Core Scientific Inc: Strategic Positioning and Growth Potential Justify Buy RatingWeave (CRWV; Buy) proposed acquisition. We are certainly not bringing anything new to the table here as a contingent of sharp sell-siders have set new, elevated expectations for Core Scientific and its shares. By way of explanation, we spent last week on the other side of the world, news-wise isolated à la and unable to react quickly, as is our preference—we were the first to upgrade Core Scientific post its bankruptcy emergence Jan. 25, 2024 as detailed here we offer as evidence of understanding the company's many competencies. Nothing has changed on that front, with the original $10.2B, 12-year HPC hosting deal struck with CoreWeave representing the foundation of the opportunity before Core Scientific's proven speed-to-market track record.

Potential Upside in Core Scientific Inc's Merger with CRWV Amid Valuation Discrepancies and Stock VolatilityWe are often asked by investors if CORZ shareholders will vote for the merger, and the answer highly depends on where CRWV is trading on any given day. We continue to view a fair takeout range of $16-23 for CORZ, which requires a CRWV stock price of ~$130-$186. As of Friday's close, the exchange ratio of 0.1235 indicates a valuation of $12.34 for CORZ, based on CRWV's stock price of $99.97. However, since CORZ's stock actually closed at $14.13, we believe this suggests that investors anticipate a rejected offer, given that the NPV of cash flows and the land value of CORZ's portfolio is worth more. However, just last Tuesday, CRWV traded at nearly $150, and the stock hit an all-time high of ~$183 on June 20th. As such, today's CRWV price is only one data point on a highly volatile deal price. The JEF PT on CRWV is $180, which is well within an appropriate valuation range, in our view.
