Revenue
2018 results include SingleHop operations as of March 1, 2018, and are therefore not comparable to prior periods. For the second quarter:
Revenue totaled $82.0 million in the second quarter of 2018, an increase of 10.5% sequentially and 17.7% year- over-year. The sequential increase was primarily due to a full quarter’s impact of SingleHop and an increase in Cloud revenues. Our backlog remains strong, replenishing completed installs in the second quarter.
Beginning with the first quarter of 2018, INAP redefined its segment reporting by geography into INAP US and INAP International.
INAP US revenue totaled $64.1 million in the second quarter of 2018, an increase of 12.2% sequentially and 18.4% year-over-year. The sequential increase was primarily due to a full quarter’s impact of SingleHop and an increase in Cloud revenues.
INAP International revenue totaled $17.9 million in the second quarter of 2018, an increase of 4.5% sequentially and 15.2% year-over-year. The sequential increase was primarily due to an increase in Cloud revenues of $1.0 million, which includes organic growth and the full quarter’s impact from SingleHop.
