Alarm.com (ALRM) Stock Looks Like A Cash Flow Bargain, Earnings Say Fair Value

Simply Wall St.
Track your investments for FREE with Simply Wall St, the portfolio command center trusted by over 7 million individual investors worldwide. Alarm.com Holdings has turned in a solid recent rebound, yet the stock is still working through a 31.4% decline over the past five years, while a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) intrinsic value estimate points to the shares trading at a sizeable discount to that underlying calculation. At the same time, broader valuation checks and market multiples point to a picture that looks closer to fairly priced than obviously cheap. Over the last five years, Alarm.com Holdings shares have declined 31.4%, which raises the question of whether current pricing already reflects past setbacks or still underestimates the business. Recent revenue momentum in areas like commercial security and energy management can support expectations for future cash flows, while any slowdown in these segments may quickly challenge the case that the current discount to intrinsic value is justified. Alarm.com Holdings scores 4 out of 6 on the broader valuation checks, which points to a mixed picture rather than a clear bargain or clear overvaluation. The issue now is whether the current share price already reflects the recovery story at Alarm.com Holdings or if the DCF-based intrinsic value estimate suggests there is still meaningful upside left. Alarm.com Holdings delivered 5.7% returns over the last year. See how this stacks up to the rest of the Software industry. The Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model values Alarm.com Holdings using its projected future free cash flows. On this view, the company’s latest twelve month free cash flow of about $184 million is treated as growing further over time, then tapering as the business matures. Those cash flows, discounted back, point to an estimated intrinsic value of about $94 per share. Set against the current market price, that DCF estimate implies Alarm.com Holdings trades at about a 39.0% discount, which screens as undervalued on cash flow terms. Because the Q2 2026 update raised the full year outlook and highlighted strong contributions from Commercial and EnergyHub, the current gap between price and cash flow based value suggests the market may still be cautious despite healthier fundamentals. On balance, the DCF workup indicates Alarm.com Holdings stock currently looks undervalued. Our Discounted Cash Flow (DCF)…Read full document

Head to the Valuation section of our Company Report for more details on how we arrive at this Fair Value for Alarm.com Holdings. The P/E ratio is a useful lens for Alarm.com Holdings because the company currently reports positive earnings that can be compared directly with its share price. Right now the stock trades on a P/E of about 24.0x, which is below the broader Software industry average of 32.5x and also below a peer group average of about 40.7x. The tailored fair P/E for Alarm.com Holdings is estimated at roughly 23.9x, which is almost identical to where the stock trades today. That small gap suggests the current price already reflects the company’s earnings profile, sector, size and risk without a clear discount or premium built in. On this P/E check, Alarm.com Holdings appears to be priced roughly in line with what its earnings profile would suggest. See what the numbers say about this price — find out in our valuation breakdown. Simply Wall St Narratives pick up where the valuation checks for Alarm.com Holdings leave off. They describe which paths for Alarm.com Holdings' growth, margins and earnings would need to occur for the stock to be worth materially more or less than today's price.

You can add your voice to the Simply Wall St community by sharing a Narrative on Alarm.com Holdings that sets out a clear, number driven case for the stock and tracks how it holds up as new results come through. If you have a view on whether Alarm.com Holdings' raised outlook and recent commercial platform expansion really support today's pricing, this is your chance to put it on the record. Do you think there's more to the story for Alarm.com Holdings? Head over to our Community to see what others are saying! For Alarm.com Holdings, the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) work suggests the stock trades at a sizeable discount to intrinsic value, while the earnings based multiples sit closer to about right. That mix points to a situation where cash flow assumptions and timing matter more than simple peer comparisons. The crux for investors is whether the current cash generation and segment momentum can be sustained enough for the DCF case to play out. If that holds, the present discount could look like an opportunity rather than a value trap, but any stumble in execution or growth expectations would support the more cautious multiple view.

Alarm.com Holdings, Inc. Q2 2026 Earnings Call Summary

Moby
Our analysts just identified a stock with the potential to be the next Nvidia. Tell us how you invest and we'll show you why it's our #1 pick. Tap here. Performance exceeded expectations driven by broad-based execution across residential, commercial, and energy segments, with SaaS and license revenue growing 11% year-over-year. The commercial business benefited from strong enterprise demand for video surveillance, particularly for AI-enabled services that transition video from a security tool to an operational data gathering tool. EnergyHub delivered healthy growth as utilities increasingly rely on distributed energy resource programs to maintain grid reliability during periods of extreme heat and high demand. International operations reached a milestone of 1 million active subscriber accounts across 70 countries, validating long-term investments in platform localization and partner network development. The launch of a new commercial fire communicator targets an addressable market of 4 million to 5 million existing fire panels in the U.S. and Canada, leveraging existing cellular infrastructure. Hardware gross margins expanded by 180 basis points due to a favorable mix of enterprise hardware sales and increased activity in EnergyHub's low-carbon fuel credit business. Management raised the full-year 2026 SaaS and license revenue guidance to between $754 million and $754.4 million, reflecting second-quarter outperformance. The company remains on a steady path toward achieving a 21% adjusted EBITDA margin exit rate by the end of 2027. Growth initiatives, including EnergyHub and Commercial, are expected to represent approximately 35% of total revenue for the full year, growing at a 25% to 30% rate. Strategic focus for 2027 involves scaling the commercial fire offering to establish a steady-state demand profile among the estimated 3,000 service providers active in that segment. Future ARPU expansion is expected to be driven by Remote Video Monitoring (RVM) and specialized sensors, such as gunshot detection, in both residential and commercial markets. Revenue retention remained stable in the 95% range for the third consecutive quarter, providing a durable foundation for the residential business. GAAP net income declined year-over-year primarily due to lower interest income following the retirement of $500 million in convertible notes in January. The company repurch…Read full document

The company repurchased 570,000 shares for $25 million during the quarter, continuing to utilize the $150 million buyback authorization to offset dilution. EnergyHub's revenue model includes facilitating the sale of low-carbon transportation credits from EV charging data, which introduces seasonal dynamics to the growth profile. One stock. Nvidia-level potential. 30M+ investors trust Moby to find it first. Get the pick. Tap here. Management views the energy sector as a 'rising tide' market where high demand from data centers and EVs makes EnergyHub's grid-harvesting technology more cost-effective than building new supply. The solution is currently only 2% penetrated in the North American TAM, suggesting significant headroom for growth as utilities integrate more variable solar and wind power. The product was developed in response to dealer demand and leverages existing R&D from the universal communicator to minimize incremental investment. The business model mirrors residential with hardware sales and monthly recurring fees, though fire hardware is sold at near-neutral margins to drive higher-ARPU service adoption. Reaching the first 1 million international subscribers required significant infrastructure and localization work, similar to the early 'slog' of the core North American business. Management anticipates the next 1 million international subscribers will be acquired faster now that critical infrastructure and partner momentum are established. Strength in the commercial segment is currently skewed toward enterprise customers who are 'future-proofing' with AI-powered video solutions. AI is shifting the value proposition from simple surveillance to operational intelligence, allowing customers to use video for non-security business questions.

