Sangoma Technologies reported a solid quarter, with results largely in line with expectations, reinforcing the company’s improving fundamentals and strategic direction. Revenue came in at $58.1 million, down slightly from the previous quarter, but gross margins improved to 69%, and adjusted EBITDA reached $9.8 million—17% of revenue. Free cash flow remained strong at $8.4 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, and net debt fell from $43.3 million to $35.8 million. Over the past six months, Sangoma has generated over 12% of its market cap in operating cash flow, reflecting a resilient and cash-generative business. The most compelling signals point to a meaningful return of organic growth, a theme that is increasingly central to the investment case. The company's forward 90-day pipeline rose 24%, the large deal pipeline surged 90%, and the premium UCaaS pipeline doubled, helped in part by market share gains from bankrupt competitors. Importantly, customer satisfaction metrics soared—NPS is up 4x year-over-year, and overall satisfaction has improved 23%, which bodes well for retention and future growth. Management continues to focus on high-margin recurring revenue products while phasing out non-core, non-recurring offerings. Despite a slight expected revenue drop from this transition, it positions Sangoma for long-term margin expansion, with gross margins targeted at 75–80% by H2 2026. Churn also improved, now just 0.9%. The company is hinting at divestitures, likely of lower-margin hardware assets, and recently completed ERP investments will save $5 million over three years. With strong buybacks, no dilution risk, and competitors weakening, Sangoma appears primed for a multiple rerate.
