MiniMax Revenue Growth Still Comes With a Wider Adjusted Loss
MiniMax reported on August 26 that first-half 2026 revenue rose 283.1% to $116.6 million, with Open Platform and enterprise services contributing $73.9 million. Gross margin improved to 17.9%, but adjusted net loss widened to $293.0 million; rapid token use and revenue growth do not yet establish profitable unit economics.
Citation-ready: MiniMax reported on August 26, 2026, that unaudited first-half revenue rose 283.1% to $116.6 million while adjusted net loss widened to $293.0 million from $138.7 million.
What happened and why it matters
No. Revenue and gross margin rose quickly, while adjusted net loss more than doubled; profitability depends on compute cost, pricing, customer retention, operating expenses, model investment, and revenue quality.

Platform revenue changed the mix
Open Platform and other enterprise services contributed $73.9 million, or 63.4% of total revenue, compared with 30.3% a year earlier.
That shift is material, but the release does not provide customer concentration, renewal, workload margin, or product-level contribution.
Gross margin improved while loss widened
MiniMax attributes the margin increase to infrastructure efficiency, yet research, administrative, and other costs still produced a much larger adjusted loss.
A profitability view needs compute cost per unit, realized price, support burden, model-development allocation, retention, and cash conversion over time.
