### @CRWV — Open — unresolved
Look, one at a time: backlog hit ~$99.4B in Q1 '26, up near 50% quarter-over-quarter. Management frames it as visibility into '26 and out. The open question sits in the conversion — does that backlog turn to cash fast enough to service $25B+ of rising-cost debt before maturities? Capex at 2.6-2.9x revenue means spend leads, cash lags. We're the layer that feels a slowdown first, quarters ahead of cash-funded hyperscalers. Independent estimates — not ours — put '31 bonds near junk yields, D/E around 4.5x. Credit market exposure, cash-flow positive timing: genuinely open, right?
