And the more intelligence moves to where work happens, the more valuable Salesforce becomes. Agentforce ARR reached $800 million, up 169% year-over-year, and we’ve closed 29,000 deals, up 50% quarter-over-quarter. We’ve consumed nearly 20 trillion tokens, and converted them into more than 2.4 billion agentic work units to date, moments where AI wasn't just reasoning — it was delivering real work. Agentic AI is a tailwind for our business, and we’re well on our way to $63 billion in revenue in FY30.”
“Salesforce delivered a record Q4 as our customers' shift to the Agentic Enterprise surges, fueling NNAOV acceleration in H2 FY26,” said Robin Washington, President and Chief Financial and Operating Officer, Salesforce. “Our performance makes us even more confident in our path to reaccelerate organic revenue growth in H2 FY27. By driving adoption of Agentforce and Data 360 across our platform, we are building a powerful engine that converts raw intelligence into enterprise work. Reflecting our strong trajectory, we’ve increased our authorization to $50 billion for share repurchases and increased our quarterly dividend, reinforcing our commitment to delivering significant shareholder value.”

Q1 FY27 Guidance | |||||||||||
| GAAP | Non-GAAP(1) | ||||||||||
Revenue | $11.03 - $11.08 billion | N/A | |||||||||
Revenue growth(2) | 12% - 13% | 10% - 11% CC, $175M Y/Y FX | |||||||||

Diluted net income per share | $1.77 - $1.79 | $3.11 - $3.13 | |||||||||
Current remaining performance obligation growth(3) | Approximately 14% | Approximately 13% CC, $100M Y/Y FX | |||||||||
| Full Year FY27 Guidance | |||||||||||
| GAAP | Non-GAAP(1) | ||||||||||
Revenue | $45.80 - $46.20 billion | N/A | |||||||||
Revenue growth(2) | 10% - 11% | Approximately 10% - 11% CC, $300M Y/Y FX | |||||||||

Includes approximately 3pts Informatica contribution | |||||||||||

Diluted net income per share | $7.85 - $7.93 | $13.11 - $13.19 | |||||||||
Operating cash flow growth | Approximately 9% - 10% | N/A | |||||||||
| Free cash flow growth | N/A | Approximately 9% - 10% | |||||||||
| Capital expenditures | N/A | Approximately 1.5% of revenue | |||||||||
(1) Non-GAAP CC revenue growth, non-GAAP CC remaining performance obligation growth, non-GAAP CC subscription & support revenue growth, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP diluted net income per share, and free cash flow growth are non-GAAP financial measures. See below for an explanation of non-GAAP financial measures. The Company's shares used in
computing GAAP diluted net income per share guidance and non-GAAP diluted net income per share guidance excludes any impact to share count from potential Q1 - Q4 FY27 repurchase activity under our share repurchase program.
(2) Revenue FX impact is calculated by taking the current period rates compared to the prior period average rates.
(3) Current remaining performance obligation FX impact is calculated by taking the current period rates compared to the prior period ending rates.
(4) Subscription & support revenue excludes professional services revenue.
The following is a reconciliation of GAAP operating margin guidance to non-GAAP operating margin guidance for the full year:
| Full Year FY27 Guidance | ||||||||
GAAP operating margin(1) | 20.9% | |||||||
| Plus | ||||||||
Amortization of purchased intangibles(2) | 4.1% | |||||||
Stock-based compensation expense(2)(3) | 9.0% | |||||||
Restructuring and acquisition-related costs(2)(3) | 0.3% | |||||||
Non-GAAP operating margin(1) | 34.3% | |||||||
(1) GAAP operating margin is the proportion of GAAP income from operations as a percentage of GAAP revenue. Non-GAAP operating margin is the proportion of non-GAAP income from operations as a percentage of GAAP revenue.
(2) The percentages shown above have been calculated based on the midpoint of the low and high ends of the revenue guidance for full year FY27.
(3) The percentages shown in the restructuring and acquisition-related costs line have been calculated based on charges associated with the Company's restructuring initiatives and acquisition-related costs. Stock-based compensation expense excludes stock-based compensation expense related to the Company's restructuring initiatives, which is included in the restructuring and acquisition-related costs line.
The following is a per share reconciliation of GAAP diluted net income per share to non-GAAP diluted net income per share guidance for the next quarter and the full year:
| Fiscal 2027 | |||||||||||
Q1 | FY27 | ||||||||||
GAAP diluted net income per share range(1)(2) | $1.77 - $1.79 | $7.85 - $7.93 | |||||||||
| Plus | |||||||||||
| Amortization of purchased intangibles | $ | 0.59 | $ | 2.00 | |||||||
| Stock-based compensation expense | $ | 1.03 | $ | 4.41 | |||||||
Restructuring and acquisition-related costs(3) | $ | 0.05 | $ | 0.14 | |||||||
| Less | |||||||||||
Income tax effects and adjustments(4) | $ | (0.33) | $ | (1.29) | |||||||
Non-GAAP diluted net income per share(2) | $3.11 - $3.13 | $13.11 - $13.19 | |||||||||
Shares used in computing basic net income per share (millions)(5) | 931 | 938 | |||||||||
Shares used in computing diluted net income per share (millions)(5) | 937 | 943 | |||||||||
(1) The Company's GAAP tax provision is expected to be approximately 21.0% for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and for the year ended January 31, 2027. The GAAP tax rates may fluctuate due to discrete tax items, changes in valuation allowance assessment, future acquisitions, or other transactions.
(2) The Company's projected GAAP and non-GAAP diluted net income per share assumes no change to the value of our strategic investment portfolio as it is not possible to forecast future gains and losses. The impact of future gains or losses from the Company’s strategic investment portfolio could be material.
(3) The estimated impact to GAAP diluted net income per share is in connection with the Company's restructuring initiatives and acquisition-related costs.
(4) The Company’s non-GAAP tax provision uses a long-term projected tax rate of 20.5%, which reflects currently available information and could be subject to change.
(5) The Company's shares used in computing GAAP net income per share guidance and non-GAAP net income per share guidance excludes any impact to share count from potential Q1 - Q4 FY27 repurchase activity under our share repurchase program.
For additional information regarding non-GAAP financial measures see the reconciliation of results and related explanations below.
Management will provide further commentary around these guidance assumptions on its earnings call.

