About Akamai

Akamai operates a content delivery network, which entails locating servers at the edges of networks so its customers, which store content on Akamai servers, can reach their own customers faster, more securely, and with better quality. Akamai has over 325,000 servers distributed over 4,100 points of presence in more than 1,000 cities worldwide. The firm also offers security and cloud computing for its customers, and those businesses have grown to be bigger than the legacy CDN.

Bulls say / Bears say

Akamai’s Cloud Infrastructure Services revenue surged 30% year-over-year to $71 million in Q2 2025, and management expects the segment to accelerate toward a $300 million annual run rate, highlighting robust adoption of its distributed cloud offerings (Reuters )
Akamai’s security segment grew 8% year-over-year to $531 million in Q1 2025, accounting for roughly 52% of total revenue, demonstrating resilient demand for its cybersecurity solutions amid rising enterprise security spend (Reuters )
Following strong Q2 results, Akamai raised its full-year 2025 guidance to $4.14 billion–$4.21 billion in revenue and $6.60–$6.80 in non-GAAP EPS, underscoring management’s confidence in sustained growth from its security and cloud businesses (Reuters )
Akamai’s outlook points to softer demand, with Q1 revenue guidance of $1.00 billion–$1.02 billion versus Street estimates of $1.05 billion and full-year 2025 revenue guidance of $4.00 billion–$4.20 billion below consensus of $4.26 billion (Reuters )
S&P Global revised Akamai’s credit outlook to negative, citing a rise in leverage to 1.8× at the end of 2024—well above the 1.5× threshold for its BBB+ rating—raising refinancing and rating downgrade risks (Reuters )
Slowing traffic growth and cost optimization by a major social-media customer have pressured Akamai’s sales, with management noting these headwinds alongside forecast cuts, underscoring macro and client-specific risks to its CDN business (Reuters )
