KEY QUOTE:
“Growth in our enterprise ARR customer cohort accelerated again in the second quarter, driven by improvements in both retention and expansion for that cohort, and we are seeing signs that we expect that momentum carry into the third quarter. The future of discovery is agentic, and that is a tailwind for Yext. AI answers reward brand information that is accurate, consistent, and trusted wherever it appears. Understanding that is the easy part. Acting on it across the internet in near real-time is the hard part, and the platform we have developed over the past fifteen years is what lets our customers and their agents do exactly that. As we build more AI into our own platform, and expand our API and MCP offering, we are making it easier for customers to see and experience the power of our full suite of solutions. Importantly, as we advance our innovation agenda we are simultaneously achieving record Adjusted EBITDA and delivering significant capital returns to shareholders. We believe the opportunity for Yext has never been greater.”
Michael Walrath, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yext
