Megaport FY26 slides: revenue jumps 37%, stock slips on capex concerns

In Megaport's FY26 results released on August 20, 2026, the company's revenue soared by 37% year-over-year to $312.2 million. This robust growth exceeded market expectations, while EBITDA reached $77.1 million, delivering a 25% margin that surpassed the top of the guidance. These impressive figures demonstrate Megaport's successful shift from a pure network infrastructure provider to a comprehensive compute, network, and storage platform.

Despite this impressive revenue growth, the stock dipped 6.5% to $19.01, as investors deliberated over the company's aggressive capital expenditure plans and uncertainty surrounding the timing of compute revenue. To support this expansion, Megaport completed a $827.3 million capital raise in June 2026 and secured a $825 million debt facility in August 2026, which included refinancing of an existing $150 million facility.

The acquisition of Latitude.sh in November 2025 and Extreme IX in December 2025 significantly expanded Megaport's total addressable market, enabling the company to tap into AI and high-performance computing workloads. The net revenue retention rate improved to 114%, marking a 5 percentage point increase year-over-year, which indicates strong expansion within the existing customer base.

Megaport's operational metrics highlighted significant strides in building, innovating, and investing. During the fiscal year, the company added 155 net new data centers, bringing its total footprint to 1,138 facilities across 31 countries. Network ARR growth by region remained consistent, with the Americas leading the charge at $166 million in ARR.

The compute business showed particularly strong momentum following the Latitude.sh acquisition, with ARR growth of 72% since the acquisition closed. Customer logos reached 3,206, a 12% increase year-over-year, while large customers grew 15% to 725. Total services deployed across the platform increased by 20% to 40,735.
