CRWD EARNINGS

CRWD dropped their Q4 FY2026 earnings today and it was a decent beat overall. Revenue came in at 1.31b topping expectations of 1.30b and eps at 1.12 vs 1.10 cons. Nothing massive but still a beat, stock gapped up to 390. Highlights which caught my attention, Ending ARR crossed 5.25b with 24% yoy growth and net new ARR jumped 47% to a record 331m, this shows the falcon platform is still landing big expansions and new logos amid rising ai/cyber threats. Guidance was strong, 5.87b to 5.93b in revenue for FY 2027 and solid operating leverage. Marigns keep improving as they scale, gross margins trending in the high 70's/low 80's, operating margins trending noticeably higher aswell which is huge for a growth SaaS play turning profitable. Highlights CRWD's key positioning and dominance in the booming cyber sector compared to peers. Valuation is noticeably stretched, sitting at a decent premium regarding ratios like pe and ps but can be worth the premium if growth and margin expansion continues. Has dropped 33% from last ath which was expected considering how expensive they were. Cyber sector remains hot with ai threat exploading and CRWD platform keeps stacking modules driving stickier multi product adoption. I have updated my own personal model after this print which was noticeably lower then the last closing price of 390, I am personally willing to spend extra on a high quality, growing company like CRWD. Current average is 347, I won't go into modelling details on here as the variables are quite large to mention but if your digging into CRWD and want some guidance DM me for details.
