For the first time in our company's history, we achieved profitability for the full year and generated record free cash flow, a testament to our disciplined execution, product innovation, and operational excellence. I'm also happy that we remain on track for sustained growth and profitability exiting 2026. Whether it's EquipmentShare's high-growth debut on Nasdaq, or a global sustainability consultancy's global scale, we are winning. Freddy AI is proving that AI at Freshworks is a tangible revenue engine.
We have outperformed our estimates across growth and profitability metrics for five consecutive quarters, and in Q4, we also achieved profitability. We grew Q4 revenue over 14% year-over-year on an as-reported basis, nearly $3 million above the high end of our estimates. We ended the year at $907 million in annual recurring revenue, which represents 18% growth year-over-year on an as-reported basis and over 14% growth on a constant currency basis. Non-GAAP operating margin expanded to 19%, nearly five points above our free cash flow margin was 25%, and this was the sixth straight quarter we achieved Rule of 40.
