Nebius Stock Surged Over 200% in One Year Amid Strong AI Infrastructure Growth
Nebius Group (NBIS) has seen its stock surge over 200% within a year, driven by strong financial performance and growing demand for artificial intelligence infrastructure. In Q2 alone, revenue jumped 454% to $582 million with adjusted EBITDA reaching $236 million. The company signed four AI cloud contracts worth more than $1 billion each and is valued at around $60 billion. Nebius provides the computing power needed for building and running large-scale AI models, primarily through high-performance Nvidia GPUs in data centers. Management expects full-year 2026 revenue between $3 billion to $3.4 billion with annual recurring revenue of up to $9 billion. The company has secured over $40 billion in customer commitments. Despite the strong growth and improving capital efficiency—reducing infrastructure payback periods from two to three years down to about one year and 10 months—the stock's valuation remains high, trading at a price-to-sales ratio of around 18 times. This raises concerns over potential oversupply in AI computing power as more companies build data centers.
