Management introduced FY2026 guidance of $12 billion to $13 billion in revenue, about 140% growth at the midpoint, alongside 2026 CAPEX of $30 billion to $35 billion, and guided Q1 2026 to a margin trough. Management framed the elevated spend as success-based investment fully supported by signed contracts.
