Jamf (NASDAQ: JAMF), the Apple device management specialist, has announced a comprehensive strategic reinvestment plan alongside expectations to exceed Q2 2025 guidance.

The restructuring involves a 6.4% workforce reduction, expected to result in charges of $11.0-12.5 million primarily in Q3 2025. The company anticipates exceeding its previous Q2 2025 guidance of $167.5-169.5 million in revenue and $29.5-30.5 million in non-GAAP operating income. The strategic plan implementation is expected to be substantially complete by the end of Q4 2025.

Insights

Jamf announces strategic refocus with workforce reductions while exceeding Q2 guidance, suggesting short-term cost but long-term potential.

Jamf is implementing a significant strategic pivot that combines revenue outperformance with organizational restructuring. The company is exceeding its Q2 2025 guidance on both revenue (above $169.5 million) and non-GAAP operating income (above $30.5 million), demonstrating current business strength despite the announced changes.

The strategic reinvestment plan has two key components. First, Jamf is realigning its go-to-market approach by prioritizing enterprise customers that deliver higher growth, stronger retention, and better ROI. Simultaneously, they're simplifying their SMB approach through channel partners and automation. Second, they're accelerating AI investments across their product platform and internal operations to enhance productivity.

To fund these initiatives, Jamf announced a 6.4% workforce reduction, primarily across go-to-market and other functions, while also reducing organizational layers. This will result in restructuring charges of $11-12.5 million, mostly in Q3 2025, with implementation expected to complete by Q4 2025.

The company's decision to exclude these restructuring charges from non-GAAP measures suggests management views this as a one-time investment rather than an ongoing operational issue. More importantly, the fact that Jamf is making these changes while exceeding financial expectations indicates this is a proactive strategic shift rather than a reactive cost-cutting exercise.

This reorganization appears designed to sharpen Jamf's focus on its most profitable customer segments while streamlining operations for improved efficiency. The increased investment in AI capabilities aligns with the broader industry trend of leveraging automation for operational improvements and enhanced product offerings.

Q2 2025 Financial Results Expected to Exceed High End of Guidance Ranges

MINNEAPOLIS, July 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jamf (NASDAQ: JAMF), the standard in managing and securing Apple at work, today announced a strategic reinvestment plan to help drive long-term growth, improve operational efficiency and enhance shareholder value.

Jamf’s recent comprehensive systems update, spanning both front- and back-office operations, has provided enhanced insights into Jamf’s business and growth opportunities. As a result, Jamf is embarking on a strategic reinvestment plan to support the continued success of the business. This plan includes strategic reallocation of resources to allow for investment in areas with the highest potential to fuel growth and drive additional operational leverage in the business. Two key focus areas are:

1. Go-To-Market Enhancement

Jamf is taking steps to realign its go-to-market organization to allow for investment in areas that have the greatest opportunity for growth and align with our platform strategy via the Jamf for Mac, Jamf for Mobile, Jamf for K-12, and Jamf for SMB solutions.

  • Enhance growth in Enterprise: increasing investment and resources to support Enterprise customers, which deliver higher growth, stronger retention, and greater return on investment. 
  • Simplify approach to SMB: scaling through the channel while also developing a more automated customer solution and experience to deliver greater customer value and improve operational efficiency.

2. AI Investments

In addition to the efficiencies experienced over the last year from deploying AI within the sales, product and customer success groups, Jamf is further accelerating investments in AI capabilities that improve the customer experience in the Jamf product platform and drive further productivity enhancements by accelerating delivery of AI- and automation-driven solutions across the entire organization.

In order to facilitate the strategic reinvestment plan, the Company will reduce its workforce by approximately 6.4%. The Company will reduce roles across its go-to-market and other functions to align with the strategic reinvestment plan, as well as reducing spans and layers throughout the organization.

Jamf currently estimates that it will incur charges of approximately $11.0 to $12.5 million in connection with the workforce reduction, consisting of cash expenditures for notice period and severance payments, employee benefits, and related costs. The Company expects that most of the charges will be incurred in the third quarter of 2025 and that the execution of the Plan will be substantially complete by the end of the fourth quarter of 2025. The Company intends to exclude the charges associated with the workforce reduction from certain of its non-GAAP financial measures. 

Q2 2025 Financial Results Expected to Exceed High End of Guidance Ranges

Jamf expects to exceed the high end of the guidance ranges previously issued with respect to the second quarter of 2025. On May 6, 2025, the company issued the following guidance ranges for the second quarter of 2025:

The Company will provide more details regarding the strategic reinvestment plan and its financial impact on subsequent periods during its second quarter 2025 earnings call to be held on August 7, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes reference to non-GAAP Operating Income, a non-GAAP financial measure, which reflects operating income (loss) excluding certain non-operational or non-recurring items, including amortization expense, stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expense, payroll taxes related to stock-based compensation, system transformation costs, and other special or non-recurring items. Jamf believes that non-GAAP financial measures, may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with Jamf’s past financial performance, provide additional understanding of factors and trends affecting Jamf’s business, and assist in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP information to supplement their GAAP result. Non-GAAP Operating Income is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for operating income (loss) presented in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude certain expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Jamf’s financial statements. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by Jamf’s management about which expenses are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Further, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized. It may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
