CoreWeave is set to announce its first-quarter 2025 earnings results today after the market closes. This marks the company’s first earnings report since going public in late March of this year.
The AI cloud infrastructure provider has seen its stock climb impressively since its IPO. Despite initially pricing below the expected range at $40 per share, CoreWeave stock has rallied to $60.82.
This represents a gain of more than 50% from its offer price in less than two months.
Analysts are expecting CoreWeave to report March quarter revenue of approximately $857 million. Estimates for earnings per share range from a loss of 12 to 21 cents.
For the current quarter, analysts are projecting revenue to reach $988.4 million with earnings of one cent per share, according to FactSet data.
Company Growth and Infrastructure
CoreWeave has established itself as a specialized provider of GPU cloud services. The company focuses specifically on AI workloads rather than general web applications.
Founded in 2017, CoreWeave offers large-scale access to graphics processing units (GPUs) through its cloud platform. As of December 2024, the company operated 32 data centers running more than 250,000 GPUs.
These facilities are supported by over 360 megawatts of active power and use advanced liquid cooling technologies.
The company has a strong partnership with Nvidia, which invested in CoreWeave both as a private company and during its IPO. CoreWeave was among the first cloud providers to deploy Nvidia’s advanced H100, H200, and GH200 clusters for AI workloads.
In May 2025, CoreWeave acquired Weights & Biases to strengthen its cloud platform. The company has also expanded its credit facility from $650 million to $1.5 billion, pushing out the maturity date.
This increased funding will help CoreWeave continue building out its AI cloud infrastructure.
Market Position and Challenges
CoreWeave’s stock has outperformed both the broader market and its tech sector peers over the past month. Shares have gained 34% compared to 4.3% for the S&P 500 and 6.5% for the tech sector.
The company has even outpaced larger competitors like Microsoft and Amazon, which gained 15.8% and 14.6% respectively during the same period.
However, CoreWeave faces some key challenges. The AI cloud infrastructure market is highly competitive, with dominant players like Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud controlling more than half the market.
Another concern is customer concentration. In 2024, CoreWeave derived 77% of its total revenue from just two customers. This poses a risk if either client reduces spending or moves to a different provider.
Despite these challenges, some analysts remain optimistic about CoreWeave’s prospects. Last month, Jefferies analyst Brent Thill initiated coverage with a Buy rating.
“We believe we’re still in the very early innings of this buildout for AI, and CRWV being one of the few who has been able to scale & host AI compute reliably, is positioned well to capture this opportunity,” he wrote.
Investors will be watching closely for any guidance the company provides about future quarters. The call may offer insights into customer growth, infrastructure expansion plans, and strategies to compete with larger cloud providers.
CoreWeave currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), suggesting that while growth prospects remain intact, investors might want to wait for a better entry point.
The company’s earnings call later today will provide critical information about how well CoreWeave is executing in the competitive AI infrastructure market.
