Latest analysis

Updated Aug 5, 2026

Coursera closes Udemy merger, doubles revenue to $298.6M in Q2 2026, but organic growth at 4% and NRR declining to 91% expose integration execution risk.

The Udemy merger, closed May 11, 2026, defines Coursera's Q2 2026: reported revenue of $298.6 million includes $103.8 million from Udemy, while organic Coursera revenue grew just 4% year-over-year, signaling that standalone platform momentum remains modest. Gross margin expanded to 58.1% from 54.9%, driven by lower content cost rates and the platform maintenance fee introduced in January 2026, but $79.8 million of merger, integration, and restructuring charges drove a GAAP net loss of $80.4 million versus $7.8 million a year ago. The $100 million investment in LearnVector, an AI-native learning company founded by Board Chairman Andrew Ng, introduces a material related-party governance risk that the filing acknowledges but which investors will scrutinize closely.
