Q2 2026

Snowflake's AI products drive growth reacceleration and raised guidance

  • Cortex Code AI drives fastest-ever product adoption Snowflake's new AI coding assistant, Cortex Code, is now used by over 7,100 accounts and is the fastest-adopting product in company history. It speeds up development and boosts use of Snowflake's core data platform, pushing product revenue growth to 34% and lifting the full-year outlook from 27% to 31%.

    This is the core new driver behind the raised guidance and growth reacceleration, directly lifting SNOW's price.

  • Unlimitail picks Snowflake for retail media data hub Unlimitail selected Snowflake Data Clean Rooms to power a new retail media network across 120 retail sites, 250 million shoppers, and 35+ retail partners in Europe and Latin America. This expands Snowflake's presence in privacy-preserving data collaboration, driving demand for its platform.

    A new customer win that broadens Snowflake's use cases and supports future revenue growth.

  • Cathie Wood's Ark funds buy $52 million of SNOW Cathie Wood's Ark funds initiated a $52 million position in Snowflake, signaling institutional confidence. This follows a 41% surge in the past month, driven by strong earnings and a $6 billion AWS infrastructure deal. The buying adds capital and supports the stock price.

    A notable institutional purchase that can boost investor sentiment and demand for the stock.

  • Valuation and competition remain key risks Despite the AI-driven comeback, Snowflake trades at a very high forward earnings multiple (118x) and still posts a GAAP operating loss. Analysts warn the valuation leaves little room for disappointment if competition intensifies or growth slows, capping upside potential.

    This is the main counterweight to the positive drivers, giving a fair picture of the risks that could push SNOW down.

Snowflake's AI-Driven Q2 Beat and Raised Outlook Fuel 37% Product Growth

  • AI products drive 37% product revenue growth and raised guidance Snowflake's Q2 product revenue jumped 37% to $1.49 billion, with AI tools like CoCo and CoWork contributing roughly half of the growth acceleration. Management raised full-year product revenue guidance to $6.07 billion, signaling that AI investments are converting into real sales and supporting a higher stock price.

    This is the core new event of the period: a major earnings beat and raised outlook that directly explains the stock's surge.

  • Analyst price target hikes and broad software rally After the earnings beat, analysts raised price targets, with Citigroup moving to $490 and Cantor to $405. The strong results also lifted software peers like Salesforce and ServiceNow, showing that Snowflake's success is part of a wider enterprise AI spending wave that boosts the whole sector.

    This explains the market reaction and the positive sentiment that pushed the stock up sharply after earnings.

  • GAAP losses and lower gross margin guidance temper the beat Despite strong revenue, Snowflake reported a GAAP net loss of $191 million and lowered its full-year gross margin guidance to 74% from 75%, citing lower margins from AI compute workloads. This is a real counterweight: the company is growing fast but still unprofitable, and AI workloads are less profitable than its core business.

    It provides the necessary balance, showing that the growth comes with costs that could pressure future profits.

  • New AI product CoCo and expanding partner ecosystem Snowflake launched CoCo, a coding assistant for enterprise data and AI, and highlighted clients like Sayari rebuilding on its AI Data Cloud, plus partner milestones with Optimove, Varonis, and CrowdStrike. This expands Snowflake beyond data warehousing, opening new revenue streams and deepening customer reliance on its platform.

    It shows the company is innovating and broadening its offerings, which supports long-term growth and justifies a premium valuation.

Q3 2026
▲2▼2

Snowflake's AI momentum builds, but competition and costs bite

  • Analyst endorsements and AWS deal fuel optimism Analysts turned more positive on Snowflake, and a $6 billion AWS infrastructure deal reinforced confidence in its AI-driven growth. This helped push product revenue growth to 30–37% and lifted full-year guidance to $6.07 billion.

    It shows a key positive force: analyst support and a major cloud partnership that boosted growth expectations.

  • New AI integrations for regulated industries expand market Snowflake rolled out new AI integrations tailored for regulated industries like finance and healthcare. This opens up new customer segments and strengthens its competitive position in specialized, compliance-heavy markets.

