Mizuho analyst Gregg Moskowitz reiterated a Neutral rating on CoreWeave (CRWV) with a $150.00 price target. The firm believes CoreWeave has the potential to capture a significant share of the AI cloud provider market but considers the upside and downside balanced due to a 300% gain since its IPO.

CoreWeave, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRWV), the AI Hyperscaler™, has reported its second quarter 2025 financial results, demonstrating continued momentum and robust demand for its AI cloud platform. The company's revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, was $1,212,788, a significant increase from $395,371 in the same period last year [1].

Michael Intrator, Co-Founder, Chairman of the Board, and Chief Executive Officer of CoreWeave, stated, "Our strong second quarter performance underscores the continued demand for AI infrastructure. We are scaling rapidly to meet this unprecedented demand, with our purpose-built AI cloud platform setting new benchmarks for performance and scalability."

Key highlights of the second quarter include:
- Revenue backlog stood at $30.1 billion as of June 30, 2025.
- The company secured a $4 billion expansion deal with OpenAI and expanded its customer base with new hyperscaler and enterprise clients such as BT Group, Cohere, and LG CNS.
- CoreWeave ended the quarter with approximately 470 MW of active power and increased total contracted power to 2.2 GW.
