DigitalOcean klesl, ale zvýšil celoroční výhled tržeb
DOCN DigitalOcean Holdings
FMP Stock News 78
Original source text
A month has gone by since the last earnings report for DigitalOcean Holdings, Inc. (DOCN - Free Report) . Shares have lost about 15.7% in that time frame, underperforming the S&P 500.

Will the recent negative trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is DigitalOcean due for a breakout? Before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late, let's take a quick look at the latest earnings report in order to get a better handle on the important drivers.

DOCN Q2 Earnings Beat Estimates on AI Growth, Strong MarginsDigitalOcean posted second quarter 2026 non-GAAP earnings of 45 cents per share, which fell 23.7% year over year but topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 73.08%.

Revenues increased 28.6% year over year to $281.18 million and beat the consensus mark by 1.23%. Annual Run-Rate Revenue (ARR) reached $1.125 billion, up 29%, while AI Customer ARR jumped 212% to $234 million.

DOCN's Large-Customer Cohorts Fueled GrowthGrowth was led by higher-spending customers. ARR from $1 million-plus customers reached $259 million, up 214% year over year and accounted for 23% of total ARR. ARR from $500,000-plus customers rose 160% to $291 million, while the $100,000-plus cohort increased 98% to $395 million.

The expansion also strengthened contracted visibility. Remaining performance obligations climbed to $894 million from $71 million a year earlier, with $366 million expected to be recognized over the next 12 months. DigitalOcean also signed its first nine-figure annual customer commitments, extending weighted average contract life from 1.6 years to more than three years.

DigitalOcean's AI-Native Cloud Gained TractionInference services grew 762% year over year, while 85% of AI customer ARR came from inference services and core cloud rather than bare metal. The Inference Engine attracted more than 6,000 customers after its late-April launch, and token volume increased roughly 30-fold over the prior 60 days.

Product expansion supported that adoption. DOCN shipped more than 80 releases across its five-layer AI-Native Cloud since April. Roughly 70% of AI customers with at least $100,000 in ARR attached a core cloud product, indicating broader use of compute, storage, databases and orchestration alongside AI workloads.

DOCN's Higher Costs Compressed GAAP MarginsGross profit increased to $154.66 million from $130.95 million, but gross margin declined to 55.0% from 59.9%.

Total operating expenses rose to $125.29 million from $95.33 million. Research and development expense climbed to $57.5 million from $39.6 million, while sales and marketing rose to $22.6 million from $19.3 million. General and administrative expense increased to $45.2 million from $36.4 million.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 26.9% to $113.56 million, while the margin edged down to 40% from 41%.

GAAP operating income fell 17.5% to $29.37 million, with operating margin contracting to 10% from 16%. Adjusted operating income rose 9.3% to $67.48 million, though its margin declined to 24% from 28%.

DigitalOcean's Cash Flow Supported Capacity BuildAs of June 2026, cash and cash equivalents totaled $767.03 million compared with $741.5 million as of March 31, 2026.

Net cash provided by operating activities rose 19.0% to $109.97 million, while the operating cash flow margin declined to 39% from 42%. Adjusted free cash flow increased 6.3% to $60.59 million, with the corresponding margin narrowing to 22% from 26%.

DOCN Raised Its 2026 OutlookFor the third quarter of 2026, DigitalOcean expects revenues of $304 million-$307 million, representing 32%-34% growth. Adjusted EBITDA margin is projected to be 38%-39%, while non-GAAP earnings are expected to be between 28 cents and 30 cents per share.

For 2026, DOCN raised revenue guidance to $1.170 billion-$1.180 billion from $1.130 billion-$1.145 billion. The company now expects 30%-31% revenue growth, a 38.5%-39.5% adjusted EBITDA margin, an 11%-13% adjusted free cash flow margin and non-GAAP earnings of $1.35-$1.40 per share. Management also expects revenue growth of at least 35% by the fourth quarter and reiterated confidence in more than 50% growth in 2027.

How Have Estimates Been Moving Since Then?Since the earnings release, investors have witnessed a upward trend in estimates revision.

