Q2 2026 revenue $4.33B (+3% YoY) but net loss $296M vs. $37M profit in Q2 2025 due to $95M tax provisions (India GST $62M, US Sales & Use Tax $33M), elevated interest costs ($162M, +47% YoY), and reduced EBITDA. Company cut full-year 2026 guidance: Group revenue to $17.91B (down $395M), adjusted EBITDA to $2.655B (down $210M). Announced $500M cost-reduction program by 2029.
Why this rating
Leadership change is routine for a company this size; tax provisions and margin compression are material but manageable relative to $50.4B market cap. Guidance cuts signal execution headwinds.
