Nebius shares sank 16% on Thursday as one of the biggest publicly traded neoclouds issued disappointing full-year revenue guidance.

Here's how the company performed relative to LSEG consensus:

• Earnings per share: 31 cents adjusted vs. loss of 69 cents per share expected
• Revenue: $980.8 million vs. $907.5 million expected

Revenue jumped 571% in the quarter, according to a statement. The company reported a net loss of $37.5 million, a loss of 13 cents per share, compared with $119.6 million, a loss of 50 cents per share, a year earlier.

The stock move also comes amid the resignation of Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, after stinging revelations about multiple extramarital affairs, including one with an alleged Chinese spy.

Nvidia, which has developed the neocloud market by investing in the companies and backstopping some of their projects, held about $329 million in Nebius shares at the end of June, according to a filing.

In a letter to shareholders, CEO Arkady Volozh said the company expects fiscal year 2026 revenue at the low end of the company's $3 billion to $3.4 billion range. Analysts surveyed by LSEG had $3.37 billion.

Nebius also shared an initial outlook for 2027, expecting revenue of $12 billion to $13 billion, "reflecting a conservative approach to the pace of our buildout." The LSEG consensus was $11.98 billion.

The company expects FY2026 capital expenditures of $27 billion, higher than its previous capex guidance of $20 billion to $25 billion and the FactSet expectation of $23.85 billion.

Nebius' expected FY2027 capex of $40 billion to $45 billion came in much higher than the FactSet expectation of $28.77 billion.

Nebius' results come after fellow neoclouds CoreWeave and IREN reported better-than-expected financials in their earnings announcements over the past week. That's provided a boost to the companies' stocks, which had suffered steep selloffs in recent weeks on concern about the sustainability of the artificial intelligence buildout.

The neocloud companies posted a robust rally on Wednesday, with Coreweave booming nearly 25%, Nebius climbing 15%, Applied Digital rising more than 7% and IREN adding nearly 6%.

Each of the stocks fell Thursday premarket after the Nebius Q3 report.

Last week, CoreWeave's bond yields spiked past the 16% mark. In its earnings report on Tuesday, CoreWeave told analysts it expects to keep parent-level debt financing under $5 billion through 2027. During the quarter, Nebius said it raised $5.75 billion in debt financing.

"Capital markets have been unsettled lately," CEO Arkady Volozh said on a conference call with analysts. "Two questions are being asked our whole industry, how fast can AI build-out happen, and who will pay for it? These are important questions. The way I think about it is simple. The demand for AI is real and substantial. Everything else, like building the capacity and financing it, is just a task. Tasks can be hard, but they all can be solved."

The political backdrop has created further volatility as Nebius races rivals to open up new data centers. Last week U.S. voters supported dozens of ballot initiatives to restrict the development of such facilities, while Democrats won sweeping victories in both houses of Congress.
