Agora Inc. published the prepared remarks transcript for its Q4 2025 earnings call held on March 2, 2026, featuring comments from CEO Tony Zhao and CFO Jingbo Wang. Management highlighted a fifth consecutive quarter of GAAP profitability and the company’s first full year of GAAP profitability since 2018. Total Q4 revenue rose 10.7% year over year to $38.2 million, while GAAP net profit was $4.9 million, a 12.9% margin. “We are pleased to report our fifth consecutive quarter of GAAP profitability in Q4, marking our first full year of GAAP profitability since 2018,” the CEO said. The company also emphasized platform scale and reliability following a Super Bowl weekend livestreaming event featuring MrBeast on Whatnot, which it said reached nearly 600,000 peak concurrent viewers with sub-second latency. Quoting a customer technical blog, the CEO said: “On event day, Agora's real-time media pipeline performed reliably at peak. Time to first frame stayed under 1 second, latency remained consistently low, and video quality held stable throughout the stream.” A major focus was accelerating adoption of Agora’s Conversational AI Engine, with management saying usage has more than doubled each quarter since its March 2025 launch and pointing to deployments in customer service, smart devices, education and AI consumer apps. The CFO noted gross margin pressure from early-stage AI products, saying the decline was “primarily driven by the lower margin profile of our conversational AI related products, as usage is still ramping and remains at a subscale level.” The CFO also outlined capital return activity and an extension of the share repurchase program, and provided Q1 2026 revenue guidance of $36 million to $37 million. “Based on our current business momentum and visibility into 2026, we expect net income to grow compared to 2025,” the CFO said.