Supplemental Revenue Analysis
Remaining Performance Obligation
Remaining performance obligation ("RPO") represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes unearned revenue and unbilled amounts that will be recognized as revenue in future periods. RPO is influenced by several factors, including seasonality, the timing of renewals, the timing of term license deliveries, average contract terms and foreign currency exchange rates. Remaining performance obligation is also impacted by acquisitions. Unbilled portions of RPO denominated in foreign currencies are revalued each period based on the period end exchange rates. The portion of RPO that is unbilled is not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
RPO consisted of the following (in billions):

Non-GAAP Financial Measures: This press release includes information about non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP tax rates, free cash flow, constant currency revenue and revenue growth rate, constant currency subscription and support revenue growth rate and constant currency current remaining performance obligation growth rates (collectively the “non-GAAP financial measures”). These non-GAAP financial measures are measurements of financial performance that are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and computational methods may differ from those used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures when planning, monitoring and evaluating the Company’s performance.
The primary purpose of using non-GAAP financial measures is to provide supplemental information that may prove useful to investors and to enable investors to evaluate the Company’s results in the same way management does. Management believes that supplementing GAAP disclosure with non-GAAP disclosure provides investors with a more complete view of the Company’s operational performance and allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of trends in the Company’s business. Further to the extent that other companies use similar methods in calculating non-GAAP financial measures, the provision of supplemental non-GAAP information can allow for a comparison of the Company’s relative performance against other companies that also report non-GAAP operating results.
Non-GAAP operating margin is the proportion of non-GAAP income from operations as a percentage of GAAP revenue. Non-GAAP income from operations excludes the impact of the following items: stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and charges associated with the Company's restructuring initiatives. Non-GAAP net income per share excludes, to the extent applicable, the impact of the following items: stock-based compensation expense, amortization of purchased intangibles, charges related to the Company's restructuring initiatives and income tax adjustments. These items are excluded because the decisions that give rise to them are not made to increase revenue in a particular period, but instead for the Company’s long-term benefit over multiple periods.
As described above, the Company excludes or adjusts for the following in its non-GAAP results and guidance:
•Stock-Based Compensation Expense: The Company’s compensation strategy includes the use of stock-based compensation expense to attract and retain employees and executives. It is principally aimed at aligning their interests with those of our stockholders and at long-term employee retention, rather than to motivate or reward operational performance for any particular period. Thus, stock-based compensation expense varies for reasons that are generally unrelated to operational decisions and performance in any particular period.
•Amortization of Purchased Intangibles: The Company views amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, such as the amortization of the cost associated with an acquired company’s research and development efforts, trade names, customer lists and customer relationships, and, in some cases, acquired lease intangibles, as items arising from pre-acquisition activities determined at the time of an acquisition. While these intangible assets are continually evaluated for impairment, amortization of the cost of purchased intangibles is a static expense, which is not typically affected by operations during any particular period. Although the Company excludes the amortization of purchased intangibles from these non-GAAP financial measures, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation.
•Restructuring: Restructuring charges are costs associated with a formal restructuring plan and may include employee notice period costs and severance payments, lease or contract termination costs, asset impairments, accelerated depreciation and amortization and other related expenses. The Company excludes these restructuring charges because they are distinct from ongoing operational costs and it does not believe they are reflective of current and expected future business performance and operating results.
