VeriSign, Inc. (VRSN) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

You're looking at maximizing returns from the existing .com and .net customer base right now. That's the core of market penetration, and VeriSign, Inc. has some solid numbers to work with from the latest reporting period.

The goal to increase the Q3 2025 renewal rate of 75.3 percent through registrar incentives is directly supported by recent performance. You saw the final renewal rate for Q2 2025 was 75.5 percent, and the preliminary rate for Q3 2025 came in at 75.3 percent, which is an improvement from the 72.2 percent seen in Q3 2024. This suggests the incentive programs are definitely moving the needle, even if there's a slight dip from the immediate prior quarter.

Maximizing revenue from the 171.9 million .com/.net domain base via contractual price increases is a key lever. The .com Registry Agreement permits an increase of up to 7 percent over the previous year in each of the final four years of the current six-year period, which began October 26, 2018. To be fair, the .net agreement allows for an annual increase of up to 10 percent. This is where that reference point of $10.26 wholesale price, which was noted in planning for 2024, becomes relevant as you look toward the 2027 eligibility for the next contractual increase.

Deepening registrar engagement with targeted marketing programs rolled out for 2026 is already showing results. Management noted that improvements in domain base trends are due to enhanced marketing programs and strong registrar engagement. The net increase in the domain base during Q3 2025 was 1.45 million names, with 10.6 million new registrations processed in the quarter, up from 9.3 million in Q3 2024. Here's the quick math on the base:

Capitalizing on AI-driven demand is a current tailwind. Management stated that AI is having a positive impact on registrations and on the utilization of their DNS resolution services, which process over 450 billion DNS transactions per day. This demand is helping push the full-year 2025 domain base growth guidance up to a range of 2.2 percent to 2.5 percent, a significant raise from earlier expectations.

Offering multi-year renewal discounts to lock in customers before the $10.26 wholesale price is eligible for a 7 percent increase in 2027 is a smart tactical move. This strategy helps secure future revenue visibility, which is already reflected in the deferred revenues balance ending Q3 2025 at $1.38 billion, an increase of $80 million from year-end 2024. You also have strong operational cash flow supporting these initiatives, with Q3 2025 operating cash flow hitting $308 million.

Consider these operational metrics supporting the penetration strategy:

• Q3 2025 Revenue: $419 million (up 7.3 percent year-over-year).
• Q3 2025 Diluted EPS: $2.27.
• Share Repurchases in Q3 2025: $215 million (for 0.8 million shares).
• Remaining Share Repurchase Authorization: $1.33 billion.
• Dividend Declared (Oct 2025): $0.77 per share.

VeriSign, Inc. (VRSN) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

You're looking at how VeriSign, Inc. pushes its existing core product-the .com and .net registries-into new geographic or demographic territories. This is about expanding the customer base for what you already sell, so the focus is on market reach, not new products.

Aggressively target the Asia-Pac region, building on the strong new registration growth seen in Q2 2025. Management noted that year-over-year new registration growth was seen across all regions in Q2 2025, with particular strength in Asia-Pac. China is now reported as part of the Asia-Pac regions for tracking purposes. This regional focus is key, especially since Q3 2025 saw 10.6 million new registrations, a 14.3% increase over Q3 2024's 9.3 million registrations. That momentum needs to be captured globally.

Focus sales efforts on emerging markets to drive the domain base growth target of 2.2% to 2.5% for 2025. This is the latest full-year guidance, raised after strong Q2 and Q3 performance, which is a significant pivot from earlier 2025 expectations. Here's a quick look at the domain base metrics supporting this push:

What this estimate hides is the exact mix of growth between established and emerging markets, but the overall target is clear. The full-year 2025 revenue guidance is now between $1.652 billion and $1.657 billion, with operating income projected between $1.119 billion and $1.124 billion, showing the financial impact of this market development.

Create registrar programs specifically for small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) in EMEA to convert local TLD users to .com. The economics of registrar engagement are important here; VeriSign charges a fee per annual increment for initial registration, with the current Initial Second Level Registration Fee set at US $6.60. Structuring programs around this base fee can incentivize registrars to push the premium .com TLD over local options in the EMEA zone.

Partner with global cloud providers to bundle .com/.net registration with new infrastructure deployments. This is about embedding the core product at the point of new digital setup. Registrars, who are the direct customers, must meet technical requirements, including using specific SSL Certificates from providers like Digicert or GlobalSign, to connect to VeriSign's Shared Registration System (SRS).

Tailor marketing to new digital economy segments, like blockchain and Web3 startups, for mass adoption. This means creating messaging that resonates with these cutting-edge users, even though the underlying product is the established .com. The goal is to ensure these new digital entities default to the most reliable TLDs VeriSign operates.

• Registrars need to secure ICANN Accreditation for select TLDs to participate.
• VeriSign provides Software Development Kits to help registrars implement systems.
• First-level telephone support for registrars is available on a 7-day/24-hour basis for nontechnical issues.

