CrowdStrike's New Milestones

CrowdStrike (Nasdaq: CRWD) dipped by 0.54% in after-hours trading on Tuesday despite good financial earnings results from the cybersecurity company.

Financials: CrowdStrike reported earnings of 82 cents per share in the past quarter and revenue of $786 million; both were better than expected.

Quote: “CrowdStrike’s record third quarter exceeded expectations, delivering new milestones across the business: net new ARR growth accelerated to a record $223 million and ending ARR surpassed $3 billion, making CrowdStrike the fastest and only pure play cybersecurity software vendor in history to achieve this milestone.” - CEO George Kurtz.

Outlook: The company expects revenue to jump to $840 million in the current quarter, which did not impress investors enough. That’s why the stock dropped.

Stock Price: Before the earnings report, CrowdStrike’s stock price more than doubled in 2023.

Final Thoughts: Cybersecurity company CrowdStrike is on fire in 2023, thanks to higher demand and more business data breaches. But similar to the earnings results from rival Zscaler (Nasdaq: ZS) on Monday, investors were not that impressed.
