Q2 FY26 earnings call · Aug 4, 2026
Q2 FY26

TL;DR. Arista delivered its first $3 billion revenue quarter ($3.036B, +37.7% YoY) with non-GAAP EPS of $1.02, and raised full-year 2026 revenue guidance for the third time this year to approximately $12.6 billion (40% growth), while also raising the operating margin target to 48–49% and guiding Q3 revenue to ~$3.3 billion.

Bullish
  • + Non-GAAP EPS of $1.02, up 39.7% YoY
  • + Full-year 2026 revenue guidance raised for the third time this year to ~$12.6B, implying 40% growth
  • + Full-year 2026 operating margin target raised to 48–49%
  • + Q3 guidance of ~$3.3B revenue with EPS of $1.06–$1.08
  • + AI Etherlink customer base now exceeds 100 cumulative customers with AI target of at least $3.6B in 2026
Bearish
  • − Industry-wide supply tightness expected to persist through ~2028
  • − Multi-year purchase commitments nearly tripled YoY to ~$9.7B, raising future cost/inventory risk
  • − Full-year gross margin range maintained at only 62–64% inclusive of anticipated supply chain cost increases
  • − DSOs rose to 68 days from 64 days in Q1, signaling working-capital pressure
  • − Inventory grew to $2.5B and turns remain low at 1.7, with elevated balances expected
