When SVMK Inc. (NASDAQ: SVMK), or SurveyMonkey, released its most recent quarterly results after the markets closed on Tuesday, the company said that it had a net loss of $0.01 per share on revenues of $65.2 million. Consensus estimates had called for a net loss of $0.05 per share on $62.9 million in revenue.
The company saw revenue increase of 18% year over year. Also, its core revenue, which excludes $0.4 million in revenue related to the non-self-serve portion of SurveyMonkey Audience in the third quarter of 2017 (the final quarter with reported revenue), increased 19% year over year. Strength across the business drove our results.
The net loss that SurveyMonkey saw this quarter ($102.4 million) was largely due to the IPO-related stock-compensation charge. Adjusted EBITDA was $17.0 million.
Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, the company expects to see revenue in the range of $64.8 million to $66.8 million, with an operating margin of 2% to 3%. Thomson Reuters is calling for $64.99 million in revenue for the coming quarter.
