Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Upland Software reported sharply lower revenue but improved profitability in Q4 2025. Total revenue was $49.3 million, down 28% from $68.0 million a year earlier, mainly because of divestitures completed in early 2025. Subscription and support revenue fell 27% to $46.7 million.

Despite the revenue decline, Upland posted GAAP net income of $1.1 million versus a $3.4 million loss in Q4 2024, while net loss attributable to common stockholders narrowed to $0.4 million, or $0.01 per share. Adjusted EBITDA rose to $15.3 million, or a 31% margin, up from $14.9 million and a 22% margin. Free cash flow was $7.2 million, and cash on hand at quarter-end was $29.4 million.

For Q1 2026, Upland expects revenue of $47.0–$50.0 million, about 24% lower year over year at the midpoint, with Adjusted EBITDA of $11.9–$13.4 million and a 26% margin. For full-year 2026, it guides to revenue of $194.2–$206.2 million, down 8% at the midpoint, and Adjusted EBITDA of $52.6–$58.6 million, down 4% at the midpoint but with margin improving to 28%. Management highlights growing traction in its AI-powered portfolio, 110 new customers in Q4, and multiple third-party recognitions for its AI knowledge and proposal management products.

Positive

  • Profitability and margin improvement: Q4 2025 produced GAAP net income of $1.1 million versus a prior-year loss, while Adjusted EBITDA margin rose to 31%, and full-year 2026 guidance calls for further margin expansion to 28% despite lower revenue.

Negative

  • Material revenue contraction and leverage: Q4 2025 revenue fell 28% year over year, and 2026 revenue is guided down 8% at the midpoint, while the company remains highly leveraged with over $230 million of notes payable and a continuing cumulative GAAP net loss.

Insights

Revenue is shrinking from divestitures while margins and cash generation improve.

Upland’s Q4 2025 revenue declined 28% year over year to $49.3 million, reflecting businesses sold in early 2025. Subscription and support revenue fell similarly, yet GAAP results swung to a $1.1 million profit from a prior loss, and Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 31%.

Full-year 2025 still shows a sizable GAAP net loss of $38.9 million, driven by interest expense, divestiture losses, and prior impairments. The balance sheet carries notes payable of $232.4 million (current and long term combined) against $29.4 million of cash and a stockholders’ deficit, underscoring ongoing leverage risk.

Guidance for 2026 points to further top-line contraction—revenue down about 8% at the midpoint—but with Adjusted EBITDA margin rising to 28%. Actual outcomes will depend on execution in AI-focused products, customer retention after divestitures, and the company’s ability to manage debt service and interest costs within its cash flow profile.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights
Total revenue was $49.3 million, a decrease of 28% from $68.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to divestitures completed in Q1 and Q2 of 2025.
Subscription and support revenue was $46.7 million, a decrease of 27% from $64.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to divestitures completed in Q1 and Q2 of 2025.
GAAP net income was $1.1 million compared to a GAAP net loss of $3.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders was $0.4 million compared to GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders of $4.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. GAAP net loss per share attributable to common stockholders was $0.01 per share, compared to a GAAP net loss per share attributable to common stockholders of $0.18 per share in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA was $15.3 million, or 31% of total revenue, compared to $14.9 million, or 22% of total revenue, in the fourth quarter of 2024.
GAAP operating cash flow was $7.3 million, compared to GAAP operating cash flow of $9.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Free cash flow was $7.2 million, compared to free cash flow of $9.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Cash on hand as of the end of the fourth quarter of 2025 was $29.4 million.

"With our Q4 results, we are pleased to report that revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and margins all came in as expected, while free cash flow was stronger than expected, bringing our 2025 free cash flow to $24.4 million,” said Jack McDonald, Upland’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our AI product portfolio continues to gain traction, marked by continued major customer contract renewals, expansions, and new customer wins."

Fourth Quarter Business Highlights
We welcomed 110 new customers to Upland in the fourth quarter, including 15 new major customers. We also expanded relationships with 199 existing customers, 27 of which were major expansions.
We earned 49 badges in G2’s Winter 2026 market reports, highlighting consistent value and customer validation for our products. Upland BA Insight, our AI enablement solution, increased earned badges this season, while AI-powered proposal management software, Upland Qvidian, continued to deliver impactful results. Upland Panviva also increased its badge count and Upland RightAnswers maintained its recognitions, proving ongoing value to customers leveraging AI-powered knowledge management.