Third-quarter SaaS and license revenue growth is expected to slow to approximately 8.3% year-over-year, down from 11% in Q2. Hardware and other revenue growth was modest at 5.5% year-over-year, with hardware gross margins lower for the new Fire Communicator. Free cash flow in Q2 was affected by working capital timing, though full-year conversion is still expected at 90%. The Fire Communicator is a new product with uncertain adoption, and management expects it will take time to scale and size up steady-state demand. Q: Could you provide more detail on the EnergyHub market? Is this a rising tide market given utility trends, or is EnergyHub taking market share?A: Steve Trundle (CEO) stated that the overall market is growing due to energy supply shortages, data center demand, and electrification. Utilities must choose between expensive build-outs or solutions like EnergyHub that harvest supply off the grid. The value of the solution increases as supply variability grows with more wind and solar. EnergyHub is benefiting as the market leader, expanding from thermostat demand response to include EVs, chargers, and batteries. The company is only about 2% penetrated in the North American TAM, leaving significant headroom for growth. Q: How much of the recent acceleration in SaaS revenue is from EnergyHub versus the broader emerging solutions?A: Kevin Bradley (CFO) explained it is a mix of both, but more so EnergyHub. The growth initiatives collectively represent about 35% of revenue and grew over 30% year-over-year in Q2, contributing roughly 900 basis points of growth. EnergyHub's growth rate impact is accelerating the quickest, while commercial is also contributing to an accelerating growth rate due to its weighting. International is contributing a steady growth rate. Q: Why launch the Fire Communicator now, and what is the advantage versus incumbents? How does the business model compare to residential?A: Steve Trundle (CEO) said the launch was driven by dealer demand as the partner base has shifted more commercial. The company leveraged R&D from its Universal Communicator to create the fire product with minimal incremental investment. The advantage is efficiency for service providers managing on the Alarm.com platform and a single pane of glass for customers. Kevin Bradley (CFO) added that the delivery model is channel-based like residential, with hardware sold at a gross profit neutral level and services representing roughly 2 times the ARPU of a typical residential account. Q: With international surpassing 1 million subscribers, will the next million come faster, similar to the core business trajectory?A: Steve Trundle (CEO) acknowledged the first million in the core business was a long process, and he hopes the same applies internationally. The company has built critical infrastructure, localized the product for 70 markets, and developed a partner base. While there have been ups and downs, including partner change-of-control events, the company now has momentum and knowledge of what works. He expects the next million to come more easily and faster than the first. Q: Where are you seeing outsized strength in commercial video, and how are you enabling the sales force to sell newer offerings?A: Steve Trundle (CEO) noted strength was more on the enterprise side with larger video deployments. Customers are installing AI-powered products to future-proof their businesses, and there is a shift from video as surveillance to video as an operational data-gathering tool. The mix includes both new logos and ongoing demand from existing customers adding facilities. The company has worked to enable cross-selling opportunities and align sales efforts. Q: How should we think about the cadence of sales and marketing hiring and margin leverage going forward?A: Kevin Bradley (CFO) said the base case is that S&M as a percentage of revenue will stay roughly flat. Total employees have been flat since mid-2024, growing at a CAGR of about 0.4%. Leverage is coming from G&A and, to a smaller extent, R&D. Over the next year or two, total employees will likely remain roughly flat, with a slight shift in complexion towards sales and marketing spend. Q: Can you frame the addressable market for the Fire Communicator and how meaningful it could become to growth?A: Steve Trundle (CEO) estimated the addressable market of commercial buildings in North America at $4 million to $5 million. About 3,000 of the company's service providers are engaged in commercial fire and could deploy the product. Since launch, nearly 1,000 units are in the ground. The company will use 2027 to size up steady-state demand and better estimate long-term market capture. Q: What does the current M&A pipeline look like, and how are you thinking about share repurchases after the stock rally?A: Kevin Bradley (CFO) said the company was aggressive in buybacks at a 12 PE, which is rare for SaaS. They will remain active at a minimum to offset stock-based compensation dilution. Steve Trundle (CEO) added that the M&A process is active, with opportunities being evaluated in the energy and commercial security markets, ranging from tuck-ins to sizable deals, though nothing is ready to announce. Q: What are the new potential residential and commercial ARPU drivers outside of commercial fire?A: Steve Trundle (CEO) identified remote video monitoring (RVM) as the biggest near-term driver on the residential side, where live operators can respond to events like an arson attempt before they escalate. On the commercial side, RVM and active shooter detection sensors are key ARPU drivers. Longer term, the company will partner with players bringing autonomous devices, including drones, to the security market. Q: Can you confirm the growth initiatives (international, commercial, EnergyHub) are accelerating, and are the numbers around 35% of revenue growing 30% plus correct?A: Kevin Bradley (CFO) confirmed the numbers are correct. He noted that for the full year 2026, the prior guidance of 35% of revenue growing 25% to 30% is about right. EnergyHub's revenue is annual and recurring, creating seasonal dynamics. Q2 happens to be a faster-growing quarter because programs launched in Q2 are growing faster, which explains the acceleration.

Alarm.com said its OpenEye commercial business generated strong SaaS and hardware revenue as enterprise customers expanded video-surveillance deployments. Trundle said those customers increasingly adopted more advanced AI-enabled services. → Meta’s Earnings Drop Shows Wall Street Wants More Than Ad Growth During the quarter, the company launched a Fire Communicator for commercial customers. The product transmits alarm signals to monitoring stations while also sending notifications to designated users through Alarm.com applications and services. Trundle said the product is designed to work with most new and existing fire panels and relies on Alarm.com’s cellular communications infrastructure and back-end platform. Fire communicators are often replaced independently from fire alarm control panels, particularly when legacy equipment fails testing or loses network support as cellular networks change. → Jersey Mike's Serves Fresh Gains After IPO Stumble Management estimates the addressable market includes 4 million to 5 million fire panels across the U.S. and Canada. Trundle said roughly 3,000 of Alarm.com’s service providers are involved in the commercial fire business to some extent and could potentially deploy the offering. The company had nearly 1,000 units installed within the first two to three weeks after launch, though Trundle said adoption will take time to develop through the service-provider channel. Bradley said the Fire Communicator’s delivery model is channel-based, similar to Alarm.com’s residential offerings. The company expects hardware gross margin for the product to be neutral to slightly positive, while recurring service revenue could be about twice the average revenue per user of a typical residential account. EnergyHub continued to grow as utilities expanded distributed energy resource and demand-response programs. Trundle said the market is benefiting from growing power demand, including demand related to data centers and vehicle electrification, as well as a more variable energy supply mix that includes wind and solar power. Over the July 4 weekend, utilities dispatched more than 300 demand-response events through EnergyHub across more than 30 states and Ontario, the company said. Those events shifted 17.5 gigawatt hours of electricity, which Trundle said was roughly equal to New York City’s total electricity consumption for more than two hours. Trundle said EnergyHub has expanded beyond thermostat-based demand-response programs to include electric vehicles, EV chargers and batteries. He estimated the company is currently about 2% penetrated in the North American total addressable market, with somewhat higher penetration among utilities that already have EnergyHub programs. Bradley said EnergyHub is the growth initiative contributing most rapidly to the company’s accelerating SaaS growth rate. International, commercial and EnergyHub businesses represented about 35% of revenue in the second quarter and grew by more than 30% year over year, though the company expects those operations to account for roughly 35% of revenue and grow 25% to 30% for the full year. Alarm.com’s international business surpassed 1 million active subscriber accounts during the quarter. The company operates with service-provider partners in more than 70 countries. Trundle said the business has established critical infrastructure and localized products across its markets, and he expects the next 1 million international accounts to come faster than the first, though he did not predict an exact pace. Hardware and other revenue increased 5.5% to about $89 million. The company cited strong enterprise demand in commercial video as well as increased activity in EnergyHub’s low-carbon and renewable-fuel credit business. The sales mix contributed to a 180-basis-point year-over-year expansion in hardware gross margin. GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders declined to $24.2 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, from $34.6 million a year earlier. Bradley said lower interest income following the January retirement of $500 million in convertible notes was a key contributor to the decline. Non-GAAP adjusted net income rose about 17% to $41.1 million, while non-GAAP diluted earnings per share increased 24% to $0.77. Alarm.com ended the quarter with $479.4 million in cash and generated $37 million in free cash flow. The company repurchased about 570,000 shares for $25 million during the quarter, bringing repurchases since the beginning of 2025 to 1.8 million shares. It continues to operate under a $150 million share-buyback authorization.

