Insights

Clarivate shows positive organic growth trends despite overall revenue decline due to divestitures; maintains 2025 guidance with signs of turnaround.

Clarivate's Q2 2025 results reveal a mixed but gradually improving financial picture. Total revenue decreased 4.4% to $621.4 million, but this decline was primarily driven by strategic divestitures rather than core business weakness. The underlying organic revenue actually grew 0.5%, with organic recurring revenue increasing 0.8%.

A key highlight is the improvement in revenue quality - the company's organic Annual Contract Value (ACV) grew 1.3% year-over-year, and the mix of organic recurring revenue reached 88% of total revenue, up substantially from 80% in 2024. This 800 basis point improvement demonstrates Clarivate's shift toward more predictable revenue streams.

While the company still reported a net loss of $72 million ($0.11 per share), this represents a significant improvement from the $304.3 million loss ($0.46 per share) in Q2 2024. However, adjusted metrics show some pressure - adjusted EBITDA declined 4.7% to $261.6 million, and adjusted EPS decreased from $0.20 to $0.18.

The segment performance shows subscription revenues holding steady with 1.7% organic growth, while transactional revenues continued to decline, falling 21.5% primarily due to planned product wind-downs in the Academia & Government segment.

Cash generation remains solid with $287.5 million in operating cash flow for the first half, though slightly below the $302.4 million in the prior year. The company maintained an active share repurchase program, buying back 11.5 million shares in Q2 alone and 23.2 million shares at an average price of $4.29 in the first half of 2025.

Management reaffirmed its full-year 2025 guidance, projecting organic ACV growth of 1.0% to 2.0%, revenue between $2.28 billion and $2.40 billion, and adjusted EBITDA of $940 million to $1.00 billion. The CEO highlighted early positive results from their Value Creation Plan and noted potential AI tailwinds benefiting their IP business.

Overall, while Clarivate continues to navigate challenges, the acceleration in organic ACV growth, improving recurring revenue mix, and management's confident outlook suggest the company's transformation efforts are beginning to yield results.

— Continued acceleration of organic ACV and recurring organic revenue growth —

— Delivered improved organic recurring revenue mix —

— Reaffirmed 2025 Outlook —

— Repurchased 11.5 million ordinary shares in the second quarter—

LONDON, July 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Clarivate Plc (NYSE: CLVT) (the "Company" or "Clarivate"), a leading global provider of transformative intelligence, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2025 were $621.4 million, compared to total revenues of $650.3 million for the second quarter of 2024, due to inorganic divestitures and disposals. Organic revenues for the second quarter of 2025 increased 0.5%, compared to the second quarter of 2024, due to a 0.8% increase in organic recurring revenues, partially offset by lower organic transactional revenues. Organic ACV grew 1.3% compared to June 30, 2024, and the mix of organic recurring revenue to total revenue for the first half of this year is now at 88%, an improvement of 800 bps compared to 80% for the prior year ended December 31, 2024.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2025 was $72.0 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $304.3 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $123.3 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to $142.2 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025 was $261.6 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $274.4 million for the second quarter of 2024.

Total revenues for the first half of 2025 were $1,215.1 million, compared to total revenues of $1,271.5 million for the first half of 2024, due to inorganic divestitures and disposals. Organic revenues for the first half of 2025 increased 0.4%, compared to the first half of 2024, due to a 0.7% increase in organic recurring revenues, partially offset by lower organic transactional revenues.

Net loss for the first half of 2025 was $175.9 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $379.3 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the first half of 2024. Adjusted net income for the first half of 2025 was $219.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, compared to $245.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the first half of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for the first half of 2025 was $494.8 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $510.7 million for the first half of 2024.

Clarivate generated $287.5 million of operating cash flow and $160.6 million of free cash flow in the first half of 2025 and used approximately $100 million to repurchase 23.2 million ordinary shares at an average price of $4.29 per share.

"We reported solid second quarter performance and delivered growth in our key metrics. We have good momentum underway building off a solid first half of the year," said Matti Shem Tov, Chief Executive Officer. "There are early indications that our Value Creation Plan is driving improved performance and I'm pleased by the way in which the team is coming together to move the business forward."

