AI Insight: LZ Financial Trends
LZ revenue hit a new high of $207M in Q1 2026, but operating income collapsed to $3M — the weakest margin in four quarters.
• Revenue grew 13% year-over-year from $183M in Q1 2025 to $207M in Q1 2026, the strongest quarter in the dataset.
• Operating income fell sharply from $13M in Q4 2025 to $3M in Q1 2026, reversing a recovery that began in Q3 2025.
• Operating cash flow remained resilient at $47M in Q1 2026, up from $27M in Q2 2024, suggesting cash conversion holds despite thin GAAP income.
• Equity declined from $202M in Q3 2025 to $147M in Q1 2026, a $55M contraction over two quarters.
⚠ Operating margin compressed to near zero in Q1 2026 despite record revenue — cost structure warrants close scrutiny next quarter.
⚠ Equity erosion of $55M since Q3 2025 peak with no debt data available makes balance sheet health difficult to fully assess.
⚠ Net income was effectively $0 in Q2 2025 and just $1M in Q1 2026 — profitability consistency remains elusive.
AI Insight: LZ Ratio Trends
LegalZoom's profitability remains volatile and seasonally compressed, with Q1 2026 ROIC collapsing to 7.5% from 29.4% in Q4 2025.
• Operating margin swung from -1.6% in Q2 2025 to 6.6% in Q4 2025, then fell sharply to 1.3% in Q1 2026, signaling high seasonal volatility.
• ROIC dropped from 29.4% in Q4 2025 to 7.5% in Q1 2026, matching the weak Q2 2024 level of 7.5%.
• TTM operating margin of 2.4% and ROA of 2.3% reflect modest but positive full-cycle profitability across the trailing four quarters.
⚠ Q1 is consistently the weakest quarter — Q1 2025 OpMargin was 4.9% vs. Q1 2026's 1.3%, suggesting further sequential deterioration year-over-year.
⚠ D/E data is absent across all periods; leverage visibility is zero, making balance-sheet risk impossible to assess.
⚠ Q3 2024's outsized ROE of 73.5% and ROA of 12.7% appear anomalous — watch whether Q3 2026 normalizes or repeats any one-off benefit.
