Progress Software Q2: Overall Performance Is Lacking

  • Progress Software's Q2 results were driven by the ShareFile acquisition, masking lackluster organic growth and highlighting the early stage of its SaaS pivot. The company's financial position is stable, with manageable debt and improved operating margins, but organic growth remains weak outside of SaaS. Management raised 2025 guidance and is pursuing further M&A, including the Nuclia acquisition, to accelerate its SaaS and AI-driven transition.