VGM ScoresCurrently, DigitalOcean has a subpar Growth Score of D, however its Momentum Score is doing a lot better with an A. However, the stock was allocated a grade of F on the value side, putting it in the bottom 20% quintile for value investors.

Overall, the stock has an aggregate VGM Score of F. If you aren't focused on one strategy, this score is the one you should be interested in.

OutlookEstimates have been trending upward for the stock, and the magnitude of these revisions looks promising. Notably, DigitalOcean has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). We expect an in-line return from the stock in the next few months.

Performance of an Industry PlayerDigitalOcean belongs to the Zacks Internet - Software industry. Another stock from the same industry, Reddit Inc. (RDDT - Free Report) , has gained 1.8% over the past month. More than a month has passed since the company reported results for the quarter ended June 2026.

Reddit Inc. reported revenues of $804.91 million in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +61.1%. EPS of $1.25 for the same period compares with $0.45 a year ago.

Reddit Inc. is expected to post earnings of $1.33 per share for the current quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +66.3%. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate has changed +1.7%.

The overall direction and magnitude of estimate revisions translate into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for Reddit Inc.. Also, the stock has a VGM Score of B.

DigitalOcean spouští Managed AI Agents v Cloudways
DOCN DigitalOcean Holdings
FMP Stock News 78
Original source text
This post may contain links from our sponsors and affiliates, and Flywheel Publishing may receive compensation for actions taken through them.

Shares of DigitalOcean (NYSE:DOCN | DOCN Price Prediction) are climbing midday Monday after the company announced general availability of Managed AI Agents through its Cloudways service. DigitalOcean stock is up 5% to $137.04, extending a 170% year-to-date advance.

The move stands out because the rest of cloud infrastructure is trading lower. Fastly (NYSE:FSLY) shares are down 4% to $28.67, and Akamai (NASDAQ:AKAM) shares are down 2% to $122.89. That divergence points to a company-specific reaction rather than a broad sector bid.

Managed AI Agents Land on Cloudways Cloudways, a DigitalOcean service, announced general availability of Managed AI Agents, a new product line launching with OpenClaw and Hermes as its first two managed agents, with additional open-source agents planned. The pitch is that deploying AI agents in production usually requires provisioning infrastructure, configuring containers, securing environments, and handling ongoing maintenance. The managed offering removes that overhead.

Customers can deploy through the same Cloudways platform they already use for application hosting. Every deployment runs in an isolated environment, agent runtime updates are validated by Cloudways before rollout, and a 1-click MCP integration lets an agent act on the servers and applications a customer already runs on the platform. DigitalOcean cited more than 386,000 GitHub stars for OpenClaw and more than 228,000 for Hermes as evidence of established communities behind both projects.

Suhaib Zaheer, SVP Managed Hosting at DigitalOcean and General Manager at Cloudways, provided a concise explanation:

The general availability of OpenClaw and Hermes on Cloudways represents an important milestone in our vision of making AI infrastructure simpler and more accessible. As AI agents become an increasingly important part of how the customer builds and deploys applications, we believe running them should be just as simple and reliable as deploying any other workload.

The announcement is DigitalOcean’s own press release distributed through Business Wire, not independent reporting. No pricing, customer commitments, revenue contribution, or financial targets were disclosed.

The Honest Read The constructive case is that DigitalOcean positions itself as an AI-native cloud built for inference and agentic workloads, serving more than 680,000 customers. Managed agent hosting fits that strategy, moving the company up the stack from raw infrastructure toward higher-value managed services (we profiled seven picks-and-shovels AI infrastructure names, from power to networking, in a report you can access here).

The skeptical case is that OpenClaw and Hermes are open-source projects DigitalOcean didn’t build, so packaging third-party software as managed hosting is a competitive convenience rather than proprietary technology. With DigitalOcean stock already up 170% year to date, the launch lands on a name with substantial expectations built in. That cuts both ways.

Peers Trade the Other Direction Fastly stock, from an edge cloud platform spanning delivery, security, compute, and observability, is down 4% today despite a 194% year-to-date run. Akamai stock is down 2% today for the cybersecurity and cloud computing company operating a highly distributed content delivery network, with Akamai stock up 43% year to date.

