The company's Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) grew to $4.66 billion, marking a 20% year-over-year increase [1]. Notably, CrowdStrike posted a record second-quarter net new ARR of $221 million, surpassing internal expectations [1]. The company reported adjusted earnings per share of 93 cents, up from 88 cents in the previous year and beating the analyst consensus of 83 cents [1]. It generated record free cash flow of $284 million, representing 24% of revenue [1].
Despite strong performance, the company faced challenges. Non-GAAP metrics showed strong profitability, with operating income reaching $255 million (22% of revenue), but the company reported a GAAP operating loss of $113.7 million [1]. This loss was attributed to increased stock-based compensation, costs related to a July service disruption, and strategic plan charges [1].
CrowdStrike has been actively integrating AI capabilities into its offerings. In May, the company integrated its Falcon platform with Nvidia Enterprise AI Factory, bringing enterprise-grade protection to AI infrastructure and model workflows [1]. In June, Falcon Cloud Security expanded, partnering with Nvidia to deliver full lifecycle protection for large language models [1]. The company introduced agentic-AI security tools to the AWS Marketplace in July [1] and launched AI-powered features such as Asset Criticality scoring and Client-Side Attack Path Analysis for Falcon Exposure Management [1].
The company announced its intent to acquire Onum, a leading data pipeline platform, to complement its next-gen Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) capabilities [1]. The Falcon Flex subscription model has gained significant traction, with total Flex customers exceeding 1,000 and the average Flex customer representing more than $1 million of ending ARR [1]. The rate of 'reflexes' (customers expanding early within their contract) nearly doubled to almost 10% of Flex users in just five months [1].
Despite strong performance, CrowdStrike's stock experienced some volatility following the earnings release. The company's revenue guidance for the third quarter ($1.208 billion to $1.218 billion) fell short of analyst expectations of $1.23 billion [1]. For the full fiscal year 2026, CrowdStrike expects adjusted earnings per share of $3.60 to $3.72 and revenue of $4.76 billion to $4.8 billion [1]. Management expressed confidence in achieving at least 40% year-over-year net new ARR growth for the second half of the fiscal year, projecting ending ARR growth to exceed 22% [1].
