The company anticipates third-quarter revenues in the band of $775.4-$778 million. The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $777.2 million, indicating an improvement of 33.8% from the year-ago quarter's reported figure.
CrowdStrike expects non-GAAP earnings of approximately 74 cents per share, which coincides with the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The consensus mark for the bottom line suggests an improvement of 85% from the year-ago quarter’s non-GAAP earnings of 40 cents per share.
The company’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 20.1%.
Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement.
CrowdStrike’s third-quarter fiscal 2024 results are likely to reflect the benefits of the continued solid demand for its products, given the healthy environment of the global security market. The increasing number of people logging into employers' networks has triggered a greater need for security and might have spurred the demand for CRWD’s products in the fiscal third quarter. A strong pipeline of deals indicates the same.
Stellar revenue growth in subscriptions might have contributed significantly to the third-quarter top line. Further, the increasing number of net new subscription customers may have acted as a tailwind.
Our third-quarter estimate for Subscription revenues is pegged at $733.2 million, indicating a year-over-year improvement of 34%. Revenues from the Professional Services segment are likely to increase 27.5% year over year to $42.7 million in the third quarter.
Moreover, CrowdStrike’s collaboration with Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) is an upside, benefiting the company from its products’ availability on the AWS platform. The expansion in the volume of transactions through Amazon’s AWS Marketplace, growth in co-selling opportunities with AWS salesforce and the uptake of AWS service integrations are likely to have contributed to CRWD’s earnings in the to-be-reported quarter.
However, elevated expenses for enhancing sales and marketing capabilities and increased investments in research and development are likely to have weighed on the company’s fiscal third-quarter bottom line.