(*) Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures are set forth at the end of this press release. (^) During the first quarter of 2026, the Company revised its definition of certain non-GAAP metrics to exclude gains and losses on investments with readily determinable fair value. Comparable information for the prior periods presented has been updated to conform to the current presentation. Further details are set forth at the end of this press release. Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement our consolidated selected financial data presented on a basis consistent with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders, non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders per share and non-GAAP free cash flow. We have included non-GAAP measures in this press release because they are financial, operating or liquidity measures used by our management to (i) understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends and generate future operating plans, (ii) make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and investments in initiatives that are focused on cultivating new markets for our solutions and (iii) provide useful information to management about the amount of cash generated by the business after necessary capital expenditures. We also use non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure under our executive bonus plan. Further, we believe that these non-GAAP measures of our financial results provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, business trends and financial condition. While we believe the use of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors and management in analyzing our financial performance, non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts and transactions that are included in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures do not serve as an alternative to GAAP nor do we consider our non-GAAP measures in isolation. Accordingly, we present non-GAAP financial measures only in connection with GAAP results. We urge investors to consider non-GAAP measures only in conjunction with our GAAP financials and to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which are included in this press release. We consider non-GAAP free cash flow to be a liquidity measure, which we define as cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. With respect to our expectations under "Financial Outlook" above, reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders guidance to the closest corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to the charges excluded from these non-GAAP measures. In particular, non-ordinary course litigation expense, acquisition-related expense and tax adjustments can have unpredictable fluctuations based on unforeseen activity that is out of our control and/or cannot reasonably be predicted. We expect the above charges to have a significant and potentially highly variable impact on our future GAAP financial results. We exclude one or more of the following items from non-GAAP financial and operating measures: Interest expense: We record interest expense primarily related to the January 2021 issuance of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due January 15, 2026, or the 2026 Notes, and the May 2024 issuance of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.25% convertible senior notes due June 1, 2029, or the 2029 Notes. We exclude interest expense in calculating our non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. For non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders per share, basic and diluted, we do not exclude interest expense other than the interest expense related to the amortization of debt issuance costs related to the 2026 Notes and 2029 Notes as discussed below. Interest income and certain activity within other expense, net: We exclude interest income as well as certain activity within other expense, net including gains, losses or impairments on investments with readily determinable fair values and without readily determinable fair values and on other assets, gains on settlement fees as well as losses on the early extinguishment of the debt, when applicable, from our non-GAAP financial measures because we do not consider it part of our ongoing results of operations. Provision for income taxes: We exclude the impact related to our provision for income taxes from our non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA calculation. We do not consider this tax adjustment to be part of our ongoing results of operations. Income from equity method investments, net: We exclude income from equity method investments, net from our non-GAAP financial measures because we do not consider it part of our ongoing results of operations. Amortization expense: GAAP requires that operating expenses include the amortization of acquired intangible assets, which principally include acquired customer relationships, developed technology and trade names. We exclude amortization of intangibles from our non-GAAP financial measures because we do not consider amortization expense when we evaluate our ongoing business operations, nor do we factor amortization expense into our evaluation of potential acquisitions, or our measurement of the performance of those acquisitions. We believe that the exclusion of amortization expense enables the comparison of our performance to other companies in our industry as other companies may be more or less acquisitive than we are and therefore, amortization expense may vary significantly by company based on their acquisition history. Although we exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets from our non-GAAP financial measures, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Depreciation expense: We record depreciation primarily for investments in property and equipment. We exclude depreciation in calculating non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA because we do not consider depreciation when we evaluate our ongoing business operations. For non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders per share, basic and diluted, we do not exclude depreciation. Amortization of debt issuance costs: We record amortization of debt issuance costs related to the 2026 Notes and 2029 Notes as interest expense. We exclude amortization of debt issuance costs from our non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders per share, basic and diluted, because we believe that the exclusion of this non-cash interest expense will provide for more meaningful information about our financial performance. Stock-based compensation expense: We exclude stock-based compensation expense, which relates to restricted stock units and other forms of equity incentives primarily awarded to employees of Alarm.com, because they are non-cash charges that we do not consider when assessing the operating performance of our business. Additionally, the determination of stock-based compensation expense can be calculated using various methodologies and is dependent upon subjective assumptions and other factors that vary on a company-by-company basis. Therefore, we believe that excluding stock-based compensation expense from our non-GAAP financial measures improves the comparability of our results to the results of other companies in our industry. Acquisition-related expense: Included in operating expenses are incremental costs directly related to business and asset acquisitions as well as changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, when applicable. We exclude acquisition-related expense from our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that the exclusion of this expense allows us to better provide meaningful information about our operating performance, facilitates comparisons to our historical operating results, improves the comparability of our results to the results of other companies in our industry, and ultimately, we believe helps investors better understand the acquisition-related expense and the effects of the transaction on our results of operations. Litigation expense: We exclude non-ordinary course litigation expense because we do not consider legal costs and settlement fees incurred and received in litigation and litigation-related matters of non-ordinary course lawsuits and other disputes, particularly costs incurred in ongoing intellectual property litigation, to be indicative of our core operating performance. We do not adjust for ordinary course legal expenses, including those expenses resulting from maintaining and enforcing our intellectual property portfolio and license agreements.

Alarm.com Holdings (ALRM) Q2 Earnings and Revenues Top Estimates

Zacks
Alarm.com Holdings (ALRM) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.77 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.65 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.6 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items. This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +18.46%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this security service company would post earnings of $0.6 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.65, delivering a surprise of +8.33%. Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times. Alarm.com, which belongs to the Zacks Security and Safety Services industry, posted revenues of $277.73 million for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.87%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $254.31 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters. The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call. Alarm.com shares have added about 11.1% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 12.8%. While Alarm.com has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock? There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately. Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions. Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Alarm.com was favorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) for the stock.

