Rhea-AI Filing Summary

PagerDuty, Inc. (PD) reported second quarter fiscal 2027 results for the period ended July 31, 2026, showing modest top-line growth but solid profitability and cash generation. Revenue was $124.4 million, up 0.8% year over year, while operating income rose to $10.2 million with an 8.2% operating margin. Non-GAAP operating income was $29.5 million with a 23.7% non-GAAP operating margin. Net income attributable to common stockholders was $4.7 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, marking a fifth consecutive quarter of GAAP profitability. Free cash flow was $32.8 million, and cash, cash equivalents, and investments totaled $470.0 million. Annual Recurring Revenue reached $501 million, with a dollar-based net retention rate of 98%.

The company is implementing a restructuring that reduces current headcount by about 15% as part of a global scaling initiative to align resources with strategic priorities. PagerDuty expects to incur non-recurring charges of $5.5–$7.5 million, primarily severance and related costs, mostly in the third quarter of fiscal 2027, with implementation substantially complete by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2027. For the third quarter, PagerDuty guides to revenue of $123–$125 million and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.34–$0.36; for full fiscal 2027 it expects revenue of $491.5–$496.5 million and non-GAAP operating margin of 25–26%.

Positive

  • Non-GAAP profitability and margins strong: Q2 non-GAAP operating income was $29.5 million with a 23.7% margin, and full-year non-GAAP operating margin guidance is 25–26%, indicating sustained efficiency.
  • Consistent GAAP profitability and cash generation: Net income attributable to common stockholders was $4.7 million in Q2, the fifth consecutive profitable quarter, and free cash flow reached $32.8 million with $470.0 million in cash, cash equivalents, and investments.
  • Growing recurring revenue base: Annual Recurring Revenue reached $501 million with a dollar-based net retention rate of 98%, showing a large, sticky subscription base despite modest overall revenue growth.

Negative

  • Revenue growth nearly flat: Q2 revenue grew only 0.8% year over year to $124.4 million, indicating a significant slowdown in top-line expansion.
  • GAAP net income down year over year: Net income attributable to common stockholders declined to $4.7 million from $9.8 million in the prior-year quarter despite higher operating income.
  • Significant workforce reduction and restructuring costs: The company is reducing headcount by about 15% and expects $5.5–$7.5 million in non-recurring charges, which may create operational disruption and near-term expense volatility.

Filing Explained

Restructuring completion may slip by jurisdiction; six-month financing cash use included 72,933 thousand dollars of buybacks and 57,500 thousand of note repayment.

The restructuring is not yet fully complete: potential position eliminations may extend beyond the expected fourth-quarter fiscal 2027 completion date because legal requirements vary by jurisdiction.

The company also states that actual restructuring expenses may differ materially from the $5.5 million–$7.5 million estimate, so the disclosed charge and completion timing remain estimates rather than settled amounts.

For the six months ended July 31, 2026, financing cash use included $72,933 thousand of common-stock repurchases and $57,500 thousand of convertible senior-note repayments, alongside $3,479 thousand from the employee stock purchase plan and $1,792 thousand from option exercises.

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits Exhibits
Financial statements, pro forma financial information, or exhibit attachments filed with this report.
Q2 2027 Revenue $124.4 million Revenue for the three months ended July 31, 2026; 0.8% year-over-year increase
Q2 2027 Operating Income $10.2 million Income from operations for the three months ended July 31, 2026; up from $3.6 million a year earlier
Q2 2027 Non-GAAP Operating Margin 23.7% Non-GAAP operating income of $29.5 million on $124.4 million revenue
Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders, Q2 2027 $4.7 million Net income attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders for the three months ended July 31, 2026
Free Cash Flow, Q2 2027 $32.8 million Free cash flow for the three months ended July 31, 2026
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments $470.0 million Balance as of July 31, 2026
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) $501 million ARR as of July 31, 2026
Headcount Reduction 15% Approximate reduction in current headcount under restructuring initiative announced August 26, 2026
Annual Recurring Revenue financial
"ARR as of July 31, 2026 was $501 million."
Annual recurring revenue is the predictable amount of money a company expects to earn each year from ongoing customer subscriptions or contracts. It helps businesses understand how much steady income they can count on, much like a subscription service that charges customers every month or year. This figure is important because it shows the company's stability and growth potential.
dollar-based net retention rate financial
"Dollar-based net retention rate was 98% as of July 31, 2026."
Dollar-based net retention rate measures how much recurring revenue a company keeps and grows from its existing customers over a set period, after accounting for upgrades, downgrades, and churn. Think of it like checking whether a group of current customers are spending more, the same, or less this year compared with last year; investors use it as a thermometer for revenue health and the business’s ability to expand sales without finding new customers.
non-GAAP operating margin financial
"Non-GAAP operating income was $29.5 million; non-GAAP operating margin was 23.7%."
Non-GAAP operating margin is a way companies show how much profit they make from their main business activities, excluding certain expenses or income they consider unusual or non-recurring. It helps investors see how well the company is performing in its normal operations, without the effects of one-time costs or gains that might distort the picture.
free cash flow financial
"Net cash provided by operating activities was $36.9 million; free cash flow was $32.8 million."
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.
Convertible senior notes financial
"Convertible senior notes, net, non-current | 396,930"
Convertible senior notes are a type of loan that a company issues to investors, which can be turned into company shares later on. They are called "senior" because they are paid back before other debts if the company runs into trouble. This allows investors to earn interest like a loan but also have the chance to own part of the company if its value rises.
redeemable non-controlling interest financial
"Redeemable non-controlling interest | 14,943"
A redeemable non-controlling interest is a minority ownership stake in a subsidiary that can be sold back to or bought out by the parent company or subsidiary at a predetermined time or under certain conditions. For investors, it matters because this claim can act like a future cash obligation or potential dilution, changing the parent’s reported equity, net income allocation, and near‑term cash needs—much like a few partners in a small business who can force the owner to buy them out.
Revenue $124.4 million Increased 0.8% year over year from $123.4 million

Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

On August 26, 2026, the Company announced that it is advancing global scaling initiatives as part of its ongoing actions to improve operational efficiency and better align resources with the Company’s strategic priorities. The changes include reallocating certain roles and realigning teams to continue to improve operational resiliency and agility. The immediate impact is a reduction in the Company's current headcount of approximately 15%.

The Company estimates that it will incur non-recurring charges in a range of $5.5 million to $7.5 million in connection with the headcount reductions, primarily consisting of severance payments, notice pay (where applicable), employee benefits payments and related costs. The Company expects that the majority of the restructuring charges will be incurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2027 and that the implementation of the headcount reductions, including cash payments, will be substantially complete by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2027.

Potential position eliminations are subject to legal requirements that vary by jurisdiction, which may extend this process beyond the fourth quarter of fiscal 2027 in certain cases. The charges that the Company expects to incur are subject to a number of assumptions, including legal requirements in various jurisdictions, and actual expenses may differ materially from the estimates disclosed above.

These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. Please refer to the section titled “Forward-Looking Statements” below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.

PagerDuty has not provided the GAAP equivalent or reconciled its expectations as to non-GAAP net income per share attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders or our outlook for non-GAAP operating margin to GAAP net income per share attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders or GAAP operating margin, respectively, because certain reconciling items such as stock-based compensation expense, employer taxes related to employee stock transactions, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring costs, gains or losses on extinguishment of convertible senior notes, adjustment attributable to redeemable non-controlling interest, and income tax effects and adjustments are out of PagerDuty’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, such reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that these reconciling items could have a significant effect on PagerDuty’s future GAAP results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and the accompanying tables contain the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP sales and marketing, non-GAAP general and administrative, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders, non-GAAP net income per share attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders, free cash flow, and free cash flow margin.

PagerDuty believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance and can assist in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in PagerDuty’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by PagerDuty’s management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation is provided below for each historical non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP.

Specifically, PagerDuty excludes the following from its historical and prospective non-GAAP financial measures, as applicable:

Stock-based compensation: PagerDuty utilizes stock-based compensation to attract and retain employees. It is principally aimed at aligning their interests with those of its stockholders and at long-term retention, rather than to address operational performance for any particular period. As a result, stock-based compensation expenses vary for reasons that are generally unrelated to financial and operational performance in any particular period.

Employer taxes related to employee stock transactions: PagerDuty views the amount of employer taxes related to its employee stock transactions as an expense that is dependent on its stock price, employee exercise and other award disposition activity, and other factors that are beyond PagerDuty’s control. As a result, employer taxes related to employee stock transactions vary for reasons that are generally unrelated to financial and operational performance in any particular period.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets: PagerDuty views amortization of acquired intangible assets as items arising from pre-acquisition activities determined at the time of an acquisition. While these intangible assets are evaluated for impairment regularly, amortization of the cost of purchased intangibles is an expense that is not typically affected by operations during any particular period.

Acquisition-related expenses: PagerDuty views acquisition-related expenses, such as transaction costs, acquisition-related retention payments, and acquisition-related asset impairment, as events that are not necessarily reflective of operational performance during a period. In particular, PagerDuty believes the consideration of measures that exclude such expenses can assist in the comparison of operational performance in different periods which may or may not include such expenses.

Amortization of debt issuance costs: The imputed interest rates of the Company’s convertible senior notes (the “2025 Notes” and the “2028 Notes” or, collectively, the “Notes”) was approximately 1.91% for the 2025 Notes and 2.13% for the 2028 Notes. This is a result of the debt issuance costs, which reduce the carrying value of the convertible debt instruments. The debt issuance costs are amortized as interest expense. The expense for the amortization of the debt issuance costs is a non-cash item, and we believe the exclusion of this interest expense will provide for a more useful comparison of our operational performance in different periods.



