    NEW YORK, March 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MongoDB, Inc. (NASDAQ:MDB) today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter ended January 31, 2026.

    MongoDB

    "We delivered strong fourth quarter results driven by our continued go-to-market execution and the broad-based demand we are seeing across our product lines, as customers deploy additional elements of the MongoDB platform. At the same time, we significantly outperformed on operating margin, achieving a rule of 40 performance and demonstrating we can drive durable revenue growth while simultaneously expanding margin," said CJ Desai, President and Chief Executive Officer of MongoDB.

    "Whether it's AI & digital natives looking for a highly performant solution that dynamically scales, a large enterprise looking for multi-cloud resiliency for their mission critical applications, or a customer seeking an integrated offering for AI agents with features such as search, vector search and embeddings in a single intelligent data layer, customers are excited about the strength of the MongoDB platform, the innovations we have been bringing to market, and plan to deliver in the years to come."

    Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2026 Financial Highlights

    • Revenue: Total revenue was $695.1 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, an increase of 27% year-over-year. Subscription revenue was $673.1 million, an increase of 27% year-over-year, and services revenue was $22.0 million, an increase of 26% year-over-year.
    • Gross Profit: Gross profit was $507.7 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, representing a 73% gross margin compared to 73% in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP gross profit was $524.7 million, representing a 75% non-GAAP gross margin, compared to a non-GAAP gross margin of 75% in the year-ago period.
    • Income (Loss) from Operations: Income from operations was $0.3 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to a loss from operations of $18.6 million in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP income from operations was $158.8 million, compared to non-GAAP income from operations of $112.5 million in the year-ago period.
    • Net Income: Net income was $15.5 million, or $0.18 per share, based on 86.5 million diluted weighted-average shares outstanding, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. This compares to a net income of $15.8 million, or $0.19 per share, in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP net income was $142.7 million, or $1.65 per share, based on 86.5 million fully diluted weighted-average shares outstanding. This compares to a non-GAAP net income of $108.4 million, or $1.28, per share in the year-ago period.
    • Cash Flow: As of January 31, 2026, MongoDB had $2.4 billion in cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash. During the three months ended January 31, 2026, MongoDB generated $179.6 million of cash from operations, compared to $50.5 million of cash from operations in the year-ago period. MongoDB used $1.1 million of cash in capital expenditures and used $1.7 million of cash in principal payments of finance leases, leading to free cash flow of $176.7 million, compared to free cash flow of $22.9 million in the year-ago period.

    A reconciliation of each non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure has been provided in the financial statement tables included at the end of this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures." 

    Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2026 and Recent Business Highlights

    • At its flagship MongoDB.local San Francisco event, MongoDB announced the integration of its core database with industry-leading embedding and reranking models from Voyage AI by MongoDB. This integration creates a unified data intelligence layer for production AI, allowing developers to build sophisticated applications at scale with reduced hallucination risk and no requirement to move or duplicate data.
    • MongoDB introduced a set of new AI capabilities designed to simplify how intelligent applications are built and operated. The launch included five new embedding models from Voyage AI by MongoDB (including the Voyage 4 series), Automated Embedding for MongoDB Community Vector Search, and new embedding and reranking AI model APIs for Atlas. Additionally, MongoDB launched an AI-powered data operations assistant for MongoDB Compass and Atlas Data Explorer.
    • MongoDB announced an expansion to its MongoDB for Startups program; a reciprocal partner ecosystem that gives AI-first startups a production-ready data foundation and integrated stack from day one. MongoDB for Startups members now represent more than $200 billion in aggregate valuation, and MongoDB is increasing its Bay Area investment to deepen engagement with high-growth AI founders and drive long-term AI workloads on MongoDB.
    • MongoDB was recognized as the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Global Technology Partner of the Year, reflecting the deep integration between MongoDB Atlas and AWS's leading AI services—including Amazon Bedrock, Amazon SageMaker, and Amazon Q—and our shared focus on helping customers modernize applications and ship production generative AI workloads faster and more efficiently.

    Leadership Update

    Effective March 3rd, 2026, Erica Volini joins MongoDB as Chief Customer Officer to accelerate the company's next phase of growth. Erica brings a rare blend of experience serving large enterprise customers and scaling partner­ led growth – from leading a multi­billion dollar practice at Deloitte to most recently scaling ServiceNow's partner ecosystem and broader GTM strategy, as the company exceeded $10 billion in annual revenue.

    MongoDB is also announcing that Cedric Pech, President of Field Operations, and Paul Capombassis, Chief Revenue Officer (CRO), are leaving MongoDB. This transition has been planned for some time, and the management team believes now is the right moment for this change. MongoDB extends the company's sincere gratitude for their contributions over the last decade, where they have been instrumental in building the foundation of the GTM engine. MongoDB has a deep bench of go-to-market talent, and the team is well-positioned to execute against its objectives without disruption. MongoDB is also in the latter stages of an executive search for a new CRO. To ensure operational continuity, Mr. Capombassis will remain as CRO through the end of the first quarter. He will serve as an advisor in the second quarter to ensure a seamless transition to the new CRO.