Earnings source - 72 paragraphs
Operator

After the speaker's presentation, there'll be a question and answer session. To ask a question during the session, you'll need to press star one one on your telephone. You will then hear an automated message advising your hand is raised. To withdraw your question, please press star one one again. Please be advised today's conference is being recorded. I would now like to hand the conference over to your speaker today, Matthew Zartman. Please go ahead.

Matthew Zartman

Thank you, operator. Good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to Alarm.com's Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. Please note that this call is being recorded. Joining us today are Steve Trundle, our CEO, and Kevin Bradley, our CFO. During today's call, we will be making forward-looking statements, which are predictions, projections, estimates, and/or other statements about future events. These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from our current expectations. We refer you to the risk factors discussed in our Form 8-K and the associated press release, which were filed with the SEC earlier today. The call is subject to these risk factors. We encourage you to review them. Alarm.com assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements or other information that speak as of their respective dates.

Matthew Zartman

In addition, several non-GAAP financial measures will be discussed on the call. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures can be found in today's press release on our investor relations website. I'll now turn the call over to Steve Trundle. Steve?

Steve Trundle

Thank you, Matt. Good afternoon. Welcome to everyone. We're pleased to report second quarter results that exceeded our expectations. Our SaaS and licensed revenue in the quarter was $188.8 million, up 11% year-over-year. Our adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $57.7 million. Our Q2 performance reflects continued execution by our service provider partners and our employees. I want to thank them for their contributions during the quarter. Today, I'll review the key drivers of our performance, discuss a recent expansion of our commercial platform, and provide an update on the continued growth we see in our EnergyHub utility programs. Generally speaking, we saw most areas of the business perform above plan. Our residential business was steady as revenue retention continued to provide a modest tailwind. In our commercial business, OpenEye delivered strong SaaS and hardware revenue results as enterprise customers continued to expand their video surveillance deployments.

Steve Trundle

They often did so with increased adoption of our more powerful AI-enabled services. EnergyHub also delivered healthy SaaS growth as utility customers expanded the scale and capabilities of their distributed energy resource programs. During the quarter, our international business also surpassed 1 million active subscriber accounts. This milestone is only possible because of the work we have invested in localizing our platform and developing a productive network of international service provider partners in over 70 countries. The commercial business continues to progress as our service provider partners and commercial integrators adopt more components of our unified video, access control, and commercial intrusion platform. We recently expanded into an additional commercial category with the launch of our Fire Communicator. Our new offering transmits alarm signals to a monitoring station while simultaneously delivering notifications to designated users through the Alarm.com applications and services.

Steve Trundle

Many of our existing partners already service a number of commercial fire monitoring installations and use Fire Communicators routinely, just not ours. Fire Communicators are typically replaced independently of the fire alarm control panel. This tends to occur when legacy communicators fail regular tests or lose network support as cellular networks evolve. Our new Fire Communicator leverages our cellular communication infrastructure and our back-end platform to deliver a more efficient product for our service providers to manage at scale. We designed our Fire Communicator to be compatible with most new and existing fire panels, which are widely required in commercial buildings. We estimate that the addressable market for our new product consists of 4 million-5 million fire panels in the U.S. and Canada. As with any newly launched product, driving adoption through our service provider channel will take some work.

Steve Trundle

We see a long-term opportunity to build a position in the commercial fire space and are excited to now have this product and service in the market. Turning to EnergyHub, utilities continue to grow their flexibility programs that increasingly rely upon EnergyHub to maintain grid reliability, particularly during periods of high demand. The leverage from EnergyHub's technology was evident earlier this summer during periods of extreme heat. Over the July 4th weekend, utilities dispatched more than 300 demand response events across more than 30 states and Ontario through EnergyHub. Collectively, these events shifted 17.5 gigawatt hours of electricity, roughly equal to New York City's total electricity consumption for more than two hours. Back on the security side, I also want to share a couple of recent examples of how our technology and service provider partners protect lives and property.

Steve Trundle

A few weeks ago, I was made aware of an incident where one of our remote video monitoring deployments spotted an individual attempting to set fire to an occupied home by dousing it with what appeared to be gasoline and then igniting it. Using our technology, a central station operator was alerted to the arsonist's presence, verified what was happening, and quickly contacted authorities. The family inside the home escaped without injury. In a separate recent incident, one of our outdoor gunshot detection sensors detected gunfire directly at a busy outdoor area. Authorities quickly responded to the gunshot signal and secured the area. They were able to apprehend a suspect before there was any loss of life.

Steve Trundle

We don't often report on these incidents, but just as EnergyHub is enabling a more reliable grid in the heat of the summer, our life safety solutions are operating all the time, protecting communities and while providing a durable foundation for our business. We are thankful to have established partnerships with many service providers through the years that treat this life safety mission as importantly as we do and then do a great job on the ground every day. We believe deeply in our mission and in the enduring value of security. In summary, I'm pleased with our strong second quarter results. Our performance reflects the diversity of our business, and we are excited to continue our progress in the second half of the year. I'll now turn the call over to Kevin Bradley, our CFO, to review our financial results. Kevin?

Kevin Bradley

Thanks, Steve. I'll begin by reviewing highlights from our second quarter financial results and then close with our updated guidance for the third quarter and full year 2026. Midway through the year, I'm pleased to report another quarter of execution against our financial plan. SaaS and license revenue grew 11.1% year-over-year to approximately $188.8 million during the quarter, exceeding the midpoint of our guidance by approximately $3.2 million. For the third consecutive quarter, revenue retention remained in the 95% range. Our commercial initiatives and EnergyHub also contributed nicely, collectively growing more than 30% year-over-year. Hardware and other revenue totaled approximately $89 million, an increase of 5.5% year-over-year. During the second quarter, we saw particularly strong demand from enterprise buyers in our Commercial Video segment. We also benefited from increased activity in EnergyHub's low carbon and renewable fuel credit business.

Kevin Bradley

Through this business, EnergyHub uses charging data from its electric vehicle manufacturing partners to facilitate the generation and sale of low carbon transportation credits to obligated fuel suppliers in certain states, retaining a portion of the value generated as revenue. This mix of enterprise hardware sales drove a 180 basis point expansion in hardware gross margin year-over-year, allowing us to fund just over 70% of our sales and marketing costs in the quarter from hardware gross profit. During the second quarter, total operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization, were $149.6 million. Total operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and other items we adjust from G&A for non-GAAP purposes, were approximately $123.7 million, a 4.6% increase year-over-year. R&D expense in the quarter, inclusive of stock-based compensation, was approximately $71 million, a 2.8% increase year-over-year. We ended Q2 with 1,148 employees in R&D functions.

