Latest Megaport (ASX:MP1) News

Small-cap shares delivered the week’s biggest moves, led by Mamba’s exploration funding and Cettire’s rebound. Clinical failures, cash shortages and delayed projects kept the broader market cautious.

Megaport has secured three AI infrastructure contracts worth a combined A$978.6 million, with customer prepayments covering much of the required investment. The deals push pro forma Group ARR to about A$1.1 billion and prompt upgrades to FY27 revenue and EBITDA margin guidance.

Gold, rare earths and energy shares led a busy week, while major company results brought large gains and steep sell-offs. Corporate deals, new project studies and rising dividends drew buyers, but some stocks fell despite stronger earnings.

Audinate led the technology board after a 38.10% rise, while Ovanti fell 33.33% as it left the global buy-now-pay-later market.
AI infrastructure, data centres and software cost cuts shaped a busy week for ASX technology investors.

Megaport has posted a 37% jump in FY26 revenue to $312 million, driven by strategic acquisitions and a broadening platform across compute, network, and storage. The company raised over $1 billion to fund AI-focused contracts and infrastructure growth.

A tiny gold explorer, a battery materials stock and a biotech name led a week packed with dealmaking, drilling news and fresh funding. Resources did most of the heavy lifting, while several big gaps either held firm or gave back part of their early jump.

Big swings hit ASX tech as tiny GCM surged, Objective slumped on a Defence contract loss, and DXN fell despite landing new work. Away from the biggest price moves, the week was packed with raisings, acquisitions and fresh AI, quantum and enterprise contract news.

Megaport has successfully closed the retail portion of its AUD 827 million entitlement offer, raising AUD 308 million through the issuance of 21.6 million new shares priced at AUD 14.30 each. The retail offer's Top Up Facility was oversubscribed and scaled back to allocate all available shares to participating shareholders.

A brutal sell-off in a few small caps sat alongside takeover bids, fresh capital raisings and strong gains in medtech. The week split the market in two: buyers chased clear funding and approval news, while weaker stories sank fast after reopening.

Capital raisings drove the week in ASX tech, with investors backing AI and data centre spending but punishing deep discounts. The biggest moves came from small-cap fundraisings, while AI infrastructure names drew the clearest buying support.

Megaport Limited is raising approximately A$827 million through a fully underwritten entitlement offer to finance four major AI contracts and build an on-demand GPU Pool, aiming to establish a globally-distributed AI inference cloud.

A handful of extreme moves set the tone, from DXN’s explosive AI data centre rerating to steep sell-offs in small-cap explorers. Deals, funding and fresh drilling results drove the week, but several gap-ups lost steam as traders banked profits.
