adjusted EBITDA financial
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
non-GAAP gross margin financial
Non-GAAP gross margin is a measure of a company's profitability that shows how much money it makes from sales after subtracting the direct costs of producing its products or services, but without applying certain accounting adjustments required by standard rules. It helps investors understand the company's core earning ability by excluding items like one-time expenses or accounting changes. This metric provides a clearer picture of ongoing business performance beyond official financial reports.
Regulation FD regulatory
Regulation FD is a rule that prevents company insiders, like executives, from sharing important information with some people before others get it. It matters because it helps ensure all investors have equal access to key news, making the stock market fairer and reducing chances of insider trading.

Prepared Remarks - Dan Rosensweig, CEO & Executive Chairman Chegg, Inc.

Thank you, Tracey, and thank you everyone for joining Chegg’s fourth quarter 2025 earnings call. This is a period of reinvention at Chegg. We are rebuilding the company focused on the $40 billion skilling market, which we believe will be a double-digit revenue growth business for Chegg with strong margins and cash flow in the years ahead. To achieve this, we have reorganized Chegg around two focused business units: Chegg Skilling, which is now our growth engine, and our legacy academic learning services, which we are managing to generate free cash flow. Together, this structure gives us the financial flexibility to invest and grow opportunities within skilling while creating long-term shareholder value. We are excited about our future and feel confident that this new structure sets us up for success.

We are already seeing positive early signs. In Q4 Chegg Skilling delivered $18 million in revenue, positioning us for double-digit growth for 2026. Our legacy business, Chegg Study, continues to serve more than a million students and, with our new streamlined org structure, is providing meaningful cash flow to fund value creation. As we have expressed, changes in search interfaces continue to impact our traffic. Yet, despite these changes, the quality and accuracy of our services continue to drive high retention rates. We are now focused on optimizing pricing and packaging and testing multiple strategies to extend our operational runway and drive more free cash flow. We have a clear objective - to use that cash to fund new growth opportunities and increase the value for our shareholders.

Given the global demand for workforce skilling has already reached $40 billion, we feel it is a huge opportunity for Chegg, and we are well positioned to serve this market - particularly in AI, language, technical fluency, and durable skills. Our brand is trusted by learners worldwide, and our skills courses are grounded in learning science and data-driven instructional design. Our platform tracks learner progress in real time, delivering predictive nudges and timely interventions that improve engagement, retention, and completion rates. This combination of brand credibility, evidence-based course design, and intelligent learner support consistently leads our channel partners to report stronger outcomes versus our competitors.

To capture the growth opportunity we see ahead, we are expanding our course catalog with high-demand technical, AI, language, and professional skills while simultaneously broadening our global footprint across B2B distribution channels. As part of this strategy, we are excited to announce new partnerships with DHL, Gi Group and Woolf University. Woolf specifically expands how we can serve learners, as they provide accredited degree pathways that allow for acquired skills to count towards recognized credentials. We also have extended key contracts from companies like L’Oreal and PPG. Our goal is to further extend our reach into global enterprise, institutional, and academic markets. Looking ahead to 2026, we plan to onboard additional employer and institutional partners, both directly and through leading marketplaces. We continue to expand the depth and breadth of our curriculum.

To support this opportunity, I am thrilled to announce Karine Allouche is joining our team to run our European language learning and skills operation. Karine brings deep experience in building and scaling enterprise businesses across Microsoft, NetApp, Global English and – most recently – at Coursera, where she led the transformation of their enterprise business. We are thrilled to have her leadership and expertise as we scale our skilling business around the world.

We have made significant progress in the reinvention of Chegg. Our goal is to continue to grow our skilling business by double-digits annually, and over the next couple of years to achieve an adjusted EBITDA margin of at least 20%.

To achieve that, our 2026 priorities are straightforward:

  • Accelerate the growth of our skilling business by expanding our offerings and network of partners, domestically and through Europe
  • Increase free cash flow to invest in the future growth of skilling
  • And strengthen our balance sheet by ending the year with zero debt and a meaningful cash balance.

