TLDRs;
- Rezolve AI stock rises as Crownpeak acquisition and strong ARR growth boost investor confidence.
- December revenue exceeds $17 million, marking the company’s highest monthly performance to date.

- Stablecoin payment expansion and positive adjusted EBITDA signal growth potential amid ongoing market risks.
Rezolve AI PLC (NASDAQ: RZLV) surged on Wednesday following a strategic acquisition and robust revenue update that underlined the company’s rapid growth trajectory.
The UK-based AI firm, which specializes in “agentic commerce” solutions through its Brain Suite platform, reported preliminary results suggesting December revenue exceeding $17 million and projected annual recurring revenue (ARR) of over $200 million for 2025.
Investors responded positively to these figures, which also included the company’s first projected positive adjusted EBITDA milestone, signaling potential long-term profitability despite an expected GAAP net loss.
Strong December Revenue Drives Momentum
The immediate catalyst behind the stock movement was the company’s preliminary operating update released on December 16, 2025. Management highlighted that December 2025 could be the strongest month in the company’s history, with revenues projected to exceed $17 million. Combined with contracted agreements, the company anticipates ending 2025 with ARR above $200 million, a substantial increase from earlier targets of $100 million and later $150 million.
This narrative of recurring revenue growth is particularly appealing to investors seeking predictable income streams and long-term value in a high-volatility AI market. Analysts noted that this level of ARR positions Rezolve AI for rapid expansion in 2026, with management projecting ARR to surpass $500 million by year-end, translating to more than $40 million in monthly recurring revenue.
Crownpeak Acquisition Expands Footprint
Adding to the bullish sentiment was Rezolve AI’s recent acquisition of Crownpeak, completed on December 5, 2025. The transaction included $90 million in combined cash and equity and the assumption of roughly $150 million in debt. Importantly, management expects the acquisition to be immediately accretive to EBITDA, contributing an estimated $70 million in annual revenue for the current year.
While the Crownpeak deal broadens Rezolve AI’s distribution and enterprise software footprint, investors are keeping an eye on integration challenges and debt management. Such strategic moves can provide significant growth opportunities but also introduce execution risks that may affect short-term stock volatility.
Stablecoin Payments Expansion Adds Growth Levers
Another growth driver highlighted by Rezolve AI is its push into stablecoin-based payments. The company processed more than $1 billion in USD₮ (Tether) and Bitcoin transactions in Brazil and plans to expand this capability to North America, the UK, and Europe.
Analysts consider this an important thematic growth lever, as it positions Rezolve AI to benefit from increasing enterprise adoption of digital currencies, though regulatory and partner-related risks remain a key consideration.
Trading Activity Reflects High Market Interest
The market’s response to Rezolve AI’s updates has been notable. On December 16, call option volume spiked 64% above normal levels, alongside a sharp increase in share trading volume. RZLV shares traded near $2.97, reflecting investor enthusiasm for the company’s revenue trajectory and acquisition strategy.
Analysts maintain a range of price targets, with consensus estimates near $9, highlighting potential upside if the company executes effectively.