    It highlights a new growth avenue: targeting regulated sectors with AI tools to drive adoption.

  • Databricks' massive funding intensifies competition Databricks raised $188 billion, giving it more resources to compete aggressively. This heightens pressure on Snowflake, especially as hedge fund ownership dropped from 90 to 80 funds and short interest rose to 6.65%.

    It captures a major competitive threat and signs of waning investor confidence that could weigh on the stock.

  • Profitability pressured by AI compute costs and dilution Snowflake posted a $191 million GAAP net loss and lowered gross margin guidance to 74% from 75% due to less profitable AI compute workloads. The CEO's $448 million pay package also raised dilution concerns.

    It shows a key counterweight: despite strong growth, profitability and shareholder dilution remain significant risks.

Snowflake Raises US$3.75 Billion in Zero-Coupon Convertible Notes

Snowflake completed private offerings of zero-coupon, senior unsecured convertible notes totaling US$3.75 billion in late September 2026, split between maturities in 2029 and 2031 under Rule 144A. Alongside the financing, Liquibase announced the availability of Liquibase Secure on Snowflake Marketplace, a third-party tool that helps customers automate and govern data-related changes. The zero-interest convertible raise is seen mainly as affecting near-term debate around dilution and balance sheet risk rather than Snowflake's core thesis, while the Liquibase launch reinforces the company's push to sit at the center of governed, auditable data change. Snowflake's narrative projects $11.9 billion in revenue and $202.2 million in earnings by 2029, with a fair value estimate of $425.19, a 30% upside to its current price. Some of the lowest-estimate analysts assume about 23 percent annual revenue growth but no profits within three years, a picture that could shift if the fresh zero-coupon debt and potential dilution reshape expectations.

Snowflake Plans $3.5 Billion Zero-Coupon Convertible Notes Offering

Snowflake plans a private offering of US$3.5b in 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 and 2031, to be sold to qualified institutional buyers in two series. The company intends to use the proceeds for note repurchases, potential investments, and capped call transactions that may limit share dilution. The zero coupon structure gives Snowflake extra capital without adding ongoing interest expense, a consideration for a business still working toward sustained profitability. The other side of the trade is future dilution risk if the converts are ultimately exchanged into equity, especially with analysts already expecting shares outstanding to climb. Snowflake runs a cloud-based data platform used by organizations that store, process, and share large volumes of information across different clouds, and competes with Microsoft, Amazon and Google.

Snowflake Raises Fiscal 2027 Product Revenue Guidance to $6.07 Billion

Snowflake raised its fiscal 2027 product revenue guidance to $6.07 billion, implying 36% year-over-year growth, up from its previous outlook of $5.84 billion and 31% growth. In the fiscal second quarter 2026, product revenues rose 37% to $1.49 billion and accounted for 96% of total revenues. Management said AI products contributed roughly half of the recent acceleration, with CoCo surpassing 9,100 accounts after adding more than 2,000 in the quarter and CoWork expanding to 5,800 accounts, up nearly 11% sequentially. The company ended the second quarter of fiscal 2027 with 14,554 total customers, up 32% year over year, including 828 customers generating more than $1 million in trailing 12-month product revenues, up 27%, and 65 customers above $10 million. Fiscal third-quarter product revenues are expected between $1.588 billion and $1.593 billion, indicating 37-38% growth, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal 2027 earnings stands at $2.19 per share, up 11.16% over the past 30 days.

