Why it matters: Q2 revenue grew just 0.6%, while operating loss widened. Q3 results will test whether growth and costs improve.
Watch forQ3 revenue is above $670 million year over year, and operating loss is smaller than $33 million.
Also watch forQ3 revenue is below $670 million, or operating loss is wider than $33 million.
Why it matters: Rackspace plans to leave low-margin resale as cloud providers move customers to direct contracts. A deeper drop would add pressure to the core business.
Worry ifFY26 Public Cloud revenue is below $1.45 billion, the low end of the current outlook.
Less concerning ifFY26 Public Cloud revenue is at least $1.45 billion and within the $1.45 billion to $1.50 billion outlook.
Why it matters: Rackspace used $32 million of cash in Q2, despite positive cash flow over the past year. Another cash outflow would add pressure.
Worry ifQ3 cash flow from operations is negative.
Less concerning ifQ3 cash flow from operating activities is zero or higher.
Why it matters: Rackspace cut its FY26 revenue outlook by $150 million in July. Results below the new low end would deepen that setback.
Worry ifReported FY26 revenue is below $2.45 billion, the low end of the current outlook.
Less concerning ifReported FY26 revenue is at least $2.45 billion and within the $2.45 billion to $2.55 billion outlook.
