  • Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining our fiscal third-quarter earnings call. Our Q3 results demonstrate strong execution and business momentum. We exceeded our top-line growth expectations and continue to deliver year-over-year margin improvement. Importantly, our net new ARR growth reaccelerated back to positive territory, driven by solid execution and a record number of customers with ARR of $100,000 or more. This momentum reflects a stronger competitive position and notable rise in customer interest for SentinelOne.

    大家下午好,感謝您參加我們的第三季財報電話會議。我們第三季的業績展現了強勁的執行力和業務動能。我們超越了我們的營收成長預期,並繼續實現利潤率同比改善。重要的是,在穩健的執行和創紀錄的 ARR 達到或超過 100,000 美元的客戶數量的推動下,我們的新 ARR 淨增長重新加速回到正值區域。這一勢頭反映了 SentinelOne 更強大的競爭地位以及客戶興趣的顯著上升。

  • Let's review the details of our quarterly performance. In Q3, total ARR grew 29% and revenue grew 28% year-over-year. Net new ARR of $54 million increased over 20% sequentially, well above our historical third quarter seasonality. And Importantly, our net new ARR growth accelerated to 4% year over year. This return to positive growth is a strong indication of our business momentum and improving market position. While we continue to operate in a challenging macroeconomic landscape, the strength of our Q3 performance was broad-based across geographies and platform solutions.

    讓我們回顧一下我們季度業績的細節。第三季度,總 ARR 年增 29%,營收年增 28%。淨新 ARR 為 5,400 萬美元,季增 20% 以上,遠高於第三季的歷史季節性水準。重要的是,我們的新 ARR 淨成長率年增至 4%。這種恢復正增長有力地表明了我們的業務勢頭和市場地位的改善。雖然我們繼續在充滿挑戰的宏觀經濟環境中運營,但我們第三季的業績優勢是跨地域和平台解決方案的廣泛基礎。

  • Once again, we delivered best-in-class gross margin of 80%. Operating margin improved by more than 6 percentage points compared to last year. And for a second consecutive quarter, we delivered positive net income with an improving margin profile and a solid balance sheet we have the opportunity to be dynamic and flexible, positioning ourselves for long-term share gains across diverse growth opportunities.

    我們再次實現了 80% 的同類最佳毛利率。與去年相比,營業利潤率提高了 6 個百分點以上。我們連續第二季實現了正淨利潤,利潤率狀況不斷改善,資產負債表穩健,我們有機會保持活力和靈活性,在各種成長機會中實現長期份額收益。

  • As I mentioned on our last earnings call, the increasing sophistication and intensity of modern cyber threats are exposing the growing shortcomings of incumbent security solutions, even so-called modern technologies are aging faster than ever. As a result, customer awareness and interest in our platform in AI-based security have risen. We're beginning to see notable strength with new and large customer additions.

    正如我在上次財報電話會議上提到的那樣,現代網路威脅的日益複雜性和強度正在暴露出現有安全解決方案日益增長的缺陷,甚至所謂的現代技術也比以往任何時候都更快地老化。因此,客戶對我們基於人工智慧的安全平台的認識和興趣有所提高。我們開始看到新客戶和大客戶的增加所帶來的顯著優勢。

  • In Q3, we added a record number of $100,000-plus ARR customers, which grew 24% year over year. Our customers with more than $1 million in ARR grew even faster. Overall, our success with large enterprises and platform adoption continues to drive higher ARR per customer, which reached a new record in Q3 as well.

    第三季度,我們增加了創紀錄的 ARR 超過 10 萬美元的客戶數量,年增 24%。我們的 ARR 超過 100 萬美元的客戶成長得更快。總體而言,我們在大型企業和平台採用方面的成功繼續推動每位客戶的 ARR 更高,這在第三季也創下了新紀錄。

  • In parallel, we continue to maintain healthy expansion rates with our existing customer base. We continue to see substantial growth potential with our installed base over the long term.