Snowflake Earns Zacks Rank #2 as Earnings Estimates Climb

Snowflake Inc. is drawing heightened investor attention after Zacks Investment Research highlighted sharply rising earnings estimates for the data-warehousing company. For the current quarter, Snowflake is expected to post earnings of $0.60 per share, a change of +71.4% from the year-ago quarter, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has moved +17.5% over the last 30 days. For the current fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $2.19 points to a change of +75.2% from the prior year, and for the next fiscal year the consensus estimate of $2.84 indicates a change of +29.6%. On revenue, the consensus sales estimate for the current quarter of $1.64 billion indicates a year-over-year change of +35.5%, with current and next fiscal year estimates of $6.29 billion and $8 billion pointing to changes of +34.2% and +27.3%, respectively. In its last reported quarter, Snowflake posted revenues of $1.55 billion, a year-over-year change of +35.1%, and EPS of $0.62 versus $0.35 a year ago, beating the Zacks Consensus revenue estimate of $1.47 billion by +4.91% and the EPS estimate by +37.78%. Citing the size of the recent change in the consensus estimate along with three other earnings-related factors, Zacks rates Snowflake Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), though the stock carries a Zacks Value Style Score of F, indicating it trades at a premium to its peers.

Snowflake Posts Higher Q2 Sales, Completes $3.7 Billion Buyback, Raises Full-Year Guidance

Snowflake reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 results showing higher sales of US$1,546.79 million and a reduced net loss of US$191.72 million, while also completing a US$3,697.59 million share repurchase program that retired 25,378,000 shares. Management attributed the stronger performance to growing adoption of its AI offerings, including CoCo and CoWork, and raised full-year fiscal 2027 product revenue and operating margin guidance, signaling increased confidence in demand for AI-driven workloads. The company's narrative projects $11.7 billion revenue and $172.1 million earnings by 2029, requiring 29.1% yearly revenue growth and about a $1.3 billion earnings increase from -$1.1 billion today. The most optimistic analysts had already assumed revenue could reach about US$11.8 billion by 2029, so the acceleration in AI workloads could either support that upside case or expose how dependent the story is on aggressive assumptions. Sayari's decision to rebuild its Commercial World Model on Snowflake using CoCo was cited as a concrete example of how AI workloads can deepen usage on the platform.

Snowflake Lifts Fiscal 2027 Product Revenue Target to $6.07 Billion on AI-Driven Quarter

Snowflake raised its fiscal 2027 product revenue target to $6.07 billion from $5.84 billion after second-quarter product revenue rose 37% to $1.49 billion, with CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy saying AI products drove roughly half of that growth acceleration. UBS analyst Karl Keirstead said the figures, alongside rapid growth at Palantir and Databricks, offered compelling proof of robust enterprise AI adoption. The beat lifted enterprise software broadly, with ServiceNow, Atlassian, Adobe, Intuit and Salesforce all up 3.5% to 6% the next day and the iShares Expanded Tech-Software ETF up 3%. Salesforce's own move came a week earlier, when its second-quarter fiscal 2027 results showed revenue of $11.35 billion, up 11% year over year, current remaining performance obligations up 14% to $33.5 billion and adjusted EPS of $5.90 against a $3.27 consensus, though $2.61 billion in net gains on strategic investments added $2.53 per share to non-GAAP EPS. Salesforce also announced Claudeforce with Anthropic, a partnership that initially brings Salesforce data, workflows and business logic into Claude through a plugin with 37 prebuilt sales skills, with further integrations planned across Claude, Salesforce and Slack.

AI Gold Rush Era Brings Chain of Positive Impacts

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has begun to generate real applications and revenue at the enterprise level, creating a chain of positive impacts from software and cloud to semiconductors. Yuanta Securities noted that AI adoption is transforming software costs into cloud revenue, with companies like Snowflake, Salesforce, and ServiceNow benefiting from AI agents, while NVIDIA is expanding its moat by controlling the source through Hugging Face. However, SEMICON Taiwan 2026 highlighted bottlenecks, such as TSMC's demand for chip-making equipment nearly doubling in six months, and memory issues that forced Google to reuse DDR4. The Asian supply chain is fully benefiting, with South Korea's semiconductor exports surging 209% year-over-year. Earnings from Dell, Broadcom, Snowflake, Credo, and Palo Alto Networks reflect strong demand, such as Dell's record-high AI server orders at $60.9 billion and Broadcom's AI revenue growing 221%.

