TaskUs (NASDAQ:TASK) Posts Earnings Results

TaskUs (NASDAQ:TASK) posted its quarterly earnings data on Wednesday. The company reported $0.34 earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, topping the consensus estimate of $0.31 by $0.03, FiscalAI reports. The business had revenue of $314.75 million for the quarter, compared to analysts’ expectations of $303.64 million. TaskUs had a return on equity of 27.02% and a net margin of 8.75%.

Here are the key takeaways from TaskUs’ conference call:

• TaskUs posted record Q3 revenue of $314.7 million, up 5.4% year over year and $12.7 million above the top of its guidance range; adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.8% also slightly exceeded expectations. The company raised its 2026 revenue outlook to $1.249 billion–$1.251 billion and its adjusted free cash flow outlook to $115 million–$125 million.
• Growth outside the largest client accelerated: revenue excluding that client rose nearly 20%, while the top 2–20 client group grew 37%. Digital Customer Experience grew 7.1%, and management expects the rest of the business to maintain nearly 20% growth in Q4.
• AI Services revenue climbed 27.7% to $75 million, its eighth consecutive quarter of growth above 25%, and became TaskUs’ second-largest service line. Management said autonomous vehicle and robotics revenue is expected to exceed $100 million in 2026—more than triple 2025—and sees AI Services as its fastest-growing service line into 2027.
• Automation and cost reductions at the largest client continue to weigh on results: its share of revenue fell to 17% from 27% a year earlier, and Trust & Safety revenue declined 15.8%. TaskUs expects a larger year-over-year Trust & Safety decline in Q4 and difficult comparisons at the large client into early 2027.
• Adjusted EPS declined to $0.34 from $0.42 a year earlier, primarily due to higher interest expense and cost of services. Management also expects increased AI and growth investments, alongside a lower-margin onshore mix, to pressure margins in the near term.