We are encouraged by the results we are seeing in the skills business and are excited about the path ahead. We successfully transformed our business from a print textbook rental business to an online learning company and now we are transitioning from a D2C business to a B2B skills learning platform. We are excited about the work we have done so far, and we look forward to updating you again next quarter.

With that, I’ll turn it over to David.

Prepared Remarks - David Longo, CFO Chegg, Inc.

Thank you, Dan and good afternoon.

Today, I will be presenting our financial performance for the fourth quarter of 2025, along with the company’s outlook for the first quarter of 2026. We are introducing our new revenue breakout to provide transparency into our Chegg Skilling business. The historical revenue breakout for the past three years can be found on our data sheet on our investor relations website.

We delivered a good fourth quarter. We exceeded our revenue expectations and surpassed the high-end of our adjusted EBITDA guidance by $2 million, reflecting the initial positive impact of our new focus and turnaround efforts. Our strategic shift into the large skilling market positions us for the next phase of long-term, sustainable growth with strong margins. During the quarter, we also took steps to enhance our capital structure, repurchasing $9 million of our 2026 convertible notes at a discount.

In the fourth quarter, we delivered $18 million in Skilling revenue, with double-digit growth, underscoring the significant market opportunity and the momentum we are seeing. Academic Services revenue was $55 million, as we continue to operate that business with a focus on cash generation. As Dan mentioned earlier, we are testing different pricing and packaging strategies to extend its operational runway.

Moving on to expenses, non-GAAP operating expenses were $44.8 million in the quarter, a reduction of $39.8 million, or 47% year-over-year, as we maintain fiscal discipline and continue to benefit from the successful execution of our restructuring activities. Our fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA was $13 million, representing a margin of 18%.

Our adoption of AI, along with our new business structure, has enabled us to significantly lower expenses while preserving our ability to grow. We overhauled our cost structure to improve efficiency and create capacity for reinvestment in Chegg Skilling. We are on track to reduce total non-GAAP expenses to less than $250 million in 2026, a 53% decline from 2024.

Our strategic investments in AI have allowed us to significantly reduce CapEx without compromising quality. Q4 CapEx was $6 million, down 51% year over year. For 2026, we are targeting a further 60% reduction in CapEx, with approximately 90% dedicated to our growing Skilling business.

Free cash flow in the fourth quarter was negative $15 million, which was primarily impacted by $12 million in employee severance payments related to our restructuring activities. In 2026 we expect $18 million in severance-related cash expenditures related to our last two restructurings, with approximately 80% occurring in the first quarter. Despite these items, we expect to generate meaningful free cash flow in 2026.

Looking at the balance sheet, we concluded the quarter with cash and investments of $85 million and a net cash balance of $31 million.

Before I move to guidance, I’d like to quickly address the delisting notice we received from the NYSE. The notice has no immediate impact on our listing status, and we have ample time and multiple avenues available to regain compliance, including a potential reverse stock split. Our primary focus is on strengthening the fundamentals of the business. We believe that executing on our priorities will be the most effective path to restoring compliance and delivering long-term shareholder value.

Looking ahead at Q1 guidance, we expect:

  • $17.5 to $18.0 million of revenue from our Chegg Skilling business. We expect double-digit growth for the year and anticipate stronger performance in the second half than in the first, driven by continued investment in the business and the addition of new distribution partners.
  • Total revenue between $60 and $62 million;
  • Gross margin to be in the range of 57 to 58 percent;
  • And adjusted EBITDA between $11 and $12 million.

In 2026, our capital allocation strategy is focused on optimizing free cash flow, strengthening our cash position, and eliminating our debt to create a more flexible and resilient balance sheet. We will also evaluate opportunities to deploy capital through a disciplined approach that supports sustainable growth and generates long-term shareholder value.

In closing, we have taken deliberate actions to strengthen the company for long-term success. We are leaner, more efficient, and poised for double digit revenue growth in our Chegg Skilling business and meaningful free cash flow in 2026. We believe we are turning the corner and are on a clear path toward future growth, profitability, and increased shareholder value.

