↑ 3%BILL reported Q2 revenue of $436.2 million, up 13.8% year-on-year and ahead of analyst estimates. However, Q3 revenue guidance of $437.5 million came in 1.4% below expectations. The financial automation platform highlighted strong adoption of AI-driven features, with over 175,000 businesses now using BILL's AI agents. The company underwent significant organisational restructuring, including leadership changes and a shift towards targeting higher-value, multi-product customers. Adjusted earnings per share of $0.84 beat analyst estimates by 18.5%. Operating margin fell to -7.9% from -5.8% in the prior year period, whilst customer count declined to 479,300. Management expects near-term revenue growth to be impacted by the new sales structure and headwinds in card acceptance, but anticipates improved profitability as organisational changes mature and AI product adoption increases.
BILL forecasts FY 2027 non-GAAP EPS of $3.56-$3.79 while targeting meaningful GAAP profitability. Earnings Call Insights: BILL Holdings (BILL) Q4 fiscal 2026 Management view. * "Q4 was one of the most significant quarters in the history of BILL," said Founder, CEO & Chairperson of the Board René Lacerte, adding, "We completed the significant organizational changes required to accelerate our transformation to be an AI-native company." He highlighted Q4 performance, saying, "Core revenue grew 16% year-over-year, while our non-GAAP operating margin exceeded 23%." * CEO Lacerte detailed AI adoption and workflow automation, including, "To date, we have had over 175,000 businesses using our agents," and, "The number of organizations using our W-9 agents more than tripled sequentially to over 40,000." He also said the invoice coding agent "has already been used by over 60,000 companies," and the touchless transactions agent "has automated more than 7 million transaction fields for 30,000 customers." * CEO Lacerte tied AI to credit performance, saying, "We are seeing a material impact on our invoice financing business," and reported, "Both volume and revenue grew approximately 30% year-over-year in FY '26, while the expected loss rate has improved by more than 50%." * CEO Lacerte described management and structural changes, stating, "We significantly simplified and reduced layers across the entire company," and, "We moved from a hybrid general manager structure to a functional model." He added, "I was pleased to welcome Jonathan Leaf to BILL as our new Chief Revenue Officer," "Mike Cherry... has been promoted to Chief Product Officer," and "Eric Chan has been appointed Chief Technology Officer." * Chief Financial Officer Rohini Jain framed longer-term targets, saying, "We are well positioned to deliver low double-digit to mid-teens core revenue growth with expanding margins over time," and, "We expect to exceed this threshold exiting FY '27," referring to Rule of 40 as defined by BILL. Outlook. * The company said it is taking a more cautious near-term posture: CFO Jain stated, "Given these aspects, we believe a measure of prudence is appropriate in our forward outlook," citing go-to-market change, Spend & Expense card-acceptance dynamics, and consolidation of Embed to "a scalable and standardized embedded platform." * CFO Jain guided fiscal Q1 '27 total revenue to "$432.5 million to $442.5 million" and core revenue to "$398 million to $408 million," and said, "We expect non-GAAP EPS to be between $0.96 and $1." * For fiscal year 2027, CFO Jain guided total revenue to "$1.807 billion to $1.857 billion" and core revenue to "$1.669 billion to $1.719 billion," and said, "We expect non-GAAP EPS to be between $3.56 to $3.79." She also flagged seasonality: "Q2 FY '27 faces our highest prior year comparison, and we expect this to represent the trough of our growth trajectory for the year." * CFO Jain announced a reporting change: "Beginning in Q1 of fiscal year 2027, we will present revenue net of rewards expense," adding, "The change has no impact on the operating income or net income." Financial results. * CFO Jain reported Q4 core revenue of "$400.5 million," non-GAAP operating margin of "23%," and non-GAAP net income of "$94 million," adding, "The large profitability beat this quarter was driven by earlier-than-planned workforce reduction timing and lower fraud and credit losses." * She said Q4 net new customers were "approximately 1,800," and attributed the decline to "our decision to deliberately prioritize signing the right customers for BILL" and restructuring execution, including, "We decided to exit salespeople earlier than originally planned." * On platform KPIs, CEO Lacerte reported, "In Q4, the number of joint customers leveraging both of our AP and Spend and Expense solutions grew 35% year-over-year," and added, "Those