News Explained

At June 30, cash was $170,866 thousand, while term-loan balances were $8,750 thousand current and $151,885 thousand long-term.

Definitive Healthcare reported its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. For existing holders, the structural update is the company’s reported liquidity, debt, and share base at quarter-end.

The company defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding specified items such as equity-based compensation, transaction costs, impairments, and other non-core expenses; it says these measures are supplemental and not substitutes for GAAP results or operating cash flow.

At June 30, cash and equivalents were $170,866 thousand, while current and long-term term-loan balances were $8,750 thousand and $151,885 thousand, respectively. Class A shares issued and outstanding totaled 106,405,766, and Class B shares totaled 38,094,660.

For the forward outlook, the release says it does not provide quantitative GAAP reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP measures because excluded items may materially and unpredictably affect future GAAP results.

Key Terms

adjusted ebitda, unlevered free cash flow, adjusted net income per diluted share, tax receivable agreement, +1 more
5 terms
adjusted ebitda financial
"Adjusted EBITDA was $14.6 million, or 26% of revenue"
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.
unlevered free cash flow financial
"Unlevered Free Cash Flow was $11.6 million in the quarter."
Unlevered free cash flow is the cash a company generates from its core business after paying operating costs and reinvesting in the business, but before any interest or debt repayments. It shows how much cash would be available to all providers of capital—owners and lenders alike—and helps investors compare underlying business performance and value companies without the distortion of different debt levels, like judging a car’s fuel efficiency before adding cargo weight.
adjusted net income per diluted share financial
"Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share is expected to be $0.04 to $0.05"
A per-share profit figure that starts with reported net income, removes one-time or unusual items and non-recurring charges or gains, then divides the adjusted profit by the number of shares after allowing for potential stock dilution. It helps investors see the company’s recurring, underlying earnings power by showing how much of the “clean” profit each share would get, like cutting a pie after taking out irregular slices so comparisons are fairer.
tax receivable agreement financial
"Tax Receivable Agreement liability"
A contract in which a company agrees to pay a specified party (often former owners after a spinoff or IPO) a share of future tax savings the company realizes. Think of it like agreeing to share a future tax refund with someone who helped create the conditions for that refund. For investors it matters because those payments reduce the cash the company can use for dividends, buybacks, or reinvestment, and therefore affect valuation and returns.
non-gaap financial measures financial
"This earnings release contains financial measures that have not been prepared"
Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.

Second Quarter Revenue Within Guidance Range; Profit Surpasses Expectations

FRAMINGHAM, Mass., Aug. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Definitive Healthcare Corp. (“Definitive Healthcare” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: DH), an industry leader in healthcare market data and analytics, today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. 

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights:

  • Revenue was $55.2 million, a decrease of 9% from $60.8 million in Q2 2025. 
  • Net Loss was $(7.5) million, or (14)% of revenue, compared to $(9.3) million, or (15)% of revenue in Q2 2025.
  • Adjusted Net Income was $7.5 million, compared to $9.7 million in Q2 2025.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $14.6 million, or 26% of revenue, compared to $18.7 million, or 31% of revenue in Q2 2025.
  • Cash Flow from Operations was $11.5 million in the quarter.
  • Unlevered Free Cash Flow was $11.6 million in the quarter.

"Definitive Healthcare delivered another quarter in line with or above our guidance ranges, reflecting continued discipline alongside targeted investment in our growth priorities," said Kevin Coop, CEO of Definitive Healthcare. "We're encouraged by our second consecutive quarter of year-over-year improvement in net dollar retention, strong win-back momentum across our end markets, and the launch of Turbo, our new AI-powered healthcare intelligence platform, which marks a significant milestone in our innovation strategy. We remain confident that our focus on data quality and customer success is the right path to return to sustained, predictable growth, while continuing to generate strong profitability and cash flow."

Recent Business and Operating Highlights: 

Customer Wins

In the second quarter, Definitive Healthcare continued to win new logos and expansion opportunities across all end-markets, by providing the data, insights and integrations that drive their critical business use cases. Customer wins for the quarter included:

  • A diversified-business customer returned to Definitive Healthcare in a six-figure, three-year win-back enterprise agreement. This win reinforces a recurring theme: customers who believe a lower-cost alternative will be "good enough" ultimately recognize that the cost of an inferior dataset outweighs the savings, validating the business value our data and products deliver and reaffirming that our focus on data quality and service, rather than price, is the right path forward.
  • One long-standing population-intelligence customer expanded from an initial test into a total activation commitment of several hundred thousand dollars, illustrating that activation growth is now being driven not only by new direct customers but also by rising adoption and spend across our agency ecosystem, which gives us a broader, more scalable path forward.

Business Outlook 

Based on information as of August 10, 2026, the Company is issuing the following financial guidance.

Third Quarter 2026:

  • Revenue is expected to be in the range of $54.0$55.0 million. 
  • Adjusted Operating Income is expected to be in the range of $10.5$11.5 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $13.5$14.5 million, and 25%27% adjusted EBITDA Margin. 
  • Adjusted Net Income is expected to be $5.5$6.5 million
  • Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share is expected to be $0.04 to $0.05 per share on approximately 145.1 million weighted-average shares outstanding. 

