Summary
Pinterest posted 18% Q2 revenue growth, 11% more monthly active users at 640 million, and adjusted EPS up 30% to $0.43, beating consensus even as the stock slipped on its outlook.
Q3 guidance called for revenue of $1.19 billion to $1.21 billion, up 13% to 15%, a range investors viewed as cautious despite matching analyst estimates and Pinterest’s recent pattern of conservative forecasts.
Ad impressions rose 16% and ad prices edged up 1%, while adjusted EBITDA increased 24% to $311.3 million; U.S. and Canada revenue climbed 18% to $800 million and rest-of-world revenue jumped 38% to $87 million.
The user base expansion was led by rest-of-world MAUs, up 15% to 377 million, while global ARPU rose 7% to $1.86 and U.S.-Canada ARPU gained 14% to $8.30.
With the shares down about 10% in 2026 and 40% over the past year, the results reinforce the debate over whether Pinterest’s steady mid-teens growth and improving ad tools are being undervalued.
