Key Takeaways

  • MongoDB expects Q2 revenues of $548M-$553M, up about 22% at the midpoint year over year.
  • MongoDB expects non-GAAP EPS between 62-66 cents, with Zacks consensus holding at 64 cents, down 8.6% YoY.
  • MDB anticipates solid Atlas demand, but expects non-Atlas revenues to face macro and competitive headwinds.

MongoDB (MDB - Free Report) is slated to release second-quarter fiscal 2026 results on Aug. 26. The company expects second-quarter fiscal 2026 revenues between $548 million and $553 million, indicating approximately 22% year-over-year growth at the midpoint. This guidance reflects continued confidence in Atlas consumption trends while accounting for anticipated timing differences in the enterprise agreement business following stronger-than-expected first-quarter performance in that segment. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the top line is currently pegged at $551.05 million, indicating growth of 15.26% from the year-ago quarter.

Non-GAAP earnings per share are expected in the range of 62 to 66 cents. The consensus mark for earnings has remained steady at 64 cents per share over the past 30 days, indicating a decline of 8.57% year over year.

Let’s see how things have shaped up for this announcement.

Factors to Consider

MongoDB entered the second quarter of fiscal 2026 with strong momentum, following a first quarter that delivered 26% Atlas revenue growth and the highest net customer additions in six years. The company is expected to have benefited from continued platform adoption across enterprises and startups. Its upmarket focus with larger enterprises likely supported deal sizes and sales efficiency, while the self-serve channel continued to expand, driving efficient mid-market customer acquisition.

Product initiatives during the period were still in the early stages of rollout. MongoDB introduced new Voyage AI embedding models and launched the Model Context Protocol Server in public preview, extending integrations with tools such as GitHub Copilot and Anthropic Claude. These moves strengthened MongoDB’s positioning in AI-driven applications but are expected to have had a limited near-term financial impact on the second quarter performance.

However, several headwinds may have influenced results for the to-be-reported quarter. Non-Atlas revenue categories are expected to have shown modest year-over-year declines, reflecting weaker momentum outside Atlas. Consumption trends exhibited some volatility, with softness at the start of the quarter. Broader macroeconomic uncertainty may have shaped customer spending patterns negatively. Customer decisions may also have been affected by heightened competition, as established database vendors expanded JSON functionality.
