According to Yonhap News, CoreWeave, an AI cloud computing company, was forced to make significant concessions in a $2.6 billion loan facility secured by its computing power supply contract with Anthropic due to weak investor demand: the loan’s annual yield was raised to 9.1%, and a "Cash Flow Lockbox" protection clause was added to ensure that revenue generated from the Anthropic contract is prioritized for debt repayment. This clause will remain in effect until 50% of the loan principal is repaid or server utilization falls below a specified threshold. Following these adjustments, subscription demand rapidly reversed—by the morning of July 30, purchase orders exceeded $9 billion, more than three times the target financing amount. A CoreWeave spokesperson expressed satisfaction with the financing outcome, describing the revised terms as "a natural evolution in introducing innovative financial structures amid market volatility."
CoreWeave's $2.6 billion loan is oversubscribed threefold after terms are adjusted.
