CoreWeave Secures 76 MW AI Data Center Lease in $2.94B Deal
CRWV sits 43% above its 52-week low of $60.55.
Summary
A Blue Owl-affiliated developer is raising $1.1B in debt to build a 76 MW data center near Richmond that CoreWeave will fully lease for 15 years under a $2.94B contract. This locks in substantial future compute capacity for CoreWeave, supporting its $104B backlog, though the facility won't come online until 2027-2028. The deal follows CoreWeave's recent $4.2B convertible notes offering, signaling continued aggressive infrastructure expansion. The lease commitment is a major long-term obligation but also secures critical supply in a tight AI compute market.
