Zoom Communications Q4 Earnings: EPS Beat, Revenue In Line As Company Continues Transformation Into 'AI-First Company'

Zoom Communications (NASDAQ:ZM) reported its fourth quarter fiscal 2025 financial results and outlook after the bell on Monday, with shares slipping slightly following the report. For the quarter ended Jan. 31, 2025, Zoom reported adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.22, beating analysts' expectations of $1.15. Revenue increased to $1.15 billion, in line with expectations of $1.13 billion. The company's transformation into an AI-first company appears to be paying off, as evidenced by its strong third-quarter results and customer metrics.

Zoom's strategic shift towards an AI-first approach has enabled the company to offer more comprehensive solutions that integrate AI and other advanced technologies, enhancing productivity and user experience. This has driven customer retention and growth, as seen in the low online average monthly churn rate of 2.7%. The company's expansion into new product offerings, such as team chat, webinars, phone services, and a cloud-based contact center, has diversified its revenue streams, helping maintain growth even as the initial surge in demand for video conferencing services has stabilized.

Zoom's financial performance demonstrates its ability to retain and grow its customer base, even as the initial surge in demand for video conferencing services has stabilized. The company reported 3,995 customers contributing more than $100,000 in trailing 12 months revenue, a 7.1% increase from the same quarter last fiscal year. This growth in enterprise customers, who typically have higher spending power, contributed to the increase in revenue and ultimately the EPS beat.
