AudioCodes (NASDAQ:AUDC) Releases Quarterly Earnings Results, Hits Estimates

AudioCodes (NASDAQ:AUDC) announced its quarterly earnings results on Tuesday. The communications equipment provider reported $0.16 EPS for the quarter, meeting analysts’ consensus estimates of $0.16, FiscalAI reports. AudioCodes had a net margin of 3.65% and a return on equity of 6.36%. The company had revenue of $62.61 million for the quarter, compared to analysts’ expectations of $62.00 million. AudioCodes updated its FY 2026 guidance to 0.600-0.750 EPS.

Here are the key takeaways from AudioCodes’ conference call:

• AudioCodes is pivoting to an AI-driven model — its Voice AI business reached $17 million in 2025 (7% of revenue), grew ~35% YoY (conversational AI +50% in Q4/2H), and management targets 40–50% annual growth to $50M by 2028 while burning ~$9–10M/year and aiming to breakeven in ~2 years.
• Top-line growth was modest (Q4 revenue $62.6M, +1.7% YoY; FY $245.6M, +1.4%) while profitability weakened materially — Q4 GAAP net income fell to $1.9M (from $6.8M) and Q4 non?GAAP net income dropped to $4.5M (from $11.6M).
• 2026 guidance calls for revenues of $247–255M and non?GAAP diluted EPS of $0.60–0.75, implying modest company-level growth driven by continued Voice AI expansion offsetting a stable connectivity business.
• Liquidity and shareholder returns: the company ended 2025 with $75.7M in cash/equivalents, has court approval to repurchase up to $25M of shares, repurchased ~$6.1M this quarter, and declared a $0.20 per?share dividend (~$5.4M).
• Concentration and working?capital risks remain: the top 15 customers accounted for 58% of Q4 revenue (41% from 10 distributors), days sales outstanding were high at 117 days, and tariff headwinds totaled ~$2.7M in 2025 (expected ~$2.3M in 2026).