Upland Qvidian released its first annual report on the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) throughout the proposal industry. The 2025 AI Adoption in Proposal Management: Trends and Observation Report is a technology-agnostic, industry-wide study that collects results and observations from global professionals working daily to adopt artificial intelligence in their proposal processes. Building on Qvidian’s near 50 years of industry-leading experience, the report surveyed hundreds of global RFP and proposal professionals to examine current industry trends. Findings in the report spotlight the areas where AI drives real transformation and growth, while addressing the real-world concerns professionals face during AI implementation.
Upland was recognized as a Major Player in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide General-Purpose Knowledge Discovery Software 2025 Vendor Assessment (doc # US53011225, November 2025), published in November 2025. Upland believes its recognition in this report highlights the value of its AI-powered knowledge management solution, Upland RightAnswers, driving scalable, smarter support for enterprise contact centers and help desks.
Upland Software was recognized in the Gartner® Market Guide for RFP Response Management Applications, published on October 29, 2025.(1) Upland believes its inclusion in this report showcases the impact of its AI-powered RFP response and proactive sales proposal creation software, Upland Qvidian. The solution supports a full range of content that drives revenue and builds trust, from proactive proposals and presentations to complex RFPs and statements of work.

Business Outlook
For the quarter ending March 31, 2026, Upland expects reported total revenue to be between $47.0 and $50.0 million, including subscription and support revenue between $44.8 and $47.3 million, for a decline in total revenue of 24% at the midpoint from the quarter ended March 31, 2025. This year-over-year revenue decline is primarily due to divestitures completed in Q1 and Q2 of 2025. First quarter 2026 Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $11.9 and $13.4 million, which at the midpoint is a decline of 3% from the quarter ended March 31, 2025. First quarter 2026 Adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be 26% at the midpoint, an increase of 500 basis points from the 21% Adjusted EBITDA margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.
For the full year ending December 31, 2026, Upland expects reported total revenue to be between $194.2 and $206.2 million, including subscription and support revenue between $183.6 and $193.7 million, for a decline in total revenue of 8% at the midpoint from the year ended December 31, 2025. This year-over-year revenue decline is primarily due to divestitures completed in Q1 and Q2 of 2025. Full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $52.6 and $58.6 million, which at the midpoint is a decline of 4% from the year ended December 31, 2025. Full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be 28% at the midpoint, an increase of 100 basis points from the 27% Adjusted EBITDA margin for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, Core Organic Growth Rate, and Free Cash Flow.
We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses and expenditures that may not be indicative of our recurring core business operating results, such as our revenues excluding the impact for foreign currency fluctuations or our operating performance excluding not only non-cash charges, but also discrete cash charges that are infrequent in nature. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to our historical performance and liquidity as well as comparisons to our competitors' operating results. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and they are used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of our business. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, see the tables provided below in this release.
We are unable to reconcile any forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their directly comparable GAAP financial measures because the information which is needed to complete a reconciliation is unavailable at this time without unreasonable effort. Additionally, we are unable to quantify the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations on components of our income statement beyond revenues because the information which is needed to do so is unavailable at this time without unreasonable effort.



Upland defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, net, other expense (income), net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and divestiture related expenses, non-recurring litigation costs, purchase accounting adjustments for deferred revenue, loss on divestitures and impairment charges.
Upland defines non-GAAP net income (loss) as net income (loss), calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus amortization of purchased intangible assets, amortization of debt discount, loss on debt extinguishment, stock-based compensation expenses, acquisition and divestiture related expenses, non-recurring litigation expenses, purchase accounting adjustments for deferred revenue, non-recurring effects of provision for income tax, loss on divestitures, impairment charges and the related tax effect of the adjustments above.
Upland defines Free Cash Flow as GAAP operating cash flow less purchases of property and equipment.
Upland defines major accounts as accounts with greater than or equal to $25,000 in annual recurring revenue.
Upland defines major expansions as existing customers who expanded the amount of annual recurring revenue under their contract by at least $25,000.
Upland defines cash gross margin as product revenue less subscription and support cost of sales, excluding depreciation and amortization.
Upland defines Net Dollar Retention Rate as the aggregate annualized recurring revenue at the end of a twelve-month period from those customers that were also customers at the beginning of the twelve-month period, divided by the aggregate annualized recurring revenue value from all customers at the beginning of the twelve-month period. This measure excludes the revenue value of Overage Charges, divestitures, and our Sunset Assets upon designation.
In connection with periodic reviews of our business, we have decided to discontinue the availability of certain non-strategic product offerings and a limited number of non-strategic customer contracts (collectively referred to as “Sunset Assets”).
Overage Charges are subscription and support revenues earned in addition to contractual minimum customer commitments as a result of the usage volume of services including text and e-mail messaging and third-party pass-through costs that exceed the levels stipulated in contracts with the Company.
Upland defines Core as our ongoing business operation, excluding Sunset Assets and divestitures.
Upland defines Core Organic Growth Rate as the percentage change between two reported periods in Core Organic Revenue (subscription and support revenue, excluding subscription and support revenue from Sunset Assets, divestitures, and Overage Charges). We calculate our year-over-year Core Organic Growth Rate as though all acquisitions or divestitures closed as of the end of the latest period were closed as of the first day of the prior year period presented. Core Organic Growth Rate does not represent actual organic revenue generated by our business as it stood at the beginning of the respective period.
Upland defines Net Debt as the total amount of debt outstanding less unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at a stated point in time.
Upland defines Net Leverage as Net Debt divided by trailing 4 quarters Adjusted EBITDA.