Cloudflare (NYSE:NET), a connectivity cloud company building infrastructure for agent-driven internet traffic, has Cloudflare stock up 60% year to date. The peer read reinforces that today’s action is about DigitalOcean specifically.

WisdomTree Cloud Computing Fund (NASDAQ:WCLD) shares are down 2% to $39.82, and the ETF is up 16% year to date. Its decline alongside gains in DigitalOcean isolates how company-specific the move is. The gap between the fund’s return and DigitalOcean’s shows how far the individual name has outrun the broad cloud basket.

What to Watch Investors can watch for whether DigitalOcean discloses pricing, adoption, or revenue contribution for Managed AI Agents in future reporting, and whether additional open-source agents are added on schedule. Also worth tracking is whether larger cloud providers move to offer comparable managed agent hosting, and whether the company’s AI-related workload mix continues accelerating into Q4 2026.

On the peer side, Fastly’s ability to defend edge and CDN turf against AI-native cloud entrants remains a key question, as does whether today’s rotation into DigitalOcean signals a broader repricing of cloud infrastructure names by AI exposure.

Raising 2026 revenue outlook

RPO increased to $894 million, up 12x from a year ago

Q2 2026 Revenue of $281 million grew 29% year-over-year

Million+ Dollar Customer ARR grew 214% year-over-year to $259 million

AI Customer ARR grew 212% year-over-year to $234 million

Record $93 million in incremental ARR

BROOMFIELD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--DigitalOcean Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: DOCN), the AI-Native Cloud purpose-built for inference and agentic workloads, today announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

"Our growth rate is accelerating, as revenue grew 29% year-over-year, more than double our growth rate a year ago," said Paddy Srinivasan, CEO of DigitalOcean. "The acceleration is coming from our highest spending customers and sophisticated AI Natives, and we are now beginning to land nine-figure annual commitments. Early Inference Engine customers drove their total token consumption up approximately 30x in the last 60-days, and 85% of our AI customer ARR now comes from inference and core cloud rather than bare metal. Just as important is how we are growing: attractive margins, positive free cash flow, capacity delivered on or ahead of schedule, and a stronger balance sheet. Our customer momentum and early product traction give us confidence to raise our 2026 revenue outlook to approximately 30%, reaching 35% or more by Q4 2026, and strengthen our conviction in our ability to exceed 50% growth in 2027."

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights(1):

Revenue was $281 million, an increase of 29%. Annual Run-Rate Revenue (“ARR”) ended the quarter at $1,125 million, an increase of 29%. AI Customer ARR was $234 million, an increase of 212%. Record $93 million of incremental ARR added during the quarter, an increase of 191%. Net income attributable to common stockholders was $35 million, a decrease of 4%, and net income margin was 13%. Operating income was $29 million, a decrease of 18%, and operating income margin was 10%. Adjusted operating income was $67 million, an increase of 9%, and adjusted operating income margin was 24%. Adjusted EBITDA was $114 million, an increase of 27%, and adjusted EBITDA margin was 40%. Diluted net income per share was $0.29 and non-GAAP diluted net income per share was $0.45. Net cash from operating activities increased to $110 million at a 39% margin, from $92 million at a 42% margin in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted free cash flow increased to $61 million at a 22% margin, from $57 million at a 26% margin in the second quarter of 2025. Cash and cash equivalents was $767 million as of June 30, 2026. Remaining Performance Obligation (“RPO”)(2) was $894 million, of which, $366 million is expected to be recognized over the next 12 months. RPO was $71 million in the second quarter of 2025. Second Quarter 2026 Operational Highlights(1):

Launched Inference Engine as part of AI-Native Cloud. Shipped more than 80 product releases since April. Signed first nine-figure annual customer commitments with leading AI-Natives, extending weighted average contract life from 1.6 years to over 3 years. Secured an incremental 20 MW of committed data center capacity expected to come online in 2027 and 2028, bringing total committed capacity to approximately 155 MW, with additional capacity actively being pursued. Added to the Russell 1000 Index, recognition of a business that has scaled with discipline, pairing durable growth with consistent execution. The number of $100K+ Customers(3) grew 9%, while the revenue from these customers, which now represents 35% of total revenue, grew 98%. The number of $500K+ and $1M+ Customers grew 35% and 73%, respectively. Revenue from these customers, which now represents 26% and 23% of total revenue, grew 160% and 214%, respectively. Recent Developments:

