John Todaro has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors, including Applied Digital Corporation’s strategic expansion and promising future prospects. The company has increased its contracted capacity with CoreWeave to 400MW, indicating a significant growth in its operational capabilities. Additionally, Applied Digital is in advanced discussions with a major investment-grade hyperscaler, which suggests potential for further expansion and collaboration.
Despite a slight miss on adjusted EBITDA due to softer-than-expected mining hosting margins and increased general and administrative expenses, the company’s pipeline for high-performance computing opportunities remains strong. Todaro is optimistic about Applied Digital’s ability to deliver on its contracts, which could enhance its reputation and attract more investment-grade clients. This positive outlook is reflected in the initiation of FY28 estimates and an increased price target.
In another report released today, H.C. Wainwright also reiterated a Buy rating on the stock with a $15.00 price target.
