It's a biaspectual verb (двувидовой глагол): a verb whose perfective and imperfective forms are identical.

Other verbs like this are жениться, креститься, казнить and many more

Most biaspectual verbs end in -овать and -ировать, but there are some ad-hoc ones as in the example above.

Note that they can be homonyms, like the aforementioned креститься, which means "to accept baptism" as a perfective verb and "to bless oneself, to make the sign of the cross" as an imperfective one.
