VeriSign Posts 10% EPS Gain in Q2

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.