VeriSign, Inc. (VRSN) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

You're looking at how VeriSign, Inc. can grow by introducing new products to its current market of domain registrars and their end-users. This is Product Development on the Ansoff Matrix, and it relies on the strength of the existing base.

Regarding the secure and launch of the .web top-level domain (TLD), VeriSign has stated its pleasure that the ICANN Board of Directors concluded its review of the Independent Review Process Panel's Final Declaration, finding VeriSign's participation with Nu Dot Co LLC (NDC) in the 2016 .web auction appropriate. VeriSign looks forward to NDC's execution of the .web Registry Agreement and the subsequent request for assignment of that agreement to VeriSign.

Developing and selling advanced DNS security features targets the existing domain base. As of the end of the third quarter of 2025, VeriSign, Inc. continues to manage a base of 171.9 million .com and .net registrations. The company also handles over 460 billion Domain Name System (DNS) queries on average every single day.

Introducing a premium, managed DNS service tier would leverage core infrastructure expertise. The core business, which funds this development, showed strong profitability in the third quarter of 2025, with an operating margin of 67.89% and net income of $213 million. Diluted earnings per share for that quarter was $2.27.

Offering a new suite of anti-malware and website security tools as an add-on to domain renewals would be a direct product extension. The company's Q3 2025 revenue was $419.1 million.

Investment into new TLD infrastructure, which could support the launch of .web or other projects, is planned within the current fiscal guidance. VeriSign continues to anticipate capital expenditures for fiscal year 2025 to fall between $25 million and $35 million.

Here are some key operational and financial metrics relevant to funding and scaling these new product initiatives:

The Product Development focus areas for VeriSign, Inc. include:

• Secure and launch the .web TLD, following ICANN board review completion.
• Develop advanced DNS security features for the 171.9 million domain base.
• Introduce a premium, managed DNS service tier leveraging core infrastructure expertise.
• Offer a new suite of anti-malware and website security tools as an add-on.
• Invest a portion of the $25 million to $35 million capital expenditure budget into new TLD infrastructure.

VeriSign, Inc. (VRSN) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

Diversification for VeriSign, Inc. (VRSN) means moving beyond the core registry services for .com and .net, which saw the domain base reach 171.9 million registrations by the end of the third quarter of 2025, with a net increase of 1.45 million names that quarter alone. You have a strong financial base to fund these new ventures, evidenced by the $618 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities reported at the end of Q3 2025. Plus, operating cash flow was a robust $308 million for that same quarter.

One clear path is re-entering the security services space. Honestly, VeriSign divested a significant part of this when NeuStar, Inc. acquired the Security Service Customer Contracts, which included Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection and Managed DNS services, on October 25, 2018. Acquiring a specialized cybersecurity firm now would be a direct re-entry. Consider the market context: the global Threat Intelligence Market is surging, projected to reach $11.5 billion in 2025, with AI-powered detection setting the pace. This is a defintely new market for VeriSign, Inc. (VRSN) to tackle with a proprietary AI-powered threat intelligence platform, moving beyond the historical iDefense offering. The company's 10-K filing for 2025 noted the increasing sophistication of AI-driven social engineering attacks, suggesting a clear need for a new, advanced solution.

Leveraging that cash for a strategic investment in the DDI (DNS, DHCP, IPAM) market is another option. This market is estimated to be valued at $3,187.9 million in 2025. Your $618 million in liquidity represents about 19.4% of that 2025 market size. Here's the quick math: that's a substantial war chest for a strategic stake or acquisition in a DDI player, especially given that DDI solutions are critical for network automation and compliance, areas where VeriSign, Inc. (VRSN) already has deep expertise in DNS.

You could also look at launching a new, high-margin Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offering focused on network resilience and availability. This would build directly on the core competency of operating the .com and .net resolution system, which has maintained 100 percent availability for 28 years as of Q2 2025. The current core business shows impressive scalability, with Q3 2025 gross profit margins at 87.88%. An IaaS offering leveraging this reliability could command premium pricing.

Bidding for new country-code TLD (ccTLD) contracts to diversify the registry portfolio beyond .com/.net is a possibility, but you need to weigh the recent history. For instance, VeriSign declined to participate in the tender process for Tuvalu's .tv domain when the contract came up for renewal in 2021, which GoDaddy Registry subsequently won. At the time, a VeriSign spokesperson cited business reasons, and the contract was not deemed immaterial to the company. Still, expanding the registry portfolio is a diversification play, even if .tv is off the table for now.

Here is a snapshot of the financial context supporting these diversification moves:

The potential new market opportunities for diversification include:

• Acquire a specialized cybersecurity firm to re-enter the security services market.
• Strategic investment in the DDI market, valued at $3.1879 billion in 2025.
• Launch a new, high-margin Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offering.
• Develop a proprietary AI-powered threat intelligence platform for large enterprises.
• Bid for new ccTLD contracts, though recent history shows a selective approach to these assets.

If onboarding takes 14+ days, churn risk rises, which is a risk for any new service launch.