Snowflake's Growth Accelerates but Valuation Risk Rises

Snowflake Inc. reported fiscal second-quarter product revenue of $1.49 billion, up 37% year over year, and total revenue of $1.55 billion, up 35%, sending shares up 17%. Adjusted earnings of $0.62 per share beat the $0.45 consensus estimate, marking the third consecutive quarter of accelerating product-revenue growth. CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy attributed about half of the acceleration to AI, with the CoCo coding assistant now used by over 9,100 accounts. Net revenue retention stood at 126%, and remaining performance obligations reached $9 billion, while the number of clients spending over $1 million annually rose to 828. Management raised full-year product revenue guidance to $6.07 billion from $5.84 billion, implying about 36% growth. However, the stock trades at roughly 152 times consensus fiscal 2027 adjusted earnings, and even based on fiscal 2030 estimates of $5.86 per share, it is about 58 times earnings nearly four years out, leaving little room for disappointment.

Snowflake Surges 16.6% While C3.ai Gains 3.6% After Earnings

Snowflake and C3.ai both reported earnings after the September 2 close, but Snowflake's stock jumped 16.6% the next day while C3.ai gained only about 3.6%, highlighting a stark contrast in AI demand. Snowflake's fiscal second-quarter product revenue reached $1.49 billion, up 37%, with remaining performance obligations rising 30% to $9.0 billion and net revenue retention at 126%. The company also reported over 9,100 accounts using its CoCo coding agent and 5,800 using its CoWork enterprise agent, indicating AI is expanding consumption on its data platform. In contrast, C3.ai reported $52.4 million in revenue, positive free cash flow of $2.1 million, and a non-GAAP operating loss of $36.2 million, which improved 33% sequentially, but revenue still fell roughly 25% year over year. C3.ai's bookings rose 73% from the prior quarter, yet its short interest stood at 42.14% of float as of August 14, reflecting a structural bearish overhang. Snowflake's AI adoption is already scaling its consumption engine, while C3.ai must restore revenue growth and sustain margins to gain similar confidence.

Snowflake Unveils CoCo Coding Assistant in AI Software Push

Snowflake also cited new partner milestones with Optimove, Varonis, and CrowdStrike as concrete examples of the AI Data Cloud being used for complex, data-heavy applications. The company's fiscal 2027 product revenue guidance stands at US$6,070 million, with third-quarter 2027 guidance of US$1,588 million to US$1,593 million, and investors are watching whether expanding AI use cases feed through to the top line. Snowflake has a market cap of $118.8 billion.

Snowflake also added 692 net new customers, a 32% increase, and saw its net revenue retention reach 126%, with remaining performance obligations totaling $9 billion, up 30% year over year. Jefferies analyst Brent Thill raised the price target to $430 from $385, citing rapid AI adoption and potential for further re-rating.

Salesforce Rises 2.75% as Snowflake Signals Strong Enterprise AI Spending

Salesforce climbed to $264 on Thursday, gaining 2.75%, after Snowflake's stronger outlook signaled that enterprise AI spending is becoming real. Snowflake's quarterly product revenue surged 37%, with AI driving roughly half of its recent growth acceleration, according to Reuters. Salesforce is building its own AI capabilities, with second-quarter revenue jumping 11% to $11.3 billion and current remaining performance obligations up 14% to $33.5 billion. Its Agentforce and Data 360 annual recurring revenue approached $3.9 billion, including over $1.5 billion from Agentforce. Despite trading 22.13% below its GF Value of $339.05, Salesforce's combined AI-and-data run rate equals about 8.6% of annualized quarterly revenue, but the company must still prove it can capture similar budgets.

