Transition to Zenvia Customer Cloud moving on as expected, with revenues from these services up 23% YoY

CPaaS revenues still fueling top line

Continued strict expense control

SÃO PAULO, Sept. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Zenvia Inc. (NASDAQ:ZENV), the leading cloud-based CX solution in Latin America empowering companies to craft personal, engaging and fluid experiences throughout the customer journey, today reported its operational and financial metrics for the second quarter of 2025.

Cassio Bobsin, Founder & CEO of ZENVIA, said: "We are happy to report our strategy to focus on Zenvia Customer Cloud is starting to pay off, as the revenues from these services went up 23% YoY. We are seeing strong adoption among new customers joining the platform - and we even saw our SaaS client base go up from Q1 2025. This makes us confident that we will deliver growth of 25 to 30% in the full year 2025 for Zenvia Customer Cloud."

Shay Chor, CFO & IRO of ZENVIA, said: "While we are advancing with the evolution of Zenvia Customer Cloud and executing on the streamlining initiatives as planned, we continue to face a highly volatile market environment, marked by intense competition, especially on the CPaaS, which has weighed on our profitability. Nonetheless, we remain confident that the actions underway, combined with the scaling of our new platform, will drive a gradual recovery, allowing us to return to normalized profitability levels by year-end and create a solid foundation for 2026."

Highlights Q2 2025

Revenues totaled BRL 286 million, up 24% when compared to BRL 231 million in Q2 2024, as a result of CPaaS (+33%) YoY expansion, mostly related to higher SMS volumes with large wholesale clients who have lower margins coupled with newer clients. SaaS revenues, in turn, went up by 3%, mainly driven by Zenvia Customer Cloud, partially offset by the performance of Enterprise clients.
Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit reached BRL 69 million, while Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin landed at 24%. This performance is mainly explained by:

(i) SaaS gross profit increase in the period for the first time since Q2 2024, driven by the 23% increase in Zenvia Customer Cloud revenues which carry higher margins, coupled with a smaller but more profitable client base, including both SMBs and Enterprises.

More than offset by:

(ii) Lower profitability in CPaaS, stemming from strong volume growth with low margins.

As a result of these effects, and despite the 27% YoY reduction in G&A in the period, normalized EBITDA was down 68% from Q2 2024, totaling positive BRL 11 million in the quarter. Please refer to the reconciliation table at the end of this report for more details.

Highlights H1 2025

Revenues totaled BRL 582 million, up 31% when compared to BRL 444 million in H1 2024, as a result of CPaaS (+45%) YoY expansion, mostly due to higher SMS volumes with new and large clients who have lower margins. SaaS revenues went up 4%, mostly from SMB customers, aligned to our strategy of ramping up Zenvia Customer Cloud.
Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit reached BRL 143 million, down 26% YoY, while Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin landed at 25%.
G&A Expenses went down 25% YoY in H1 to BRL 48 million, bringing G&A as a percentage of revenues to 8.3%, down 6.2 percentage points from the 14.5% reported in the same period of 2024. The BRL 16 million G&A reduction YoY in H1 2025 puts us on track to reaching the BRL 30-35 million reduction expected for the year.
As a result of all these effects, normalized EBITDA was positive BRL 31 million in the first half of the year. Please refer to the reconciliation table at the end of this report for more details.

(1) For a reconciliation of the Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit to the Gross Profit of our SaaS business segment, see the Selected Financial Data section below.

(2) We calculate the Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin of our SaaS business segment by dividing its Non-GAAP Gross Profit by its Revenues.

(3) We define an Active Customer as an account (based on a corporate taxpayer registration number) at the end of any period that was the source of any amount of revenue for us in the preceding three months. We classify a customer from which we generated no revenue in the preceding three months as an Inactive Customer.

