Nebius Second-Quarter Revenue Exceeds Estimates Amid Robust AI Cloud Gains

Nebius (NBIS) reported stronger-than-expected second-quarter revenue on Wednesday as robust demand for artificial intelligence capacity drove more than 500% year-over-year growth in the Dutch company's cloud business.The cloud computing company's overall revenue surged to $582.3 million for the quarter ended June from $105.1 million the year before and topping the consensus on FactSet of $569.9 million. The top-line growth is attributable to increased capacity and higher pricing, Nebius said in a shareholder letter."Demand for AI capacity continues to grow exponentially, and we are converting that demand into contracted, profitable growth," Chief Executive Arkady Volozh said in the letter.AI cloud revenue, which accounted for 98% of the group topline, soared 514% to $574.9 million.The company closed four cloud deals in the second quarter with an average total contract value of more than $1 billion each. These deals reflect a yield of $20 million to $25 million per megawatt with upfront payments that cover 50% to 60% of associated capital expenditures, Volozh said during an earnings call, according to a FactSet transcript.Nebius' Nasdaq-listed shares gained 24% in Wednesday trade, while the stock has surged 185% so far this year.The company signed an up to $27 billion AI infrastructure deal with Meta Platforms (META) and secured a $2 billion investment from Nvidia (NVDA) earlier in the year.Nebius posted a net loss of $0.68 a share for the June quarter, compared with earnings of $2.38 the year before. Five analysts polled by FactSet expected a loss of $1.46.For 2026, the Dutch tech firm continues to project revenue of between $3 billion and $3.4 billion, Chief Financial Officer Dado Alonso said on the call. The Street is looking for $3.36 billion.Capital expenditures are still pegged at $20 billion to $25 billion for the current year."We remain confident in our ability to accelerate capacity deployment in the second half of the year and expect capacity deployed late in (the second quarter) to begin contributing to revenue in (the third quarter)," Alonso told analysts.On Tuesday, CoreWeave (CRWV) reported better-than-expected second-quarter results as revenue more than doubled year on year amid strong demand for cloud computing.Key industry players have reported strong annual cloud growth rates for their most recent quarter, with Amazon.com's (AMZN) Amazon Web Services sales surging 37% to $42.23 billion, Microsoft's (MSFT) Azure soaring 43% and Alphabet's (GOOG, GOOGL) Google cloud revenue jumping 82%.Price: $234.80, Change: $+41.57, Percent Change: +21.51%

CoreWeave Q2 Beat, Lifted Guidance Driven by Inference Growth, Oppenheimer Says

CoreWeave (CRWV) reported a Q2 beat and raised guidance, with inference demand driving upside despite higher near-term capital expenditures, Oppenheimer said in a note Wednesday.The company's inference services platform grew more than 100-fold in just a few months as incremental capacity was allocated to inference, driving better revenue-per-megawatt economics, the analysts said.They added that they expect higher revenue/MW, faster-than-expected capacity additions, and longer server useful lives to provide further upside.The analysts said the main negative is the higher capital expenditures outlook, which puts near-term pressure on free cash flow and operating margins as capacity is added ahead of the related revenue."Still, the strong growth outlook and market positioning clearly outweigh the near-term investment needs," they added.Oppenheimer reiterated its outperform rating and $150 price target on CoreWeave.The company's shares rose nearly 18% in the session.Price: $106.31, Change: $+15.99, Percent Change: +17.70%

CoreWeave Shares Climb on Revenue Beat, Raised Outlook as Analysts View Capacity Gains

