Duolingo user base jumps 30% despite valuation dive

Watch: Monitor Q1 2026 user engagement and monetization metrics for signs that the growth strategy boosts long-term profitability.

Duolingo's monthly active users rose 30% to 52.3 million in early 2026, driven by strong revenue growth of 35% in Q4 and 39% for the full year 2025. The stock trades 81% below its 52-week high with a trailing PE of 12. Revenue growth guidance for 2026 slows to 15-18%, while EPS is expected to rise about 15%.

The rapid user growth contrasts with a significant valuation drop and slower revenue growth guidance, highlighting a pivot from monetization to user expansion that pressures near-term multiples.