Repurchased approximately $472 million of our 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030, funded by a concurrent registered direct offering, reducing leverage with minimal cash usage and minimal dilution, with issued shares offset by the retired notes and an intended repurchase of approximately 500,000 shares. Financial Outlook:

DigitalOcean is initiating guidance for the third quarter ending September 30, 2026 as follows:

Total revenue of $304 to $307 million, up 32% to 34% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 38% to 39%. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share of $0.28 to $0.30. Fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 126 to 127 million shares. For the full year 2026, we now expect:

Total revenue of $1.170 to $1.180 billion, up 30% to 31% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 38.5% to 39.5%. Adjusted free cash flow margin in the range of 11% to 13% of revenue. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share of $1.35 to $1.40. Fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 122 to 123 million shares. A reconciliation of non-GAAP outlook measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. For example, stock-based compensation expense-related charges are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. Accordingly, a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort and we are unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP.

The financial guidance presented in this release are estimates based on information available to management as of the date of this release. There can be no assurance that our actual results will not differ from the financial guidance presented in this release.

Conference Call Information:

DigitalOcean will host a conference call today, August 4, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. ET to review its results. The conference call and presentation can be accessed by registering for the webcast at https://events.q4inc.com/attendee/684389800.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, we provide investors with non-GAAP financial measures including: (i) adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin, (ii) adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin and (iii) non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share. These measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.

We believe that adjusted operating income margin and adjusted EBITDA, when taken together with our GAAP financial results, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance (including our long-term performance in the case of adjusted operating income) and facilitate internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations or outlook. In particular, we believe that the use of adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA is helpful to our investors as they are measures used by management in assessing the health of our business, evaluating our operating performance, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

We believe non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share provides our management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of unusual or non-recurring items from period to period for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.

Our calculations of each of these measures may differ from the calculations of measures with the same or similar titles by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. Because of these limitations, when evaluating our performance, you should consider each of these non-GAAP financial measures alongside other financial performance measures, including the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and our other GAAP results. A reconciliation of each of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is set forth in the tables in the section “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Data.”

Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income Margin

We define adjusted operating income as operating income, adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition related compensation, acquisition and integration related costs, restructuring and other charges, restructuring related charges, impairment of certain long-lived assets and other charges. We define adjusted operating income margin as adjusted operating income as a percentage of revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to common stockholders, adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, interest expense, acquisition related compensation, acquisition and integration related costs, income tax expense (benefit), restructuring and other charges, restructuring related charges, impairment of certain long-lived assets, interest income and other income, net, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, net, and other charges. We define adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Diluted Net Income Per Share

We define non-GAAP net income as net income attributable to common stockholders, excluding stock-based compensation, acquisition related compensation, amortization of acquired intangibles, acquisition and integration related costs, restructuring and other charges, restructuring related charges, impairment of certain long-lived assets, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, net, and other charges. In addition to these exclusions, we subtract an assumed non-GAAP provision for income taxes to calculate non-GAAP net income that excludes the current period income tax benefit (expense). We utilize a fixed long-term projected tax rate in our computation of the non-GAAP income tax provision in order to provide better consistency across reporting periods. We define non-GAAP diluted net income per share as non-GAAP net income divided by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding, which includes the potentially dilutive effect of our stock options, RSUs, PRSUs, and Convertible Notes and, beginning in the first quarter of 2026, excludes the in-the-money portion of our 2030 Convertible Notes as they are covered by our capped call transactions, which are expected to mitigate the dilutive effect of our 2030 Convertible Notes.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin

Adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, capitalized internal-use software costs, purchase of intangible assets, and excluding cash paid for restructuring and other charges, acquisition related compensation, restructuring related charges, and acquisition and integration related costs. Adjusted free cash flow margin is calculated as adjusted free cash flow divided by total revenue.

