Freshworks (FRSH) reports Q3: everything you need to know ahead of earnings

What happened

Freshworks is scheduled to report its third-quarter earnings after the market closes on Tuesday. Analysts expect revenue growth of 13.9% year over year, slower than the 15.3% growth in the same quarter last year. In the previous quarter, revenue rose 16% to $237.4 million, beating analysts’ expectations.

Confirmed

Global impact / market context

The expected slowdown puts reported sales growth at the center of the update: weaker growth could challenge expectations for future revenue, while a stronger result could support them. Freshworks’ prior revenue beat and enterprise customer additions provide context, but this article does not establish how the stock will respond.

Analyst inference

Analysts generally reaffirmed their estimates during the 30 days before the report, suggesting limited change in their forecasts. The article also cites results from software peers, including DoubleVerify’s 9% revenue growth and a 1.1% beat, as clues—not direct evidence—about Freshworks.

Confirmed

What to watch

1. Check Freshworks’ reported third-quarter revenue against the 13.9% year-over-year growth analysts expect; the result will show whether the projected slowdown is accurate. Confirmed
2. Compare any updated outlook with the prior quarter, when full-year earnings-per-share guidance exceeded analysts’ expectations; the article gives no new guidance figures. Confirmed
3. Watch whether Freshworks continues adding larger customers, after 268 customers paying over $5,000 annually joined last quarter; sustained additions could support future sales. Analyst inference
