â–¼(-1.99% Downside)
Action:Upgraded
Date:08/22/26
The score is driven primarily by strong margins and free cash flow, supported by a constructive technical setup (price above major moving averages with positive MACD). Offsetting these positives are the sharp TTM revenue decline and increased balance-sheet leverage, while valuation is a moderate drag due to the elevated P/E despite a ~1.9% dividend yield.
Positive Factors
High Profitability
Temenos combines a high gross margin with a strong net margin, indicating meaningful software economics and operating leverage. This profitability provides capacity to fund product development, support customer adoption, and absorb moderate revenue pressure while preserving earnings resilience.
Negative Factors
Sharp Revenue Decline
A sharp contraction in trailing revenue raises questions about demand durability and the pace at which new business, renewals, or deployments are converting into reported sales. If sustained, weaker top-line performance could reduce operating leverage and limit the benefit of strong margins.

Temenos Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Feb 24, 2026
(Q1-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Oct 27, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call emphasized strong recurring revenue growth (ARR +13%), above‑market product revenue (+14%), robust profitability expansion (EBIT & EPS +20%), healthy free cash flow (+22%) and confirmed guidance/2028 targets. Key operational achievements include notable regional wins (Middle East & Africa), U.S. pipeline progress, AI product momentum and senior hires including a new CFO. Principal negatives were the one‑off BNPL termination headwind, a U.S. performance that is not yet translating into signed large deals, increased investment and R&D spend, and unchanged prudent guidance due to macro/geopolitical uncertainties. Overall, the positive financial and operational metrics and reconfirmed targets materially outweigh the manageable headwinds and uncertainties discussed.Positive Updates
Strong ARR and Recurring Revenue Growth
ARR reached $860 million with ARR growth of 13% year‑on‑year, providing strong visibility on future recurring revenue and cash flow.
Negative Updates
BNPL Client Termination Headwind
A BNPL client moved off the platform at the end of last year, creating a one‑off headwind reflected in results and guidance; management says no further headwind beyond 2026.

Company Guidance
Management reconfirmed its 2026 non‑IFRS, constant‑currency guidance (EPS and free cash flow reported) and reiterated 2028 targets, noting Q1 metrics that underpin that view: ARR $860m (ARR +13%), product revenue +14%, subscription & SaaS +12% in Q1 (full‑year subscription/SaaS guidance ~9%), maintenance +15% in Q1 with full‑year maintenance guidance 7–8% (longer‑term maintenance ~5–6%), total revenue +13% in Q1, non‑IFRS EBIT and EPS +20% in Q1, EBIT margin +190bps to 32.7%, net profit +19%, EPS +20%, free cash flow $60m in Q1 (+22% YoY) and a raised 2028 FCF target; the plan funds $28–35m of incremental investments (partly offset by ~ $10m of cost efficiencies), pro forma R&D +14% YoY, generated $204m operating cash, ended the quarter with net debt $609m and leverage 1.3x (target 1.0–1.5x), completed a CHF100m buyback in April (after a CHF250m buyback in Aug‑2025), and said the guidance already reflects the one‑off BNPL headwind with no further impact beyond 2026.Temenos Financial Statement Overview
