ZoomInfo Stock Sinks as AI Reset Turns a Q1 Beat Into a 2027 Growth Problem
ZoomInfo shares tumbled Tuesday, not because of lackluster results—the quarter itself came in fine—but investors zeroed in on the disappointing outlook. ZoomInfo outpaced its own Q1 goals, posting GAAP revenue of $310.2 million and operating income at $57.9 million. Adjusted operating income reached $109.7 million—this metric, which filters out stock-based pay and restructuring charges, is a favorite for those zeroing in on core profitability. Still, the company slashed its 2026 revenue guidance to $1.185 billion-$1.205 billion, down from $1.247 billion-$1.267 billion, and its unlevered free-cash-flow forecast now sits at $400 million-$420 million instead of the earlier $435 million-$465 million.
