Nebius Group surpassed second-quarter revenue estimates on Wednesday as booming demand for AI infrastructure and cloud services helped the company win larger contracts and raise prices for computing capacity.
The Amsterdam-based AI infrastructure firm reported total revenue of $582.3 million for the quarter ended June, compared with analysts' average estimate of $572.75 million, according to data compiled by LSEG. Revenue at its core AI cloud business, which accounted for about 98% of group revenue, rose more than 500%.
