The company also cited internal research showing 65% of organizations are implementing at least one AI use case, with self-service automation at 42%. Five9 reported record full-year 2025 revenue of $1.149 billion and Q1 2026 revenue of $305.3 million. CEO Amit Mathradas and CMO Jay Lee were recently appointed.