We believe that adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow margin are useful indicators of liquidity that provide information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated from our core operations that can be used for strategic initiatives, including investing in our business and selectively pursuing acquisitions and strategic investments. We further believe that historical and future trends in adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow margin, even if negative, provide useful information about the amount of net cash provided by operating activities that is available (or not available) to be used for strategic initiatives. Adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow margin exclude acquisitions of equipment under financing arrangements, finance leases, and our future contractual commitments. Additionally, adjusted free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenses given our debt obligations and the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for a given period.

Unlevered Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Unlevered Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin

Unlevered adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as adjusted free cash flow excluding cash paid for interest and interest income. Unlevered adjusted free cash flow margin is calculated as unlevered adjusted free cash flow divided by total revenue.

We believe that unlevered adjusted free cash flow and unlevered adjusted free cash flow margin provide additional information to adjusted free cash flow about our liquidity and, measured over time, enable management and investors to monitor the underlying business’ growth pattern and ability to generate cash. We further believe that unlevered adjusted free cash flow is an important metric, as it provides a clear view of our cash generation before the impact of financing decisions and many investors and analysts use unlevered adjusted free cash flow as the basis of their enterprise value calculations as they assess the value of our business. Unlevered adjusted free cash flow and unlevered adjusted free cash flow margin exclude certain charges that will be settled in cash, such as interest paid to service our debt and equipment financing obligations. Additionally, unlevered adjusted free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenses given our debt obligations and the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for a given period.

Key Business Metrics:

We utilize the key metrics set forth below to help us evaluate our business and growth, identify trends, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions.

Customers

We calculate customer count as the average number of customers as of the last day of the month for each month in the most recent quarter. Customers are classified in the following categories based on the amount of their spend in a given month and individual customers may fall within different categories within a reporting period (customer spend in a month in whole dollars):

Digital Native Enterprise Customers: users that spend more than $500 in a month. $100K+ Customers: users that spend more than $8,333 in a month. $500K+ Customers: users that spend more than $41,667 in a month. $1M+ Customers: users that spend more than $83,333 in a month. ARR

We calculate ARR by multiplying total revenue for the most recent quarter by four.

AI Customer ARR

We calculate AI Customer ARR by multiplying total AI Customer Revenue for the most recent quarter by four. AI Customer Revenue is defined as the total revenue generated from customers who utilize one or more of our AI/ML offerings, inclusive of their revenue from our IaaS and PaaS/SaaS offerings during the period.

Other Metrics:

Remaining Performance Obligation

Remaining performance obligation (“RPO”) represents commitments in customer contracts for future services that have not yet been recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements. RPO is not necessarily indicative of future revenue growth because it does not account for the timing of customers’ consumption or their usage beyond their contracted capacity. Additionally, RPO may increase when customers transition from usage-based to commitment-based agreements, which does not always reflect incremental revenue growth. RPO is influenced by a number of factors, including the timing and size of renewals, the timing and size of purchases of additional capacity and average contract term. Due to these factors, it is important to review RPO in conjunction with revenue and other financial metrics contained in this release and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and subsequent filings and reports we make with the SEC.

Our outstanding capped call transactions are antidilutive under GAAP, but are expected to mitigate the dilutive effect of our 2030 Convertible Notes, and therefore are included in the calculation of non-GAAP diluted shares outstanding. The capped calls have an antidilutive impact when the average stock price of our common stock in a given period is higher than their exercise price.

DigitalOcean čeká silné hospodářské výsledky a růst tržeb
DOCN DigitalOcean Holdings
FMP Stock News 78
Original source text
DigitalOcean (DOCN +4.80%) is currently building artificial intelligence (AI) data centers as fast as it can to meet soaring demand for computing capacity from its customers, many of which are small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). The company's revenue growth is accelerating, which has fueled a staggering 360% increase in its stock over the last 12 months.

DigitalOcean will release its operating results for the second quarter on Aug. 4, and they could determine whether the stock's upward momentum continues. Should investors be buying at the current price?

