Chegg beats Q2 expectations, pivots to AI-first employability platform

Chegg reported second-quarter results that exceeded management's expectations on both revenue and EBITDA, driven by a sweeping restructuring into an AI-first organization with a leaner cost structure. The company is shifting its core mission from academic support to a comprehensive 'employability' platform, aiming to serve 20 million students from learning to earning. Non-GAAP operating expenses were nearly halved year-over-year, and free cash flow reached $9.5 million in the first half despite $14.4 million in one-time severance payments. Management guided for third-quarter total revenue between $43 million and $44 million and expects to fully repay its convertible debt in the quarter, while targeting a 60% reduction in full-year capital expenditures. Chegg plans a soft launch of its next-generation platform in the third quarter, integrating academic support, skilling, and language learning, and will leverage its 100-million Q&A database and the internships.com domain to drive the new strategy.

Chegg Faces Subscriber Losses and Shrinking Margins, Analysts See Risk

Chegg has been treading water for the past six months, recording a small return of 0.5% while holding steady at $0.96, and the stock fell short of the S&P 500's 9% gain during that period. Analysts highlight three reasons for caution: services subscribers have declined by 23.3% annually over the last two years, EBITDA margin decreased by 12.9 percentage points to 20.3% over the trailing 12 months, and earnings per share dropped by 54.2% annually over the last three years. With shares trading at 3.4 times forward EV/EBITDA, the valuation appears optically cheap but the potential downside is significant given shaky fundamentals. The analysts recommend looking at other opportunities, including what they describe as the most entrenched endpoint security platform on the market.

Chegg Stock Surges 72% in Three Months on Skilling Growth and Margin Gains

Chegg shares have surged 71.8% in the past three months, driven by rapid expansion in its Skilling business and aggressive cost-cutting. The Skilling segment, which targets a $40 billion workforce training market, grew revenues 9% year over year in the first quarter of 2026, with management forecasting double-digit full-year growth. Adjusted operating expenses fell 55% year over year, helping the company post adjusted EBITDA of $15.5 million and positive net income for the first time in two years. Strategic partnerships with Cornerstone and Woolf are broadening distribution, while Chegg expects to fully repay its remaining convertible debt by September 2026. Despite a discounted forward price-to-sales ratio of 0.62, earnings estimates remain weak, with the Zacks Consensus Estimate pointing to a loss of 16 cents per share for both 2026 and 2027.