who were customers both in Q4 and a year ago exhibited a net revenue retention of 111%." * On capital return, CFO Jain stated, "In the fourth quarter, we repurchased approximately $300 million of stock at an average price of $35.31 per share," and added, "As of today, we have $400 million remaining on our $1 billion repurchase authorization." Q&a. * Tien-Tsin Huang, JPMorgan: asked where restructuring landed vs. prior targets; Chief Financial Officer Jain replied, "We had given you an initial estimate of about $110 million of gross savings. We came very, very close to that number," and, "We are right now anchoring those investments on the number $30 million... our net benefit... at around $80 million." * Scott Berg, Needham: asked about AI monetization; CEO Lacerte answered, "We will be inclined to move customers from a per seat basis to really a platform fee... as well as a usage consumption fee," and, "Agents will be grouped into different subscription tiers." * Christopher Quintero, Morgan Stanley: asked about AP/AR TPV upside and subscription acceleration; CFO Jain said, "We saw majority of the uptick" from ACH, and noted mid-market customers have "lower take rates... but they're extremely valuable customers," adding, "Their ARPU is 3x more... Their TPV is 4x more." * William Nance, Goldman Sachs: asked about take rate drivers and rewards reporting; CFO Jain said, "We don't see that on the AP/AR side," and on the rewards change, "We will give periodic color to the performance of rewards as well." * Andrew Schmidt, KeyBanc: pressed on FY '27 growth headwinds and net adds; CFO Jain said the sales unification creates "training... ramping... incentive changing," and added, "In July, we started to see some green shoots," while reiterating a focus on ICP trade-offs. * Kenneth Suchoski, Autonomous: asked about Spend & Expense card acceptance; CFO Jain said, "That's what we're referring to," and described it as "quite concentrated in the small number of customers that have large volume." Sentiment analysis. * Analysts tone was slightly positive in results-focused questions but repeatedly probed execution risk, centering on restructuring realization, take-rate durability, and Spend & Expense acceptance headwinds, including "card acceptance that's impacting volume growth." * Management tone was confident in strategy and disciplined on near-term caveats, with CEO Lacerte stating, "We are making a strategic pivot to an agentic platform," while CFO Jain emphasized, "a measure of prudence is appropriate in our forward outlook." * Versus last quarter, management language shifted from announcing major restructuring ("By the end of Q4, we will reduce the workforce by up to 30%") to confirming completion and quantifying savings, while analysts shifted from risk-of-restructuring questions to detailed monitoring of growth headwinds and reporting changes. Quarter-over-quarter comparison. * Q4 emphasized completion of reorganization and named leadership appointments, whereas Q3 centered on announcing a workforce reduction "by up to 30%" and expanding the buyback authorization to "$1 billion in aggregate." * Q4 introduced a revenue presentation change ("revenue net of rewards expense") and a tighter go-to-market focus ("sell BILL as a single platform"), while Q3 positioned AI as moving from "one priority among 3" to "our #1 priority." * Analyst focus moved from "what are the risks in doing this" (Q3 restructuring) toward near-term growth mechanics (ACH mix, take rates, rewards, and card acceptance) and the path to Rule of 40 under the new reporting framework. Risks and concerns. * CFO Jain cited operational and market variables affecting near-term execution: "first quarter of a new sales motion under new leadership," "a dynamic environment regarding card acceptance," and a deliberate Embed shift "moving away from custom 1.0 solutions we built for a small number of bank partners," adding, "We do not expect that every existing bank channel relationship will carry forward." * CEO Lacerte acknowledged product rollout friction in Supplier Payments Plus, stating, "The early progress has not met our initial expectations," and described mitigation as building the enterprise motion, adding, "we are now starting to see increased deal momentum and faster implementations." Final takeaway. Management described Q4 as a turning point marked by a completed reorganization, a shift to selling a unified platform, and deeper commitment to an "AI-native" and "agentic" product direction, while guiding FY 2027 for core revenue growth and higher profitability, including non-GAAP EPS of $3.56 to $3.79 and "well over $125 million" of GAAP profits, alongside continued execution of the remaining $400 million buyback authorization.

