Did RELY Beat Earnings? Q4 2025 Results
Remitly Global closed Q4 2025 with a clear beat on both top and bottom lines, as the digital remittance company posted earnings per share of $0.19 against a consensus estimate of $0.16, a 20.56% beat, while revenue of $442.18 million topped estimates of $427.27 million by 3.49% and grew 25.7% year over year. The profitability story was arguably more striking: Remitly recorded GAAP net income of $41.22 million in the quarter, compared to a net loss of $5.72 million a year ago, as operating leverage spread across all expense categories and Adjusted EBITDA margins expanded to 20.0% from 12.7% in the prior-year period. Operationally, active customers rose 19% to 9.3 million while send volume surged 35% to $20.80 billion, with high-amount senders now comprising roughly half of total volume. The quarter also brought a leadership transition, with co-founder Matt Oppenheimer stepping aside as CEO in favor of Sebastian Gunningham, a move analysts characterized as part of Remitly's push toward a broader cross-border financial services platform. Looking ahead, management guided fiscal 2026 revenue of $1.94 billion to $1.96 billion, representing 19-20% growth, with Adjusted EBITDA of $340 million to $360 million.
