Government orders surged by 89%, but could not hide the weakness in the main business of C3.ai (AI.US). The stock price staged a "roller coaster" after hours.

According to the financial news app, the enterprise artificial intelligence software company C3.ai (AI.US) announced better-than-expected performance in the second quarter of the 2026 fiscal year on Wednesday, mainly due to a significant rebound in demand from federal government departments and increased transaction activity driven by partners. However, due to market concerns about the company's continued revenue pressure and operational challenges, its stock price experienced sharp fluctuations after hours.
