Synopsis
Applied Digital’s Q4 revenue jumped 41% year-on-year to $38 million, beating the analysts’ consensus estimate of $37.12 million, as per Fiscal AI data.
Applied Digital Corp. (APLD) CEO Wesley Cummins drew attention to CoreWeave’s (CRWV) recent deal for another 150 megawatts of capacity at a third facility on the Polaris Forge 1 campus, highlighting the site's growing role in powering advanced AI operations.
“Building on the momentum from these leases and the surging demand for AI infrastructure, we're actively marketing our multi-gigawatt pipeline to a diverse group of customers,” said Cummins during the fourth-quarter (Q4) earnings call.
Applied Digital stock traded over 30% higher on Thursday afternoon.
On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the stock jumped to ‘extremely bullish’ (84/100) from ‘neutral’ territory the previous day. Message volume shifted to ‘extremely high’ (82/100) from ‘normal’ levels in 24 hours.

CoreWeave has previously agreed to lease 250 megawatts of power at the Polaris Forge 1 data center under two major 15-year deals, potentially bringing in $7 billion in revenue.

“With the CoreWeave lease, we believe we're now roughly halfway toward our internal goal of generating $1 billion in annual net operating income over the next 3 to 5 years,” Cummins added.
