Will Weakening Net Dollar Retention Slow MNDY's Enterprise Gains?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
MNDY's Net Dollar Retention fell to 111% in the second quarter, with no rebound seen for the third quarter.
High-value cohorts of $50K and $100K show stabilization, limiting enterprise upsell growth.
Slower adoption across monday workOS workflows weighs on expansion within existing accounts.
monday.com (MNDY - Free Report) is facing mounting pressure as the work management platform grapples with deteriorating customer retention metrics that threaten its enterprise expansion strategy. Net Dollar Retention (NDR) slipped to 111% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 from 112% in the first quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate pegs NDR at 110% for the third quarter, down 0.8% year over year, signaling continued weakness.
This trend poses risks to the company’s growth model. Nearly all of monday.com’s revenues come from subscriptions, making NDR a critical measure of future performance. The metric captures how much recurring revenue expands or contracts within the existing customer base, including upsells, cross-sells and churn. A sustained decline means weaker expansion dynamics across accounts, directly influencing the company’s ability to grow its top line.
The core platform, monday workOS, is designed to support a broad set of workflows spanning project management, sales, marketing and product development. The enterprise strategy relies on customers adopting more modules over time, not just renewing existing seats. Yet high-value cohorts above $50,000 and $100,000 in annual recurring revenues have stabilized rather than expanded, pointing to slower upselling and cross-workflow adoption, with enterprise sales cycles long and complex, softer retention limits visibility into sustainable growth.
Revenue expectations mirror this backdrop. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter revenues is pegged at $312.06 million, implying growth of 24.33% year over year. This marks a slowdown from the second quarter’s 27% pace, signaling that weaker retention is beginning to weigh on overall momentum.
While customer acquisition challenges, including pressures from recent Google algorithm changes, add to the headwinds, retention remains the central concern for MNDY. Enterprise gains depend on deeper adoption within existing accounts, yet softer Net Dollar Retention signals that expansion momentum is slowing. With revenue growth already moderating, the persistence of weaker retention leaves uncertainty over MNDY’s ability to sustain its enterprise growth trajectory.
Atlassian (TEAM - Free Report) and Asana (ASAN - Free Report) provide useful contrasts to monday.com in the Net Dollar Retention landscape. Atlassian has seen moderation in NDR but cushions risk through its wide portfolio spanning Jira, Confluence and Trello. Asana, meanwhile, has focused on large enterprise accounts, with retention supported by deep workflow integrations and expansion across multinational deployments. Compared with Atlassian and Asana, monday.com relies more narrowly on expansion within monday workOS accounts. This heavier dependence makes MNDY more vulnerable if retention softens further, underscoring the competitive pressures shaping enterprise growth paths.
