Nebius reported Q1 2026 revenue of $399 million, surpassing analyst expectations. Its core AI cloud annual recurring revenue (ARR) surged 54% quarter-over-quarter to $1.92 billion, reflecting strong demand and efficient asset use. The company raised its contracted capacity guidance to 4 gigawatts, supported by a new 1.2 GW facility in Philadelphia and expansion in Finland. Despite strong growth, the analyst downgraded the stock to Hold, citing valuation concerns amid aggressive capital expenditures projected to reach $76.3 billion by 2028 for mega data center buildouts.