Restructuring costs: PagerDuty views restructuring costs, such as employee severance-related costs, as events that are not necessarily reflective of operational performance during a period. In particular, PagerDuty believes the consideration of measures that exclude such expenses can assist in the comparison of operational performance in different periods which may or may not include such expenses.

Shareholder matters: PagerDuty views certain charges, including third-party legal, consulting, and advisory fees, related to shareholder activity that are outside of the ordinary course of our business and expenses related to a cooperation agreement as events that are not necessarily reflective of operational performance during a period. PagerDuty believes that such charges do not have a direct correlation to the operations of the Company’s business and may vary in size depending on the timing, results, and resolution of such shareholder matters. The consideration of measures that exclude such expenses can assist in the comparison of operational performance in periods which may or may not include such expenses.

Executive transition costs: We exclude amounts paid to the Company’s former executives upon departure under the terms of their transition agreements, including continued base salary payments made during their transition periods, acceleration of stock-based compensation, continued vesting of restricted stock units and performance stock units, and legal and consulting fees associated with the transition. Also excluded from our non-GAAP measures are recruiting costs related to the search for new executives. These costs represent expenses that are not indicative of our ongoing operating expenses. We further believe that excluding the executive transition costs from our non-GAAP results is useful to investors in that it allows for period-over-period comparability.

Adjustment attributable to redeemable non-controlling interest: PagerDuty adjusts the value of redeemable non-controlling interest of its joint venture PagerDuty K.K. according to the operating agreement. PagerDuty believes this adjustment is not reflective of operational performance during a period and exclusion of such adjustments can assist in comparison of operational performance in different periods.

Income tax effects and adjustments: Based on PagerDuty’s financial outlook for fiscal 2027, PagerDuty is utilizing a projected non-GAAP tax rate of 20%. For fiscal 2026, PagerDuty used a projected non-GAAP tax rate of 22%. PagerDuty uses a projected non-GAAP tax rate in order to provide better consistency across the interim reporting periods by eliminating the impact of non-recurring and period specific items, which can vary in size and frequency. PagerDuty’s estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income is determined annually and may be adjusted during the year to take into account events or trends that PagerDuty believes materially impact the estimated annual rate including, but not limited to, significant changes resulting from tax legislation, material changes in the geographic mix of revenue and expenses and other significant events.

Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin

We define non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit excluding the following expenses typically included in cost of revenue: stock-based compensation expense, employer taxes related to employee stock transactions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and restructuring costs. We define non-GAAP gross margin as non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenue.

Non-GAAP operating expenses

We define non-GAAP operating expenses as operating expenses excluding stock-based compensation expense, employer taxes related to employee stock transactions, acquisition-related expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring costs, shareholder matters, and executive transition costs, which are not necessarily reflective of operational performance during a given period.



Non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin

We define non-GAAP operating income as income (loss) from operations excluding stock-based compensation expense, employer taxes related to employee stock transactions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring costs, shareholder matters, and executive transition costs, which are not necessarily reflective of operational performance during a given period. We define non-GAAP operating margin as non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of revenue.

Non-GAAP net income attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders

We define non-GAAP net income attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders as net income attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders excluding stock-based compensation expense, employer taxes related to employee stock transactions, amortization of debt issuance costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring costs, shareholder matters, executive transition costs, adjustment attributable to redeemable non-controlling interest, and income tax effects and adjustments, which are not necessarily reflective of operational performance during a given period.

Non-GAAP net income per share, basic and diluted

We define non-GAAP net income per share, basic as non-GAAP net income attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders divided by weighted average shares outstanding at the end of the reporting period. We define non-GAAP net income per share, diluted as non-GAAP net income attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding at the end of the reporting period.

Free cash flow and free cash flow margin

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, less cash used for purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of software costs. We define free cash flow margin as free cash flow as a percentage of revenue. In addition to the reasons stated above, we believe that free cash flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures our ability to generate or use cash in excess of our capital investments in property and equipment in order to enhance the strength of our balance sheet and further invest in our business and potential strategic initiatives. A limitation of the utility of free cash flow as a measure of our liquidity is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for the period. We use free cash flow in conjunction with traditional U.S. GAAP measures as part of our overall assessment of our liquidity, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts and to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies. There are a number of limitations related to the use of free cash flow as compared to net cash provided by operating activities, including that free cash flow includes capital expenditures, the benefits of which are realized in periods subsequent to those when expenditures are made.

PagerDuty encourages investors to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results, including this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate PagerDuty’s business.

Please see the reconciliation tables at the end of this release for the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most-comparable GAAP financial measures.