Kevin Bradley

For those newer to our story, research and development is by design our largest area of investment. Our predominantly indirect business models allow us to sustain a high level of R&D investment while remaining capital efficient. In our symbiotic relationships, service provider partners are primarily responsible for customer acquisition and support, so our sales and marketing expense is well below most other SaaS businesses. At the same time, our R&D investments support high margin, durable recurring revenue tied to connected devices that typically remain in service for nearly a decade. The result is a model that has averaged north of a 20% return on operating invested capital over the past eight years. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA grew 15.7% year-over-year to approximately $57.7 million.

Kevin Bradley

This comparison reflects the revised definition of our non-GAAP profitability metrics that we adopted last quarter, which removes the effect of mark-to-market gains and losses on equity securities in our treasury portfolio applied to both periods. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 20.8%, approximately 115 basis points higher than in the year-ago quarter. GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders was approximately $24.2 million in the quarter, or $0.48 per diluted share, down from approximately $34.6 million a year ago. A key driver of the decline was lower interest income on excess cash following the retirement of $500 million of convertible notes in January. Non-GAAP adjusted net income increased approximately 17% from the year-ago quarter to $41.1 million. We produced $0.77 of non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, a 24% increase year-over-year.

Kevin Bradley

We ended the quarter with $479.4 million of cash on the balance sheet and produced $37 million of free cash flow. Free cash flow in the quarter was affected in part by working capital timing. We continue to expect adjusted EBITDA to free cash flow conversion of approximately 90% for the year. We repurchased approximately 570,000 shares for $25 million during the quarter, bringing our total share repurchases since the beginning of 2025 to 1.8 million shares. We continue to operate under the $150 million buyback authorization our board approved earlier this year. I'll turn now to our financial outlook. For the third quarter of 2026, we expect SaaS and license revenue of between $189.8 million and $190 million, representing approximately 8.3% growth at the midpoint. For the full year 2026, we are raising our SaaS and license revenue outlook to between $754 million and $754.4 million.

Kevin Bradley

This is an increase of approximately $4.2 million from our May guidance and represents approximately 9.4% growth for the year at the midpoint. We are raising our total revenue outlook for 2026 to between $1.079 billion and $1.089 billion, which includes hardware and other revenue of between $325 million and $335 million. This increases our hardware outlook by approximately $15 million at the midpoint from our previous guidance provided in May. We are raising our non-GAAP adjusted EBIT outlook for 2026 to between $221 million and $223 million, an increase of approximately $6.5 million at the midpoint. The increase flows our second quarter outperformance through to the full year and keeps us on a steady path toward our previously established target of a 21% adjusted EBITDA margins exiting 2027.

Kevin Bradley

Non-GAAP adjusted net income for 2026 is projected to be between $156 million and $157 million, or approximately $2.92 to $2.94 per diluted share, an increase of approximately $0.11 from our prior guidance. EPS is based on approximately 56.3 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the year, down modestly from our prior estimate given our buyback activity. We currently project our non-GAAP tax rate for 2026 to remain at approximately 21% under current tax rules. We expect full year 2026 stock-based compensation expense of between $34 million and $35 million. In closing, I'm pleased with the broad-based momentum we've seen across the business so far this year. We delivered a solid quarter against our plan, and we believe we are well-positioned to deliver continued revenue growth and profitability in the second half while investing to expand our long-term opportunities. With that, operator, please open the call for Q&A.

Operator

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. If you have a question or a comment at this time, please press star one one on your telephone. If your question has been answered and you wish to remove yourself from the queue, please press star one one again. We'll pause for a moment while we compile our Q&A roster. One moment for our first question. Our first question comes from Saket Kalia with Barclays. Your line is open.

Saket Kalia

Okay, great. Hey, guys. Thanks for taking my questions here.

Steve Trundle

Hey.

Saket Kalia

Hey, Steve, maybe for you, could you maybe just talk about the market that EnergyHub competes in just a little deeper? Maybe more specifically, is this a rising tide market, just given everything that's happening in utilities, or do you feel like EnergyHub is able to take market share as well?

Steve Trundle

Hey. Sure, I'll be glad to talk about that a bit more. I guess to the last question, is it a rising tide? Yes. We think that the overall market is growing. The value from variable supply is going up. I think it's well-known there's a shortage of supply in the energy market. Data centers are eating more. We're electrifying cars, et cetera. From the utility perspective, you have to either pursue long-term, expensive build-outs to produce new supply, or you look for solutions like EnergyHub that can harvest supply off the grid and then repurpose that. The latter is far less expensive. The need for the latter, which is what we do, increases as the variability of the supply actually increases. As wind, solar, and other sources become a bigger component of our grid's makeup, the value of the EnergyHub solution goes up.

Steve Trundle

In general, I think it's a rising market. I don't really know for sure if we're taking share from others. I just know that we're benefiting as the leader in that market, and we've expanded the range of the EnergyHub solution now to move from really thermostat demand response types of solutions to a full solution that also includes EVs, EV chargers, batteries, and thermostats. We're attaching to more devices in the average property now than ever before, and yet we still have a ton of headroom there in the TAM. At the moment, we're probably 2% penetrated in the North American TAM, maybe a little higher than that in the base of utilities where we have programs, which is more than half of the utilities.

Steve Trundle

Overall, there's a lot of room to grow sort of the attachment to the meters that we already are positioned to service and grow that business nicely, the market's demanding that we do that.

Saket Kalia

Got it. That makes a ton of sense. Kevin, maybe for my follow-up for you, maybe staying on EnergyHub. I think it's been a couple quarters now of a little bit of acceleration in that SaaS revenue line. Maybe the question is how much that has come from really what sounds like a few good quarters of EnergyHub, or is that really coming from that growing mix of broader emerging solutions?

Kevin Bradley

Yeah. Hey, Saket. Thanks. I think the answer is it's a little bit of both of those things. I'd say more so EnergyHub, but also collectively what we call the growth initiatives. Any single thing's contribution to our consolidated growth rate is a function of how much revenue there is, its weighting in the portfolio, how fast it's growing. The growth initiatives sort of writ large are just about 35% of revenue now, and second quarter grew a little over 30% year-over-year. They are collectively contributing about 900 basis points of growth rate this year in the second quarter. Some of that is inorganic, obviously, tucked into EnergyHub. Among the three of them, EnergyHub is certainly the one whose growth rate impact is accelerating the quickest.

Kevin Bradley

Commercial is also a contributor to an accelerating growth rate a little bit due to that weighting characteristic. I would characterize international as sort of contributing about steady growth rate the past several quarters.

Saket Kalia

Super helpful, guys. Thank you.

Operator

Again, ladies and gentlemen, if you have a question or a comment at this time, please press star one one on your telephone. One moment for our next question. Our next question comes from Adam Tindle with Raymond James. Your line is open.

Adam Tindle

Okay, thanks. Good afternoon, congrats on a good quarter. Steve, I wanted to start on the commercial side of the business and specifically around the Fire Communicator, which I thought was interesting. That's a market that, as you mentioned, is fairly sizable, and it's been around for a while. Kind of twofold question: why now? Second, what is the advantage that you bring to this versus sort of the big incumbent that plays in this space? Kevin, if you could touch on how the business model in that side of the business would be similar or different from traditional residential as that grows. Thanks.