Our SaaS business is still in a transition phase with the rollout of Zenvia Customer Cloud. Although the ramp-up placed temporary pressure on margins, we anticipate ongoing scaling and better profitability in the coming quarters, with early signs of progress already evident this quarter.

Revenues in our SaaS business went up by 3% YoY in Q2 2025 to BRL 80.6 million from BRL 78.0 million in Q2 2024, primarily driven by Zenvia Customer Cloud. Revenues from Zenvia Customer Cloud solutions increased 23% in the H1 2025 when compared to H1 2024, and are expected to increase even more as our clients deepen the adoption of our solutions. On the rest of our SaaS business, we continue to see a tough competitive environment in the Enterprise segment in Brazil for our SaaS legacy solutions, which have partially offset Zenvia Customer Cloud top line growth. We believe the superior value offered by Zenvia Customer Cloud is key to better position us in this more competitive Enterprise segment, as evidenced by the first dozen projects implemented last quarter that will help improve overall SaaS metrics in the next coming quarters.

Q2 2025 Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit from SaaS was up 5% YoY at BRL 44.7 million, while Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin from SaaS was modestly up 0.9 p.p. to 55.4% as compared to 54.5% in the same period last year.

CPaaS Business

CPaaS Key Operational & Financial Metrics (BRL MM and %)	Q2 2025	Q2 2024	YoY	H1 2025	H1 2024	YoY

(1) For a reconciliation of the Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit to Gross Profit of our CPaaS business segment, see the Selected Financial Data section below.

(2) We calculate the Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin of our CPaaS business segment by dividing its Non-GAAP Gross Profit by its Revenues.(3) We define an active customer as an account (based on a corporate taxpayer registration number) at the end of any period that was the source of any amount of revenue for us in the preceding three months. We classify a customer from which we generated no revenue in the preceding three months as an inactive customer.

While the CPaaS business reported strong volumes and a YoY increase of 33% in Revenues, reaching BRL 205.1 million in Q2 2025, its Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit decreased 58%, leading to a Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin of 11.8%. This lower profitability is explained by (i) continued competitive dynamic for clients with large volumes, and (ii) higher SMS costs resulting from carrier cost adjustments, which are being passed on to clients throughout the year. We expect to see normalized CPaaS margins closer to year-end.

Q2 Consolidated Financial Result Analysis

In the SaaS business, we already could see encouraging signs of results coming from the ramp up of Zenvia Customer Cloud in this quarter. When we compare to the same period last year, revenues from our core business increased by 23% YoY, mainly from SMBs. This performance brought the Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit of the SaaS segment up by 5%, the first positive YoY increase in gross profit since Q2 24.

In the CPaaS business, we recorded once again high volumes leading to a 33% YoY revenue growth, but coming mostly from certain customers that currently have tight margins, which coupled with the higher SMS costs when compared to the same period last year had a negative effect on our gross profit and margins. We expect margins to normalize by year-end. We are confident that the strategy of maintaining clients at tighter margins will pay off in the middle and long term as we do not need to incur additional G&A expenses to manage them.

As a result, our Normalized EBITDA came in below our expectations at positive BRL 11 million in the quarter.

H1 Consolidated Financial Result Analysis

The H1 results are very similar to the Q2 results, with strong expansion in the CPaaS business coming with margin pressure coupled with a solid evolution in Zenvia Customer Cloud driving our SaaS business.

This performance was offset by the YoY decrease of 25% in our G&A expenses in H1 to BRL 48 million, bringing G&A as a percentage of revenues to 8.3%, down 6.2 percentage points from the 14.5% reported in the same period of 2024. This amount already reflects the approximately 15% workforce reduction announced in January, which is expected to generate cost savings of BRL 30 million to BRL 35 million in FY 2025.

As a result, Normalized EBITDA for the first half was positive BRL 31 million. While this performance was below our expectations, we are confident to be in the right direction to accelerate profitability in the second half of the year and create a solid foundation for 2026. Please refer to the reconciliation table for more details.
