CoreWeave Cloud
One business: contracted GPU clusters sold on multi-year reserved contracts, together with the storage, networking, CPU and managed-inference services layered on top of them. What caps revenue is not demand but energised power - management describes demand from multiple customers for every GPU brought online, against a $104 billion revenue backlog. So the projection here is a build schedule rather than a sales forecast: megawatts switched on, the share of them actually earning across a quarter, and what a megawatt-quarter of CoreWeave Cloud sells for.

Assumptions & reasoning
- Every quarter here is consolidated revenue as reported. CoreWeave publishes one reportable segment and no revenue split, so this vertical is the whole company: nothing is apportioned and no quarter is estimated.
- Managed inference ARR went from $1M to more than $100M and the non-GPU services already exceed $400M of ARR, but both are ARR disclosures inside the same total and never segment revenue, so neither is broken out into its own line.
- Utilisation here is the share of energised megawatts earning across the quarter, not a contracted share. It reads 77% for Q2 because 300 of the 500 MW added landed in June, which is also why management says that power comes through in Q3 and Q4.
- Adjusted EBITDA is 92% depreciation and amortisation added back - D&A was $1,393M of the $1,510M. This margin is therefore a pre-depreciation margin on a fleet whose depreciation is the real cost of producing the revenue.
- Capex follows the guided $35-39B for 2026, which includes finance-leased hardware. The stored house free-cash-flow series counts only the cash property and equipment line, so this model burns considerably more than that series shows.
- Share count is held flat at the 551 million diluted shares of Q2, so the 13% year-over-year dilution and the $997M of common stock issued in the quarter are charged nowhere in the fair value.
