(BAND) Q1 2026 Management View "Bandwidth has entered 2026 with historic momentum" (Co-Founder, CEO, & Chairman David Morken), highlighting "record revenue of $209 million, up 20% year-over-year" and "record first-quarter adjusted EBITDA of $26 million," and adding, "Based on this performance, we are raising our full-year outlook." Morken framed strategy around AI-enabled communications, saying, "Our global communications cloud and Maestro orchestration layer are essential infrastructure that make voice AI possible," and argued that network ownership is the differentiator: "This is our moat." On a major partnership, Morken said, "We recently announced that Salesforce selected Bandwidth as its critical infrastructure partner to power voice and messaging for their groundbreaking new agent force contact center platform," and added, "As agent force adoption grows, we believe revenue will build over time." Morken cited regulated-industry momentum and deal size, noting "2 new million-plus deals" in financial services, and described messaging expansion: "During the first quarter, we won an additional high-volume messaging customer" managing "tens of millions of messages per month." "Total revenue was $209 million, an increase of 20% year-over-year" (Executive VP & CFO Daryl Raiford), who also reported "Non-GAAP gross profit of $89 million," "Non-GAAP gross margin improved 50 basis points to 59.5%," "Adjusted EBITDA grew by 17% to $26 million," and "Non-GAAP earnings per share rose to $0.38."

"We completed 932,000 square feet of leases during the quarter," (President, CEO & Director Connolly) said, adding "Our cash rent roll-up on second-generation leasing was 15.2%, which marks 48 consecutive quarters of positive rent roll-ups," with notable wins including "new leases with Oracle at Neuhoff in Nashville and KPMG at Proscenium in Midtown Atlanta." (President, CEO & Director Connolly) framed demand/supply dynamics as "demand is increasing while supply is decreasing" and said this is creating "an emerging shortage of premier lifestyle office space" in Sunbelt submarkets.

(Executive Vice President and Chief Investment Officer Kennedy Hicks) said Neuhoff’s office component is "now 84.3% leased, up from 55.3% last quarter," driven by "the 116,000 square foot new lease with Oracle," and added "we are now in lease negotiations for the remaining 2 full floors of the project." "Cash NOI grew 5.5% during the first quarter compared to last year," said (Executive VP & CFO Gregg D.

Oil held its second weekly gain as US President Donald Trump said he was sticking with a naval blockade of Iranian ports, elevating concerns the vital Strait of Hormuz would not reopen anytime soon. West Texas Intermediate traded near $105 a barrel, taking this week’s advance to 11%, while Brent closed near $110 on Thursday. In a written statement, Iran’s supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei cast doubt on the likelihood of a deal with the US, vowing not to give up the Islamic Republic’s nuclear or missile technologies, and signaling Tehran would keep control of the strait. Oil has soared more than a quarter over the past two weeks as the deadlock in negotiations extends the near-total closure of the crucial waterway, which before the war carried about a fifth of the world’s crude. The uncertainty over future supply has seen sharp price swings, and a flattening of the futures curve . “Selloffs are approached cautiously, but the bandwagon fills up on moves higher,” said Carl Larry, an oil and gas analyst at Enverus. “Every day continues to be an adventure, but also a chance to make money...quickly.” To get Bloomberg’s Energy Daily newsletter in your inbox, click here . WTI for June delivery slipped 0.3% to $ 105.38 a barrel at 6:01 a.m. in Singapore. Brent for July settlement closed little changed at $110.40 a barrel on Thursday.

UBS Group AG hired Kazuhiko Fukaya , a former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. head of sales to Japan’s regional banks, as part of an effort to win investment banking deals. Fukaya joined UBS Securities Japan Co. in Tokyo as an executive director on Friday, a spokesman confirmed. He will work as an investment banker covering local financial institutions, signaling a role shift to dealmaking after he spent more than two decades selling securities and other products to those companies. The recruitment is the latest step by UBS to expand in Japan, where the return of inflation and an increase in corporate activity have brightened the outlook for business in the financial industry. Last October, the Swiss bank hired Shinichi Yokote , a former Goldman Sachs partner who now heads the Tokyo-based brokerage arm. Rural lenders in Japan face a range of economic headwinds, from a shrinking population to increased competition for deposits. That has pushed them to take actions such as mergers with rivals, generating potential advisory deals for investment banks. Fukaya spent almost 20 years at Goldman Sachs across two stints, building relationships with senior managers of regional lenders. He also worked at Morgan Stanley from 2004 to 2008 in a similar role, according to his LinkedIn profile .
