Twilio (TWLO) to Report Q1 Earnings: What's in the Offing?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Twilio Inc. (TWLO - Free Report) is scheduled to report its first-quarter 2023 results on May 9.
Twilio anticipates revenues in the range of $995 million to $1.005 billion for the first quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the same is pegged at $999.8 million, indicating an improvement of 14.2% from the year-ago quarter. Our estimate projects Twilio’s revenues to be $998.4 million.
The cloud-based communications platform-as-a-service provider expects non-GAAP earnings between 18 cents and 22 cents per share. The consensus mark for the non-GAAP earnings is pegged at 20 cents per share from the year-ago quarter breakeven. We expect Twilio to report earnings of 18 cents per share in the first quarter of 2023.
Twilio’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in all the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 130.1%.
Twilio’s first-quarter results are likely to reflect gains from accelerated digital transformation projects across several industries while the world economy is rebounding. Organizations are continuing to reconfigure their setup for a hybrid operational environment.
The company’s revenues are likely to have witnessed contributions from its Zipwhip and Segment buyouts. Since the buyout in 2020, Segment has been aiding TWLO in enhancing its capabilities in the cloud-based communications platform space and gaining significant customers. The strong uptake of Segment, the growing adoption of Twilio Flex and an increasing clientele base are likely to have favored first-quarter performance.
Solutions like Journeys, Twilio Conversations, SendGrid Ads and SendGrid’s Email Validation application programming interface are likely to have contributed to first-quarter performance. The company’s efforts to fortify its global footprint are likely to get reflected in the to-be-reported quarter's results. In the last reported quarter, Twilio added around 10,000 new clients, taking the total active customer count to 290,000. In the first quarter, the company’s increasing scope among leading enterprises is likely to have acted as a key tailwind.
However, increased spending, investments in enhancing the product portfolio and expansion across newer markets are likely to have negatively impacted Twilio’s profitability.