Full Year 2026:

  • Revenue is expected to be in the range of $220.0$222.0 million
  • Adjusted Operating Income is expected to be in the range of $45.5$47.5 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $57.0$59.0 million, and 26%27% adjusted EBITDA Margin.
  • Adjusted Net Income is expected to be $27.0$29.0 million
  • Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share is expected to be $0.18 to $0.20 per share on approximately 144.6 million weighted-average shares outstanding. 

We do not provide a quantitative reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures; in particular, the effects of equity-based compensation expense, taxes and amounts under the tax receivable agreement, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, and transaction, integration, and restructuring expenses. We expect the variability of these excluded items may have a significant and potentially unpredictable impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Forward-Looking Statements 

This press release includes forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Such statements are provided under the “safe harbor” protection of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and can generally be identified by words or phrases written in the future tense and/or preceded by words such as “likely,” “will,” “should,” “may,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “continues,” “assumes,” “would,” “potentially” or similar words or variations thereof, or the negative thereof, references to future periods, or by the inclusion of forecasts or projections, but these terms are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding our outlook, financial guidance, the benefits of our healthcare commercial intelligence solutions, our overall future prospects, customer behaviors and use of our solutions, the market, industry and macroeconomic environment, our plans to improve our operational and financial performance and our business, our ability to execute on our plans, customer growth, including our upsell and cross-sell opportunities, and our ability to successfully transition executive leadership.

Forward-looking statements in this press release are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include the following: global geopolitical tension and difficult macroeconomic conditions; actual or potential changes in international, national, regional and local economic, business and financial conditions, including tariffs, sanctions, trade barriers, recessions, fluctuating inflation, high interest rates, volatility in the capital markets and related market uncertainty; our inability to acquire new customers and generate additional revenue from existing customers; our inability to generate sales of subscriptions to our platform or any decline in demand for our platform and the data we offer; the competitiveness of the market in which we operate and our ability to compete effectively; the failure to maintain and improve our platform, or develop new modules or insights for healthcare commercial intelligence; the inability to obtain and maintain accurate, comprehensive or reliable data, which could result in reduced demand for our platform; the loss of our access to our data providers; the failure to respond to advances in healthcare commercial intelligence; an inability to attract new customers and expand subscriptions of current customers; our ability to successfully transition executive leadership; and the possibility that our security measures are breached or unauthorized access to data is otherwise obtained.

Additional factors or events that could cause our actual performance to differ from these forward-looking statements may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, our actual financial condition, results of operations, future performance and business may vary in material respects from the performance projected in these forward-looking statements. 

For additional discussion of factors that could impact our operational and financial results, refer to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2026 that will be filed following this earnings release, as well as our Current Reports on Form 8-K and other subsequent SEC filings, which are or will be available on the Investor Relations page of our website at ir.definitivehc.com and on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC”) website at www.sec.gov.

All information in this press release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update this information, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release contains financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including Unlevered Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share. We believe that these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for an evaluation of the Company with a focus on the performance of its core operations, including providing meaningful comparisons of financial results to historical periods and to the financial results of peer and competitor companies. Our use of these non-GAAP terms may vary from the use of similar terms by other companies in our industry and accordingly may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures are intended as supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to loss from operations, net loss, earnings per share, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as measures of operating cash flows or liquidity. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included at the end of this press release. In evaluating our non-GAAP financial measures, you should be aware that in the future, we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in these presentations.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not required by or prepared in accordance with GAAP. These are supplemental financial measures of our performance and should not be considered substitutes for cash provided by operating activities, loss from operations, net loss, net income margin, gross profit, gross margin, or any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP. 

Reconciliations to Certain Non-GAAP Measures

Unlevered Free Cash Flow

We define Unlevered Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property, equipment and data assets, plus cash interest expense, and cash payments related to transaction, integration, and restructuring related expenses, earnouts, and other non-core items paid in cash. Unlevered Free Cash Flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since, among other things, we have mandatory debt service requirements. 

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define EBITDA as earnings before debt-related costs, including interest expense (income), net, and loss on partial extinguishment of debt, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted to exclude certain items of a significant or unusual nature, including other income, net, equity-based compensation, transaction, integration, and restructuring expenses, goodwill impairments and other non-core expenses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to assess the profitability of our operations. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin provide useful information to help investors to assess our operating performance because these metrics eliminate non-core and unusual items and non-cash expenses, which we do not consider indicative of ongoing operational performance. We believe that these metrics are helpful to investors in measuring the profitability of our operations on a consolidated level.

Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin

We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit excluding acquisition-related amortization and equity-based compensation costs and Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of revenue. Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to assess our operations. We exclude acquisition-related depreciation and amortization expenses as they have no direct correlation to the cost of operating our business on an ongoing basis. A small portion of equity-based compensation is included in cost of revenue in accordance with GAAP but is excluded from our Adjusted Gross Profit calculations due to its non-cash nature.

Adjusted Operating Income

We define Adjusted Operating Income as loss from operations plus acquisition related amortization, equity-based compensation, transaction, integration, and restructuring expenses, goodwill impairments and other non-core expenses.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share

We define Adjusted Net Income as Adjusted Operating Income less interest expense net, recurring income tax (provision) benefit, foreign currency (loss) gain, and tax impacts of adjustments. We define Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted outstanding shares. 

In evaluating our non-GAAP financial measures, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in these presentations.
