Databricks closes $5B round at $190B valuation
Databricks closed a $5 billion private funding round at a $190 billion valuation on Aug. 13, 2026, after investor demand far exceeded its initial $1 billion target, CEO Ali Ghodsi said. The financing was led by Coatue and included Blackstone, MGX, accounts tied to T. Rowe Price and Sixth Street Growth. Databricks reported a $7 billion annualized revenue run rate, more than 80% year‑over‑year growth in Q2, and said it is cash‑flow positive. Its Lakehouse cloud data warehouse has a $1.5 billion run rate while Lakebase surpassed a $100 million run rate. Executives said the capital will accelerate enterprise AI products and governance (Unity AI Gateway), agent/model capabilities (Genie), and help cover large cloud commitments, costly AI research and active M&A (including Electric and Panther); the raise follows a round six months earlier that valued the company at $134 billion.
