The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~November 4, 2026 (estimated)

Fastly, Inc.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 20.4% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 7.4%.

Current signal Results well ahead of expectations: Reported earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate by 126% in the quarter to 2026-06-30, the 4th beat in the last four quarters.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Fast growth. Revenue grew 20.4% over the last 12 months, against a median of 10.1% for internet services & infrastructure companies we cover.
  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 14.3 points on a year ago.
  • Beating expectations. Earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters.
  • Estimates rising. Analysts' consensus for next year's earnings per share has risen 62.2% over 90 days.

Things to watch

  • Results due soon. Results are expected around 4 November; the share price can move sharply on the day.
  • Loss-making. Operating margin is -12.0%: costs exceed revenue.
  • Heavy stock-based pay. Stock pay equals 19.7% of revenue, against a median of 12.4% for internet services & infrastructure companies we cover: a real cost that cash-flow figures leave out.
  • Share dilution. Diluted shares rose 7.1% in a year.
  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 126% and a beta of 1.4 against the S&P 500.
  • Insiders selling. 8 insiders sold $92M of stock over the past 365 days and none bought (86% under pre-set trading plans).

Fundamentalytics rating

model v1.6 · 2026-11-03

Not rated: valued with our growth model, which doesn't carry a Buy/Hold/Sell rating yet.

Valuation models

We value Fastly, Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 10.8%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.3 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Growth cash-flow model Revenue for this year and next from analysts' consensus, then growth fading to 2.5%; the operating margin moving to profitable peers'; investment needed per dollar of growth from peers; reduced by a failure probability. For young or fast-growing companies. The starting margin is normalized to between -100% and 60%; net margin is a proxy when operating income is not tagged. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$0.1 ~$0.0–$0.1 Left out: out of range vs price (0.00x)
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$9.5 ~$7.9–$18 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: the model gives no positive value
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. — Does not apply: return on equity is not positive
Forward price-to-sales vs peers Next year's consensus sales per share times peers' typical forward price-to-sales; only when earnings are negative. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. — 0 Does not apply: no positive value
Revenue-to-maturity model Revenue grown to maturity with the cash margin moving to the industry's; for companies not yet profitable. ~$7.3 ~$5.7–$9.3 Included
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (growth cash-flow model) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. ~$8.4 ~$7.3–$9.5 2 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Fastly, Inc. with Internet Services & Infrastructure in our coverage, using third-party market data.

Moat

24 /100

Weak moat

How hard Fastly's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 8 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 0 / 20

    Cash operating profit has been a median -4.6% of total assets over 7 years.

  • Pricing power 17 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 55.0%, moving by 3.6 percentage points (standard deviation) across 8 years.

  • Durability 10 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median -31.4%; its worst year was -62.6%.

  • Cash conversion 3 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 2 of 8 years, at a median -13.9% of revenue.

  • Discipline 0 / 20

    The diluted share count rose 36.0% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 22.0% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (29 before it).
