RXT Shareholder Alert: Investors With Losses May Seek to Lead the Class Action in Rackspace Technology Securities Lawsuit - Contact Levi & Korsinsky

Promise vs. Reality: On May 7, 2026, Rackspace reaffirmed full-year revenue guidance of $2,600–$2,700 million. Nine weeks later, that promise became a $2,450–$2,550 million reality and a $2.21 per-share loss for RXT holders.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Levi & Korsinsky, LLP alerts investors in Rackspace Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: RXT) that a securities class action has been filed on behalf of shareholders who purchased securities between May 7, 2026 and July 8, 2026. Find out if you could qualify to recover your per-share losses. You may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] or (212) 363-7500.

RXT closed at $4.37 on July 9, 2026, down $2.21 per share, or 33.6%, on unusually heavy volume, after Rackspace cut full-year 2026 revenue guidance by $150 million and adjusted EBITDA guidance by $20 million. Shares had reached a Class Period high of $7.53 on June 17, 2026. The last day to move for lead plaintiff is September 28, 2026.

The Promise

The Company projected full-year 2026 total revenue of $2,600 million to $2,700 million, Private Cloud revenue of $1,025 million to $1,075 million, and Public Cloud revenue of $1,575 million to $1,625 million. On May 7, 2026, management told investors the full-year outlook was reaffirmed "in its entirety," with revenue, EBITDA and cash flow all unchanged, and pointed to a newly announced AMD collaboration as support for the Private Cloud growth profile.

The Reality

Results revealed a materially different picture on July 9, 2026, when Rackspace disclosed that its enterprise AI buildout required a significant re-prioritization of resources. Private Cloud guidance was lowered by $25 million tied to exiting colocation and basic hosting revenues, and Public Cloud guidance was lowered by $125 million tied to exiting low-margin resale as hyperscalers moved customers to direct contracts. The lawsuit maintains that these conditions existed while the earlier targets were being reaffirmed.

Promise vs. Actual: By the Numbers

• Total revenue: promised $2,600–$2,700 million; revised to $2,450–$2,550 million
• Public Cloud: promised $1,575–$1,625 million; revised to $1,450–$1,500 million
• Private Cloud: promised $1,025–$1,075 million; revised to $1,000–$1,050 million
• Adjusted EBITDA: promised $305–$315 million; revised to $285–$295 million
• Year-over-year revenue change: prior outlook of (3)% to 1%; revised outlook of (9)% to (5)%
• Share price: $7.53 Class Period high on June 17, 2026; $4.37 close on July 9, 2026

"Companies that make specific promises to investors about future performance have an obligation to disclose known risks to those projections. The gap here between reaffirmed guidance in May and a $150 million reduction in July is the central question this action raises." -- Joseph E. Levi, Esq.

What the Lawsuit Alleges About the Gap

The action asserts that investors purchased RXT at prices inflated by statements that allegedly omitted the planned reallocation of capacity and capital away from the higher-margin Private Cloud segment, which carried a 24.7% operating margin, and the ongoing decline in Public Cloud resale revenue.
