RiverPark Large Growth Fund stated the following regarding CoreWeave, Inc. (NASDAQ:CRWV) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:

“CoreWeave, Inc. (NASDAQ:CRWV): CRWV shares declined in 4Q25 following the company’s 3Q25 report. While revenue grew more than 40% year-over-year, results came in slightly below elevated investor expectations, with management citing elongated lead times for GPU deliveries and a slower ramp in certain enterprise AI workloads. Gross margins compressed modestly due to higher power and data center infrastructure costs, and guidance pointed to continued investment intensity through 2026 as the company scales new facilities in Texas and Norway. These dynamics led to profit-taking after a strong post-IPO performance.

We believe CoreWeave’s purpose built infrastructure is uniquely positioned within the high performance cloud compute market. Its differentiated architecture, deep relationships with leading AI model developers, and strategic partnerships across the semiconductor and infrastructure supply chain create a compelling long-term opportunity. As capacity expands and utilization improves, we expect CoreWeave to emerge as a high-growth, high-return platform within next-generation cloud computing.”
