Austin, Tuesday, 3 March 2026.
Cybersecurity leader CrowdStrike Holdings (CRWD) delivered a solid performance for its fiscal fourth quarter ending January 31, 2026, driven by accelerating enterprise demand for AI-integrated security solutions. The company reported adjusted earnings per share of $1.12 on revenue of $1.31 billion, surpassing Wall Street’s expectations of $1.10 and $1.30 billion, respectively. A pivotal highlight was the company’s Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) climbing 24% year-over-year to breach the $5.25 billion mark, underscored by a record $1.01 billion in net new ARR for the fiscal year.
