On July 13, Rackspace Technology fell 9.18% in regular trading, trading at $4.755/share, with turnover of $18.85 million. The decline reflects ongoing pressure from the company's previously disclosed Q2 preliminary results and financing plan.
Rackspace reported preliminary Q2 adjusted loss per share of $0.08 to $0.11, significantly worse than the analyst consensus estimate of $0.06. The company simultaneously cut its full-year revenue guidance from $2.6-$2.7 billion to $2.45-$2.55 billion, well below the market expectation of $2.65 billion, citing GPU supply constraints and strategic resource reallocation. Additionally, the company announced a $250 million at-the-market equity offering to fund its enterprise AI expansion, raising shareholder dilution concerns.
Although shares rebounded over 22% in the prior session after RBC Capital Markets highlighted potential for $450-$600 million in annual AI revenue by 2028, the technical bounce proved short-lived as core headwinds from earnings deterioration and equity dilution reasserted themselves. Sector peer CoreWeave declined 4.33%, reflecting broader industry weakness.
