Did SEMR Beat Earnings? Q4 2025 Results

No. SEMrush reported Q4 2025 earnings of $-0.07 a share on Mar 2, 2026, missing the $0.10 consensus estimate by 170.0%. Revenue was $117.7M against a $118.6M estimate.

Semrush delivered a mixed fourth quarter to close out fiscal 2025, missing on both the top and bottom lines as elevated costs overshadowed otherwise strong operational momentum. The company posted Q4 revenue of $117.66 million, up 14.6% year-over-year but slightly below the $118.57 million consensus estimate, while reporting a GAAP loss of $0.07 per diluted share, a stark reversal from expectations of $0.10 in profit and a 170.00% miss against consensus. The earnings shortfall was largely explained by $17.10 million in stock-based compensation and $9.72 million in acquisition-related costs tied to the pending Adobe deal, which drove a GAAP operating loss of $13.90 million for the quarter. Beneath the headline miss, however, growth in AI products and the Enterprise platform told a more constructive story, with combined ARR reaching $63.00 million at year-end, up sharply from $13.00 million a year prior. With HSR clearance and stockholder approval already secured, Semrush is not providing forward guidance, as its acquisition by Adobe remains on track to close in the first half of 2026.

Key Takeaways
  • Continued adoption of AI products and the Enterprise platform driving 48% YoY growth in Q4 net new ARR
  • Customers paying more than $10,000 annually grew 31% year-over-year
  • Customers paying over $50,000 annually grew by over 74% year-over-year
  • Dollar-based net revenue retention of 104%

What Is SEMrush's Outlook?

Semrush will not provide guidance for Q1 2026 or full-year 2026 due to the anticipated closing of its acquisition by Adobe in the first half of 2026.
