More on Subs Growth
Called the $MDB move this morning with the subscribers — Atlas inflection is real.
Last quarter marked the first reacceleration in Atlas in 3 years & now the market is rerating MongoDB from an open-source vulnerability like $CFLT into a lifeboat in the AI tsunami.

Estimates Snapshot
- Revenue (Q2 2026): $553.6M
- EPS (Q2 2026): $0.66
- FY2026 Revenue: $2.29B
- FY2026 EPS: $3.10

Key Areas to Watch
-
Atlas consumption trajectory – Q1 saw Atlas up 26% YoY with customer adds at a record pace. Q2 guide baked in 3 extra consumption days, but April softness reminded investors of volatility. Sequential momentum is the linchpin.
-
AI integration and Voyage acquisition – Voyage embeddings (v3.5 release) cut storage costs 80% and improved accuracy. Management pitched MongoDB as a “gateway of meaning” in AI systems, combining real-time data, vector search, and embeddings. Adoption anecdotes (CSX, LG Uplus) validate this positioning.
-
Enterprise upmarket push – MongoDB is expanding deeper into Fortune 500 accounts, signing large deals and improving salesforce productivity. The strategy shift from mid-market to enterprise is beginning to show pipeline traction.
-
Profitability discipline & buyback – FY26 operating margin guide raised to 12% midpoint; $1B buyback authorized. CFO Berry stressed reallocation of spend to high-ROI areas.
-
Competitive context vs. Postgres/relational – CEO Ittycheria dismissed Snowflake/Databricks’ Postgres moves as superficial, reinforcing MongoDB’s native JSON/vector edge. How management frames this battle remains pivotal.
