SANTA CLARA, Calif. ‑ October 29, 2025ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW), the AI platform for business transformation, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2025, with subscription revenues of $3,299 million in Q3 2025, representing 21.5% year‑over‑year growth and 20.5% in constant currency.

“This outstanding Q3 performance is the clearest demonstration yet that ServiceNow is the AI platform for business transformation,” said ServiceNow Chairman and CEO Bill McDermott. “Every enterprise in every industry is focused on AI as the innovation opportunity of our generation. Leaders work with ServiceNow because they trust this proven platform as the core of their technology estate for decades to come. From autonomous workflows to AI‑driven CRM, ServiceNow is putting AI to work for people, driving massive value creation for customers and shareholders.”

As of September 30, 2025, current remaining performance obligations (“cRPO”), contract revenue that will be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months, was $11.35 billion, representing 21% year‑over‑year growth and 20.5% in constant currency. The company had 103 transactions over $1 million in net new annual contract value (“ACV”) in Q3, and ended the quarter with 553 customers with more than $5 million in ACV, representing 18% year‑over‑year growth. 

“Q3 was an exceptional quarter, with standout performances across the board,” said ServiceNow President and CFO Gina Mastantuono. “Now Assist, U.S. Federal, Workflow Data Fabric, and RaptorDB were all ahead of plan. These results underscore the power of the ServiceNow AI Platform and our multiple growth vectors, from core workflow expansion to the accelerating adoption of our innovative new products. Massive platform demand, combined with AI‑driven efficiencies, not only fueled fantastic results but also reinforced our ability to scale with accelerating margin expansion.”

ServiceNow today announced that its Board of Directors approved a five‑for‑one split of the 회사’s common stock. The stock split is subject to shareholder approval, which the 회사 will seek at a Special Meeting of Shareholders scheduled to take place on December 5, 2025.

Recent Business Highlights

Innovation

  • In Q3, ServiceNow unveiled AI Experience, the new user interface (UI) for enterprise AI. The context‑aware, multimodal environment unites people, data, and workflows with built‑in governance and security. Redefining the traditional UI, AI Experience serves as the intelligent entry point for employees to access information, delegate tasks, and collaborate with AI.
  • With the Zurich platform release, announced in September, ServiceNow delivered breakthrough innovations that accelerate multi‑agentic development and bring secure, scalable AI systems into production. The company introduced new developer tools enabling secure vibe coding with natural language to lower the barrier to application creation; built‑in capabilities such as ServiceNow Vault Console and Machine Identity Console to secure sensitive data and govern integrations; and autonomous workflows powered by agentic playbooks that blend AI and human input where and when it's needed for greater control and efficiency.

Global and Industry Expansion

  • ServiceNow announced a new regional innovation hub and AI Institute in West Palm Beach, Florida, to drive AI innovation, talent development, and economic growth. This initiative is projected to create more than 850 new jobs and deliver $1.8 billion in economic impact over the next five years.
  • ServiceNow and SENAI‑SP, Latin America’s largest professional education institution, launched a statewide AI skills program to equip Brazilians with technical skills in AI, workflow automation, and low‑code development. Included within ServiceNow University, the program offers trainings and certification pathways to build an AI‑ready workforce.
  • ServiceNow was named the Official Workflow Partner of the DFL Deutsche Fußball Liga (Bundesliga). Powered by the ServiceNow AI Platform, the league is modernizing its operations to improve employee satisfaction, collaboration with clubs and partners, and fan engagement across the league ecosystem.

Partnerships

  • ServiceNow and the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) announced a landmark OneGov agreement to power AI‑first modernization for a new era of government. The partnership offers a simplified licensing model to reduce complexity, drive cost savings, and enable easier adoption of the ServiceNow AI Platform, helping agencies accelerate workflow efficiencies and agentic AI transformation.
  • In Q4, ServiceNow and NVIDIA deepened their longstanding partnership, introducing Apriel 2.0, a next‑generation AI model with advanced reasoning and multimodal capabilities in a faster, smaller, more efficient footprint. Additionally, ServiceNow will integrate with NVIDIA AI Factory reference architectures to deliver out‑of‑the box AI agents and workflow solutions, helping organizations enhance security and customer experiences in sectors such as retail, government, and data center management.
  • Today, ServiceNow and FedEx Dataworks announced their collaboration to build AI‑powered supply chain workflows that combine FedEx Dataworks’ global logistics intelligence with the ServiceNow AI Platform’s automation and workflow capabilities. To start, FedEx Dataworks will integrate with ServiceNow procurement solutions, using actionable data to deliver real‑time visibility into supply chain health and performance.

