CoreWeave's shares dropped 10% in premarket trading on Wednesday after releasing a quarterly report revealing a larger-than-expected loss. The Nvidia-supported company's results cast doubt on its ability to manage soaring operational costs amid strong AI demand.

The financial strain was evident as operating expenses nearly quadrupled to $1.19 billion in the second quarter. Analysts expressed skepticism over CoreWeave's reliance on specific customers and its profitability prospects due to widening losses and substantial capital requirements.

Posting a net loss of $290.5 million, surpassing the $190.6 million average estimate, CoreWeave faces challenges in meeting its debt obligations. Despite surging demand for its AI infrastructure, questions linger about potential stock pressure as the IPO lock-up period nears its expiry.