Steve Trundle

Hey, Adam. Good question. Why now, I guess is the first part of it. I'd say the biggest sort of reason is we simply listen to our dealers, and we've had some demand from our dealers, from our partners, for us to provide a solution in this segment. I think that's a function of the fact that if you just think about our business over the last three or four years, there's been a shift more towards the commercial side of the intrusion space and the video surveillance space. Therefore, the folks we interact with today have a little different makeup than maybe what would have been the case five years ago when we were a more dominant residential platform.

Steve Trundle

As we've seen growth on the commercial side, the cadence of request for us to bring a solution to bear on the commercial fire side has sort of increased. That's probably the biggest reason. We had an opportunity to also take advantage of some of the, and get some leverage out of the R&D that we put into producing what we call the Universal Communicator that we launched some time ago. A lot of the work we did there was work that we could use as a foundation for the creation of the commercial fire product. It made sense to pursue that because the incremental investment was not dramatic. I guess the advantage to the market is both, first, the service provider, our dealer, wants to have as much as they can on our back-end platform.

Steve Trundle

It allows them to more efficiently manage their customer base, schedule their work, know what's happening with all of their paying customers. That's one advantage. There's also, from the customer perspective, a single pane of glass situation where you can see the status of everything in your building all the time in one place. It works similarly. You set up the same types of addresses. There's some advantages there, especially within our existing customer base, that we think will help us create some pull-through for the new product. I guess I'll leave the second part to you, Kevin.

Kevin Bradley

On the business model, so if we split that into the delivery model, the price metrics, and the price level, as Steve was saying, the delivery model is the same as residential in much of our other offerings. It's channel based. The price metrics are also the same, meaning we sell a piece of hardware, and then we bill on a per month, per subscriber basis, per building basis, in this case. The price levels are what changes. In this case, what we're doing is we're selling the hardware at more of a gross profit neutral or slightly positive level. It's a little bit lower gross margin than the rest of our blended hardware gross margin portfolio. On the services side, it represents, call it 2x, the ARPU probably of what we would get for a typical residential account.

Adam Tindle

Got it. That's helpful. Thanks. Maybe a follow-up. Steve, one of the other things that stood out to me in your prepared remarks was over 1 million active subscribers in the international business, and congrats on that. I'm just reflecting on having covered you guys for years. If I think back to the core residential business, the path to the first million subscribers was longer, and then the incremental million after that truncated the timeline, right? The next million happens faster, right?

Steve Trundle

Yeah.

Adam Tindle

I wonder if you might sort of reflect on that and apply it to the international business and think about any opportunities that you see to maybe accelerate that piece. Thanks.

Steve Trundle

Right. No. Good observation. Yeah. The first million in the core business, in our business when we started was a slog. It took forever. You had to build a lot of infrastructure. You had to find all the right partners. It was really defining in terms of whether or not we were going to make it. I'd like to believe the same is true here. We certainly have some calluses from our work internationally, especially in really trying to bring the product around to a localized state that works in the 70 markets that we're servicing. Done a lot of work to lay in place the base of service provider partners there. We've had some ups and downs.

Steve Trundle

We've had quite a bit of change of control type of activity in our partner base internationally. Each one of those events will cause a little bit of a pothole along the way. We've gotten to where we are now, and will it be as easy as sort of the next million in North America? I'm hesitant to say that we'll see an exact replication of that, but I certainly feel like it gets you to a level. We're at a level where we have the critical infrastructure in the ground. We have some momentum. We know these markets. We kind of know what's worked, what hasn't worked, and where to look next. I would hope that the next million comes more easily and faster than the first million, absolutely.

Adam Tindle

Sounds good. Thank you, guys.

Steve Trundle

Sure.

Operator

One moment for our next question. Our next question comes from Samad Samana with Jefferies. Your line is open.

Jordan Boretz

This is Jordan Boretz on for Samad. Great to see the strong results. Steve, in the prepared remarks, you mentioned that commercial customers are expanding their video surveillance deployments, specifically that's being driven by AI-enabled products. It seems like the sales force is effectively executing on the opportunity around the growth initiatives that you've spoken to over the past few quarters. Could you speak to the market segments where you're seeing outsized strength or success? Is it a specific vertical or size? Maybe parse out whether it's new versus existing customers. Then are you enabling the sales force to best succeed in selling these newer offerings that they're maybe a little bit less familiar with at first?

Steve Trundle

Right. Good question, Jordan. We generally think of commercial as sort of enterprise then small business. I would say during the last quarter anyway, more of the strength was on the enterprise side, which would be larger customers that are doing larger video deployments. I think what we're seeing there is first, a couple things. First, folks are thinking about with AI, making sure they're installing products that future-proof their business, that give them the ability to sort of seize the opportunity, not just today, but for the next couple of years. We're pretty well-positioned there with our AI-powered video camera solution, especially on the OpenEye side. I think there's also with that, a thing that's driving some of the demand is just the shift from video as a surveillance tool towards video as a operational data gathering tool.

Steve Trundle

Some of the interface elements we've added to the platform allow people more easily now to ask questions of what's happening in their business that are only marginally related to security. People want that. That's driving some demand. We've done some work, to your point on the sales team and empowering the sales team. We've done some work to better enable cross-selling opportunities to make sure that we're aligned in what we're trying to achieve. In terms of the mix, the nice thing on the enterprise side is it's a nice mix of both new logos, but also once you're in at a site, if you perform and you do well, there's sort of a steady stream of ongoing demand as they add facilities or as they identify locations where additional cameras may be needed.

Steve Trundle

We get a very positive revenue retention characteristic from that part of the market that has been helpful to our commercial performance.

Jordan Boretz

Appreciate the color. Kevin, maybe a quick question for you. Great to see the strong EBITDA results. I wanted to dig into margin a bit, and specifically sales and marketing expense. It's held constant as a percentage of revenue in the past few quarters, which is great to see. As we think about the go forward, how are you thinking about the cadence of hiring, specifically within S&M, and where is there opportunity for maybe a little bit of leverage as the business continues to scale?

Kevin Bradley

Yeah. It's a good question. I think our base case is that as a percentage of revenue, it's going to probably stay roughly flat over time. We continue to add employees in sales and marketing, obviously, but it's for the most part trending with the rate of revenue growth. We've seen a little bit more leverage. Actually, if you zoom out and take a two-year view, the number of total employees we have is about flat going back to the middle of 2024. It's grown at a CAGR of 0.4% or something like that. That leverage is really coming in other places. It's coming from G&A and to a smaller extent, in R&D. I think if we look forward near-term over the next year or two, I suspect you'd probably see a similar story. Total employees roughly flat as we do a little bit more with the same.

Kevin Bradley

You'll see a slight complexion shift towards sales and marketing spend, and possibly employees, and maybe slightly further away from other areas.

Jordan Boretz

Awesome. Thanks for taking my questions. Congrats again.

Steve Trundle

Thanks, Jordan.

Operator

Again, ladies and gentlemen, if you have a question or a comment at this time, please press star one one on your telephone. Our next question comes from Stephen Sheldon with William Blair. Your line is open.