Investment

  • Today, ServiceNow announced an investment in Zaelab to accelerate CRM and AI‑driven modernization for manufacturing and technology customers. The collaboration will deliver joint solutions for enhanced CPQ and digital commerce capabilities, while simultaneously allowing Zaelab to expand its CRM practice by adding 350 certified professionals to deliver ServiceNow offerings that solve customers’ CRM needs.
  • In September, ServiceNow closed on its $750 million investment in Genesys, a global leader in AI‑Powered Experience Orchestration, building on the companies’ global partnership to elevate customer and employee experiences.
  • In Q3, ServiceNow repurchased approximately 644,000 shares of its common stock for $584 million as part of its share repurchase program1, with the primary objective of managing the impact of dilution. Approximately $2 billion remains available for share repurchases under the program.

Recognition

    1The program does not have a fixed expiration date, may be suspended, or discontinued at any time, and does not obligate ServiceNow to acquire any amount of its common stock. The timing, manner, price, and amount of any repurchases will be determined by ServiceNow at its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including business, economic and market conditions, prevailing stock prices, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other considerations.

U.S. Federal agencies are currently navigating changes, from tightening budgets to evolving mission demands. The recent government shutdown may also impact deal timing in the near‑term. These dynamics have been reflected in our Q4 2025 guidance.

Statement Regarding Use of Non‑GAAP Financial Measures

We use the following non‑GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. 

  • Revenues. We adjust revenues and related growth rates for constant currency to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations and any gains or losses from foreign currency hedge contracts that are reported in the current and comparative period. To exclude the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than U.S. Dollars (“USD”) are converted into USD at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparison period (for Q3 2024, the average exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.91 Euros and 1 USD to 0.77 British Pound Sterling (“GBP”)), rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current period (for Q3 2025, the average exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.86 Euros and 1 USD to 0.74 GBP). Guidance for related growth rates is derived by applying the average exchange rates in effect during the comparison period, rather than the exchange rates for the guidance period, adjusted for any foreign currency hedging effects. We believe the presentation of revenues and related growth rates adjusted for constant currency facilitates the comparison of revenues year‑over‑year. 
  • Remaining performance obligations and current remaining performance obligations. We adjust cRPO and remaining performance obligations (“RPO”) and related growth rates for constant currency to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed. To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than USD are converted into USD at the exchange rates in effect at the end of the comparison period (for Q3 2024, the end of the period exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.90 Euros and 1 USD to 0.75 GBP), rather than the actual end of the period exchange rates in effect during the current period (for Q3 2025, the end of the period exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.85 Euros and 1 USD to 0.74 GBP). Guidance for the related growth rate is derived by applying the end of period exchange rates in effect during the comparison period rather than the exchange rates in effect during the guidance period. We believe the presentation of cRPO and RPO and related growth rates adjusted for constant currency facilitates the comparison of cRPO and RPO year‑over‑year, respectively.
  • Gross profit, Income from operations, Net income and Net income per share ‑ diluted. Our non‑GAAP presentation of gross profit, income from operations, and net income measures exclude certain non‑cash or non‑recurring items, including stock‑based compensation expense, amortization of purchased intangibles, legal settlements, business combination and other related costs including compensation expense, impairment of assets, severance costs, and income tax effects and adjustments. We believe these adjustments provide useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of our operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods.
  • Free cash flow. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities plus cash outflows for legal settlements and business combination and other related costs including compensation expense, reduced by purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow margin is calculated as free cash flow as a percentage of total revenues. We believe information regarding free cash flow and free cash flow margin provides useful information to investors because it is an indicator of the strength and performance of our business operations.

Our presentation of non‑GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. We encourage investors to carefully consider our results under GAAP, as well as our supplemental non‑GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand our business. Please see the tables included at the end of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP and non‑GAAP results for gross profit, income from operations, net income, net income per share, and free cash flow.