Image source: Getty Images.

Demand is off the charts for DigitalOcean's AI data centers The cloud computing industry is dominated by trillion-dollar companies like Amazon and Microsoft, but those giants typically chase the customers with the highest spending potential. That leaves SMBs somewhat underserved, but DigitalOcean has filled this gap in the market by offering those smaller companies affordable cloud services with highly personalized support and a simple interface for ease of use.

It is applying that same blueprint to its new platform, which it calls AI-Native Cloud. It features five distinct layers to help DigitalOcean customers develop and deploy AI software. The foundational layer is infrastructure, which includes 20 data centers (and growing) housing thousands of the latest chips from suppliers like Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices.

Businesses can rent computing capacity from those data centers through AI-Native Cloud, and the platform's other four layers provide the tools to develop usable AI software. Those tools include ready-made large language models (LLMs) from companies like Anthropic, which can serve as the foundation for powerful AI chatbots and AI agents.

On July 7, DigitalOcean announced that it ended Q2 with a whopping $800 million in remaining performance obligations (RPO), which was a tenfold increase from the year-ago period. RPO is usually defined as the value of signed contracts for services that haven't been delivered yet, so this metric can be a good predictor of future revenue. Simply put, it appears several DigitalOcean customers are lining up to rent more data center capacity from the company once it comes online.

The upcoming Aug. 4 report could be another blockbuster DigitalOcean generated $257.9 million in revenue during Q1, which was a 22% increase from the prior-year period. It was the third straight quarter in which that growth rate accelerated, and based on the company's July 7 update, revenue apparently soared at an even faster rate of 29% during Q2.

DigitalOcean also ended Q1 with a record $1.03 billion in annual run-rate revenue (ARR). AI customers accounted for $170 million of that total, up by a staggering 221% year over year. I would expect the company to report a similarly strong AI result on Aug. 4.

Guidance will be another key point of focus for Wall Street. The company previously said it expects to deliver overall revenue growth of 50% during 2027, but in its recent update, management told investors it plans to revise that forecast higher in the Q2 report because the business is carrying so much momentum.

Should investors buy DigitalOcean stock right now? DigitalOcean is firing on all cylinders right now, but there is a hitch for investors considering adding this stock to their portfolio today. It's trading at a price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of 15.4, which is significantly higher than its long-term average of 8.5 since going public in 2021.

However, based on DigitalOcean's 2027 revenue guidance, its forward P/S ratio is just 8.1. This is where the Aug. 4 report could be important. If management meaningfully revises the company's 2027 revenue growth forecast higher, then its forward P/S ratio might actually be much lower than 8.1. If that's the case, the stock might actually be cheap right now for any investors willing to hold it for at least the next 18 months.

DOCN PS Ratio data by YCharts.

DigitalOcean stock may be up by 360% over the last 12 months, but it's down 25% from its recent peak. This dip might be a good buying opportunity heading into the Aug. 4 report, but investors who add it now must be willing to hold the stock over at least the medium term -- but the longer the better -- to maximize their chances of positive returns.

DigitalOcean čeká 29% růst tržeb díky AI kontraktům
DOCN DigitalOcean Holdings

Original source text
Key Takeaways DigitalOcean expects Q2 revenue growth of about 29%, accelerating from 14% a year earlier. Nine-figure AI commitments should lift RPO above $800 million, more than 10 times the year-ago level. Contract duration should exceed three years as committed data center capacity reaches about 155 MW. DigitalOcean (DOCN - Free Report) shares have soared 171.2% year to date, significantly outperforming the Zacks Computer and Technology sector's return of 16.9%. The rally has been fueled by accelerating artificial intelligence (AI) adoption, an increasing number of enterprise clients and improving financial performance as the company transforms itself into an AI-native cloud platform.

However, the momentum has hit a brake in the past three sessions following DigitalOcean’s preliminary second-quarter 2026 results, which were announced on July 7. Shares lost 4.8% to close at $130.49 on July 10 and were roughly 3% down at the time of writing this article.

