Yelp Tops Q1 Expectations as AI Services and Hatch Acquisition Drive Revenue Growth Yelp posted Q1 2026 revenue of $361.5 million, a 1% year-over-year increase that came in about 2% above analyst expectations.
Adjusted EPS was $0.36, topping the $0.26 consensus and producing a 38% earnings surprise.
AI-driven “other revenue” grew 75% year over year, supported by products like Yelp Assistant and Yelp Host and the Hatch acquisition, which reached a more than $34 million annual run rate with 92% growth, while the company reaffirmed its 2026 revenue outlook of about $1.47 billion and adjusted EBITDA guidance of $310 million to $330 million.
The results point to a business that is getting more contribution from newer AI-focused services at a time when traditional local ad revenue is under pressure from weaker conditions for small businesses.
Investors may want to watch how quickly AI and data licensing partnerships, including the OpenAI collaboration, can offset softness in core advertising and what that mix shift means for margins over the rest of 2026. Major Estimate Revision • May 15