Dow Rises 635 Points on Fed Rate-Hold Hopes

U.S. stocks climbed Thursday as investors grew hopeful the Federal Reserve would leave interest rates unchanged at its next meeting, following remarks from Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller. The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 635 points, or 1.2%, according to CNBC, which noted the move would mark the index's strongest single-session performance since Aug. 4. The S&P 500 added 1% and the Nasdaq Composite climbed 1.3%. The rally came after Waller said he would be inclined to support holding rates steady, so long as upcoming inflation data did not produce surprises. The 10-year Treasury yield fell to around 4.75% after his remarks, pulling back from its highest level since November 2023. The share of fed funds futures traders pricing in a rate hike at the central bank's meeting in a couple of weeks fell to 50.4% after Waller's statement, down from 63.2% a day earlier, according to CNBC, citing the CME FedWatch tool. A rise in the Japanese yen also contributed to the drop in Treasury yields, with the yen trading 2% stronger against the dollar at 155.36. The broad S&P 500 rally included all but two of its sectors, with consumer stocks leading gains. Snowflake stock surged more than 20% after the company topped second-quarter earnings and revenue estimates and offered an upbeat outlook. Broadcom stock fell 4% after the company paired its latest quarterly results with a fiscal fourth-quarter revenue forecast that fell short of what analysts had anticipated. Oil prices continued their climb, with West Texas Intermediate crude futures trading 0.5% higher at above $91 per barrel and Brent futures above $95, as tensions in the Middle East outweighed comments from President Donald Trump that he did not expect recent U.S.-Iran fighting to last long.

Snowflake Surges 24% on Strong Results, Lifting Software Peers

Snowflake shares surged 24% in premarket trading after its second-quarter results beat analyst expectations, with adjusted earnings of 62 cents per share on revenue of $1.55 billion, surpassing the LSEG consensus of 45 cents and $1.48 billion, and the company raised its full-year product revenue guidance. The rally lifted software peers, with Datadog jumping over 5%, ServiceNow up 3%, and Salesforce rising 1.5%. In other moves, Hewlett Packard Enterprise slipped 3% after forecasting earnings growth of 16% to 20% for fiscal 2027, below the FactSet consensus of 18.7%, while Broadcom lost 2.5% as its fourth-quarter revenue forecast of $34.8 billion missed the $35.03 billion estimate. Campbell's Company fell nearly 7% on weak fiscal 2027 guidance, and Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical plunged over 46% after its Angelman syndrome drug failed a Phase 3 trial. On the upside, Petco jumped almost 9% on better-than-expected margins, Argan popped 7.5% on strong earnings, Five Below rose 4.5% on a beat, and Netskope gained 12% on upbeat revenue guidance, while Victoria's Secret sank over 18% on a revenue miss and NetApp shed 8% on soft deferred revenue.

Sayari Rebuilds Commercial World Model on Snowflake

Sayari has selected Snowflake to rebuild its Commercial World Model, turning over a decade of primary-source data—12 billion records from 715 sources across 250 jurisdictions—into an AI-ready foundation. The rebuild makes readable up to 75% of Sayari's archive that earlier technology could not capture, and is expected to cut data infrastructure costs by more than 50%. Sayari's archive includes roughly 1 billion original documents, such as corporate filings and shipping records, often the only accessible form of deep web data. The move, accelerated by Snowflake's AI coding assistant CoCo, will enable deeper risk detection and new intelligence products later this year, according to Chief Product Officer Jessie Abell.

10-Year Treasury Yield Hits Highest Since 2023

U.S. stock futures fell Wednesday as the 10-year Treasury yield climbed to its highest level in nearly three years, with rising oil prices adding to inflation concerns. The yield reached 4.814% intraday, its highest since November 2023, while Dow futures slipped 66 points, S&P 500 futures lost 0.2%, and Nasdaq 100 futures fell 0.6%. West Texas Intermediate crude surpassed $90 per barrel, a level not seen since late July, following U.S. military strikes against Iran, and Brent crude stood at $94.62, about $20 above pre-conflict levels. Bond yields rose globally, with Germany's 10-year yield at 3.39%, potentially its highest close in 15 years, and borrowing costs in France and Japan also drifted higher. Overseas equities fell broadly, with Japan's Nikkei down 2.85%, South Korea's Kospi off 4%, and European markets also weaker. Investors await ADP payrolls, factory orders, the Fed's Beige Book, and earnings from Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Snowflake, and Broadcom.

