Grounding quotes
  • “Rapid7 had a strong close to 2023, ending the year with $806 million in ARR, growing 13% over the prior year while delivering revenue, operating income, and free cash flow above our guided ranges.”
  • “We're seeing strong demand from CISOs because they have a backlog of projects, but the CFOs have slowed funding for some of those projects.”
  • “However, our baseline guidance reflects a conservative outlook. We're committed to strong free cash flow growth, which we want to come from higher ARR growth. If the market is tighter, that free cash flow can come from margin expansion, which Tim and our finance team can achieve.”
  • “we expect the market to be noisy. While Q4 was consistent and stable with strong funding, I'm not going to assume that all security projects will get funded.”