With that, I will turn the call over to the operator for your questions.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement Chegg’s financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables and the related earnings conference call contain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP cost of revenues, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net (loss) income, non-GAAP weighted average shares, non-GAAP net (loss) income per share, and free cash flow. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the section of the accompanying tables titled, “Reconciliation of Net Loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA,” “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” “Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow,” and “Reconciliation of Forward-Looking Net Loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.” We have not reconciled 2026 total non-GAAP expenses to total expenses, which is comprised of cost of revenues and total operating expenses, because we do not provide guidance on total expenses or the reconciling items as a result of the uncertainty, timing, and the potential variability of these items. The actual amount of total expenses and such reconciling items will have a significant impact on our 2026 total non-GAAP expenses. Accordingly, a reconciliation of 2026 total non-GAAP expenses to total expenses is not available.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Chegg defines (1) adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization or EBITDA, adjusted for share-based compensation expense, other income, net, acquisition-related compensation costs, impairment expense, restructuring charges, content and related assets charge, impairment of lease related assets, impairment of equity investment, and loss contingency; (2) non-GAAP cost of revenues as cost of revenues excluding amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, acquisition-related compensation costs, restructuring charges, and content and related assets charge, (3) non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit excluding amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, acquisition-related compensation costs, restructuring charges, and content and related assets charge, (4) non-GAAP gross margin is defined as non-GAAP gross profit divided by net revenues, (5) non-GAAP operating expenses as operating expenses excluding share-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related compensation costs, restructuring charges, impairment expense, impairment of lease related assets, impairment of equity investment and loss contingency; (6) non-GAAP income from operations as loss from operations excluding share-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related compensation costs, restructuring charges, impairment expense, content and related assets charge, impairment of lease related assets, impairment of equity investment, and loss contingency, (7) non-GAAP net (loss) income as net loss excluding share-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related compensation costs, amortization of debt issuance costs, the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments, restructuring charges, impairment expense, content and related assets charge, impairment of lease related assets, impairment of equity investment, gain on sale of equity investment, gain on early extinguishment of debt, and loss contingency (8) non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding as weighted average shares outstanding adjusted for the effect of shares for stock plan activity and shares related to our convertible senior notes, to the extent such shares are not already included in our weighted average shares outstanding; (9) non-GAAP net (loss) income per share is defined as non-GAAP net (loss) income divided by non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding; and (10) free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for purchases of property and equipment. To the extent additional significant non-recurring items arise in the future, Chegg may consider whether to exclude such items in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures it uses.

Chegg believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Chegg’s performance by excluding items that may not be indicative of Chegg’s core business, operating results or future outlook. Chegg management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Chegg’s operating results, as well as when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods and believes that such measures enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparisons of Chegg’s performance to prior periods.

As presented in the “Reconciliation of Net Loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA,” “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” “Reconciliation of Forward-Looking Net Loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA,” and “Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow” tables below, each of the non-GAAP financial measures excludes or includes one or more of the following items:

Share-based compensation expense

Share-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is dependent on market forces that are often beyond Chegg's control. As a result, management excludes this item from Chegg's internal operating forecasts and models. Management believes that non-GAAP measures adjusted for share-based compensation expense provide investors with a basis to measure Chegg's core performance against the performance of other companies without the variability created by share-based compensation as a result of the variety of equity awards used by other companies and the varying methodologies and assumptions used.

Amortization of intangible assets

Chegg amortizes intangible assets, including those that contribute to generating revenues, that it acquires in conjunction with acquisitions, which results in non‑cash expenses that may not otherwise have been incurred. Chegg believes excluding the expense associated with intangible assets from non-GAAP measures allows for a more accurate assessment of its ongoing operations and provides investors with a better comparison of period-over-period operating results. No corresponding adjustments have been made related to revenues generated from acquired intangible assets.

Acquisition-related compensation costs

Acquisition-related compensation costs include compensation expense resulting from the employment retention of certain key employees established in accordance with the terms of the acquisitions. In most cases, these acquisition-related compensation costs are not factored into management's evaluation of potential acquisitions or Chegg's performance after completion of acquisitions, because they are not related to Chegg's core operating performance. In addition, the frequency and amount of such charges can vary significantly based on the size and timing of acquisitions and the maturities of the businesses being acquired. Excluding acquisition-related compensation costs from non-GAAP measures provides investors with a basis to compare Chegg’s results against those of other companies without the variability caused by purchase accounting.

