McGinnis made the call soon after monday.com reported its Q1 2026 earnings on May 11. In the earnings report, monday.com said quarterly revenue reached $351.3 million, up 24% year over year and exceeding the consensus estimate of $346 million. McGinnis acknowledged that the Q1 performance was healthy, but argued that too much uncertainty surrounds the company’s near-term trajectory to justify a more optimistic stance on the stock.

Part of that uncertainty stems from monday.com’s own forward guidance, which anticipates Q2 FY2026 revenue to range from $354 million to $356 million. This guidance implies a year over year growth range of 18%-19%, which, to McGinnis, is a notable slowdown from Q1’s 24% pace.

In the earnings report, Monday.com flagged foreign exchange headwinds that could shave 100-200 basis points off growth for the remainder of the year. Management also noted that planned investments in artificial intelligence, along with potential cost increases, could moderate performance in the second half of 2026.
