Qualys raises FY2026 guidance after 11% Q2 revenue growth; AI-native Risk Ops adoption accelerating

Qualys delivered Q2 2026 revenue of $182.2 million, up 11% YoY, with non-GAAP operating income of $81.4 million (45% margin) and raised full-year guidance to $732–$738 million (9–10% growth). Management attributes momentum to three distinct vectors: AI-native Risk Operations Center adoption via Enterprise TruRisk Management, growing federal pipeline opportunity, and early traction in QFlex (a new offering category not detailed in this release). Operating cash flow surged 77% to $59.6 million, signaling durable margin expansion. The federal authorization of TotalCloud via FedRAMP High—sponsored by DEA—unlocks CNAPP capabilities for highly regulated customers, a material gateway event. Management's language shifted from cautious to confident on long-term growth reacceleration, a departure from prior quarterly framing.