DOCN expects remaining performance obligations (RPO) to exceed $800 million, up more than 10 times year over year. The increase is being driven by multiple new nine-figure annual customer commitments for AI inference and cloud services. The weighted average contract duration is also expected to rise from 1.6 years to more than three years, significantly improving long-term revenue visibility.

DigitalOcean expects second-quarter revenue growth of approximately 29%, accelerating from 14% in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin and non-GAAP earnings per share are projected to be at or above the high end of previously issued guidance.

To support growing AI demand, the company has secured an additional 20 megawatts (MW) of committed data center capacity for late 2027 and early 2028, bringing total committed capacity to approximately 155 MW. These large customer commitments reinforce DigitalOcean's position as an emerging AI infrastructure provider while providing greater certainty around future revenues.

AI Expansion Supports DigitalOcean's Growth StoryThe preliminary second-quarter outlook builds on DigitalOcean's strong first-quarter execution. In the first quarter of 2026, revenues increased 22% year over year to $258 million, while AI customer annual recurring revenues (ARR) surged 221% year over year to $170 million. ARR from customers generating more than $1 million annually climbed 179% to $183 million, underscoring accelerating adoption among larger enterprise customers.

DigitalOcean has transformed from a traditional cloud infrastructure provider into a full-stack AI-native cloud platform that combines GPU infrastructure, inference services, managed databases, Kubernetes and AI agents within a single integrated platform.

The architectural landscape of cloud infrastructure is fracturing. For years, the market assumed legacy hyperscalers like Amazon NASDAQ: AMZN and Microsoft NASDAQ: MSFT would control the enterprise server space indefinitely, leaving smaller infrastructure providers to fight over budget-conscious developers.

That paradigm shifted on June 7, 2026, as DigitalOcean Holdings NYSE: DOCN defied a broadly declining macroeconomic backdrop and rose by more than 10% following a highly bullish preliminary second-quarter earnings release. The price action signals something much deeper than an earnings beat. The market is witnessing a pivot as smaller independent cloud providers capture high-margin, enterprise-scale workloads.

Investors chasing this momentum should unpack the underlying data to separate the growth story from the temporary distortions of short covering and passive index accumulation, because when you look closely, you can observe how DigitalOcean is changing the tide in the enterprise artificial intelligence sector.

Reeling in Revenue: Accelerating Top-Line MetricsAnalyzing the second-quarter pre-announcement reveals the distinct drivers behind the sudden upside volatility. Management now forecasts second-quarter revenue of $282.1 million, a 29% year-over-year acceleration. This decisively eclipses Wall Street’s consensus estimate of $273.6 million and marks a steep re-acceleration from the 14% growth recorded in the second quarter of last year.

While the top-line beat is impressive, the forward-looking metrics are fundamentally resetting valuation models across the sector. DigitalOcean reported remaining performance obligations exceeding $800 million. Remaining performance obligations act as a reliable leading indicator of future revenue, representing contracted but unrecognized sales.

Adding $550 million to this pipeline in a single quarter is a feat of management, reflecting a greater than tenfold increase from the prior year. The weighted-average contract life has also extended from 1.6 years to over three years. By locking in long-term capital, DigitalOcean is preserving adjusted EBITDA margins despite executing heavy infrastructure spending.

Deep Water Infrastructure: The Enterprise AI PivotThe historic surge in contracted revenue requires a permanent re-evaluation of DigitalOcean's target demographic. Historically, the broader market categorized the business as a volume-driven host for small businesses or independent software developers. A low average revenue per user model traditionally struggles during periods of macroeconomic tightening, as smaller clients churn or downsize their hosting plans to survive.

Management explicitly attributes the recent $550 million pipeline jump to multiple nine-figure annual customer commitments strictly tied to inference and AI workloads. Nine-figure contracts are fundamentally incompatible with small business budgets. These agreements are the domain of highly funded enterprise AI labs and institutional research divisions. DigitalOcean is effectively pivoting from a budget-friendly hosting service to a heavyweight player in AI infrastructure.

