Yext (ISIN US98585N1063) said on September 30, 2026 that it signed a definitive agreement to acquire Flamel.ai, while Yext stock was down 1.53 percent at Lang & Schwarz on October 2, 2026. The deal extends Yext's enterprise marketing platform into local paid media, giving the announcement a clear product expansion angle.

Flamel.ai adds paid media

According to Yext on September 30, 2026, the transaction will add paid media alongside search, listings, reviews, webpages and social capabilities. The company said the acquisition is expected to close in the fourth quarter ending January 31, 2027, and will be funded with cash on hand.

The move broadens the platform from managing business information and digital visibility toward helping brands attract customers through localized advertising. That expansion matters because paid media can connect visibility data with measurable customer acquisition, although the company disclosed no purchase price for the transaction.

Revenue falls while earnings rise

Yext's latest reported period was fiscal Q2 2027, ended July 31, 2026. The investor-relations page lists USD 111.10 million revenue, USD 0.21 non-GAAP earnings per share, USD 34.00 million adjusted EBITDA and USD 440.80 million annual recurring revenue for that quarter.

MarketBeat reported that fiscal Q2 2027 earnings per share of USD 0.21 exceeded the USD 0.17 consensus, while revenue of USD 111.10 million declined 1.80 percent year over year. The contrast leaves the acquisition as a test of whether new paid-media functionality can support growth while earnings remain ahead of expectations.

Stock remains below its dollar high

On the NYSE, Yext was last at USD 6.51 on October 2, 2026 at 1:22 p.m. ET. Its 52-week range was USD 3.27 to USD 9.03, and its market capitalization was USD 653.1 million on the same date.

Investing.com lists December 9, 2026 as Yext's next earnings date. The scheduled report will give investors a first recurring checkpoint for the Flamel.ai strategy and for the company's ability to translate its platform expansion into revenue.