CoreWeave (CRWV) shares rose sharply Wednesday after the company posted a second-quarter revenue beat and raised its full-year outlook, with analysts saying the company's capacity gains signal additional upside.The cloud-computing company reported revenue of $2.58 billion for the quarter ended June 30 late Tuesday, surpassing the FactSet-polled estimate of $2.55 billion.CoreWeave shares were up 18% in Wednesday trading and have climbed about 49% this year.For the full year, CoreWeave raised its revenue outlook to $12.4 billion to $13.2 billion, with Chief Financial Officer Nitin Agrawal saying on the earnings call that the company was seeing momentum "across our customer base," according to a FactSet transcript. The company previously guided for revenue of $12 billion to $13 billion.Analysts said CoreWeave's expanding scale will give it more leg-room to announce surprise capacity expansions and to boost margins through inference services."We expect higher revenue/(megawatt) combined with faster-than-expected capacity additions, as well as longer server useful-life, to provide additional upside going forward," Oppenheimer analysts Param Singh and Jake Heimowitz said in a note.On the earnings call, CFO Agrawal said the company expects to end the year with more than 1.85 gigawatts of active power, up from the previous guidance of more than 1.7 gigawatts.The Oppeneheimer analysts said they were "confident" that CoreWeave will reach its long-term target of over 8 gigawatts of active power by 2030."The only negative is the increased (capital expenditure) guide, which adds near-term pressure to (free cash flow) and (operating) margin given the mismatch between capacity additions and revenue timing," the Oppenheimer analysts said.CoreWeave raised its 2026 capital expenditure guidance to $35 billion to $39 billion from its prior forecast of $31 billion to $35 billion."Still, the strong growth outlook and market positioning clearly outweigh the near-term investment needs," Oppenheimer said.Price: $106.81, Change: $+16.49, Percent Change: +18.26%

US Equity Investors to Focus on Inflation, Iran Geopolitics, Quarterly Earnings This Week

US equity investors are expected to focus on inflation and Fed speak this week while keeping a close watch on geopolitical developments related to Iran and quarterly earnings.* Consumer and wholesale price inflation data is due Wednesday and Thursday, respectively. Retail sales will be out Friday while existing home sales are scheduled for Tuesday.* Cleveland Fed President Beth Hammack, who was one of the three dissenters at the July Federal Open Market Committee meeting seeking a quarter of a percentage point increase in interest rates, and Richmond Fed President Tom Barkin will be delivering speeches on Thursday, a day after the CPI is due for release.* Currently, there is a 56% probability that the Fed will leave the target rate unchanged at 3.5% to 3.75% at its upcoming September policy meeting, up from 33% a week ago, due to a decline in July's nonfarm payrolls released late last week.* "I buy that near-term inflation risk remains elevated and an overly data-dependent FOMC may well react by raising rates," a Scotiabank note said late Friday. "In the context of lagging effects of monetary tightening, however, I don't see this as appropriate in the face of how inflation risk is likely to evolve in a medium-term sense."* Cisco (CSCO), Applied Materials (AMAT), CoreWeave (CRWV), Rocket Lab (RKLB) and Simon Property Group (SPG) are among the companies reporting quarterly results.* Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said on Sunday an agreement with Oman on the strait was in its "final stages" but reiterated comments made on Saturday that Tehran would not reopen the channel unless the US met certain demands made by Tehran, Reuters reported. These include compensation and an end to sanctions and military threats, before the strategic waterway is reopened, the news report said.* President Donald Trump has signaled a US emphasis on increasing economic pressure on Iran, saying that Washington is "low-keying" negotiations with the country, according to CNN.

CoreWeave Q2 Revenue Expected at 'High End' of Guidance, Oppenheimer Says

CoreWeave (CRWV) is expected to report Q2 revenue at the "high end" of its $2.45 billion to $2.60 billion guidance range and maintain its 2026 targets, Oppenheimer said in a report Thursday.The company is scheduled to report its Q2 results on Aug. 11.The firm said investor concerns about capacity delays and industry overbuild are "overblown" because industry demand remains about four times available supply, the report said. The firm noted that the impact of competition from Meta Platforms (META) as "minimal."The firm said some Q3 capacity additions may be delayed by three to five months because of labor and operator financing constraints, shifting more "capacity expansion" into Q4. However, the firm still expects CoreWeave to exceed 1.7 gigawatts of "active power" by year-end, according to the report.The firm also noted "GPU infrastructure" prices have increased about 30% across the industry, potentially creating "upside" for CoreWeave over time, although the company's long-term contracts could delay the benefit.Oppenheimer reiterated an outperform rating on CoreWeave with a price target of $150.Price: $74.13, Change: $+13.31, Percent Change: +21.88%
