In brief

What this company does

It also offers courses in Math and Music, and has launched a Chess course, in addition to its language courses. Learners who use Duolingo for free see an advertisement at the end of each lesson, while those who purchase a paid subscription have an ad-free experience with access to additional features; as of December 31, 2025, approximately 9% of monthly active users were paid subscribers. In 2016, it launched the Duolingo English Test, an online, on-demand assessment of English proficiency; as of December 31, 2025, over 6,100 education programs worldwide accepted its results for international student admissions, including more than 5,300 higher education programs. Duolingo was founded by two engineers, Luis von Ahn and Severin Hacker.

The 6-year record
6 fiscal years
Every figure from documents filed with the SEC · USD

EPS, diluted, dividend per share and shares outstanding are shown without shading, and a vertical line marks the year the share count changed — the series crosses a large, unexplained change in share count, so the years on either side are not on a comparable scale.
