CoreWeave drops 5% on $3B convertible note sale and 35M share ATM program
Direct answer
CoreWeave tapped capital markets with a dual-tranche financing comprising $3.0 billion of convertible senior notes due 2033 and a 35 million share ATM equity program. The stock declined over 5% during the session. While management pointed to $25 billion in new customer commitments driving compute cluster expansion, the substantial funding volume highlights the continuing capital intensity of AI data center buildouts.
