Teradata’s Q2-25 10-Q shows mixed progress. Total revenue fell 6% YoY to $408 m as on-prem subscription erosion and a 19% slump in Consulting offset double-digit cloud growth. Recurring revenue dropped 4% to $354 m, while gross margin narrowed 440 bp to 56.4%, pressured by a higher public-cloud mix and softer services profitability.
Operating income declined 64% to $24 m after $8 m of restructuring/severance and higher R&D investment. Net income slid to $9 m ($0.09 dil. EPS) from $37 m ($0.38) a year ago; effective tax rate was 30.8%.
Strategic cloud metrics remained solid. Public-Cloud ARR rose 17% YoY to $634 m and now represents 43% of Total ARR, which edged up 2% to $1.489 bn. Cloud Net Expansion Rate was 112% (vs. 123%). Cash from operations was $51 m (vs. $70 m); free cash flow was $46 m. Cash & equivalents stand at $369 m with no revolver draws; term-loan balance $469 m (4.17% blended rate).
Balance-sheet highlights: total assets $1.74 bn; leverage modest (net debt ~ $99 m). Deferred revenue grew to $533 m, underscoring backlog visibility. The 2024 restructuring program (target $20-25 m charges, $45-50 m cash outlay) booked an additional $7 m accrual in 1H-25 and $11 m cash payments YTD.
Guidance signals management expects elongated deal cycles and staged cloud migrations to continue; FY-25 effective tax rate estimated at 27.5% and FX impact now ±0.25 pp on revenue.
