IZEA Worldwide, Inc. reported Q2 2026 revenue of $5.8 million, down 36% from $9.1 million in Q2 2025, reflecting a strategic shift toward larger enterprise customers, softer enterprise demand, and timing of campaign launches. Managed Services bookings were $4.5 million, a 19% decline, as several large accounts saw delayed contract awards. Total costs and expenses fell 18% to $6.9 million, driven by lower sales and marketing and general and administrative spending aligned with an enterprise-focused model.
The company recorded a Q2 2026 net loss of $0.7 million, or $(0.04) per share, versus net income of $1.2 million, or $0.07 per share, a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA was $(0.4) million, compared with $1.3 million in Q2 2025.

IZEA Worldwide reported Q1 2026 revenue of $6.6 million, down 18% from $8.0 million a year earlier, mainly because it exited smaller, lower-margin SMB customers to focus on larger enterprise accounts. Managed Services bookings were $6.3 million, a 17% decline tied to contract timing with major clients.
Total costs and expenses fell 10% to $7.7 million, but the company still posted a net loss of $0.8 million, or $(0.04) per share, compared with a $0.1 million loss, or $(0.01) per share, in Q1 2025. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $0.5 million versus a $0.1 million loss.
IZEA ended March 31, 2026 with $46.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and no long-term debt, after a $4.4 million cash decline during the quarter. Management highlighted the completion of its SMB exit, a stronger enterprise client base, and the launch of its AI-powered ZED platform as foundations for future growth.
IZEA Worldwide, Inc. reported a sharp profitability turnaround for 2025 despite lower sales. Full-year revenue was $31.2 million compared to $35.9 million in 2024, largely due to the 2024 divestiture of Hoozu and the exit of lower-margin customers.
Full-year net income was $42,326 versus a loss of $18.9 million, while Adjusted EBITDA improved from an $11.1 million loss to a $0.7 million gain, reflecting a leaner cost structure. In Q4 2025, revenue was $6.1 million and the net loss narrowed to $1.2 million from $4.6 million a year earlier.
Total costs and expenses in Q4 fell 46% to $7.7 million, driven by lower cost of revenue and reduced sales, marketing, and general and administrative spending. The company ended December 31, 2025 with $50.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, no long-term debt, and had repurchased 561,950 shares for $1.4 million under its buyback program.