Cantor Raises Snowflake Target to $405, Expects Narrower Beat

Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Thomas Blakey raised the price target on Snowflake to $405 from $282 while maintaining an Overweight rating, ahead of the company's fiscal second-quarter 2027 earnings on September 2. The firm expects another beat, but projects product revenue to exceed the guide midpoint by only 3%, a narrower margin than last quarter's 5.5% beat. Snowflake's product revenue grew 34% year-over-year to $1.3 billion in Q1, with net revenue retention at 126%, driven by AI adoption across more than 13,600 accounts and Cortex Code usage by about 7,100 accounts. Cantor notes strong CoCo adoption and core usage, but questions whether incremental AI consumption can offset customer cost optimizations. Hedge fund interest has increased, with 103 funds holding positions, up from 80 in the prior quarter.

Yuki Launches Cortex Control Center for Real-Time AI Spend Visibility

Yuki, the real-time cost optimization platform for Snowflake and BigQuery environments, has launched the Yuki Cortex Control Center, a new dashboard giving enterprises real-time visibility into what drives their Snowflake Cortex AI spend. The dashboard breaks down Cortex usage across agents, direct inference, SQL functions, Cortex Search, and coding tools—all billed from a single credit pool—down to the product, agent, user, role, or model responsible, and pairs that spend with cost and latency performance in one view. Yuki's CTO, Amir Peres, said the company is already live with the product and customer feedback is shaping the roadmap, noting that Cortex spend is becoming Snowflake's next black box. The Cortex Control Center is available now, free, to all Snowflake teams, with setup taking minutes and requiring no code changes. This launch extends Yuki's recent momentum, including partnerships with Integrate.io, joining the AWS ISV Accelerate program, and a 14-day free trial, alongside its listings on the Snowflake Marketplace and AWS Marketplace.

Snowflake Q2 Earnings Preview: Buy, Sell, or Hold?

Snowflake is set to release its second-quarter fiscal 2027 results on September 2, with the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings steady at 45 cents per share, up 28.57% year over year, and revenues pegged at $1.47 billion, up 28.77%. The company has beaten estimates in all trailing four quarters, with an average surprise of 21.98%. Snowflake's expanding clientele, driven by strong AI capabilities like Snowflake Intelligence and Cortex Code, is expected to boost top-line growth, with product revenues guided between $1.415 billion and $1.42 billion, representing about 30% growth. However, the stock trades at a premium valuation, with a forward Price/Sales of 16.32X versus the industry's 4.08X, and faces margin pressures and competition. Despite these concerns, Snowflake's shares have surged 49.5% year to date, outperforming the sector, and the company carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), suggesting investors should consider accumulating the stock ahead of the earnings release.

Snowflake's Product Revenue Surge Strengthens Competitive Position

Snowflake is benefiting from accelerating product revenue growth, rising AI adoption, and expanding consumption of its AI Data Cloud, which strengthens its position against Dell Technologies and Oracle. In the first quarter of fiscal 2027, product revenues rose 34% year over year to $1.33 billion, marking the strongest sequential dollar growth on record. Growth is fueled by AI offerings like Cortex Code and Snowflake Intelligence, with the latter's accounts more than doubling sequentially and Cortex Code used across over 7,100 accounts. The company added 616 net new customers in the quarter, up 38% year over year, including 13 new Global 2000 clients, and now serves 13,912 customers with a net revenue retention rate of 126%. Snowflake raised its fiscal 2027 product revenue guidance to $5.84 billion, implying 31% growth, and expects second-quarter product revenues between $1.415 billion and $1.42 billion. Meanwhile, Dell Technologies reported record revenues of $43.8 billion in the same quarter, up 88% year over year, with AI server revenues reaching $16.1 billion and an AI backlog of $51.3 billion, while Oracle introduced Oracle OPERA Cloud Assistant in June 2026. Snowflake shares have gained 43.8% year to date, outperforming the broader sector's 15.4% appreciation, and the Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal 2027 earnings is $1.97 per share, indicating a 57.60% year-over-year increase.

