As of June 30, 2026, Akamai held $4.6 billion in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.

Management expects existing liquidity and forecast operating cash flows to fund foreseeable cash needs for at least the next 12 months, including cloud-services and AI-infrastructure investments, information technology spending, acquisitions, repurchases and lease commitments.
