• Raised 2026 outlook: TaskUs increased its full-year revenue guidance to $1.22 billion–$1.24 billion and expects approximately 19% adjusted EBITDA margins. Adjusted free cash flow guidance was also raised to $110 million–$120 million.
• Second-quarter revenue rose 5% year over year to $308.9 million, exceeding the high end of guidance, while adjusted EBITDA reached $57.7 million, or an 18.7% margin. Excluding the largest client, revenue grew approximately 15%, led by roughly 30% growth from the second- through 20th-largest client cohort.
• AI Services and Digital Customer Experience remained growth engines: AI Services revenue increased 25.8% to $66.1 million, with growth expected to reaccelerate above 30% in the fourth quarter, while DCX revenue rose 6.4% to $175.7 million.
• Revenue from the largest client declined approximately 22% year over year, and management expects further automation- and cost-optimization-related pressure through the remainder of 2026. Trust & Safety revenue also fell 12.3%, primarily due to declining social-media workloads, although stabilization is anticipated in 2027.
• Management expects third-quarter revenue of $300 million–$302 million and adjusted EBITDA margins of approximately 18.7%; continued wage inflation, U.S. delivery mix, pricing pressure, and investments in AI and growth initiatives are expected to offset efficiency gains.