Nebius Drops 4% After Pricing $5 Billion Convertible Note

Nebius Group stock fell 4% to $214.80 midday Thursday after pricing a $5 billion convertible note offering overnight, dragging Cloudflare down 3% to $282.75 and Snowflake down 2% to $319.85 on dilution read-through fears. The deal was upsized from $4.5 billion and comprises $3 billion of 0.5% notes due 2030 and $2 billion of 4.5% notes due 2034, with expected net proceeds of $4.94 billion. Nebius also agreed to exchange $400 million of 2% notes due 2029 and $400 million of 3% notes due 2031 with a limited group of holders, who will receive 15.8 million Class A shares. CoreWeave stock held near its range, down only 1% to $89.68, confirming the drop is issuer-specific rather than a broad cloud rotation. The three sliding names gained anywhere from 48% to 167% year-to-date before today, making this a crowded-winner pullback that investors with narrow cloud exposure should expect to repeat.

Palantir and Snowflake reported contrasting quarterly results that highlight their different positions in the enterprise AI market. Palantir's revenue surged 84.7% year-over-year, driven by a 133% jump in U.S. commercial revenue to $595 million and an 84% increase in U.S. government revenue to $687 million, while CEO Alex Karp noted its Rule of 40 score reached 145%, a level he said only NVIDIA, Micron, and SK hynix have matched. Snowflake posted 33.5% revenue growth with product revenue of $1.33 billion, net revenue retention of 126%, and remaining performance obligations up 38% to $9.21 billion, as Cortex Code surpassed 7,100 accounts and Snowflake Intelligence accounts more than doubled sequentially. Palantir generated $925 million in free cash flow and raised its full-year revenue guidance to between $7.65 billion and $7.66 billion, while Snowflake continued to invest heavily through a $6 billion multi-year AWS agreement, an OpenAI partnership, and acquisitions, resulting in a GAAP operating loss of $326 million but an improved non-GAAP operating margin guidance of 13.5%. Year-to-date, Palantir shares have fallen 30.77% amid a price-to-earnings ratio near 174 and insider selling, whereas Snowflake shares have risen 33.7% with 44 buy ratings against 6 holds.

Palantir Stock Falls 40% but Revenue Growth Accelerates to 85%

Palantir Technologies shares have dropped 40% from their November peak near $207 to around $122, yet the company's financials show accelerating momentum with first-quarter 2026 revenue up 85% to $1.63 billion and net dollar retention reaching 150%. Full-year 2026 guidance was raised to $7.65 billion, implying 71% growth, while gross margins held at about 84% and U.S. commercial revenue surged 133%. Critics have labeled Palantir an LLM wrapper, but its core differentiator remains the Ontology, a governed framework that integrates enterprise data, business logic, and real-world operations in ways competitors struggle to replicate. UBS analysts pushed back on the wrapper narrative after AIPCon, citing data integration and governance advantages that current frontier models lack on their own. Even after the sell-off, the stock trades at 130 to 140 times trailing earnings with a price-to-sales ratio of 56, leaving little room for missteps as rivals like Databricks and Snowflake intensify competition.

Snowflake Raises Guidance on Early AI Product Traction

Snowflake raised its guidance after seeing enough traction with one of its early AI products to attribute the increase specifically to that product, according to Spyglass Capital Management's second-quarter investor letter. The cloud data platform company exceeded consensus expectations for both revenue and earnings in its first-quarter results. Spyglass noted that Snowflake's long-term potential remains misunderstood by most investors, and while the firm trimmed its position due to share price appreciation, Snowflake remains a core holding. Snowflake shares closed at $298.10 on July 30, 2026, with a one-month return of 14.59% and a 52-week gain of 45.40%, giving it a market capitalization of $103.32 billion.
