• Full Year 2025 Financial Performance

  Grid Dynamics reported record full-year 2025 revenues of $411.8 million, a 17.5% increase year-over-year, and returned to GAAP net income of $9.7 million, or $0.11 per share.

• Fourth Quarter 2025 Mixed Results

  Fourth-quarter 2025 revenues reached $106.2 million, slightly above guidance. However, GAAP net income declined to $0.3 million ($0.00 per share) from $4.5 million ($0.05 per share) in the prior year period, and non-GAAP net income also decreased.

• 2026 Revenue Guidance Indicates Deceleration

  The company projects full-year 2026 revenues to be in the range of $435.0 to $465.0 million, with the midpoint representing a 9.3% year-over-year growth rate, a significant slowdown from 2025's growth. Q1 2026 revenue is expected to be $103.0 to $104.0 million, a sequential decline from Q4 2025.

• AI Revenue Growth and Share Repurchase

  AI-related revenues exceeded $90 million in 2025, growing 30% year-over-year. The company also repurchased $2.0 million of common stock in Q4 2025, with $48.0 million remaining under its authorization.

auto_awesomeAnalysis

While Grid Dynamics achieved record full-year revenues and returned to GAAP net income in 2025, the fourth quarter saw a decline in GAAP and non-GAAP net income. More significantly, the company's 2026 revenue guidance, projecting 9.3% year-over-year growth at the midpoint, indicates a substantial deceleration compared to the 17.5% growth achieved in 2025. This slowdown in growth, coupled with a sequential decline in Q1 2026 revenue expectations, could weigh on investor sentiment despite the positive momentum in AI-related revenues and the ongoing share repurchase program. Investors will be watching for signs of stabilization or re-acceleration in growth in subsequent quarters.
