SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Blaize Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: BZAI; BZAIW) (“Blaize” or the “Company”), a leader in programmable, energy-efficient AI computing, today announced its preliminary third quarter 2026 revenue. The Company also provided an update regarding its previously issued full-year 2026 revenue guidance. These matters are further described in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Preliminary Third Quarter 2026 Revenue and Full Year Outlook

The Company expects to report preliminary revenue of approximately $0.5 million for the third quarter ending September 30, 2026.

The Company’s preliminary third-quarter revenue estimate is based on currently available information and remains subject to completion of the Company’s quarter-end closing procedures. Actual results could differ materially from this preliminary estimate.

Given the foregoing and as noted below, the Company is revising its full-year revenue guidance for 2026 to be between $32.0 million and $36.0 million. The revised guidance is based on binding, non-cancellable purchase orders from NeoTensr and a new purchase order from an existing customer in process of signature. The product shipments to NeoTensr this quarter relate to the contract announced by the Company in April 2026 for up to $50.0 million. The revision reflects the Company’s updated expectations regarding shipment timing and management of working capital to meet inventory purchase needs. The Company has sufficient inventory on hand to partially fulfill the orders in the fourth quarter and is working with suppliers to obtain the balance before the year end. Any increased costs that are able to be passed through to customers or new customer commitments received during the fourth quarter that can be fulfilled through inventory on hand or software service agreements and recognized in the quarter would be additive to the Company’s revenue expectations. Should there be delays in timing or in receiving payments from customers scheduled during the fourth quarter, the Company’s revenue recognition for the year could be adversely affected.