"Looking ahead, we believe that the enhancements we made to the sales operating model to improve execution, customer engagement, and retention, as well as AI tailwinds benefiting our IP business, will support Clarivate's profitability and value creation."

Recurring revenues, which consist of subscription and re-occurring revenues, increased 0.8% organically.

Transactional revenues decreased $29.3 million, or 21.5%, to $106.8 million, primarily due to product group wind-downs within A&G. Organic transactional revenues decreased 1.4%.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release contains financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, Adjusted diluted EPS and Free cash flow. Non-GAAP financial measures are not recognized terms under GAAP, are not measures of financial condition or liquidity, and should not be considered as an alternative to profit or loss for the period determined in accordance with GAAP or operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. As a result, you should not consider such measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial measures or results of operations calculated or determined in accordance with GAAP.

We use non-GAAP measures internally in our operational and financial decision-making, to assess the operating performance of our business, to assess performance for employee compensation purposes, and to decide how to allocate resources. We believe that such measures allow us to focus on what we deem to be more reliable indicators of ongoing operating performance and our ability to generate cash flow from operations, and we also believe that investors may find these non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons. Non-GAAP measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies comparable to us, many of which present non-GAAP measures when reporting their results. Further, these measures can be useful in evaluating our performance against our peer companies because we believe they provide users with valuable insight into key components of GAAP financial disclosure. However, non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided within the schedules attached to this release. Our presentation of non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by any of the adjusted items, or that any projections and estimates will be realized in their entirety or at all.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release includes statements that express our opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, or projections regarding future events or future results and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor provisions" of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms "believes," "estimates," "anticipates," "expects," "seeks," "projects," "intends," "plans," "may," "will," or "should" or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts, and include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs, or current expectations concerning, among other things, anticipated cost savings, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies, and the markets in which we operate. Such forward-looking statements are based on available current market material and management's expectations, beliefs, and forecasts concerning future events impacting us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated.

Supplemental Revenues Information

Annualized contract value ("ACV"), at any point in time, represents the annualized value of all active customer subscription-based license agreements for the next 12 months, assuming those coming up for renewal during the measurement period are renewed at their current price level. Our organic ACV grew 1.3% compared to June 30, 2024, primarily driven by price increases. Our total ACV declined 3.5% compared to June 30, 2024, primarily due to the ScholarOne divestiture in November 2024 and the wind-down of certain product groups beginning in the first quarter of 2025.

The following tables present our revenues by type and by segment for the periods indicated, as well as the components driving the changes between periods.

Reconciliations to Certain Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin

Adjusted EBITDA represents Net income (loss) before the Provision (benefit) for income taxes, Depreciation and amortization, and Interest expense, net, adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, impairments, restructuring expenses, the impact of certain non-cash fair value adjustments on financial instruments, acquisition and/or disposal-related transaction costs, unrealized foreign currency gains/losses, legal settlements, and other items that are included in Net income (loss) for the period that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Net income (loss) margin is calculated by dividing Net income (loss) by Revenues. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Revenues.

The following table presents our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and reconciles these non-GAAP measures to our Net income (loss) and Net income (loss) margin for the same periods:

Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS

Adjusted net income represents Net income (loss), adjusted to exclude amortization related to acquired intangible assets, share-based compensation, impairments, restructuring expenses, the impact of certain non-cash fair value adjustments on financial instruments, acquisition and/or disposal-related transaction costs, unrealized foreign currency gains/losses, legal settlements, and other items that are included in net income (loss) for the period that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance and the associated income tax impact of such adjustments.

Adjusted diluted EPS is calculated by dividing Adjusted net income by Adjusted diluted weighted average shares. The Adjusted diluted weighted average shares calculation assumes that all instruments in the calculation are dilutive.

The following tables present our calculation of Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and reconciles these non-GAAP measures to our Net income (loss) and diluted EPS for the same periods:
