidance metrics to their corresponding GAAP equivalents is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that material changes to reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results and, as such, we also believe that any reconciliations provided would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors. |
| 3Annualized run-rate revenue (ARR) is calculated by taking revenue from the last month of the quarter multiplied by 12. |

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable securities laws. Such statements are based on our current expectations, forecasts and assumptions and involve risks and uncertainties. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to our business; our strategy; our capital structure; our future growth; our technology; our contracted power; SSD capacity; expectations for future customer prepayments and deposits; guidance for full-year 2026 revenue and adjusted operating income, guidance for annualized run-rate revenue to exit 2026; expectations for Q4 2026 interest expense, active power at year-end, and full-year 2026 capital expenditures; customer demand; and other estimated amounts included in our revenue backlog figure. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “can,” “predict,” “potential,” “target,” “explore,” “continue,” “outlook,” “guidance,” or the negative of these terms, where applicable, and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Our expectations and beliefs regarding these matters may not materialize, and actual results in future periods are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks include but are not limited to our ability to execute our business strategies and manage our growth, our ability to maintain and grow our customer base, continued demand for AI infrastructure, our ability to access sufficient power for our data centers and to obtain sufficient storage capacity, any disruption in our strategic relationships or disruptions with our third-party providers, including our suppliers and data center partners, our ability to develop and maintain our corporate infrastructure and internal controls, our financial performance, our substantial indebtedness, capital requirements and ability to raise additional capital and the impact of global political and macroeconomic conditions, including the effects of global geopolitical conflicts, inflation, tariffs, trade controls, interest rates, any instability in the global banking sector and foreign currency exchange rates. More information about factors that could affect our operating results is included under the captions "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our most recent filings with the SEC, including in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 that will be filed with the SEC on or about the date of this press release, copies of which may be obtained by visiting our Investor Relations website at https://investors.coreweave.com or the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements are made and are based on information available to us at the time those statements are made and/or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events. Additionally, the forward-looking statements in this press release do not include the potential impact of any acquisitions that may be announced and/or completed after the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, except as required by law. Our results for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of our operating results for any future periods.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we use adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating income (loss) margin, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) margin, collectively, to help us evaluate our business. We use such non-GAAP financial measures to make strategic decisions, establish business plans and forecasts, identify trends affecting our business, and evaluate operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because they allow for greater transparency into what measures we use in operating our business and measuring our performance and enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods where items may vary independent of business performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are presented on a non-GAAP basis without reconciliation due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. Accordingly, a reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is not available without unreasonable effort.
A reconciliation is provided below for each historical non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. CoreWeave encourages investors to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate CoreWeave’s business.
