Q2 FY2027 reported results

What to watch

  1. Current remaining performance obligation against approximately 14%, or about $33.5 billion. This is the single most valuable number in the release and it is not the revenue line.
  2. Non-GAAP net income, not non-GAAP EPS. Divide it by the year-ago $2,795 million. If it grows less than the earnings-per-share line — and on the guide it grows roughly zero — the difference is the buyback, and it will not repeat at this size once the progr…
  3. Whether full-year free-cash-flow growth stays at approximately 4–5%. February said 9–10%; May said 4–5% and blamed the bonds. A third number on Wednesday would be the clearest read available on what the $25 billion actually costs.
  4. Any Agentforce figure denominated in dollars of revenue rather than ARR, bookings, work units or tokens. There has never been one. If one appears, it is the most important disclosure of the quarter regardless of its size.
  5. The organic growth rate, excluding Informatica. Salesforce publishes the acquisition's contribution in dollars each quarter. Subtract it.
