Insights

CCC Intelligent Solutions delivered 12% revenue growth to $281.3 million in Q1 2026, while turning a prior‑year net loss into net income of $15.4 million. Adjusted EBITDA rose 21% to $120.2 million, expanding margin to 43%, indicating better operating leverage.

Non‑GAAP metrics also improved: adjusted net income increased to $66.8 million, and gross margins held at a high 74% GAAP and 77% on an adjusted basis. Cash from operations was $57.5 million, supporting free cash flow of $41.6 million despite lower cash on hand and ongoing debt service on about $1.288 billion of total debt.

2026 Revenue Guidance $1.155–$1.163 billion Full-year 2026 outlook
adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA was $120.2 million for the first quarter of 2026"
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.
free cash flow financial
"had free cash flow of $41.6 million during the first quarter of 2026"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
accelerated share repurchase financial
"completed the accelerated share repurchase (ASR) program begun in the fourth quarter of 2025"
An accelerated share repurchase is a deal where a company hires a bank to buy back a large block of its own stock immediately on the open market, with the bank later settling the exact number of shares over time. For investors it matters because the immediate reduction in shares outstanding can raise per‑share earnings and often supports the stock price, but it also uses company cash or borrowing and can change liquidity and future growth funding.
Auto Physical Damage (APD) technical
"covering core Auto Physical Damage (APD) solutions and adoption of its full suite"
Auto physical damage (APD) is insurance coverage that pays to repair or replace a vehicle when it is damaged, stolen, or destroyed by events like accidents, fire, vandalism, or weather. For investors, APD matters because it drives an insurer’s claim payments, reserves and pricing; higher frequency or severity of vehicle damage can reduce profitability and increase volatility, much like a homeowner’s claim history affects a property insurer.
non-GAAP financial measures regulatory
"This press release includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles"
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.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release contains forward-looking statements that are based on beliefs and assumptions"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
Revenue $281.3 million +12% year over year
GAAP Net Income $15.4 million from $17.4 million net loss
Adjusted EBITDA $120.2 million +21% year over year
Adjusted EBITDA Margin 43% up from 39%
Guidance

For full-year 2026, CCC guides revenue to $1.155–$1.163 billion and adjusted EBITDA to $484–$490 million.

“As insurance claims grow more complex, our customers are relying on CCC to support high‑consequence, mission‑critical workflows with greater automation, intelligence, and consistency,” continued Ramamurthy. “AI is expanding the amount of economic work that can be managed through our platform, building on durable core relationships and deeply embedded workflows across the claims ecosystem. As our largest and most sophisticated customers scale adoption, it reinforces our confidence in the durability of our model and the long-term growth opportunity ahead.”

1st Quarter and Recent Business Highlights

 

Large insurer expanded adoption of CCC’s APD platform and AI solutions. CCC expanded its relationship with a top‑five insurer (based on 2024 direct premium written) through a multi‑year enterprise agreement covering core Auto Physical Damage (APD) solutions and adoption of its full suite of AI‑enabled solutions.
Continued expansion of CCC’s Casualty platform with large insurers. CCC signed a multi‑year agreement with a different top‑five insurer to move a significant portion of its Casualty operations onto CCC’s platform. This follows a fourth quarter 2025 decision by a top‑six insurer to move a significant portion of its Casualty business to CCC. Both platform decisions were grounded in long‑standing relationships, proven execution in APD, and CCC’s integrated, analytics‑driven approach to Casualty claims management.

John Schweitzer joins CCC’s Board of Directors. Schweitzer brings more than three decades of leadership experience across enterprise technology and global go‑to‑market organizations, including senior roles at Salesforce, Informatica, SAP, and Oracle. With the addition of Schweitzer, Neil de Crescenzo, and Barak Eilam over the past 18 months, CCC has strengthened its board to support platform scale, AI innovation, and long‑term value creation while preserving neutrality across its ecosystem.
Executed on capital allocation strategy through share repurchases in Q1. CCC completed the accelerated share repurchase (ASR) program begun in the fourth quarter of 2025. Under the ASR, CCC repurchased approximately 43 million shares, utilizing $300 million of the $500 million share repurchase program previously authorized by the Board. Following completion of the ASR, CCC repurchased an additional $100 million of stock in the open market, leaving approximately $100 million available under the authorization.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), including, but not limited to, “adjusted EBITDA,” “adjusted EBITDA margin,” “adjusted net income,” “adjusted operating income,” “adjusted gross profit,” “adjusted gross profit margin,” “adjusted operating expenses,” and “free cash flow” in each case presented on a non-GAAP basis, and certain ratios and other metrics derived therefrom. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. You should be aware that the Company’s calculation of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.

The Company believes these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the reconciliations of these measures below to what the Company believes are the most directly comparable measures evaluated in accordance with GAAP.

This press release also includes certain projections of non-GAAP financial measures. Due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some of the information excluded from these projected measures, together with some of the excluded information not being ascertainable or accessible, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable effort. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable GAAP measures is included and no reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is included for these projections.
