Analysis · EGAN · Technology
Fiscal 2026 was a mixed bag for eGain. Total revenue inched up just 3% to $91.1M, yet AI customer revenue surged 20% and now accounts for 72% of SaaS ARR. Recognition as a Leader in Gartner's first Customer Service Knowledge Management Magic Quadrant validates the company's AI Knowledge strategy. The forward outlook, however, is less encouraging: fiscal 2027 guidance implies a GAAP net loss of $2.0M-$3.0M and adjusted EBITDA of only $650K-$1.4M—a sharp margin compression from the 15% adjusted EBITDA margin just reported. With the stock trading near its 52-week low, the weak profitability forecast is the key risk for investors.
