Yext, Inc. signed a definitive agreement to acquire Flamel.ai on September 30, 2026, adding local paid media to its agentic marketing platform, while Yext stock trades on the NYSE, according to Business Wire. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2027, which ends January 31, 2027.

Paid media joins Scout

Flamel.ai helps multi-location brands run localized paid campaigns across Google, Meta and ChatGPT. Yext said the acquisition would connect those campaigns with Scout data covering search, listings, reviews, webpages and social channels, according to Business Wire.

Yext plans to fund the acquisition with cash on hand, and the closing remains subject to customary conditions. The deal therefore expands the product footprint before it adds a separately quantified revenue contribution.

Revenue declined while margins improved

For the second quarter of fiscal 2027, Yext reported revenue of USD 111.1 million, down from USD 113.1 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2026. The company reported adjusted EBITDA of USD 34.0 million and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 31 percent, according to Business Wire.

Annual recurring revenue stood at USD 440.8 million at July 31, 2026, compared with USD 444.4 million a year earlier. The comparison shows the central investor tension: profitability improved, but recurring revenue was still lower year over year.

Analysts remain cautious

B. Riley Financial raised its Yext price target from USD 5.00 to USD 7.00 while maintaining a neutral rating in a report dated September 2, 2026, as MarketBeat reported. The same report cited a consensus rating of Reduce from six brokerages and an average target of USD 6.33.

The acquisition gives Yext a concrete route into paid media execution, but the latest operating comparison still points to the need for renewed growth in revenue and ARR. That balance makes the fourth-quarter fiscal 2027 closing window an important test for the strategy.

Yext market value on September 30

Yext had a market capitalization of USD 648.6 million as of September 30, 2026. Its 52-week range was USD 3.27 to USD 9.03, giving investors a dated valuation frame while the Flamel.ai transaction moves toward its expected closing window.
