HubSpot
HubSpot's revenue rose 19.2% to $3.1 billion in fiscal 2025. Its operating margin was 0.2%, up from −2.6% a year earlier. Free cash flow was $708 million, up 26.2%. It paid out $500 million in dividends and buybacks, 71% of free cash flow. The diluted share count rose 2.6%.
Operating margin is operating income as a share of revenue. Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Return on equity is net income as a share of shareholders' equity. Market cap is the last closing share price times the latest diluted share count, so it is approximate. P/E is the last close divided by diluted earnings per share over the last four quarters, or the latest fiscal year where the quarters aren't available; there is none when the company made a loss.
What HubSpot does
HubSpot sells a software platform that helps marketing, sales and customer service teams manage their relationships with customers. The platform includes a customer relationship management (CRM) system, which holds customer data, and tools for marketing, sales, service, operations, content and commerce. It adds artificial intelligence (AI) agents that do some of this work.
HubSpot focuses on mid-market business-to-business companies, which it defines as companies with between 2 and 2,000 employees. It mainly sells the platform as a subscription. Outside partners resell and set up the software, and the company runs a marketplace of integrations and templates. In 2025 its total revenue was $3.1 billion. It had 288,706 customers in more than 135 countries and 8,882 full-time employees at year-end.
HubSpot is based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was formed in 2005 and became a corporation in 2007.
Its biggest risks, as it describes them
- Customers not renewing subscriptions, or HubSpot not adding enough new ones.
- Competition from large and small software companies.
- Depending on third-party data centers to deliver the platform.
- Needing to keep up with fast-changing technology, including AI.
- Relying on partners that sell and set up its platform for part of its growth.

Revenue and margins
Net income and earnings per share
From fiscal 2024 to 2025, earnings per share grew 855.6% a year and net income 897.8% a year, as new shares raised the share count by 3% and diluted each share's earnings.

Valuation
Two ways to value HubSpot yourself, both starting from its filings: a discounted cash flow model and the price-to-earnings method.
Discounted cash flow (DCF)
A discounted cash flow (DCF) model values a business as the cash it may generate in future, discounted back to today. The starting figures come from HubSpot's 10-K (or, for net cash and shares, its latest 10-Q) and the assumptions are yours: start from one of three example scenarios, then change any figure to see what it implies for a share, and how that compares with the last share price.
The example scenarios need HubSpot's net cash, which its filings' structured data doesn't give for its latest year. You can enter your own figure in the calculator.

How the value changes with two assumptions
Price-to-earnings (P/E) method
Another common way to value a company is to multiply its earnings per share by a price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple: the number of years of today's earnings an investor pays for a share. A higher multiple usually means investors expect earnings to grow. Choose a multiple, for example from similar companies, to see the value it gives.
Value per share on three example scenarios, from HubSpot's earnings per share of $2.81 (over the last four quarters). Each grows earnings for a year at the cash flow scenarios' rates and applies a multiple to next year's earnings: 92.1×, the middle of HubSpot's own P/E today, its peers' median and its sector's median (its peers' median) for the base scenario, 20% less and more for the cautious and optimistic ones. The price is brought back a year at 11%, 10% and 9%. Select one to load it into the calculator. These are the model's arithmetic on those assumptions, not a forecast or a price target.

Piotroski F-score
The F-score counts how many of nine simple tests of profitability, funding and efficiency a company passed in a year (Piotroski, 2000). The more tests passed, the stronger the year: 8 or 9 is strong, 0 to 2 weak. Companies that report no gross profit are scored on the other eight.
