Forward guidance

SentinelOne provided guidance for the second quarter and full fiscal year 2026, expecting continued revenue growth and improvement in non-GAAP gross and operating margins.

Tailwinds

  • Q2 FY26 revenue guidance of $242 million.
  • Full FY2026 revenue guidance of $996 million to $1,001 million.
  • Full FY2026 non-GAAP gross margin guidance of 78.5% to 79.5%.
  • Full FY2026 non-GAAP operating margin guidance of 3% to 4%.
  • Q2 FY26 non-GAAP gross margin guidance of 79%.

Headwinds

  • Guidance for non-GAAP financial measures excludes certain items like stock-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangibles.
  • Reconciliation of non-GAAP gross margin and operating margin to GAAP is not available without unreasonable effort.
  • Actual results may differ materially from forward-looking statements due to various factors.
  • The utility of free cash flow as a liquidity measure is limited as it doesn't represent total cash balance change.
  • Significant factors could cause actual results to differ, including competition, operating history, and market fluctuations.
