CoreWeave CEO: ~300K GPUs come off contract in 2027-28, renewals worth nearly $10B a year

CoreWeave CEO Mike Intrator disclosed that more than 130,000 GPUs come off contract in 2027, with another 170,000 expiring in 2028 — roughly 300,000 GPUs in total — and that a robust pipeline of customers is already competing for this capacity.
At current pricing levels, 2027 renewals alone would generate approaching $4 billion in incremental annualized revenue with no additional CapEx required, growing to nearly $10 billion of annualized incremental revenue when including 2028 renewals — a striking illustration of pricing power in the AI compute rental market.
