On July 14, DigitalOcean Holdings declined 5.02% in regular trading, trading at $123.86 per share, with turnover of $118 million.
On the news front, UBS recently cut its price target on DigitalOcean from $175 to $155 while maintaining a Neutral rating. The firm noted that the company's better-than-expected preliminary Q2 results were tied to positive business momentum rather than any material structural change. UBS highlighted that the sequential revenue jump suggests DigitalOcean's Richmond facility, which came online in March, is now running near full capacity, while the newly launched Kansas City data center's ramp will be the key swing factor for Q3 revenue.
DigitalOcean had pre-announced Q2 revenue growth of approximately 29% year over year on July 7, with remaining performance obligations expected to exceed $800 million — a more than 10-fold increase from the prior year. Despite the strong preliminary figures, the stock has given back its initial gains as the market digests UBS's view that the scale of upcoming capacity additions, rather than current momentum, remains the biggest driver of long-term earnings potential.
