Teradata shares fall on weak outlook despite earnings beat

Investing.com -- Teradata Corporation (NYSE:TDC) reported first quarter 2025 earnings that surpassed analyst expectations, but shares tumbled 4.4% in after-hours trading due to weak guidance and a revenue miss.

The data analytics company posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.66, beating the analyst consensus of $0.57. However, revenue for the quarter came in at $418 million, falling short of estimates of $425.42 million and declining 10% YoY.

Teradata’s public cloud annual recurring revenue (ARR) grew 15% YoY to $606 million, while total ARR decreased 3% to $1.442 billion. The company’s GAAP operating margin improved to 15.8% from 10.3% in the year-ago quarter.

Looking ahead, Teradata provided disappointing guidance for the second quarter, projecting adjusted EPS of $0.37 to $0.41, well below the consensus estimate of $0.56. The company also expects Q2 recurring revenue to decline 5% to 7% YoY in constant currency.

"We are helping industry leaders around the world recognize value from trusted AI and our hybrid platform, which remains highly relevant in times of uncertainty," said Steve McMillan, Teradata’s president and CEO. "We will be closely monitoring the dynamic market as we are affirming our pragmatic 2025 cloud and total ARR growth outlook."

For the full year 2025, Teradata expanded its total revenue decline forecast to 4% to 7% YoY in constant currency. The company maintained its outlook for public cloud ARR growth of 14% to 18% and total ARR growth of flat to 2% for the year.
