The non-GAAP loss per share of $0.03 also beat the $0.05 consensus estimate by 42.86%, though GAAP results were weighed down by a $31.36 million non-cash charge tied to contingent acquisition liabilities. The primary engine behind the revenue acceleration was broad-based growth across automotive, enterprise, and restaurant verticals, with notable wins including Red Lobster, Applebee's, and a major China OEM automotive deal. The launch of Amelia 7, now onboarding 15 large enterprise customers, added a strategic dimension to the quarter's strength. Management raised its full-year 2025 revenue outlook to $160 million–$178 million, reflecting growing confidence in the pipeline. Analysts tracking SoundHound's continued trajectory will be watching whether margin expansion materializes alongside the accelerating top line.