•Acquisition-related costs: Acquisition-related expenses include transaction and integration expenses for consummated transactions that are incurred prior to the acquisition closing or within the first year of the acquisition close date, which may include transaction or integration expenses paid to third parties, one-time severance and retention bonuses for acquired and transitional employees, or exit costs associated with an acquired company’s long-lived assets, such as real estate, or other long-term commercial agreements. The Company excludes these acquisition-related expenses because they are distinct from ongoing operational costs and the Company does not believe they are reflective of current and expected future business performance and operating results.
•Gains (Losses) on Strategic Investments, net: The Company records all fair value adjustments to its equity securities held within the strategic investment portfolio through the statement of operations. As it is not possible to forecast future gains and losses, the Company assumes no change to the value of its strategic investment portfolio in its GAAP and non-GAAP estimates for future periods, including its guidance. Gains (Losses) on Strategic Investments, net, are included in its GAAP financial statements.
•Income Tax Effects and Adjustments: The Company utilizes a fixed long-term projected non-GAAP tax rate in order to provide better consistency across the interim reporting periods by eliminating the effects of items such as changes in the tax valuation allowance and tax effects of acquisition-related costs, since each of these can vary in size and frequency. When projecting this long-term rate, the Company evaluated a three-year financial projection that excludes the direct impact of the following non-cash items: stock-based compensation expenses and the amortization of purchased intangibles. The projected rate also considers factors including the Company’s expected tax structure, its tax positions in various jurisdictions and key legislation in major jurisdictions where the Company operates. For fiscal 2025 and 2026, the Company used a projected non-GAAP tax rate of 22.0%. For fiscal 2027, the Company uses a projected non-GAAP tax rate of 20.5%, which reflects currently available information, as well as other factors and assumptions. The non-GAAP tax rate could be subject to change for a variety of reasons, including the rapidly evolving global tax environment, significant changes in the Company’s geographic earnings mix due to acquisition activity or other changes to the Company’s strategy or business operations. The Company will re-evaluate its long-term rate as appropriate.
The Company presents constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how the Company's underlying business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present constant currency revenue growth rates, current and comparative prior period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars at the weighted average exchange rate for the quarter being compared to rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during that period. To present current remaining performance obligation growth rates on a constant currency basis, current remaining performance obligation balances in local currencies in previous comparable periods are converted using the United States dollar currency exchange rate as of the most recent balance sheet date.
The Company defines the non-GAAP measure free cash flow as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures.
Other Metrics: The Company defines Agentforce and Data 360 annual recurring revenue ("ARR") as the annualized recurring value of active Data 360 and certain generative artificial intelligence ("AI") subscription agreements, including those for Agentforce and generative AI products and features, that were executed at the end of the reporting period.
The Company defines Net New Annual Order Value ("NNAOV") as the net change in the annual order value of our customer subscription agreements during a given period. NNAOV is calculated as the sum of: (i) the annualized contract value from new and existing customers who enter into subscription agreements during the period; less (ii) the reduction in annualized order value from customer cancellations, non-renewals, or downgrades during the period.
The Company defines an Agentic Work Unit ("AWU") as a measure of discrete tasks executed by AI agents in production across the Salesforce platform, including Agentforce and Slack. AWUs represent the conversion of generative AI capabilities into measurable business outputs, such as resolving customer cases, updating records or triggering automated workflows.
