Arista Q2 2026: first $3 billion quarter, revenue up 37.7%

Arista's Q2 2026 was a beat-and-raise quarter: revenue of $3.04 billion rose 37.7% from a year ago, and non-GAAP EPS of $1.02 landed 13.0% above the $0.9026 consensus. The blemish is gross margin, down to 62.9% from 65.2%, and free cash flow that fell year over year. Read this as accelerating demand with thinner hardware margins, not a company running out of growth.
