📊 MIXED Vertex Q1 2026 revenue $196.6M, adj. EBITDA $44.1M; cloud revenue 20.7% growth, low double-digit medium-term outlook.
Revenue & Profitability
Total revenue of $196.6 million (up 11.1% YoY). Adjusted EBITDA was $44.1 million (up 18.4% YoY). Free cash flow was positive $7.7 million. For full year 2026, revenue guidance is $823.5-$831.5 million (unchanged), and adjusted EBITDA guidance was raised to $202-$208 million.
Outlook
Management noted a mixed macro environment with sustained IT spending scrutiny, but customer retention, usage, and buying behavior remained stable. The medium-term revenue growth rate is expected to be low double digits (10-13%), driven by e-invoicing mandates and AI product adoption. Headwinds include macro uncertainty and the time needed for e-invoicing revenue to ramp after mandate enactments.
Growth Drivers
Key growth drivers: e-invoicing and compliance business (growing materially above corporate average), cloud revenue (guided 25% full-year growth, accelerating as e-invoicing mandates in France and Germany come online), and AI product enhancements such as Smart Categorization. The acquisition of Brinta adds Latin American coverage and AI-native architecture for real-time compliance.
Balance Sheet & CapEx
Not discussed in this earnings call.
Margins
Non-GAAP gross margins increased 50 bps YoY in Q1. The value creation plan is expected to generate $60-$70 million in annualized cash savings (net of reinvestments), with around $15 million phased into 2026 EBITDA guidance. Management expects to achieve the 2025 Investor Day profitability and cash flow targets by 2027, ahead of the original 2028 timeline.
Key Risks
Risks flagged include the mixed macro environment and IT spending scrutiny. The shift to cloud and e-invoicing revenue takes time to materialize as mandates become effective. The cost actions may impact employee morale, and the Brinta integration carries execution risk. No specific competitor risks were named.

A comprehensive, bias-free framework for analyzing and ranking stocks by Financial Strength, Growth Potential, Competitive Edge, Management Quality, and Value.

Financial Model
Projections are built from each company's audited annual financials (Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) over the last 5 fiscal years. Forward assumptions — revenue growth %, EBITDA margin, D&A (USD millions), interest expense, tax rate, and capex — are AI-generated using historical context and refreshed twice a year: after the December results season and after the September/Q4 results season.

DCF Valuation
Fair Value = Σ(FCFt / (1+WACC)t) + Terminal Value. Terminal Value uses the Gordon Growth Model: FCF5 × (1+g) / (WACC−g). Default WACC: 10% (US risk-free ~4.5%, equity risk premium ~5.5%). Default terminal growth: 3% (long-run US nominal GDP proxy).

CAGR Tracker
Expected 5-year CAGR = (DCF Fair Value / Current Price)1/5 − 1. Assumes fair value is reached in exactly 5 years — a mechanical estimate only.

Non-US ADR companies may have currency conversion inaccuracies. Models are point-in-time and do not update intra-quarter or account for M&A, macro shocks, or extraordinary items.
