Summary

DigitalOcean pre-announced preliminary Q2 2026 results showing dramatic acceleration in its AI infrastructure business. The company's remaining performance obligations are expected to exceed $800 million, up more than tenfold year-over-year, with the weighted average contract life nearly doubling from 1.6 to over 3 years.

This combination signals both explosive growth and a fundamental shift toward longer-term enterprise commitments. Revenue growth is expected to accelerate to 29% from 14% in the prior-year quarter, and the company indicated it will likely raise its full-year exit growth guidance.

The quarter included multiple nine-figure annual customer commitments—individual contracts worth at least per year—validating DigitalOcean's positioning in the AI inference market and its ability to win large enterprise deals. To support this demand, the company secured an additional 20 MW of data center capacity (roughly 15% increase) scheduled for late 2027 and early 2028, bringing total committed capacity to approximately 155 MW. Profitability metrics are expected at or above the high end of prior guidance. These are preliminary results subject to final quarter-end procedures, but the magnitude of the RPO growth and contract duration extension represent a material inflection in the business model.
