Monday.com Stock Plummets Amid Slowing Growth and Investor Disappointment
Shares of Monday.com, a project management software company, tumbled nearly 30% this week following its Q2 earnings report. Despite revenue growth of 27% year-over-year to $299 million, the figure fell short of previous quarters' 30%+ growth rates, sparking investor concerns.
The company's high-value customer segment—those spending over $100,000 annually—expanded by 46% to 1,472 accounts. Yet this positive metric was overshadowed by persistent operating losses and decelerating top-line expansion. At Friday's midday trading, the stock languished 60% below its 2021 peak.
Market expectations remain elevated for Monday.com given its premium valuation. Investors are increasingly demanding profitability alongside growth—a balance the company has yet to achieve. The earnings miss underscores the punishing reality for SaaS firms failing to meet Wall Street's growth-profitability calculus during this risk-off market environment.
