Read MoreHide Full Article
Atlassian (TEAM - Free Report) reported stronger-than-expected second-quarter fiscal 2024 results. Its second-quarter fiscal 2024 non-GAAP earnings per share of 73 cents beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 62 cents. The figure increased 62.2% from the year-ago quarter’s non-GAAP earnings of 45 cents per share, mainly driven by double-digit year-over-year growth across segments like Cloud and Data Center.
TEAM’s second-quarter revenues jumped 21.5% to $1.06 billion and surpassed the consensus mark of $1.02 billion. The top line was primarily driven by growth in Subscription revenues, migrations, paid seat expansion, cross-selling of additional products and contribution from Loom to the Cloud revenues.
Quarterly Details
Segment-wise, Subscription revenues jumped 31.1% year over year to $932 million. The ongoing shift toward cloud, the increasing number of customers and higher prices on some products boosted the company's quarterly revenues. Our estimate for Subscription revenues was pegged at $919.6 million.
Atlassian Corporation PLC Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Sales from the Maintenance business decreased 34.8% year over year to $69.1 million.

Atlassian’s Other revenues (including perpetual license revenues) rose 6% year over year to $58.8 million. Our estimate for Other revenues was pegged at $58.8 million.
