VeriSign Posts 10% EPS Gain in Q2
Key Points - GAAP EPS of $2.21 for Q2 2025 beat expectations by $0.01, though GAAP revenue for the quarter slightly missed consensus. - The company initiated its first-ever quarterly dividend at $0.77 per share, diversifying shareholder returns. - The total base of .com and .net domain registrations declined by 0.1% year over year, raising questions about organic growth. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › VeriSign (NASDAQ:VRSN), the leading provider of internet infrastructure services that operates the .com and .net domain name registries, reported its second-quarter results on July 24, 2025. The most notable development was the introduction of its first-ever quarterly dividend, marking a significant step in capital returns. It posted GAAP revenue of $410 million against an analyst estimate of $410.97 million, coming in just below consensus, while GAAP earnings per share of $2.21 edged past the expected $2.20. Operating and net income both improved compared to the year-ago period, reflecting continued strong profitability and robust cash generation. Overall, it delivered steady performance, although incremental domain base declines and a slight revenue miss on a GAAP basis emphasize questions about future growth. Source: Analyst estimates for the quarter provided by FactSet. Company Overview and Key Success Factors VeriSign runs the infrastructure that keeps the .com and .net internet domains online worldwide. Its main business is managing domain name registry databases, ensuring sites resolve reliably whenever anyone types a .com or .net address. It holds long-term contracts with organizations like the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and the U.S. Department of Commerce, which allow it to operate these domains under strict reliability and pricing regimes. The business relies heavily on widespread trust in its operational excellence, reflected in nearly three decades without downtime in its core services. Critical business drivers include contract renewals, rigorous operational security, a strong competitive position in core registries, and the ability to innovate to protect and grow its franchise. Regulatory compliance and targeted investment in research and development are also essential, especially as digital infrastructure faces evolving cyber threats and shifting international rules. Second Quarter Performance: Results and Drivers VeriSign reported operating income of $281 million and net income of $207 million, both higher than the same quarter in 2024. Operating income rose to $281 million. Net income (GAAP) also improved from the prior year. Cash flow from operations (GAAP) was $202 million, compared to $160 million for Q2 2024. This operational strength allowed it to repurchase 0.6 million shares for $163 million, and boost its total buyback authorization to $1.5 billion. The company made a notable move by launching its first quarterly dividend, set at $0.77 per share. This step signals confidence in the durability of cash flows and expands the mix of capital returns to shareholders. Previously, all cash returned had come through share repurchases. The initiation of a recurring payout further diversifies this approach. Looking at business activity, the domain name base for .com and .net finished at 170.5 million, a slim decrease of 0.1% from a year earlier. While that drop shows modest contraction, new domain registrations grew to 10.4 million, up from 9.2 million in Q2 2024, the renewal rate also improved by 1.2 percentage points compared to Q1 2024. Despite the stronger registration and renewal numbers, deletions and expirations meant that the total number of active registered .com and .net domains fell just slightly over the last twelve months, with a 0.1% decrease year over year. Research and development expense (GAAP) was $25.7 million, compared to $23.8 million for Q2 2024. Operational reliability remained immaculate, with the company noting 28 years of uninterrupted availability on .com and .net, which distinguishes it in the infrastructure space. Deferred revenues increased to $1.38 billion, while cash and investments at $594 million reflected robust liquidity even after shareholder returns and recent debt repayment activity. Forward Outlook and Guidance VeriSign did not provide updated guidance for the full year with this earnings release. Guidance shared previously had targeted 2025 GAAP revenue between $1.635 billion and $1.650 billion. For upcoming quarters, investors should monitor the trend in the total domain name base. A shrinking or flat registration base could weigh on long-term growth prospects if it continues. The company's ability to secure contract renewals with ICANN and the U.S. Department of Commerce will remain pivotal. Any additional regulatory developments or notable security events could also have material impacts on results. NASDAQ:VRSN does pay a dividend, with the first quarterly payment of $0.77 per share declared. Revenue and net income presented using U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) unless otherwise noted.

CareCloud Announces Preferred Stock Dividend Payments
SOMERSET, N.J., July 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CareCloud, Inc. (the 'Company') (Nasdaq: CCLD, CCLDO), a leader in healthcare technology and generative AI solutions for medical practices and health systems nationwide, announced today that its Board of Directors (the 'Board') has declared monthly cash dividends for its 8.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock ('Series A Preferred Stock') and its 8.75% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock ('Series B Preferred Stock') for July, August and September 2025. The following table shows the monthly dividends and associated record and payment dates: July 2025 August 2025 September 2025 Series A dividend per share $ 0.18229 $ 0.18229 $ 0.18229 Series A additional payment per share $ 0.04688 $ 0.04688 $ 0.04688 Series B dividend per share $ 0.18229 $ 0.18229 $ 0.18229 Ex-dividend date July 31, 2025 August 31, 2025 September 30, 2025 Record date July 31, 2025 August 31, 2025 September 30, 2025 Payment date August 15, 2025 September 15, 2025 October 15, 2025 Holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock as of the record date are entitled to receive cumulative cash dividends at the rate of 8.75% per annum of the $25.00 per share liquidation preference (equivalent to $2.1875 per annum per share). Additionally, since this payment will be credited against the oldest dividend due (at which point in time, the cash dividend rate was 11% per annum), the Board authorized an additional payment equal to 2.25% per share of Series A Preferred Stock. For clarity, previous holders of Series A Preferred Stock that were converted on March 6, 2025, already received dividends paid in shares up and through March 6, 2025, and will not receive either the dividend payment or the additional payment per share. Holders of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock as of the record date are entitled to receive cumulative cash dividends at the rate of 8.75% per annum of the $25.00 per share liquidation preference (equivalent to $2.1875 per annum per share). Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock are cumulative and payable monthly on the 15 th day of each month; provided that if any dividend payment date is not a business day, then the dividend may be paid on the next succeeding business day. Dividends are payable to holders of record on the applicable record date, which is the last day of the calendar month, whether or not a business day. About CCLDP Due to the mandatory conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into common stock on March 6, 2025, the Company delisted its Series A Preferred Stock from the Nasdaq Global Market since the security no longer complies with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements. The Company may, at its option, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice, redeem additional shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption. About CCLDO CareCloud's Series B Preferred Stock trades on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol 'CCLDO.' The Company may, at its option, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice, redeem the Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, for cash at redemption prices of either $25.50 per share (for redemptions on and after February 15, 2025 and prior to February 15, 2026), $25.25 per share (for redemptions on and after February 15, 2026 and prior to February 15, 2027), or $25.00 per share (for redemptions on and after February 25, 2027), plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption.
