AvePoint’s ARR Grew 27%. Why Didn’t Its Adjusted Margin Follow?
AvePoint reported Q2 revenue of $124.5M, up 22%, and ARR of $465.1M, up 27%. However, adjusted operating margin fell to 16.3% from 18.4%, and gross margin declined to 73.1% from 74.0%. GAAP operating income rose to $10.2M, but adjusted profit growth lagged due to higher sales and marketing costs.
