Did PINS Beat Earnings? Q1 2025 Results
Pinterest posted a mixed but largely encouraging first quarter in 2025, beating revenue estimates while falling short on the bottom line. The social discovery platform generated $854.99 million in revenue, topping the $846.10 million consensus by 1.05% and marking 15.5% year-over-year growth, yet non-GAAP EPS of $0.23 missed the $0.26 estimate by 9.80%, reflecting the continued weight of rising share-based compensation, which climbed to $187.43 million for the period. The more compelling story was user momentum, with monthly active users reaching a record 570 million globally, up 10% year over year, while AI-driven improvements to shopping intent and advertiser performance helped expand Adjusted EBITDA margins to 20% from 17% a year ago. CEO Bill Ready credited the platform's evolving AI capabilities for making the business more resilient as the digital advertising landscape shifts. Looking ahead, Pinterest guided Q2 2025 revenue to a range of $960 million to $980 million, implying continued double-digit growth as the company leans further into its commerce-focused strategy.
