Forward Guidance
No explicit quarterly guidance was provided in the prompt. Based on QQ2 2026 results, Salesforce demonstrates durable revenue growth and meaningful profitability with a fortress balance sheet. In our view, potential guidance would likely emphasize continued mid-to-high single-digit revenue growth, ongoing operating leverage, and AI-enabled product adoption (Sales AI, Slack, Tableau, MuleSoft) to support cross-sell across the Customer 360 platform. Key variables to monitor include renewal rates, ARR progression, gross retention, pipeline strength in large enterprise deals, and the pace of AI feature monetization. Macro headwinds, competitive intensity (e.g., Microsoft, Oracle, SAP) and currency movements for the FOO.DE listing are notable risks.
