Palo Alto Networks closed out fiscal 2025 on a strong note, posting Q4 revenue of $2.54 billion, up 15.8% year over year, and non-GAAP EPS of $0.95 against a consensus estimate of $0.89, a beat of 6.74%, as the company's platformization strategy cont… Read more Palo Alto Networks closed out fiscal 2025 on a strong note, posting Q4 revenue of $2.54 billion, up 15.8% year over year, and non-GAAP EPS of $0.95 against a consensus estimate of $0.89, a beat of 6.74%, as the company's platformization strategy continued to draw enterprise customers away from fragmented point-product security tools. Next-Generation Security ARR climbed 32% year over year to $5.60 billion, while remaining performance obligations grew 24% to $15.80 billion, signaling robust future revenue visibility that underpins management's fiscal 2026 guidance for total revenue of $10.48 billion to $10.53 billion and non-GAAP EPS of $3.75 to $3.85. The quarter also marked a milestone leadership transition, with founder Nir Zuk retiring after two decades and Chief Product Officer Lee Klarich stepping into the CTO role. Still, shares came under pressure following the print, as investors weighed near-term growth deceleration implied in Q1 FY2026 guidance of $2.45 billion to $2.47 billion in revenue against an otherwise constructive longer-term outlook.
Key Takeaways
- • Next-Generation Security ARR grew 32% YoY to $5.6 billion
- • Remaining performance obligations grew 24% YoY to $15.8 billion
- • Subscription and support revenue grew to $1.96 billion, representing majority of total revenue
- • Platformization strategy driving customer consolidation of security tools
- • Rule-of-50 company for fifth consecutive year
