SAN MATEO, Calif., June 4, 2026 - Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE) today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2026.

“Third-quarter results reinforce our confidence in the strength and continuing momentum of our business, and set us up well for what should be a record fourth quarter,” said Mike Rosenbaum, chief executive officer, Guidewire. “It’s clear that our strategy and market position are resonating with insurers as they focus on modernizing core systems, migrating critical business functions to our cloud platform solutions, and adopting AI across our applications.”

“We are raising our fiscal year outlook for revenue, operating income, and cash flow based on better than expected Q3 results and greater visibility as opportunities progress through our pipeline,” said Jeff Cooper, chief financial officer, Guidewire. “ARR grew 19% in Q3 and total revenue grew 27%. These strong growth dynamics reflect the pace of wins across products, regions, and customers of all sizes and reinforce the durability of our business model.”

•Total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 was $372.5 million, an increase of 27% from the same quarter in fiscal year 2025. Subscription and support revenue was $244.7 million, an increase of 35%; license revenue was $56.0 million, a decrease of 2%; and services revenue was $71.8 million, an increase of 32%, each compared to the same quarter in fiscal year 2025.

•As of April 30, 2026, annual recurring revenue, or ARR, was $1,147 million, compared to $1,041 million as of July 31, 2025. ARR results for interim quarterly periods in fiscal year 2026 are based on actual currency rates at the end of fiscal year 2025, held constant throughout the year.

•GAAP income from operations was $30.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared with $4.5 million for the same quarter in fiscal year 2025.

•Non-GAAP income from operations was $77.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared with $46.1 million for the same quarter in fiscal year 2025.

•GAAP net income was $16.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared with $46.0 million for the same quarter in fiscal year 2025. GAAP net income was negatively impacted by a foreign currency loss of $20.1 million during the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared to a foreign currency gain of $34.2 million for the same quarter in fiscal year 2025 due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

•GAAP diluted net income per share was $0.19 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 85.1 million, compared with $0.54 for the same quarter in fiscal year 2025, based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 85.9 million.

•Non-GAAP net income was $69.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared with $47.4 million for the same quarter in fiscal year 2025.

•Non-GAAP diluted net income per share was $0.82 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 85.1 million, compared with non-GAAP diluted net income per share of $0.55 for the same quarter in fiscal year 2025, based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 85.9 million.

•Guidewire had $1,146.8 million in cash, cash equivalents, and investments at April 30, 2026, compared to $1,483.2 million at July 31, 2025.

This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP tax provision (benefit), non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, and free cash flow. Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP income (loss) from operations exclude stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, and acquisition consideration holdback. Non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, and non-GAAP tax provision (benefit) also exclude the amortization of debt issuance costs from our convertible senior notes, changes in fair value of strategic investments, (gains) losses on sale of strategic investments, retirement of debt, unrealized foreign exchange rate (gains) losses, and related tax effects of the non-GAAP adjustments. Free cash flow consists of net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities, less cash used for purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs. These non-GAAP measures enable us to analyze our financial performance without the effects of certain non-cash items such as amortization and stock-based compensation.

Annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) is used to quantify the annualized recurring value outlined in active customer contracts at the end of a reporting period. ARR includes the annualized recurring value of term licenses, subscription agreements, support contracts, and hosting agreements based on customer contractual terms and invoicing activities for the current reporting period, which may not be the same as the timing and amount of revenue recognized. ARR reflects all fee changes due to contract renewals, non-renewals, expansion, cancellations, attrition, or renegotiations at a higher or lower fee arrangement that are effective as of the ARR reporting date. All components of the licensing and other arrangements that are not expected to recur (primarily perpetual licenses and professional services) are excluded from our ARR calculations. In some arrangements with multiple performance obligations, a portion of recurring license and support or subscription contract value is allocated to services revenue for revenue recognition purposes, but does not get allocated for purposes of calculating ARR. This revenue allocation generally only impacts the initial term of the contract. This means that if we increase arrangements with multiple performance obligations that include services at discounted rates, more of the total contract value would be recognized as services revenue, but our reported ARR amount would not be impacted. During the nine months ended April 30, 2026, the recurring license and support or subscription contract value recognized as services revenue was $5.9 million.

Guidewire believes that these non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Guidewire’s financial condition and results of operations. Guidewire’s management uses these non-GAAP measures and other metrics to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analysis, for purposes of determining executive and senior management incentive compensation, and for budgeting and planning purposes. Guidewire believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing Guidewire’s financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics to investors.

Guidewire’s management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Guidewire’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Guidewire urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results, including the financial tables at the end of this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Guidewire’s business.