Learn more about some significant updates to the BILL + Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central integration. BILL + Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central integration just got better. Melissa Ginder VP of Product Management Table of contents Get more from BILL August 20, 2026 Managing AP, purchasing, and multi-entity accounting across disconnected systems is exhausting. Data gets re-entered. Receipts go missing. Reconciliation takes days longer than it should. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone (and Bill.com, LLC. heard you!) Today Bill.com, LLC. is sharing a significant update to the BILL + Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central integration. What's changed isn't just a list of new features. It's the foundation of a more connected financial operations experience, built around the complexity that actually comes with running a growing business. Here's what's new. Your bills and their paperwork travel together now. Supporting documents now sync alongside AP bills between BILL and Business Central. The context your team needs (the invoice, the backup, the approval) stays attached to the transaction. No more chasing down documents after the fact. Receipts actually show up in Business Central. Card-transaction receipts from BILL Spend & Expense now sync directly into Business Central. Finance teams get better visibility across the expense workflow, and source documentation stays connected to the activity that generated it. Month-end close just got faster. Payments can now post directly to the Business Central bank register. For a typical mid-market team processing 100-250 payments a month, that could mean getting up to 5 to 15+ hours a month back. Your team can stop spending the last week of every month cross-referencing payment activity by hand. Purchasing as part of the workflow (Beta). Purchase orders now sync inbound from Business Central into BILL, where they can be converted to AP bills. Bill.com, LLC. is rolling out 2-way and 3-way PO matching in beta to all customers, which means purchasing and accounts payable can now work together in one connected workflow. Multi-entity AP (Beta). AP transactions now support entity mapping through the Binary Streams Multi-Entity Management add-on for Business Central, so organizations managing multiple entities can maintain accurate accounting and reporting across all of them. No more manual journal entries in Business Central to keep entities in sync. And for many teams, that could mean they are saving 8 to 10 hours each month. More to come, get started today. Bill.com, LLC. is continuing to build more capabilities that Bill.com, LLC. is excited to share soon! Already using the BILL + Business Central integration? Reach out to your account team to enable these new capabilities. Melissa Ginder VP of Product Management
BILL, a financial automation platform for small and midsize businesses, reported Q2 CY2026 revenue of $436.2 million, exceeding analyst estimates by 1.4% and marking 13.8% year-on-year growth. The company's non-GAAP profit of $0.84 per share beat consensus estimates by 18.5%. However, BILL's revenue guidance for Q3 of $437.5 million fell 1.4% below analyst expectations. The company's customer base declined to 479,300 from 493,800 in the previous quarter. Despite strong historical growth of 47.3% compounded annually over five years, BILL's recent performance shows slowing momentum. Its annualised revenue growth over the past two years reached only 13.2%, well below its five-year trend. Analysts project 11.9% revenue growth over the next 12 months.
New at BILL: april-june 2026. Table of contents Get more from BILL July 9, 2026 Bill.com, LLC. started building BILL AI agents with one promise: not to make your finance team's work faster - but to make it disappear. This quarter, that promise got a lot more real. Here's what Bill.com, LLC. has been shipping. Agents keep getting smarter. W-9 Agent: the whole workflow is now autonomous. When Bill.com, LLC. launched the W-9 Agent, it eliminated over 80% of the steps* involved in collecting and validating W-9s - automatically emailing vendors, following up, and validating TINs. Accounting firms like Hiline called it a year-end game changer: no more scrambling for missing forms, no more December fire drills. Bill.com, LLC. kept pushing. The W-9 Agent is now on by default. No setup required - the moment a new vendor is added, the agent starts working. Bill.com, LLC. has also added auto-approval: when the agent validates W-9 information with high confidence, it approves it automatically. The full workflow - request, collect, validate, approve - is now autonomous. End to end. "The difference is felt most at year-end when chaos and fire drills around W-9s are replaced by proactive, seamless resolution." - Eric Cohen, CPA, Head of Technology, Hiline Transaction Agent: now available for every Spend & Expense customer. From the moment a card is swiped, the Transaction Agent captures receipts automatically via Gmail, Lyft, and other