Zoom Communications reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 results on September 1, 2026, with revenue of $1.28 billion, up 4.9% year-over-year — exceeding the high end of its own guidance by $7 million, but the slowest growth rate among the cluster of major enterprise software companies reporting around the same time.
A Two-Speed Business
- Enterprise revenue was $787.5 million, up 7.8% year-over-year — Zoom's strongest enterprise growth rate in three years — now representing 62% of total revenue
- Online revenue grew just 0.6% year-over-year to $489.7 million, with average monthly churn stable at 2.9%
- The divergence shows Zoom's enterprise segment reaccelerating while its smaller-customer online segment remains largely flat
Why the Stock Fell Despite a Revenue Beat
Despite beating the high end of its own revenue guidance, Zoom shares fell after the company issued a full fiscal year 2027 profit outlook of $6.08-6.12 adjusted EPS and revenue guidance of $5.085-5.095 billion that fell short of Wall Street's profitability expectations — echoing the now-familiar pattern this earnings season where forward guidance, not the reported quarter, drives the stock reaction.
What This Means for Communications Platform Buyers
The specific divergence between Zoom's reaccelerating enterprise segment and its flat online/smaller-customer segment is a more useful data point for enterprise buyers than the blended overall growth rate, since it suggests Zoom's product and go-to-market improvements are showing up more clearly in the enterprise tier specifically — the segment most relevant to organizations evaluating Zoom as an enterprise communications platform rather than the broader consumer-adjacent online tier.
