Overview
As of 11/13/2026
Salesforce is the leading provider of on-demand Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software, which enables organizations to better manage critical operations, such as sales force automation, customer service and support, marketing automation, document management, analytics and custom application development. Its offerings are delivered on the Agentforce 360 Platform, which connects customer data with integrated AI across systems, apps and devices.
Headquartered in San Francisco, Salesforce was founded in 1999. Over the course of two and a half decades, the company has established itself as the world’s leading CRM vendor, with a market share of nearly 20%, according to Gartner, a global research and advisory firm. Its nearest rival, SAP, trails significantly, with a market share of around 8%. About 90% of Fortune 100 companies use at least one Salesforce software product.
The company has leveraged its expertise in on-demand software to increase the scale of operations. It also offers a technology platform for customers and developers to build and run business applications. The company’s results are reported under a single operating segment.
Salesforce helps companies of all sizes and across industries connect with their customers in new ways through existing and emerging technologies, including cloud, mobile, social, IoT and artificial intelligence (AI).
Rapid digital transformation and the company’s sustained focus on aligning products with customer needs are driving the top line. Salesforce’s annual revenues have grown nearly eightfold from $5.4 billion in fiscal 2015 to $41.5 billion in fiscal 2026.
The company has two main revenue streams — Subscription and Support, and Professional Services and Other.
Subscription revenues (95% of FY26 revenues) comprise subscription fees from customers accessing the company’s enterprise cloud computing services (Cloud Services), software licenses and subscription fees recognized from customers for additional support.
Professional Services & Other revenues (5%) comprise fees generated from consulting, implementation services and training.
As of 11/13/2026
Reasons To Buy:
CRM Franchise: Salesforce remains the leading provider of cloud-based CRM, with a broad suite spanning sales, service, marketing, commerce, analytics and integration. Agentforce is embedded across the platform, extending that installed base into AI-led workflows. In the second quarter of fiscal 2027, Agentforce Sales, Service and Slack seats all grew year over year, while attrition was near its lowest level ever. Contract-length terms also increased across all segments for new business and renewals, supporting the platform’s cross-sell potential and customer stickiness.
SaaS Model and Recurring Revenues: Salesforce’s on-demand model supports standardized deployments, frequent updates and lower ownership costs for customers. In the second quarter of fiscal 2027, subscription and support revenues rose 12% year over year to $10.82 billion, while cRPO increased 14% to $33.5 billion and total RPO rose 11% to $66.3 billion. Management raised fiscal 2027 subscription and support growth guidance to slightly above 12% year over year and slightly under 12% in constant currency. Fiscal 2027 revenue guidance is now $46.1 billion to $46.4 billion, including acquisition contributions, while non-GAAP operating margin guidance remains at 34.3%. For the third quarter, the company expects cRPO growth of about 14% in constant currency, keeping the investment case centered on recurring bookings and profitable subscription growth.
Earnings Consistency Supports Durability: Over the 10-year observation window in our proprietary model, Salesforce's EPS Linearity is 89.5%, above the industry median of 53.9% and close to the ideal 100%, while 10-year EPS growth is 33.1%. The recurring subscription base, low attrition and longer contract terms support a steadier earnings path as growth broadens across Sales, Service, Slack, Agentforce and Data 360. For investors, high linearity matters because a consistent per-share earnings trajectory can reduce dependence on a single product cycle. Still, recent per-share gains have benefited from the $25 billion accelerated share repurchase, and second-quarter GAAP EPS was boosted by strategic-investment gains. Sustained organic revenue reacceleration and margin discipline are needed to preserve the historical pattern.
AI and Agentforce Momentum: Salesforce is pushing generative and agentic AI deeper into its applications and tying adoption to measurable work. In the second quarter of fiscal 2027, Agentforce ARR exceeded $1.5 billion, up more than 240% year over year, while combined Agentforce and Data 360 ARR reached nearly $3.9 billion, up more than 210%. Effective in the quarter, Agentforce ARR includes Salesforce’s AI offerings, Slackbot and Headless 360. Customers generated 3.2 billion Agentic Work Units in the quarter, up 97% sequentially, bringing cumulative delivery to 7.0 billion. The number of accounts with agents in production rose 70% from the prior quarter, and bookings from Agentforce One Edition and Agentforce for Apps more than doubled sequentially. Data 360 ingested 104 trillion records, up 355% year over year, including 82 trillion through Zero Copy, up 731%. The company raised the organic component of fiscal 2027 revenue guidance by $100 million, citing Agentforce, Data 360 and Slack, and remains on track for second-half organic revenue reacceleration.
