CoreWeave reports 168% Q3 revenue growth, raises 2026 outlook and seeks $4 billion investment‑grade loan
CoreWeave Inc. posted third‑quarter 2026 revenue of $3.66 billion, up 168% year over year, and lifted its full‑year revenue guidance to $13 billion‑$13.3 billion. Management said the company will seek at least $4 billion of investment‑grade loan financing, led by Morgan Stanley and Mitsubishi UFJ, at a 7%‑7.5% yield, backed by GPU hardware and customer contracts. The firm also announced $9 billion of customer pre‑payments and deposits expected within three months. CEO Michael Intrator highlighted demand far exceeding capacity through 2027‑2028.
Why it matters
The raised revenue outlook and the planned low‑cost loan improve the company’s liquidity outlook, but the $4 billion loan and $37‑$39 billion 2026 capex underscore continued reliance on debt. Investors will watch whether the loan reduces the high‑interest burden that currently drives a $846 million quarterly interest expense.
