Yext Financials
This page shows Yext (YEXT) financial statements, including the income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios. View 11 years of annual fundamentals and quarterly data, with year-over-year growth rates and compound annual growth rates (CAGR). All figures are derived from SEC filings (10-K and 10-Q reports).
Yext’s profitability turnaround came from expense-mix discipline and cash conversion, not from a structurally higher gross-margin profile.
Between FY2024 and FY2026, operating margin moved from near breakeven to10.0% even though gross margin ended lower at74.5% . Because SG&A fell to$63.3M while R&D rose to$89.9M , the improvement looks more like a reallocation of spending and tighter selling costs than a richer underlying revenue mix.

Yext has an operating margin of 10.0%, meaning the company retains $10 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 27/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is up from -7.7% the prior year.
Yext's revenue grew 6.1% year-over-year to $446.6M, a solid pace of expansion. This earns a growth score of 42/100.
Yext has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 6.03), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 0/100, reflecting increased financial risk.
Yext's current ratio of 0.79 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 10/100. This tight liquidity could limit financial flexibility if cash inflows slow.

Yext earns a strong 155.2% return on equity (ROE), meaning it generates $155 of profit for every $100 of shareholders' equity. This efficient capital use earns a returns score of 100/100. This is up from -19.7% the prior year.
Yext scores -0.29, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($417.0M) relative to total liabilities ($475.0M). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.
Yext passes 7 of 9 financial strength tests. All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), 2 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, 1 of 2 efficiency signals pass.
For every $1 of reported earnings, Yext generates $1.47 in operating cash flow ($55.8M OCF vs $38.0M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.
