Did PINS Beat Earnings? Q2 2026 Results
Yes. Pinterest reported Q2 2026 earnings of $0.43 a share on Aug 4, 2026, beating the $0.36 consensus estimate by 20.4%. Revenue was $1.2B against a $1.1B estimate.
Pinterest delivered a strong second-quarter beat in Q2 2026, posting non-GAAP EPS of $0.43 against a consensus estimate of $0.36, a 20.38% beat, while revenue climbed 18.2% year over year to $1.18 billion, edging past the $1.15 billion analysts had expected. The central driver was user momentum, with Pinterest reaching 640 million global monthly active users across its 11th consecutive quarter of double-digit growth, a scale that continued to attract advertiser dollars and lift global average revenue per user 7% to $1.86. Rest of World was the fastest-growing geography at 38% revenue growth, while U.S. and Canada ARPU rose 14% to $8.30, underscoring the platform's broadening monetization reach. Adjusted EBITDA expanded 24% to $311.31 million, delivering a 26% margin, even as GAAP results reflected heavier share-based compensation and restructuring charges. Free cash flow surged 37% to $269.93 million, supported by $2 billion-plus in year-to-date buybacks. Options markets had flagged a potential 12% stock move around the print. Looking ahead, Pinterest guided Q3 2026 revenue to $1.19 billion to $1.21 billion, representing 13% to 15% growth, with adjusted EBITDA of $335 million to $355 million.
