SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW), the AI platform for business transformation, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2025, with subscription revenues of $3,113 million in Q2 2025, representing 22.5% year-over-year growth and 21.5% in constant currency.

“ServiceNow’s outstanding second quarter results continue our long track record of elite level execution,” said ServiceNow Chairman and CEO Bill McDermott. “Our beat-and-raise quarter showcases the mission-critical nature of the ServiceNow AI Platform. Every business process in every industry is being refactored for agentic AI. ServiceNow has never been more differentiated as a full stack agentic operating system for the enterprise.”

As of June 30, 2025, current remaining performance obligations (“cRPO”), contract revenue that will be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months, was $10.92 billion, representing 24.5% year-over-year growth and 21.5% in constant currency. The company had 89 transactions over $1 million in net new annual contract value (“ACV”) in Q2, and ended the quarter with 528 customers with more than $5 million in ACV, representing approximately 19.5% year-over-year growth.

“Q2 was a spectacular quarter across the board, as we significantly beat the high end of our guidance across all topline and profitability metrics,” said ServiceNow President and CFO Gina Mastantuono. “Now Assist continued to surpass net new ACV expectations, fueled by an increase in both deal volume and size quarter-over-quarter, putting us firmly on track to hit our $1 billion ACV target by 2026. With a robust pipeline and expanding market opportunities, including strong momentum in CRM, we are well-positioned for the second half of the year.”

Financial Outlook

Our guidance includes GAAP and non‑GAAP financial measures. The non‑GAAP growth rates for subscription revenues are adjusted for constant currency by excluding the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations and any gains or losses from foreign currency hedge contracts, and the non-GAAP growth rates for cRPO are adjusted only for constant currency to provide better visibility into the underlying business trends.

ServiceNow has a larger‑than‑average customer cohort scheduled to renew in Q4 2025. As a result, Q3 2025 will experience approximately 2 points of headwinds to cRPO growth as the contractual obligations wind down. We expect that cohort to renew in Q4 2025, at which time those headwinds will subside.

As noted last quarter, U.S. Federal agencies are navigating changes, from tightening budgets to evolving mission demands. We expect those dynamics to continue into Q3 2025. We remain confident that our revised guidance appropriately reflects these trends and continues to set us up for success for the remainder of the year.

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use the following non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

  • Revenues. We adjust revenues and related growth rates for constant currency to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations and any gains or losses from foreign currency hedge contracts that are reported in the current and comparative period. To exclude the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than U.S. Dollars (“USD”) are converted into USD at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparison period (for Q2 2024, the average exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.93 Euros and 1 USD to 0.79 British Pound Sterling (“GBP”)), rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current period (for Q2 2025, the average exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.88 Euros and 1 USD to 0.75 GBP). Guidance for related growth rates is derived by applying the average exchange rates in effect during the comparison period, rather than the exchange rates for the guidance period, adjusted for any foreign currency hedging effects. We believe the presentation of revenues and related growth rates adjusted for constant currency facilitates the comparison of revenues year-over-year.
  • Remaining performance obligations and current remaining performance obligations. We adjust cRPO and remaining performance obligations (“RPO”) and related growth rates for constant currency to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed. To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than USD are converted into USD at the exchange rates in effect at the end of the comparison period (for Q2 2024, the end of the period exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.93 Euros and 1 USD to 0.79 GBP), rather than the actual end of the period exchange rates in effect during the current period (for Q2 2025, the end of the period exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.85 Euros and 1 USD to 0.73 GBP). Guidance for the related growth rate is derived by applying the end of period exchange rates in effect during the comparison period rather than the exchange rates in effect during the guidance period. We believe the presentation of cRPO and RPO and related growth rates adjusted for constant currency facilitates the comparison of cRPO and RPO year-over-year, respectively.
  • Gross profit, Income from operations, Net income and Net income per share - diluted. Our non-GAAP presentation of gross profit, income from operations, and net income measures exclude certain non-cash or non-recurring items, including stock-based compensation expense, amortization of purchased intangibles, legal settlements, business combination and other related costs including compensation expense, impairment of assets, severance costs, and income tax effects and adjustments. We believe these adjustments provide useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of our operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods.
  • Free cash flow. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities plus cash outflows for legal settlements and business combination and other related costs including compensation expense, reduced by purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow margin is calculated as free cash flow as a percentage of total revenues. We believe information regarding free cash flow and free cash flow margin provides useful information to investors because it is an indicator of the strength and performance of our business operations.

Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. We encourage investors to carefully consider our results under GAAP, as well as our supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand our business. Please see the tables included at the end of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results for gross profit, income from operations, net income, net income per share, and free cash flow.

We use a non-GAAP effective tax rate for evaluating our operating results to provide consistency across reporting periods. Based on our long-term projections, we are using a non-GAAP tax rate of 20% for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. This non-GAAP tax rate could change for various reasons including significant changes in our geographic earnings mix or fundamental tax law changes in major jurisdictions in which we operate.
