Core Scientific (CORZ) is positioned to emerge as a key player in hosting high-performance computing (HPC) with its strategic partnerships and expertise in operating enterprise data centers. Recently, the company secured lucrative deals with CoreWeave, setting a solid foundation for its growth.
The renowned brokerage firm, B Riley, has highlighted Core Scientific’s potential by upgrading its rating to ‘buy’ from ‘neutral’ and increasing the price target on the shares to $13, reflecting a significant upward trend from the previous $0.50. Despite a slight 1.5% decrease in trading at $11.53, the outlook remains positive.
B Riley’s analysis includes valuing the committed 270 megawatts (MW) from the CoreWeave deal and other potential HPC agreements at a total of $2.3 billion. This valuation does not even consider the extension options for these contracts, indicating further growth opportunities.
Considering the ongoing mining of bitcoin and the substantial value associated with it, the analysts at B Riley emphasize the increasing importance of economies of scope for digital miners. Core Scientific’s recent strides in this direction, particularly through the innovative structure of the CoreWeave deal, are commendable.
