Conclusion
Overall, Zoom delivered a strong quarter, beating expectations across the board. The company’s guidance suggests that Q2’25 marks the low point for the year in terms of growth, with re-acceleration expected in the coming quarters. This is further supported by the growth in remaining performance obligations. Zoom continues to be a leader in innovation, demonstrated not only by its success during the COVID-19 era but also by the success of its internally developed products like Zoom Phone and Contact Center, which are key contributors to its growth.
