Nebius stock: Capacity delays cloud 2026 outlook as spending rises

- Third-party capacity delays shift part of Nebius' expected revenue into 2027 while the underlying contracts remain in place.
- The company is increasing infrastructure spending and plans to rely heavily on customer prepayments and asset-backed financing.
- Investors are focused on whether new capacity arrives on schedule and supports the company's growth targets.
Nebius Group reported its third-quarter results on Thursday, November 12, alongside a lower 2026 revenue outlook and much higher infrastructure spending plans. Reuters reported that delays at third-party sites pushed some capacity expected this year into the first half of 2027, while the contracts supporting that capacity remain in place.
Nebius stock traded at 102.57 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 16:02 CET on Friday, November 13, 2026, 10.89% below the 115.10 euro quote in the earlier report published the same day. This move since that report is separate from the company's operating outlook.
Capacity timing moves into focus
According to Reuters, Nebius now expects 2026 revenue of 3.0 billion to 3.2 billion US dollars, trimming the upper end of its previous 3.4 billion US dollar range. The company said the delay affects the timing of revenue recognition rather than the existence of customer commitments.
Chief Executive Arkady Volozh said Nebius' own facilities under development were on track or ahead of schedule, while third-party sites were running behind. Management expects 2027 revenue of 12 billion to 13 billion US dollars and targets pre-tax break-even by the end of that year.
Investment needs rise sharply
Nebius lifted its 2026 spending forecast to about 27 billion US dollars from a previous range of 20 billion to 25 billion US dollars. The company expects to spend 40 billion to 45 billion US dollars in 2027.
Customer prepayments and asset-backed financing linked to existing contracts are expected to cover roughly 75% to 85% of the 2027 investment plan. For investors, the central issue is whether financing and construction progress remain aligned closely enough for contracted demand to become billable capacity.
