Nebius Plummets 6.24% on $1.33B Volume as Revenue Soars 625% Amid Expansion and Execution Risks Ranking 62nd in Market Activity

Nebius Group (NBIS) closed 8/13/2025 at a 6.24% decline, with a trading volume of $1.33 billion, ranking 62nd in market activity. Recent earnings reports highlighted a 625% year-over-year revenue surge to $105.1 million, driven by AI infrastructure growth and strategic customer acquisitions.

Management raised annualized run rate (ARR) guidance to $900 million–$1.1 billion, citing strong demand for copper GPUs and expanded data center capacity across the US and Europe. The company plans to secure 220 megawatts of power for GPU deployment by 2026, alongside investments in AI-focused ventures like ClickHouse and TripleTen.

Despite robust revenue growth, challenges persist. High capital expenditures ($2 billion in 2025) and a volatile macroeconomic climate raise concerns about execution risks. The stock trades at a price/book ratio of 4.7x, lower than the industry average, but analysts note valuation concerns amid aggressive scaling and competitive pressures from hyperscale cloud providers.

The backtest of a strategy buying top 500 volume stocks and holding for one day (2022–present) showed a 6.98% CAGR but a 15.46% maximum drawdown, underscoring the need for risk management in volatile markets.