integrations. When a receipt is missing, it generates one. It then codes every transaction field using merchant data, your company's coding history, and receipt details - and gets more accurate the more your team uses it. By the time you look at a transaction, the work is already done. You stay in control: choose which fields to automate, override anything at any time, and see every AI action in a full audit trail. Included with BILL Spend & Expense at no additional cost. Enabled by default. "Between the Gmail integration, auto-matching, and auto-coding, it's truly a one-stop shop. I have a screen recording of me submitting a receipt and it takes me seconds." - Krystal Thompson, Senior Software Solutions Advisor, Advisors for Change** Invoice Coding Agent: the hours keep compounding. Since launching in February, the Invoice Coding Agent has been stacking time savings across its AP customer base - cutting multi-line invoice coding steps by up to 89%*** and slashing processing time nearly in half.**** At Ledgerly Consulting, AI-driven workflows reduced reconciliation time by 60% and freed capacity equivalent to more than half a full-time employee - now reinvested in strategy and client advisory. Smart Response Agent: 8.5 hours a week. Reclaimed. The average AP team spends 8.5 hours every week answering the same questions: payment status, outstanding bills, account reconciliation. At midsize companies, that climbs to 15.3 hours - nearly two full business days - on work that shouldn't require a human. The Smart Response Agent automatically drafts responses to routine vendor inquiries. Now in closed beta with over 500 organizations, with improved vendor search and better response quality built in since the alpha. Some teams are reclaiming nearly three full days a month. "BILL's Smart Response Agent has transformed how we reconcile vendor statements across our 35 companies. What used to take hours of manual invoice matching now takes 30 minutes - the AI automatically reviews each invoice's status and returns a detailed breakdown of what's paid, what's outstanding, and what's missing. That's capacity our team can redirect toward the work that actually moves the business forward." - Kayte Moran, Director of Accounts Payable at Ignite Medical Resorts The rest of the platform is moving too. Bill.com, LLC. is building BILL to cover the full arc of how finance actually works: setting guardrails before money moves, making spend seamless in the moment, and getting cash back into the business faster. Here's how Bill.com, LLC. delivered on that promise this quarter: Travel that manages itself. Business travel is one of the last high-friction workflows in finance - employees book in one tool, receipts live somewhere else, and finance finds out about it at month-end. BILL Travel closes that loop. You can now book in-policy flights and hotels without leaving BILL Spend & Expense - across 500+ airlines and 1.5M hotels. Charges hit BILL cards automatically, receipts attach from booking confirmations, and everything ties back to your budgets and reporting in real time. Travel workflows are cut by more than 85%, saving its customers an estimated 105,000+ hours every month. No booking fees. No inventory markups. Control spend before it happens. Smart financial operations start upstream - before any money moves. This quarter, Bill.com, LLC. made it easier to set guardrails and actually stick to them. BILL Procurement now syncs purchase orders with QuickBooks Online bidirectionally. When an invoice arrives, BILL matches it to the authorized PO automatically - so you only pay for what was approved. No manual reconciliation. No paying for things that weren't sanctioned. Eligible customers can try it free for two pay cycles. Bill.com, LLC. also redesigned how spend policies work in BILL Spend & Expense. Approvals, receipt rules, and spend limits now live in their own dedicated spaces instead of being bundled together. The result: faster to navigate, faster to update, and less likely to have the wrong rule apply in the wrong situation. Get paid faster. Stay in sync. Cash flow works in both directions, and Bill.com, LLC. improved both this quarter. New Payment Links let you send a secure payment URL by email or text - customers pay via ACH or credit card without needing a new invoice. Paired with expanded AR API automation and real-time webhooks, it's meaningfully easier to accelerate receivables. And for high-growth teams using Rillet's AI-native ERP: BILL and your general ledger can now stay in continuous sync - no manual exports, no month-end reconciliation scramble. It's a step toward a zero-day close, and a sign of where the whole category is heading. More control, fewer clicks. More to come. At BILL, everything Bill.com, LLC. build is in service of the same mission: giving the Fortune 5 Million - the small and midsize businesses that power its economy - the financial horsepower of a Fortune 500 company. Its Q4 updates are another step in that direction. [* Based on BILL's analysis of a typical 12-step W-9 collection process.
