Q3 shows slight revenue and profit declines, guidance reiterated; underlying customer metrics mixed but stable.

Third quarter results show total revenues of $1.2 billion, down 2% year-over-year, with professional service revenues down to $169 million (down 8%). Reported net income was $34 million or $0.70 per diluted share, below prior-year $45 million and $0.89 per diluted share; adjusted net income edged lower to $55 million or $1.11 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA fell to $100 million with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.2%.

Management reaffirmed full-year 2025 guidance with a revenue range of $4,950 to $5,140, an adjusted EBITDA margin target band of 7% to 9%, and adjusted diluted EPS guidance of $3.25 to $4.75. The company said it is "tracking towards the high end" of earnings guidance and has nearly completed an aggressive repricing initiative; the release also notes customer NPS reached a company high and retention remains above historical average.

Key dependencies and risks include continued SMB demand pressure, the impact of the repricing program on churn and revenue mix, and trends in average WSEs which declined approximately 6% to ~335,000 in Q3 2025. Watch the upcoming Form 10-Q and the quarterly call for details on the repricing cadence, margin bridge, WSE trajectory, and any changes to the full-year guidance timing within the next few quarters.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the selected financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), we monitor other non-GAAP financial measures that we use to manage our business, to make planning decisions, to allocate resources and to use as performance measures in our executive compensation plan. These key financial measures provide an additional view of our operational performance over the long term and provide information that we use to maintain and grow our business.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is used to enhance the understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance. It is not meant to be considered in isolation from, superior to, or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Measure

Definition

How We Use The Measure

Adjusted EBITDA

• Net income, excluding the effects of:

- income tax provision,

- interest expense, bank fees and other,

- depreciation,

- amortization of intangible assets,

- stock based compensation expense,

- amortization of cloud computing arrangements, and

- restructuring costs.

• Provides period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis and an understanding as to how our management evaluates the effectiveness of our business strategies by excluding certain non-recurring costs, which include restructuring costs, as well as certain non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation and certain impairment charges recognized based on the estimated fair values. We believe these charges are either not directly resulting from our core operations or not indicative of our ongoing operations.

• Enhances comparisons to the prior period and, accordingly, facilitates the development of future projections and earnings growth prospects.

• Provides a measure, among others, used in the determination of incentive compensation for management.

• We also sometimes refer to Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to total revenues.

Adjusted Net Income

• Net income, excluding the effects of:

- effective income tax rate (1),

- stock based compensation expense,

- amortization of intangible assets, net,

- non-cash interest expense,

- restructuring costs, and

- the income tax effect (at our effective tax rate (1)
of these pre-tax adjustments.)

• Provides information to our stockholders and board of directors to understand how our management evaluates our business, to monitor and evaluate our operating results, and analyze profitability of our ongoing operations and trends on a consistent basis by excluding certain non-cash charges.

Free Cash Flow

• Net cash provided by operating activities reduced by capital expenditures

• Provides information on the strength of our liquidity and available cash.

• Provides management with a measure to assist in making planning decisions, evaluate our performance and allocate resources.

• We also sometimes refer to Free Cash Flow Conversion ratio, which is the ratio of free cash flow to Adjusted EBITDA.



(1)

Non-GAAP effective tax rate is 25.0% and 25.6% for the second quarters and full years of 2025 and 2024, which excludes the income tax impact from stock-based compensation, changes in uncertain tax positions, and nonrecurring benefits or expenses from federal legislative changes.
