Backblaze, Inc.
Next earnings Aug 5, 2026 · consensus $-0.08 EPS, $40.5M rev
Last earnings +68.1% on 2026-05-04
Improving SaaS story — losses halved, FCF turned positive, B2 +26% — but full at 6.2x sales with 11% annual dilution.
Revenue (FY2025) $146M · FY2025
Backblaze is a genuinely improving business that is not yet a clean buy. The loss line is healing fast: net income went from -$59.7M (FY2023) to -$48.5M (FY2024) to -$25.6M (FY2025), and gross profit grew +28% on +14.3% revenue, lifting gross margin to 60.9%. Critically, operating cash flow is positive and growing (+88.3% to $23.5M) against just $4.69M of capex, so the company is self-funding at the cash level even while GAAP-unprofitable. The MD&A frames the real engine: B2 Cloud Storage grew 26% in FY2025 and the post-2024 'go-to-market transformation' is landing multiple $1M+ total-contract-value deals via B2 Overdrive (AI/data workloads, up to 1Tbps) and Powered by Backblaze (neocloud white-label). That is a credible AI-storage tailwind, not just narrative.
The offsetting reality is that the headline grows much slower than the strategic segment. Total revenue rose only 14.3% versus B2's 26%, implying the legacy Computer Backup business is a drag, and overall growth has decelerated from ~26% (FY2022) to 14%. Quality concerns persist below the cash-flow line: shares outstanding rose 10.7% in a single year — heavy dilution that quietly erodes per-share value and partly explains why losses 'improve' on a per-share basis. Cash fell 36.3% to $29.2M, liabilities/equity is 1.31x, and the accumulated deficit sits at -$222M with ROE of -30.8%.
