Q2 2026 reported results

What to watch

  1. Whether 30%+ revenue growth holds a second straight quarter. Analysts are modeling roughly $1.08 billion in Q2 revenue and non-GAAP EPS near $0.58, which would represent continued strong growth but a deceleration from Q1's 32% pace — the key number to watch is whether actual growt…
  2. New-logo bookings momentum, given how central "a new all-time record by a significant margin" was to the Q1 narrative — a repeat record, or even a strong sequential number, would reinforce the reacceleration thesis.
  3. AI-linked product traction— LLM Observability, Flex Logs, and Bits AI adoption — as the specific, checkable driver behind the acceleration story, versus the older narrative of steady but decelerating core-platform growth.
  4. Full-year guidance, and whether the raised $4.30-$4.34 billion range gets lifted again, which would signal confidence the Q1 beat wasn't a one-off.
