How did Box's Q2 fiscal 2026 results compare to consensus analyst estimates?

Based on the news excerpt you provided, the announcement is only about when Box, Inc. (NYSE: BOX) will release its second‑quarter fiscal 2026 earnings (the quarter ending July 31 2025) and the details for the accompanying conference call. The release is scheduled for Tuesday, August 26 2025 at 2:00 p.m. PT.

What the release announcement does not contain

  • The actual financial results (e.g., revenue, earnings per share, operating income, etc.) for Q2 fiscal 2026.
  • Any comparison of those results with consensus analyst estimates (e.g., whether revenue was “above”, “in line with”, or “below” the consensus forecast).
  • Any commentary on how the company’s performance stacked up against analysts’ expectations.

Therefore, with the information given, we cannot determine how Box’s Q2 fiscal 2026 results compare to consensus analyst estimates.

To answer the question, you would need to wait for the actual earnings release (or a subsequent news article that reports the numbers and analysts’ expectations). Once those results are published, they typically include:

  • Reported revenue vs. consensus revenue estimate.
  • Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) vs. consensus EPS estimate.
  • Guidance or commentary from Box’s management regarding the variance (if any) from analysts’ forecasts.

Until that data is released, any comparison to analyst estimates cannot be provided. If you obtain the earnings release or a follow‑up news story with the actual numbers, you could then evaluate:

  1. Revenue: Was the reported revenue higher, lower, or roughly equal to the consensus forecast?
  2. Earnings per Share (EPS): Same comparison for EPS (both GAAP and non‑GAAP if reported).
  3. Operating Metrics: Any commentary on margins, cash flow, or other key metrics vs. expectations.
  4. Analyst Commentary: Often analysts update their forecasts after the release, noting whether the company “beat,” “met,” or “missed” consensus.

Next steps for you:

  • Watch the conference call/webcast on August 26, 2025 (register at the link provided in the announcement) for the full details and management commentary.
  • Check subsequent Business Wire or other financial news releases that will summarize the results and include analyst comparisons.

Until the results are publicly disclosed, a direct comparison to analyst estimates cannot be made.
