In other recent news, Bandwidth Inc. reported fourth-quarter earnings with non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.37, slightly missing the expected $0.39. However, the company surpassed revenue expectations, reporting $210 million compared to the forecasted $204 million, marking a 27% year-over-year growth. Adjusted EBITDA was also strong at $23 million, exceeding the consensus of $20 million, and free cash flow was reported at $30 million, higher than the anticipated $25 million. Despite these positive financial indicators, Bandwidth’s first-quarter revenue guidance of $168-170 million fell short of the analyst expectation of $182.7 million. For the full year 2025, the company projected revenue between $740-760 million, which is below the consensus estimate of $761.5 million. Analysts at Citizens JMP maintained a Market Outperform rating for Bandwidth with a price target of $36, emphasizing the company’s strong adjusted EBITDA and cash flow. The company also reported a record non-GAAP gross margin of 58% for the fourth quarter, up from 55% the previous year. Despite the robust fourth-quarter results, the disappointing guidance for the upcoming quarter led to a decline in Bandwidth’s stock.
