Bridgeline Digital, Inc.'s Third Quarter Earnings Conference Call Transcript from 2025
Bridgeline Digital Reports Q3 2025 Earnings: Revenue Dips Slightly, Subscription ARR Grows
Bridgeline Digital Inc. (BLIN) has announced a slight decline in revenue for Q3 2025, with total revenue falling to $3.8 million from $3.9 million year-over-year. The company reported a net loss of $0.8 million for the quarter. Despite the revenue dip, Bridgeline's strong financial position is evident, with a healthy balance sheet boasting more cash than debt.
The decline in revenue was partly offset by a 4% growth in subscription and licenses revenue, which reached $3.1 million. Services revenue, on the other hand, dropped to $0.7 million. Bridgeline's core product, HawkSearch, contributed over 60% of the revenue and was recognised as the #1 ranked B2B search solution in the 2025 Gartner Critical Capabilities Report.
During the earnings call, CEO Ari Khan highlighted strong contract bookings of $1.7 million for the quarter, adding $600,000 in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR), with year-to-date bookings reaching $6 million and over $2 million in ARR. Revenue from core products showed double-digit growth, fueled by HawkSearch, along with onboarding more than 20 new customers and selling over 30 licenses in the quarter.
Bridgeline's stock saw a 2.66% decline during regular hours but modest aftermarket gains following the earnings release. The overall narrative is of a company facing moderate revenue pressure partly offset by growth in subscription ARR and strong product positioning with HawkSearch.
The conference call was conducted by Ari Kahn, Bridgeline's President and CEO, and included discussions on the financial results for the quarter. Thomas R. Windhausen, the Chief Financial Officer of Bridgeline Digital, Inc., was also present. The call concluded by taking questions.
