Coursera (NYSE:COUR) reports Q2 earnings and revenue beat, but core revenue concerns persist

Coursera (NYSE:COUR) announced second-quarter adjusted earnings of $0.17 per share, surpassing the consensus estimate of $0.11. Revenue reached approximately $298.6 million, marking a 59.6% year-over-year increase and exceeding some revenue expectations. The company anticipates an adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 14% in 2026 and at least $85 million in annualized run-rate synergies by year-end following its Udemy combination. However, investor concerns about lower second-quarter core revenue and a pullback from enterprise customers led to a selloff, raising questions about the quality and durability of growth.
