One-sentence summary

This dataset consolidates four groups of CoreWeave figures for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026 — income statement, balance sheet and cash flow, capacity and financing actions, and full-year guidance. Every number is taken from the company's November 10, 2026 press release and earnings presentation, with the basis for each item stated.

Reading the data ​

First, revenue growth and widening losses are two faces of the same curve. Revenue rose $2.296 billion sequentially-basis while operating expenses rose $2.141 billion: the increment was almost entirely absorbed. On the balance sheet, net property and equipment increased $26.2 billion in nine months, which is where the money went — into capacity, not into cash.

Second, the bottom line is decided below the operating line. Operating income was positive at $207 million, but net interest of $846 million and income tax of $83 million total $929 million, about 4.5x operating income. Given that structure, even doubling operating income would not turn GAAP net income positive while interest stays at this scale.

Third, the gap between backlog and current revenue is the key to reading this company. $132.5 billion of backlog against $13.0-13.3 billion of full-year revenue guidance is roughly 10x. That does not mean "the next decade of revenue is locked in" — recognition depends on delivery progress, service availability and customer payment, and the definition includes company estimates.

Fourth, power data now carries as much analytical weight as financial data. Active power of 1.7 GW (double the start of the year), 4.6 GW contracted, and a year-end target above 1.85 GW. The 2.9 GW gap between active and contracted is the delivery burden ahead, and the $37-39 billion capex guidance is what stands behind bringing that power online.

Fifth, leverage defines the risk exposure. Total liabilities of $87.456 billion against $4.025 billion of equity is about 21.7x. Recourse debt totals $41.6 billion ($9.183 billion current plus $32.417 billion non-current) and is the portion that must be serviced on the company's own credit; non-recourse debt of $5.29 billion is limited to project assets.

Limits when using this dataset ​

  • A dash means the company did not disclose that item on that basis; no values are estimated to fill gaps;
  • Quarterly cash-flow capex and full-year capex guidance use different bases and cannot be annualized by multiplying the quarter by four;
  • Revenue backlog, ARR and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP or company-defined and cannot be compared directly with same-named metrics at peers;
  • Customer concentration, revenue per customer, GPU depreciation life and margin per unit of compute are not disclosed;
  • The 4.8x throughput figure is a vendor-reported measurement, not a general performance multiple;
  • This dataset contains no figures derived by this site.
