ASUR--
Asure Software reported its second-quarter (Q2) 2025 earnings, which fell short of analyst expectations. The company posted an earnings per share (EPS) of -$0.22, significantly missing the forecast of $0.14. This resulted in a surprise of -257.14%. Despite the earnings miss, Asure's stock price increased by 8.04% in aftermarket trading, closing at $10.48. This increase can be attributed to investor optimism regarding the company's strategic initiatives and future guidance.
Key highlights from the earnings report include:
- Revenue: Asure's revenue for Q2 2025 was $30.1 million, up 7% year-over-year, slightly below the expected $31.03 million.
- Recurring Revenues: Recurring revenues grew by 6%, indicating stable customer retention and service demand.
- Net Loss: The company reported a net loss of $6.1 million, with adjusted EBITDA at $5.2 million, a 17% margin.
- Cash and Equivalents: Asure's cash and equivalents stood at $66 million, with debt at $67.4 million.
The company's strategic initiatives, such as the acquisition of Latham Time Corporation, are expected to bolster its market position. Asure's stock performance contrasts with its 52-week range, which has seen highs of $12.74 and lows of $7.51, indicating a volatile yet potentially lucrative investment.
Looking ahead, Asure has set a full-year 2025 revenue guidance of between $138 million and $142 million, with adjusted EBITDA margins projected at 22-24%. The company anticipates achieving GAAP profitability by Q4 2025, driven by improved product integration and increased cross-selling opportunities following the Latham acquisition.