Amortization of debt issuance costs

The difference between the effective interest expense and the contractual interest expense are excluded from management's assessment of our operating performance because management believes that these non-cash expenses are not indicative of ongoing operating performance. Chegg believes that the exclusion of the non-cash interest expense provides investors with a better comparison of period-over-period operating results.

Income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments

We utilize a non-GAAP effective tax rate for evaluating our operating results, which is based on our current mid-term projections. This non-GAAP tax rate could change for various reasons including, but not limited to, significant changes resulting from tax legislation, changes to our corporate structure and other significant events. Chegg believes that the inclusion of the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments provides investors with a better comparison of period-over-period operating results.

Restructuring charges

Restructuring charges represent expenses incurred in conjunction with a reduction in workforce. Chegg believes that it is appropriate to exclude them from non-GAAP financial measures because they are nonrecurring and the result of an event that is not considered a core-operating activity. Chegg believes that it is appropriate to exclude the restructuring charges from non-GAAP financial measures because it provides investors with a better comparison of period-over-period operating results.

Impairment expense

Impairment expense represents the impairment of goodwill, intangible assets, and property and equipment. Chegg believes that it is appropriate to exclude them from non-GAAP financial measures because they are the result of discrete events that are not considered core-operating activities and are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Chegg believes that it is appropriate to exclude the impairment expense from non-GAAP financial measures because it provides investors with a better comparison of period-over-period operating results.

Impairment of lease related assets

The impairment of lease related assets represents impairment charge recorded on the ROU asset and leasehold improvements associated with the closure of our offices. The impairment of lease related assets is the result of an event that is not considered a core-operating activity and we believe its exclusion provides investors with a better comparison of period-over-period operating results.

Content and related assets charge

The content and related assets charge represents a write off of certain content and related assets. The content and related assets charge is excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because it is the result of a discrete event that is not considered core-operating activities. Chegg believes that it is appropriate to exclude the content and related assets charge from non-GAAP financial measures because it enables the comparison of period-over-period operating results.

Gain on sale of equity investment

The gain on sale of equity investment represents a one-time event to record the sale of our equity investment in Sound Ventures. We believe that it is appropriate to exclude the gain from non-GAAP financial measure because it is the result of an event that is not considered a core-operating activity and we believe its exclusion provides investors with a better comparison of period-over-period operating results.

Impairment of equity investment

The impairment of equity investment represents a one-time event to record an impairment charge on our equity investment. The impairment of equity investment is a non-cash expense and we believe the exclusion from non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with a better comparison of period-over-period results.

Gain on early extinguishment of debt

The difference between the carrying amount of early extinguished debt and the reacquisition price is excluded from management's assessment of our operating performance because management believes that these non-cash gains are not indicative of ongoing operating performance. Chegg believes that the exclusion of the gain on early extinguishment of debt provides investors with a better comparison of period-over-period operating results.

Loss contingency

We record a contingent liability for a loss contingency related to legal matters when a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. The loss contingency is excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because they are the result of discrete events that are not considered core-operating activities. Chegg believes that it is appropriate to exclude the loss contingency from non-GAAP financial measures because it enables the comparison of period-over-period operating results.

Effect of shares for stock plan activity

The effect of shares for stock plan activity represents the dilutive impact of outstanding stock options, RSUs and PSUs, to the extent such shares are not already included in our weighted average shares outstanding.

Effect of shares related to convertible senior notes

The effect of shares related to convertible senior notes represents the dilutive impact of our convertible senior notes, to the extent such shares are not already included in our weighted average shares outstanding.

Free cash flow

Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for purchases of property and equipment. Chegg considers free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after the purchases of property and equipment, which can then be used to, among other things, invest in Chegg's business and make strategic acquisitions. A limitation of the utility of free cash flow as a measure of financial performance is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in Chegg's cash balance for the period.