Matt Filek

Hey, guys. You have Matt Filek on for Stephen Sheldon. Thank you for taking my questions. Wanted to start with circling back on the commercial fire question. Was wondering if you could help us frame the addressable market of that, and how meaningful the offering could become to growth over time. I know it's a new offering and it'll take some time to scale, but any additional color on how you're thinking about that opportunity would be great.

Steve Trundle

Hey, Matt. This is Steve speaking. Sure. Yeah, it's a good thing to drill down on. I think we look at the addressable market of commercial buildings in North America to be something around that, likely, by the way, are already being serviced to be somewhere between $4 million and $5 million in total. We look at the population of our service providers that we think might be engaged in this area of the business. I believe that our best estimate is that around 3,000 or so of our service providers are, at some level, engaged in the commercial fire business and could be candidates to deploy our products. That's about a third, roughly, maybe a little less than that. We're going to sort of see how it goes.

Steve Trundle

We've gotten at this moment, just with in the last 2, 3 weeks of launch, we're probably approaching 1,000 that are in the ground, and we're going to see if we can build some. That's with very few service providers moving. We're going to try to build off of that. If I were to look forward, I think we'll use 2027 to size up the steady state of demand for the product, get it introduced to all the service providers, and see really what steady state demand looks like, and then probably be in a little better position to estimate what our long-term capture of that market is and how quickly those buildings that we've identified turn over and change product. I couldn't really provide that estimate at the moment, but that gives you a feeling for what we think of as the TAM.

Matt Filek

Very helpful, Steve. Yeah, appreciate the additional detail on how you're thinking about that. For my follow-up, I just had a quick one on capital allocation. What does the current M&A pipeline broadly look like? Also curious how you're thinking about share repurchases now that shares have rallied off recent lows.

Kevin Bradley

Maybe I'll cover the latter one and then turn it over to Steve for the M&A pipeline. We were very excited the last quarter or two to see buying opportunities at things like a 12 PE. You don't see that very often in SaaS, let alone for one growing earnings double digits. We were pretty aggressive in terms of capital allocation there relative to our history. I think if you rewind the clock a little bit further back, even to Q1 or Q2 of last year, we were trading at similar prices as we are currently. I think we'll still be active in the buyback market, at a minimum, to buy back to offset the dilution from stock-based compensation.

Kevin Bradley

At these price levels, if you look back to what we were historically doing at this time, it probably gives you a pretty good sense for what you may see us do near-term.

Steve Trundle

On the M&A front, the answer here is always similar in that we run an active process. We're constantly evaluating opportunities. Oftentimes we're trying to underwrite one or two specifically to see if we can make it work. We're kind of in the same condition as always where we do have some things that we're working on. None at the moment are things I could announce publicly, but we hope that we can move some of that activity forward. I think as I've said before, we're broadly looking at opportunities that allow us to further our position in either the energy market or the commercial security market. We'll evaluate everything from a tuck-in to something fairly sizable. Nothing to announce today, just to say that we are active and have things we're considering.

Matt Filek

Very helpful. Thank you both.

Operator

One moment before our next question. Our next question comes from Jack Vander Aarde with Maxim Group. Your line is open.

Jack Vander Aarde

Okay, great. Good evening, Steve and Kevin. Congrats on solid results and yet again another raised outlook. Steve, maybe I would like to get your thoughts and any color on new potential residential and commercial ARPU drivers, and outside the commercial fire opportunity, obviously. For example, I've asked in the past about potential drone integration in applications, and I think you've previously partnered with [Sunset Labs for real estate, for example.

Steve Trundle

Right.

Jack Vander Aarde

Just any thoughts on expanding partnerships and other ARPU drivers. Thanks.

Steve Trundle

Sure. Yeah, I think on the residential side, the biggest driver of ARPU gains are currently around what's possible with the video camera and the intelligence you can provide the consumer from the video camera, whether it be on the door or whether it be under the eve of a home. Then especially with the rollout of what I think we talked more about last quarter, which is remote video monitoring, where a consumer can go to bed at night knowing that if someone wanders through their backyard, that may not set off an alarm. They're asleep, but you want someone to take a look at that and then decide if that deserves attention.

Steve Trundle

I gave an example on my prepared remarks of just that type of situation where someone wandered through a yard, didn't set off an alarm on the house, but they poured gasoline all over the home and then lit it on fire. Sure, the fire alarm would have gone off eventually, but that might have been too late. In this case, a live operator got that event from one of our video cameras. It was a very good dealer that serviced that customer and had everything set up right and it worked well and the operator responded and the family was protected. That type of capability on the residential side is becoming more in demand and that drives some ARPU there.

Steve Trundle

Over a longer period of time as we look out, yes, I think that we'll continue to sort of push on a broad category of robotics, including autonomous drones and other technology. In the near term, the bigger driver on the residential side will be RVM. On the commercial side, it's really two things. It's also RVM there. Remote video monitoring really can protect a property better when you're watching and dealing with incidents before they ever escalate and become more significant. We're also seeing, I gave another example in my prepared remarks of an active shooter detection sensor being used to prevent an issue. I won't be surprised if we see, for better or worse, more demand for that solution in the commercial space. That can also be a way that we augment what we're already doing and drive some ARPU.

Steve Trundle

Those are the two things in the near term I'm probably looking for. Longer term, I think it's going to be our job will be to partner with the various players that can bring autonomous devices to bear for the benefit of the security of the property owner.

Jack Vander Aarde

Okay, excellent. I appreciate all the color there. Then maybe a follow-up separately for Kevin. On the venture growth businesses, international plus commercial plus EnergyHub, last few quarters, I believe the rough estimate was these in aggregate represent around 33% of total SaaS and growing between 25%-30% year-over-year. I think I heard for 2Q, these actually upticked. It's around 35% and growing 30% plus. It sounds like these businesses are all accelerating, and it's good to hear the update on international hitting one million subs. Just any comments there. Is it acceleration across the board there? Are those numbers kind of correct? Thanks.

Kevin Bradley

Yeah. Those numbers are correct. I think the one thing to keep in mind, I would still say for the year, for 2026, our prior guidance of it being 35% of revenue growing 25%-30% is about right. Because EnergyHub's revenue, for the most part, is annual and recurring rather than monthly and recurring, you do get seasonal dynamics based on when certain programs launch and the rate of growth of those programs. Q2 does happen to be one of the sort of faster-growing quarters because the programs launched in Q2 happen to be, at this moment, growing faster. That's the predominant reason that you see that acceleration.

Jack Vander Aarde

Okay, great. Well, I appreciate the color, guys. I'll hop back in the queue.

Steve Trundle

Sure thing.

Operator

I'm not showing any further questions at this time. As such, this does conclude today's presentation. We thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect and have a wonderful day.

Will Alarm.com (ALRM) Beat Estimates Again in Its Next Earnings Report?

