Did IOT Beat Earnings? Q2 2026 Results
Samsara delivered a standout second quarter for fiscal 2026, with <a href="https://247wallst.com/investing/2025/09/04/live-is-samsara-iot-ready-to-jump-post-earnings-tonight/">investors watching closely</a> ahead of results that ultimately sent shares up roughly 14%. The connected operations platform posted revenue of $391.48 million, up 30.4% year over year and ahead of the $372.22 million consensus by 5.17%, while non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.12 topped the $0.07 estimate by 65.52%. The clearest driver behind the beat was a dramatic expansion in operating leverage: non-GAAP operating margin reached 15%, up from 6% a year ago, as the company's growing enterprise customer base, those with ARR above $100,000 now number 2,771 and collectively generate roughly $1.00 billion in ARR, absorbed costs at scale. Annual recurring revenue reached $1.64 billion, also up 30% year over year. Looking ahead, Samsara raised its full-year FY2026 revenue outlook to $1.57 billion to $1.58 billion with a 15% non-GAAP operating margin, while Q3 guidance calls for revenue of $398 million to $400 million and EPS of $0.11 to $0.12.
