monday.com beats Q3 estimates but warns of slower growth during AI transition

On November 9, monday.com reported Q3 revenue of $377.5M and adjusted EPS of $2.14, both above estimates. It guided for Q4 revenue of $380M-$382M and raised its full-year revenue forecast to $1.473B-$1.475B. AI ARR reached $36M, but management cited near-term friction from its AI-first shift, restructuring and enterprise focus; shares fell 7.3%.

The Q4 outlook was below analyst expectations, creating a lower near-term revenue baseline despite the Q3 beat. Management said the AI transformation and related operational changes would cause near-term headwinds, while analysts including Oppenheimer, Canaccord, Needham, Jefferies and BofA lowered ratings or price targets.

  • Net revenue retention is reported as 108%, but 112% and 117%; the discrepancy is unresolved.
