SAN RAMON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 30, 2026--
Grid Dynamics Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: GDYN) ("Grid Dynamics" or the "Company"), a leader in enterprise-level AI and digital transformation, today announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Second Quarter 2026 Revenues Performance
We are pleased to report second quarter 2026 revenues of $108.2 million, slightly above the high end of our guidance range of $106.0 million to $108.0 million that we provided in April 2026.
Our Technology, Media and Telecom ("TMT") vertical was our principal growth driver, representing 31.8% of the second quarter revenues. TMT revenues increased 36.4% year-over-year, and 11.7% sequentially, driven by strong demand from our largest technology customers. Retail remained our second-largest vertical, contributing 26.5% of total revenues for the second quarter of 2026 driven by robust demand from key accounts. The Finance vertical contributed 22.9% of the second quarter revenues, supported by ongoing demand from our financial services engagements. Our Consumer Packaged Goods ("CPG") and Manufacturing vertical represented 10.9% of quarterly revenues and increased 2.1% sequentially. Lastly, the Healthcare and Pharma, and Other verticals contributed 1.9% and 6.0% of the total second quarter revenues, respectively.
"We delivered another solid quarter. Revenue came in above the high end of our guidance range. AI revenue crossed 30% of total company revenue for the first time and grew over 50% year-over-year for a second consecutive quarter. Our AI-based GAIN platforms are winning wider enterprise adoption as clients transition enterprise AI workloads from pilots to production. Our top accounts continue to drive our growth. Several of them delivered double-digit quarter-over-quarter growth. Additionally, Technology and Financial services verticals now define our most strategic customer relationships. These are precisely the sectors where AI adoption is moving the fastest and where our capabilities are the most differentiated. We also strengthened our Physical AI capabilities with the addition of Ekumen, giving us end-to-end depth from robotics software through enterprise-scale deployment.
Margin expansion continues to be a top priority. Productivity gains from AI-Native Delivery are showing up in our results. So is disciplined cost-control execution. Our second quarter performance, and our third quarter outlook, confirm we are on track to deliver our 300 basis point margin commitment," said Leonard Livschitz, Chief Executive Officer.

Grid Dynamics is not able, at this time, to provide GAAP targets for net income/(loss) for the third quarter of 2026 because of the difficulty of estimating certain items excluded from Non-GAAP EBITDA that cannot be reasonably predicted, such as interest income, taxes, other income/(expenses), fair-value adjustments, geographic reorganization expenses, restructuring expenses, transaction-related costs and charges related to stock-based compensation expense. The effect of these excluded items may be significant.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the financial measures presented in this Grid Dynamics press release in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), the Company also presents non-GAAP measures of financial performance.
A "non-GAAP financial measure" refers to a numerical measure of Grid Dynamics historical or future financial performance or financial position that is included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Grid Dynamics provides certain non-GAAP measures as additional information relating to its operating results as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a measure of liquidity and profitability.
Grid Dynamics has included these non-GAAP financial measures because they are financial measures used by Grid Dynamics' management to evaluate Grid Dynamics' core operating performance and trends, to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments and are among the factors analyzed in making performance-based compensation decisions for key personnel.
Grid Dynamics believes the use of non-GAAP financial measures, as a supplement to GAAP measures, is useful to investors in that they eliminate items that are either not part of core operations or do not require a cash outlay, such as stock-based compensation expense. Grid Dynamics believes these non-GAAP measures provide investors and other users of its financial information consistency and comparability with its past financial performance and facilitate period to period comparisons of operations. Grid Dynamics believes these non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating its operating performance compared to that of other companies in its industry, as they generally eliminate the effects of certain items that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.
There are significant limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Further, these measures may differ from the non-GAAP information, even where similarly titled, used by other companies and therefore should not be used to compare our performance to that of other companies. Grid Dynamics compensates for these limitations by providing investors and other users of its financial information a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the related GAAP financial measures. Grid Dynamics encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view its non-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures. Please see the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures attached to this release.