To support these enterprise contracts, DigitalOcean deployed capital from a recent $800 million equity offering to secure an additional 20 megawatts of data center capacity for late 2027 and early 2028. This brings the total committed capacity to 155 megawatts. By focusing on purpose-built architectures, such as its proprietary inference routing software, DigitalOcean is winning strictly on total cost of ownership against the major hyperscalers, avoiding a margin-crushing race to the bottom on pricing.

Currents of Capital: Institutional Buy-In Vs. Insider ExitsUnderstanding the mechanics of the current price action requires looking under the hood at market sentiment and institutional capital flows. Options flow reflects a strong upside bias, with the volume put-to-call ratio dropping to 0.18 and total contract volume rising above 136% of the average daily volume.

This bullish derivatives activity is colliding directly with forced buying in the underlying equity. Short interest currently sits at approximately ~12% of the public float, translating to roughly 12.2 million shares shorted. With a days-to-cover ratio nearing four, the double-digit intraday climb is undoubtedly exacerbated by short sellers scrambling to close underwater positions. Institutional ownership commands ~50% of outstanding shares (down from around ~90%), creating a structural floor that successfully absorbed the dilution from the recent equity offering.

Despite the institutional accumulation, retail investors should consider internal structural headwinds. Over the trailing three months, insiders liquidated approximately $565.9 million in stock. The bulk of this distribution came from major shareholder Access Industries, along with multi-million-dollar sales from key executives. With zero open-market insider purchases during this period, internal leadership is clearly utilizing the elevated valuation to take profits.

Sailing Close to the Wind: At 57x Earnings?The fundamental momentum backing DigitalOcean is undeniable, and the expanding contracted revenue provides visibility through 2026. However, market mechanics and valuation multiples should still matter for investors entering at these levels.

DigitalOcean commands a premium trailing price-to-earnings ratio of ~57x. A valuation this rich leaves very little room for operational missteps, particularly in a high-interest-rate environment where the broader technology sector remains highly sensitive to changes in the cost of capital.

The recent addition of DigitalOcean to the Russell 1000 index has led to continued passive index accumulation, creating an artificial tailwind for the share price. Investors should first acknowledge that DigitalOcean is currently priced for perfection, and the heavy insider distribution suggests that early institutional backers have already made the easy money.

Dropping Anchor: Rigging the Deck for an AI PivotThe cloud computing narrative is undergoing a fundamental shift, revealing that nimble, cost-effective infrastructure providers can thrive alongside the trillion-dollar tech giants. DigitalOcean is proving that independent operators can successfully capture enterprise market share without sacrificing profitability. The pivot toward artificial intelligence infrastructure is entirely resetting the forward growth trajectory and shielding DigitalOcean from the high-churn risks typically associated with small business clients.

The underlying data support the bullish price action, driven by tangible contract expansions rather than speculative hype. Investors evaluating the infrastructure space might consider adding DigitalOcean to their watchlist as a high-growth alternative to mega-cap technology stocks, provided they have the risk tolerance for premium valuation multiples and post-squeeze volatility.

DigitalOcean Holdings shares are climbing with conviction. What’s behind DOCN gains? Revenue Outlook Raises Questions About the Sustainability of Recent GrowthThe headline figure is a 29% year-over-year revenue increase expected for the second-quarter period, a dramatic step up from the 14% expansion the business delivered in the second quarter of 2025. Alongside the top-line beat the company said profitability metrics are also tracking ahead of plan with adjusted EBITDA margin and non-GAAP net income per share both on pace to finish at or beyond the upper boundary of guidance issued earlier this year.

DigitalOcean’s AI Customer Momentum Is AcceleratingCEO Paddy Srinivasan said customers are gravitating toward the platform because of its purpose-built architecture for inference and agentic applications and the cost advantages it offers over providers that simply rent out GPU hardware without the surrounding software layer.

DigitalOcean Expands Data Center Capacity to Meet DemandOn the infrastructure side the company locked in an additional 20 megawatts of data center space scheduled to become operational across late 2027 and early 2028 lifting its total secured capacity to around 155 megawatts. Management said conversations about securing further capacity beyond that are ongoing.

The stronger business trajectory is also expected to push the company’s full year revenue exit rate above what it had previously projected with specifics to be shared when formal quarterly results are released.
