Dropbox Shares Drop on Declining Paying Users Forecast

Dow Jones

Feb 21, 2025

By Denny Jacob

Dropbox shares declined roughly 10% after the company forecast paying users to decline in 2025.

Shares were trading around $28.73 in premarket trading. The stock is up about 33% over the last year.

The software company said it expects paying users to decline 1.5% to 300,000 users. Half of the decline will be a result of Dropbox's reduced investment in FormSwift, said Chief Financial Officer Timothy Regan. The remaining half is expected to stem from a reduced outbound sales force subsequent to its reduced employee headcount.

Regan said roughly half of the full year's decline will occur in the first quarter.
