DigitalOcean Holdings has strong revenue and profit growth, with solid cash flow generation, but faces significant financial stability risks due to negative equity and high leverage. Technical indicators suggest a bearish trend, and the stock is relatively overvalued. Positive strategic initiatives, particularly in AI, and a strengthened financial position are offset by uncertainties and challenges in specific sectors.

We believe the negative share-price reaction to DigitalOcean's earnings is a function of: (1) Net-New ARR disappointing expectations, particularly for Core DigitalOcean which was essentially unchanged yr-yr by our math; (2) management commentary indicating NDR is likely to remain ~99%-100% over the rest of CY25, despite comps significantly easing in the the evolution of DigitalOcean's capital strategy. On this latter point, we are grappling with the implications behind the company's need to have a greater amount of capacity available ahead of demand since both the capital structure and margin structure are likely impacted (i.e. is there a headwind to margins as DigitalOcean builds under-utilized infrastructure ahead of long-term commitments). We also see the market digesting the ~6% interest rate for the DDTL.
