Roadzen Addresses Inaccurate Reporting of Analyst Expectations in Q1 FY2026 Results

Recent media reports, originating from an AI-generated article on The Motley Fool and widely syndicated, misstated Roadzen’s analyst expectations as over $21 million in Q1 revenue, implying a revenue miss of more than 50%. Roadzen clarifies that these figures were never issued by its covering analysts, and that its record first quarter — the strongest Q1 in Company history — was in line with its operating plan and market estimates.

NEW YORK, Aug. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Roadzen Inc. (Nasdaq: RDZN) ("Roadzen" or the "Company”), a global leader in AI at the convergence of insurance and mobility, today clarified its fiscal first quarter 2026 results following inaccurate reporting by certain media outlets.

Strong Q1 Results
On August 13, 2025, after market close, Roadzen reported record first-quarter revenue of $10.9 million, up 22% year-over-year, along with continued sequential improvement in Adjusted EBITDA, which was a full quarter ahead of analyst expectations, and Q1 FY2026 GAAP EPS of $(0.05). These results were largely consistent with expectations from the analysts who actively cover the Company.

Inaccurate Media Reports
On August 14, The Motley Fool published an AI-generated article — later syndicated across Nasdaq.com, AOL, and several other widely read platforms — that incorrectly stated analyst revenue expectations for Roadzen’s Q1 were more than $21 million, implying the Company had missed estimates by over 50%. These figures were not issued by Roadzen’s covering analysts and had no factual basis. Roadzen reiterates that its reported revenue of $10.9 million — modestly below estimates of $11.4 million (a 4.8% variance) — and GAAP EPS of $(0.05) were in line with analyst expectations.

Corrections and Retractions
On August 15, The Motley Fool corrected its article and added an editor’s note acknowledging that incorrect analyst estimates had been used. The Nasdaq version of the article has since been removed.

The analysts who cover Roadzen — Allen Klee of Maxim and Ashok Kumar of ThinkEquity — both carry “Buy” ratings, with price targets of $4 and $5 respectively.

Rohan Malhotra, CEO and Founder of Roadzen, commented, “We delivered a solid quarter across all fronts, and remain focused on growing the business and creating long-term value for our investors.”