Portfolio Expansion Through M&A: Acquisitions remain a lever to fill product gaps and deepen the data, content and automation layers around Salesforce’s platform. Informatica contributed $456 million to second-quarter fiscal 2027 revenues, including $440 million of subscription and support revenues, while Informatica Cloud ARR remained part of the Data 360 base. Salesforce has also completed the acquisitions of Contentful and Fin in September 2026. The company expects Contentful and Fin acquisitions to contribute about $200 million to fiscal 2027 revenue. Over time, these assets can broaden content management, autonomous service and trusted data capabilities across the Agentforce platform.
Ecosystem Reach and Integrations: Salesforce’s strategy increasingly separates its data and application foundation from the interfaces customers use to access it. Headless 360 is designed to expose Salesforce through APIs and AI tools, allowing customers to embed governed data, metadata and workflows into external surfaces. In the second quarter of fiscal 2027, weekly calls to Salesforce’s MCP server grew six fold while human application usage remained stable. The company also stated that nine of the top 10 AI companies use Salesforce and Slack, with their spending up 435% year over year. Broader interface access can deepen consumption without requiring customers to abandon existing Salesforce systems of record.
International Investment Path: Salesforce has ramped up investments in Europe, focusing on AI infrastructure, research and development, and local partnerships, with the U.K. serving as an AI hub for the region. In September 2025, the company announced a plan to invest $6 billion in its U.K. business by 2030, building on a prior $4 billion commitment made in 2023. The company also expanded in other parts of Europe, including opening an office in Amsterdam to support Agentforce adoption and maintaining key offices in Munich, Berlin and Dusseldorf, with data center capacity in Frankfurt to support compliance needs. The initiatives have supported higher European revenues over time. In fiscal 2026, Europe revenues increased 13% year over year and represented about 24% of total revenues. In the second quarter of fiscal 2027, Europe revenues rose 14% to $2.76 billion and represented more than 24% of total revenues, while Asia Pacific revenues increased 9% to $1.17 billion and represented 10%. Salesforce’s partnerships with large cloud providers, including Amazon and Alphabet, have also helped the company scale internationally and support secure data sharing across environments. Total second-quarter revenues increased 11% in both nominal and constant currency terms. A larger international footprint can diversify growth as customers adopt Agentforce and Data 360 beyond initial deployments.
Improving Capital Efficiency Supports Reinvestment: Based on our proprietary calculation, trailing 12 months (TTM) return on invested capital (ROIC) is 16.1%, above the 10-year median of 6%; the 5-year and 3-year medians of 8.3% and 10.5% show a sustained improvement, although current ROIC remains below the industry's 42% median. Salesforce's subscription model and margin discipline support the higher return profile, while expanding Agentforce and Data 360 adoption provides a reinvestment runway. For investors, rising ROIC can support compounding when the company can reinvest without proportionate balance-sheet expansion. The main risk is that recent acquisitions lift invested capital faster than their revenue and margin contribution, which could slow or reverse the trend as integration progresses.
Cash Flow and Shareholder Returns: Salesforce continues to generate cash that supports product investment and capital return. In the second quarter of fiscal 2027, operating cash flow (CF) increased 71% year over year to $1.27 billion and free cash flow (FCF) rose 81% to $1.10 billion. For the first six months, operating cash flow reached $7.97 billion and free cash flow was $7.65 billion. Based on our proprietary calculations, TTM CF conversion is 163% versus a 196.1% TTM median, while FCF conversion is 156.8% versus a 189.2% median. The ratios remain strong even after normalizing from the historical baseline, consistent with a subscription model that produces substantial operating cash flow with modest capital expenditure needs; however, material stock-based compensation is a non-cash add-back and warrants caution when judging operating-cash-flow conversion. For investors, sustained conversion matters because it preserves funding capacity for AI investment, acquisitions, dividends and repurchases even as interest costs rise. The company paid $364 million of dividends in the second quarter and continued executing its $25 billion accelerated share repurchase. It expects the program to repurchase at least 14% of shares outstanding and expects final settlement in October 2026. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled about $11.4 billion at July 31, 2026. Fiscal 2027 operating and free cash flow growth guidance remains approximately 4-5%.
Risks(2)
- Macro Sensitivity: Salesforce remains exposed to enterprise budget scrutiny and geopolitical uncertainty that can delay new projects and expansion. The company stated it remains on track for second-half organic revenue reacceleration, but fiscal 2027 guidance still reflects continued volatility in overall license revenues, leaving broader deployment timing important.
