Did LZ Beat Earnings? Q2 2025 Results

LegalZoom posted a standout second quarter for 2025, with revenue climbing 8.5% year-over-year to $192.51 million against a consensus estimate of $182.49 million — a 5.49% beat — while adjusted EPS of $0.15 edged past the $0.1487 consensus by 0.87%, marking the third consecutive quarter of accelerating top-line growth. The primary engine behind the outperformance was subscription revenue, which rose 10% year-over-year to $119.90 million as subscription units surged 22% to 1,955 thousand — a milestone the company says arrived two quarters ahead of its internal plan. That subscriber momentum prompted management to raise its full-year 2025 revenue growth outlook from approximately 5% to approximately 8%, while Adjusted EBITDA expanded 35% to $38.97 million with margins widening to 20% from 16% a year ago. <a href="https://247wallst.com/investing/2025/08/08/here-are-some-of-todays-biggest-analyst-calls-2/">Analyst attention has been building</a> around the name, and with Q3 guidance calling for revenue of $182 to $184 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 25%, LegalZoom appears to be entering the back half of the year with strengthening operational leverage.