    Forward-Looking Statements

    This press release includes certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including statements concerning MongoDB's financial guidance for the fourth fiscal quarter and full year fiscal 2027. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts and statements identified by words such as "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "project," "will," "would" or the negative or plural of these words or similar expressions or variations. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects, which are based on the information currently available to us and on assumptions we have made. Although we believe that our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects as reflected in or suggested by those forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that the plans, intentions, expectations or strategies will be attained or achieved. Furthermore, actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and are subject to a variety of assumptions, uncertainties, risks and factors that are beyond our control including, without limitation: our customers renewing their subscriptions with us and expanding their usage of software and related services; global political changes; the effects of the ongoing military conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and Israel and Hamas and recent events in Venezuela on our business and future operating results; economic downturns and/or the effects of rising interest rates, inflation and volatility in the global economy and financial markets on our business and future operating results; our potential failure to meet publicly announced guidance or other expectations about our business and future operating results; reputational harm or other adverse consequences resulting from use of AI and ML in our product offerings and internal operations if they don't produce the desired benefits; our limited operating history; our history of losses; our potential failure to repurchase shares of our common stock at favorable prices, if at all; failure of our platform to satisfy customer demands; the effects of increased competition; our investments in new products and our ability to introduce new features, services or enhancements, including AI and ML; social, ethical and security issues relating to the use of new and evolving technologies, such as artificial intelligence, in our offerings or partnerships; our ability to effectively expand our sales and marketing organization; our ability to continue to build and maintain credibility with the developer community; our ability to add new customers or increase sales to our existing customers; our ability to maintain, protect, enforce and enhance our intellectual property; our ability to continue to increase revenue from our Atlas platform; the effects of social, ethical and regulatory issues relating to the use of new and evolving technologies, such as AI and ML, in our offerings or partnerships; the growth and expansion of the market for database products and our ability to penetrate that market; our ability to maintain the security of our software and adequately address privacy concerns; our ability to manage our growth effectively and successfully recruit and retain additional highly-qualified personnel; our ability to integrate acquisitions and work with our strategic partners effectively; and the price volatility of our common stock. These and other risks and uncertainties are more fully described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on December 2, 2025. Additional information will be made available in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, and other filings and reports that we may file from time to time with the SEC. Except as required by law, we undertake no duty or obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this release as a result of new information, future events, changes in expectations or otherwise.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    This press release includes the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share and free cash flow. Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin exclude expenses associated with stock-based compensation. Non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share exclude:

    • expenses associated with stock-based compensation including employer payroll taxes upon the vesting and exercising of stock-based awards and expenses related to stock appreciation rights previously issued to our employees in China;
    • amortization of intangible assets for the acquired technology and acquired customer relationships associated with prior acquisitions;
    • certain acquisition-related costs and other, including due diligence costs, professional fees in connection with an acquisition and certain integration-related expenses. These expenses are unpredictable, and dependent on factors that may be outside of our control and unrelated to the continuing operations of the acquired business or our Company. In addition, the size and complexity of an acquisition, which often drives the magnitude of acquisition-related costs, may not be indicative of such future costs;
    • restructuring costs associated with a formal restructuring plan that are primarily related to workforce reductions. The Company excludes these expenses because they are not reflective of ordinary course ongoing business and operating results; and
    • in the case of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share, amortization of the debt issuance costs associated with our convertible senior notes and gains or losses on our financial instruments;
    • additionally, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share are adjusted for an assumed provision for income taxes based on an estimated long-term non-GAAP tax rate as well as the tax charges or benefits resulting from the integration of intellectual property from acquisitions. The non-GAAP tax rate was calculated utilizing a three-year financial projection that excludes the direct impact of the GAAP to non-GAAP adjustments and considers other factors such as operating structure and existing tax positions in various jurisdictions. We intend to periodically reevaluate the projected long-term tax rate, as necessary, for significant events and our ongoing analysis of relevant tax law changes.

    MongoDB uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating MongoDB's ongoing operational performance. MongoDB believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing its financial results with other companies in MongoDB's industry, many of which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

    Free cash flow represents net cash from/used in operating activities, less capital expenditures, principal payments of finance lease liabilities and capitalized software development costs, if any. MongoDB uses free cash flow to understand and evaluate its liquidity and to generate future operating plans. The exclusion of capital expenditures, principal payments of finance lease liabilities and amounts capitalized for software development facilitates comparisons of MongoDB's liquidity on a period-to-period basis and excludes items that it does not consider to be indicative of its liquidity. MongoDB believes that free cash flow is a measure of liquidity that provides useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating the strength of its liquidity and future ability to generate cash that can be used for strategic opportunities or investing in its business in the same manner as MongoDB's management and board of directors.

    Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In particular, other companies may report non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, free cash flow or similarly titled measures but calculate them differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as presented below. This earnings press release and any future releases containing such non-GAAP reconciliations can also be found on the Investor Relations page of MongoDB's website at https://investors.mongodb.com.

    * Non-GAAP financial information is adjusted for an assumed benefit (provision) for income taxes based on our long-term projected tax rate of 20%. Due to the differences in the tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, our estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from our GAAP tax rate and from our actual tax liabilities.

    ** Fully diluted non-GAAP net income per share is calculated based upon 86.5 million and 86.7 million of fully diluted weighted-average shares of outstanding common stock for the three and twelve months ended January 31, 2026, respectively, and 84.6 million and 84.1 million of fully diluted weighted-average shares of outstanding common stock for the three and twelve months ended January 31, 2025, respectively.

    (a) Our definition of "customer" excludes users of our free offerings and all affiliated entities are counted as a single customer.

    (b) For the fourth quarter ended January 31, 2026, our Atlas customer count includes Voyage customers, consistent with their inclusion in Atlas (cloud) revenue. Prior-period amounts for the Atlas customer count have been adjusted to conform to the current presentation where applicable and total customer count remains unchanged.

    (c) Represents the number of customers with $100,000 or greater in annualized recurring revenue ("ARR"). ARR includes the revenue we expect to receive from our customers over the following 12 months based on contractual commitments and, in the case of Direct Sales Customers of Atlas, by annualizing the prior 90 days of their actual consumption of Atlas, assuming no increases or reductions in their subscriptions or usage. For all other customers of our self-serve products, we calculate ARR by annualizing the prior 30 days of their actual consumption of such products, assuming no increases or reductions in usage. ARR excludes professional services.
