CoreWeave Stock Surges 19% After Earnings Beat

CoreWeave stock is soaring Wednesday after the AI infrastructure company delivered a strong second-quarter earnings report and raised its full-year sales outlook. Shares are trading around 107 dollars, up roughly 19 percent, after CoreWeave reported an adjusted loss of 1.03 dollars per share, well ahead of the 1.22 dollar loss that Wall Street had been expecting. Revenue for the quarter came in at 2.58 billion dollars, topping the 2.56 billion dollar consensus estimate. CEO Michael Intrator said the company "reached an important inflection point this quarter as our scale began to translate into expanding operating leverage," pointing to accelerating enterprise adoption and deeper investment in the company's technology platform. Alongside the earnings beat, CoreWeave raised its 2026 sales guidance to a range of 12.4 billion dollars to 13.2 billion dollars, up from a previous range of 12.0 billion to 13.0 billion. Analysts moved quickly to raise their targets. Baird analyst Rob Oliver maintained an Outperform rating and lifted his price target from 100 dollars to 130 dollars, while Cantor Fitzgerald's Brett Knoblauch reiterated an Overweight rating and raised his price target from 167 dollars to 176 dollars. The reaction reinforces investor conviction in the AI infrastructure buildout even as broader semiconductor and AI names continue to swing sharply on shifting sentiment. #CoreWeave #CRWV #AI 🌐 Find more market-moving insights at https://www.benzinga.com — your one-stop destination for the latest financial news, data, and expert analysis to stay ahead of the markets. 🖥️ Want the same tools the pros use—without the $10K Bloomberg terminal?
