eGain (NASDAQ:EGAN) Issues Earnings Results

eGain (NASDAQ:EGAN) posted its quarterly earnings data on Tuesday. The technology company reported $0.11 earnings per share for the quarter, topping the consensus estimate of $0.08 by $0.03, FiscalAI reports. The firm had revenue of $22.98 million for the quarter, compared to analysts’ expectations of $22.42 million. eGain had a return on equity of 11.78% and a net margin of 39.77%. eGain updated its Q3 2026 guidance to 0.060-0.080 EPS and its FY 2026 guidance to 0.310-0.360 EPS.

Here are the key takeaways from eGain’s conference call:

• eGain beat guidance and consensus with Q2 revenue of $23.0M (up 3% YoY, 5% ex-sunsetting messaging), delivered strong margins (total gross margin 74%, SaaS gross margin 80%), non-GAAP net income of $3.0M, and generated $10.1M in operating cash flow with $83.1M cash and no debt.
• AI Knowledge Hub momentum accelerated: AI knowledge ARR rose 27% YoY and now represents 64% of SaaS ARR, top-of-funnel AI leads grew >50% YoY, and the company closed multiple large enterprise wins (including a global software provider, Achmea, and continued rollout at JPMorgan).
• Customer monetization and retention improved materially for AI customers (LTM dollar-based net retention 116% and net expansion 119%), with total SaaS ARR up 7% YoY (11% ex-sunsetting products) and total RPO up 15% YoY.
• Partner and product-led initiatives are scaling: partner-sourced new logos doubled year-over-year (25% of new logos in H1), partner-sourced leads rose 80% H1 YoY, and the developer-focused eGain Composer plus industry recognition (Gartner Magic Quadrant leader, KMWorld award) are supporting go-to-market expansion.
• The company is sunsetting non-core messaging products, which reduced revenue by roughly $600K/quarter (50% impact taken in Q2 with the remainder phased out in Q1 FY2027), and professional services revenue/margin was pressured by timing and a government shutdown—though the PS team was right-sized and management expects margins to normalize.