- Competition and Pricing: Salesforce faces persistent competition from large platform vendors, including Microsoft and Oracle, which bundle adjacent products and can use pricing to gain market share. Competition can be acute in large enterprise suites where customers evaluate CRM alongside productivity, infrastructure and data tools. Management is expanding Agentforce and Data 360 to defend the platform, but rivals are also investing heavily in AI assistants and workflow automation. If Salesforce has to increase discounting or spend more on go-to-market to maintain share, the benefit from margin discipline could narrow over time. Microsoft continues to broaden Dynamics through assets such as LinkedIn and has used promotional pricing in the past to attract CRM customers. Oracle has strengthened its cloud position through acquisitions, while IBM competes across collaboration and enterprise software. The Microsoft-Adobe tie-up also raises the bar in sales and marketing workflows. These dynamics can raise churn risk at the margin and keep sales cycles longer, especially when customers are making platform decisions.
- Higher Leverage and Interest Costs: Salesforce funded its $25 billion accelerated share repurchase with March 2026 debt issuance, leaving non-current debt at $39.3 billion as of July 31, 2026. Second-quarter interest expense rose to $473 million from $67 million a year earlier, while first-half interest expense reached $790 million versus $135 million. The company continues to forecast fiscal 2027 operating and free cash flow growth of about 4-5%. Higher financing costs reduce flexibility if demand weakens or acquisition needs rise.
- Goodwill and Integration Risk: Salesforce’s acquisition strategy keeps goodwill elevated and adds execution demands. Goodwill was $59.3 billion as of July 31, 2026, more than half of total assets. The completed acquisitions of Contentful and Fin involved about $5.1 billion in aggregate cash consideration. Integration delays or weaker performance from acquired products could slow margin improvement.

The company returned $364 million through dividends during the quarter and continued executing its $25 billion accelerated share repurchase program. Through the first half of fiscal 2027, capital returns totaled $27.9 billion. The share count was down 141 million shares, or 15%, year over year.
CRM Raises Fiscal 2027 Revenue Outlook
Salesforce raised its fiscal 2027 revenue guidance to $46.10-$46.40 billion from $45.90-$46.20 billion. The $200 million increase, or $300 million in constant currency, reflects $100 million of organic growth and $200 million tied to the pending Contentful and Fin acquisitions, partly offset by a $100 million foreign-exchange headwind. Non-GAAP operating margin guidance remains at 34.3%.
Salesforce lifted its fiscal 2027 non-GAAP earnings outlook to $16.67-$16.71 per share from $14.06-$14.12. It continues to expect operating cash flow and free cash flow growth of approximately 4%-5% year over year. Updated guidance incorporates the anticipated contributions from Contentful and Fin and is conditional upon the transactions closing.
For the third quarter of fiscal 2027, CRM expects revenues of $11.42-$11.50 billion, implying 11%-12% year-over-year growth, and non-GAAP earnings of $3.42-$3.44 per share. The company expects cRPO growth of approximately 14% year over year and in constant currency.

Zacks Stock Rating System
We offer two rating systems that take into account investors' holding horizons: Zacks Rank and Zacks Recommendation. Each provides valuable insights into the future profitability of the stock and can be used separately or in combination with each other depending on your investment style.
Zacks Recommendation
The Zacks Recommendation aims to predict performance over the next 6 to 12 months. The foundation for the quantitatively determined Zacks Recommendation is trends in the company's estimate revisions and earnings outlook. The Zacks Recommendation is broken down into 3 Levels; Outperform, Neutral and Underperform. Unlike many Wall Street firms, we have an excellent balance between the number of Outperform and Neutral recommendations. Our team of 70 analysts are fully versed in the benefits of earnings estimate revisions and how that is harnessed through the Zacks quantitative rating system. But we have given our analysts the ability to override the Zacks Recommendation for the 1200 stocks that they follow. The reason for the analyst over-rides is that there are often factors such as valuation, industry conditions and management effectiveness that a trained investment professional can spot better than a quantitative model.
Zacks Rank
The Zacks Rank is our short-term rating system that is most effective over the one- to three-month holding horizon. The underlying driver for the quantitatively-determined Zacks Rank is the same as the Zacks Recommendation, and reflects trends in earnings estimate revisions.
Zacks Style Scores
The Zacks Style Score is as a complementary indicator to the Zacks rating system, giving investors a way to focus on the highest rated stocks that best fit their own stock picking preferences.
Academic research has proven that stocks with the best Value, Growth and Momentum characteristics outperform the market. The Zacks Style Scores rate stocks on each of these individual styles and assigns a rating of A, B, C, D and F. We also produce the VGM Score (V for Value, G for Growth and M for Momentum), which combines the weighted average of the individual Style Scores into one score. This is perfectly suited for those who want their stocks to have the best scores across the board.
As an investor, you want to buy stocks with the highest probability of success. That means buying stocks with a Zacks Recommendation of Outperform, which also has a Style Score of an A or a B.