Zacks
If you are looking for a stock that has a solid history of beating earnings estimates and is in a good position to maintain the trend in its next quarterly report, you should consider Alarm.com Holdings (ALRM). This company, which is in the Zacks Security and Safety Services industry, shows potential for another earnings beat. This security service company has an established record of topping earnings estimates, especially when looking at the previous two reports. The company boasts an average surprise for the past two quarters of 8.71%. For the most recent quarter, Alarm.com was expected to post earnings of $0.6 per share, but it reported $0.65 per share instead, representing a surprise of 8.33%. For the previous quarter, the consensus estimate was $0.66 per share, while it actually produced $0.72 per share, a surprise of 9.09%. For Alarm.com, estimates have been trending higher, thanks in part to this earnings surprise history. And when you look at the stock's positive Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction), it's a great indicator of a future earnings beat, especially when combined with its solid Zacks Rank. Our research shows that stocks with the combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) or better produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time. In other words, if you have 10 stocks with this combination, the number of stocks that beat the consensus estimate could be as high as seven. The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a version of the Zacks Consensus whose definition is related to change. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier. Alarm.com has an Earnings ESP of +1.54% at the moment, suggesting that analysts have grown bullish on its near-term earnings potential. When you combine this positive Earnings ESP with the stock's Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), it shows that another beat is possibly around the corner. With the Earnings ESP metric, it's important to note that a negative value reduces its predictive power; however, a negative Earnings ESP does not indicate an earnings miss.

Q1 Vertical Software Earnings Review: First Prize Goes to Alarm.com (NASDAQ:ALRM)

StockStory
Looking back on vertical software stocks’ Q1 earnings, we examine this quarter’s best and worst performers, including Alarm.com (NASDAQ:ALRM) and its peers. Software is eating the world, and while a large number of solutions such as project management or video conferencing software can be useful to a wide array of industries, some have very specific needs. As a result, vertical software, which addresses industry-specific workflows, is growing and fueled by the pressures to improve productivity, whether it be for a life sciences, education, or banking company. The 4 vertical software stocks we track reported a strong Q1. As a group, revenues beat analysts’ consensus estimates by 3.7% while next quarter’s revenue guidance was in line. Amidst this news, share prices of the companies have had a rough stretch. On average, they are down 6.7% since the latest earnings results. Processing over 325 billion data points annually from more than 150 million connected devices, Alarm.com (NASDAQ:ALRM) provides cloud-based platforms that enable residential and commercial property owners to remotely monitor and control their security, video, energy, and other connected devices. Alarm.com reported revenues of $265.2 million, up 11% year on year. This print exceeded analysts’ expectations by 5.6%. Overall, it was a very strong quarter for the company with a solid beat of analysts’ billings and EBITDA estimates. Alarm.com pulled off the biggest analyst estimate beat and highest full-year guidance raise of the whole group. Investor expectations, however, were likely higher than Wall Street’s published projections, leaving some wishing for even better results (analysts’ consensus estimates are those published by big banks and advisory firms, not the investors who make buy and sell decisions). The stock is down 2.2% since reporting and currently trades at $45.98. Is now the time to buy Alarm.com? Access our full analysis of the earnings results here, it’s free.

For software companies, the fear was that AI would erode pricing power and compress margins as new tools made it easier to replicate what once required expensive enterprise platforms. Crypto investors had their own version of the same anxiety: if AI agents could trade, allocate capital, and manage wallets autonomously, what exactly was the long-term value of today’s crypto infrastructure? These concerns triggered a noticeable rotation away from these sectors and into safer havens. But markets rarely dwell on one narrative for long. Spring 2026 came, and the focus shifted abruptly from technological disruption to geopolitical risk. The US’ conflict with Iran became the dominant driver of market psychology, and when geopolitics takes center stage, the script changes quickly. Investors stop debating growth rates and start worrying about oil supply, inflation, and global stability. Want to invest in winners with rock-solid fundamentals? Check out our Top 6 Stocks and add them to your watchlist. These companies are poised for growth regardless of the political or macroeconomic climate.

5 Must-Read Analyst Questions From Alarm.com’s Q1 Earnings Call

StockStory
Alarm.com’s first quarter results reflected broad-based growth across its portfolio, with management crediting robust customer retention and growth in its commercial and energy businesses as key drivers. CEO Steve Trundle highlighted a revenue retention rate of 95.4%, which he described as “unusually high versus our traditional range,” and noted that the EnergyHub business provided a notable tailwind by pulling forward some revenue from later in the year. The quarter was not without challenges: Trundle cited weather-related disruptions impacting installation activity early in the quarter, as well as supply chain volatility tied to increased memory costs for hardware products driven by shifts in the semiconductor market. Despite these headwinds, management emphasized that nearly every business area performed at or above internal plans, and new AI-powered features in commercial video solutions are seeing rapid adoption.

Revenue: $265.2 million vs analyst estimates of $251 million (11% year-on-year growth, 5.6% beat) Adjusted EPS: $0.65 vs analyst estimates of $0.60 (7.6% beat) Adjusted Operating Income: $46.56 million vs analyst estimates of $28.97 million (17.6% margin, 60.7% beat) The company slightly lifted its revenue guidance for the full year to $1.07 billion at the midpoint from $1.06 billion Management slightly raised its full-year Adjusted EPS guidance to $2.82 at the midpoint EBITDA guidance for the full year is $215.5 million at the midpoint, in line with analyst expectations Operating Margin: 11.9%, in line with the same quarter last year Billings: $267.2 million at quarter end, up 11.4% year on year Market Capitalization: $2.09 billion While we enjoy listening to the management's commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls are the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention. Adam Hotchkiss (Goldman Sachs) asked what drove the SaaS and license revenue beat and whether headwinds from legacy ADT relationships remained. CEO Steve Trundle pointed to high retention and a one-time EnergyHub revenue timing benefit, while noting ADT impact was not apparent in current results.

CEO Steve Trundle pointed to high retention and a one-time EnergyHub revenue timing benefit, while noting ADT impact was not apparent in current results. Adam Hotchkiss (Goldman Sachs) followed up on AI adoption in OpenEye, asking if customers are waiting for advanced features or choosing first movers. Trundle explained that customers increasingly view AI as essential and are prioritizing providers that deliver business value through AI-driven insights. Matthew Filek (RBC Capital Markets) questioned gross margin sustainability as growth segments expand. CFO Kevin Bradley detailed expected margin profiles, with SaaS margins steady in the high 80% range and EnergyHub stabilizing near 65-70% as the mix shifts. Jack Vander Aarde (Maxim Group) inquired about EnergyHub’s growth composition and cross-sell synergy with security products. Trundle described a mix of expanding within current utilities, winning new ones, and leveraging residential channel overlap, noting synergy is still early but growing. Eleanor Smith (BofA Securities) asked about operating leverage and R&D spending. Bradley said R&D will remain roughly flat as a percentage of revenue, and that operating leverage will come as newer segments scale and market volatility is addressed. In the coming quarters, our analyst team will monitor (1) adoption rates and customer enrollment within EnergyHub’s utility partners, (2) the pace at which commercial clients adopt new AI-powered video analytics, and (3) the actual impact of hardware pricing adjustments in response to memory cost inflation. Additionally, we will track any signs of margin stabilization as hardware and SaaS mix evolves, and watch for new strategic channel partnerships or geographic expansion in commercial and energy segments.