    同時,我們繼續保持現有客戶群的健康擴張率。從長遠來看,我們繼續看到我們的安裝基礎具有巨大的成長潛力。

  • In October, we hosted our first Investor Day at our OneCon Customer Conference. It was a terrific event with record attendance, plenty of excitement, and great customer conversations. A central point of the discussions was the evolution and expansion of singularity from an endpoint-centric solution to now one of the broadest, most performant and reliable enterprise security platforms in the market. Regardless of the size or industry, our customers benefit from our modern data analytics architecture, cutting-edge AI security models, and broad coverage across endpoint, cloud identity, and more.

    10 月,我們在 OneCon 客戶會議上舉辦了第一屆投資者日活動。這是一場非常棒的活動,出席人數創歷史新高,充滿了興奮感,並與客戶進行了精彩的對話。討論的中心點是奇點從以端點為中心的解決方案的演變和擴展,到現在市場上最廣泛、性能最強、最可靠的企業安全平台之一。無論規模或行業如何,我們的客戶都受益於我們的現代資料分析架構、尖端的人工智慧安全模型以及跨端點、雲端身分等的廣泛覆蓋。

  • The Singularity platform is a prominent recognitions across the industry including being named a leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection for the fourth consecutive year, leading MITRE evaluations also for four years in a row, a clear demonstration of Singularity's undisputed security efficacy; Cyber SecOps Innovation Award for Purple AI, receiving SC Media's top owners for best enterprise security solution and best endpoint security solution.

    就在昨天,Singularity 雲端安全被公認為 CRM 年度雲端安全產品的總冠軍。這些認可證明了我們的創新領導力和平台差異化。

  • We're delivering larger platform wins and expansions among both new and existing customers. These are powerful security and data capabilities. Each of our platform solutions delivers functionality equivalent to deploying multiple modules from competing vendors. We sell solutions, not an endless list of modules and point features.

    我們正在為新舊客戶帶來更大的平台勝利和擴張。這些都是強大的安全和資料功能。我們的每個平台解決方案提供的功能相當於部署來自競爭供應商的多個模組。我們銷售解決方案,而不是無窮無盡的模組和點功能清單。

  • Our platform coverage positions SentinelOne as a strategic cybersecurity partner for enterprises. Among many platform wins in Q3, a major international retailer adopted endpoint cloud and identity security, Purple AI and threat hunting services. This broad platform deal was a multimillion dollar expansion that doubled the ARR of the customer.

    我們的平台覆蓋範圍使 SentinelOne 成為企業的策略網路安全合作夥伴。在第三季的眾多平台勝利中,一家大型國際零售商採用了端點雲端和身分安全、Purple AI 和威脅狩獵服務。這項廣泛的平台交易是一項價值數百萬美元的擴張,使客戶的 ARR 翻了一番。

  • In another example, a leading technology provider selected endpoint and cloud security, network visibility and AI SIEM for a multiyear and multimillion-dollar deal. Purple AI was a quote, must have. With the Singularity platform, we help enterprises seamlessly aggregate data and leverage industry-leading AI.

    在另一個例子中,一家領先的技術供應商選擇了端點和雲端安全、網路視覺性和 AI SIEM 來進行一項為期數年、價值數百萬美元的交易。紫色AI是一句引言,必須引用。透過 Singularity 平台,我們幫助企業無縫聚合資料並利用業界領先的人工智慧。

  • We continue to see outsized growth from our cloud, data, and AI solutions. At OneCon, we detailed the rising scale and opportunity with cloud and data, exceeding $100 million and $70 million in ARR, respectively. These solutions continue to drive premium growth for our business and represent unbounded opportunities in massive target markets.

    我們繼續看到我們的雲端、數據和人工智慧解決方案的大幅成長。在 OneCon 上,我們詳細介紹了雲端和數據不斷增長的規模和機遇,ARR 分別超過 1 億美元和 7,000 萬美元。這些解決方案持續推動我們業務的優質成長,並代表龐大目標市場的無限機會。

  • As one of our newer capabilities, Purple AI remains a true source of platform depreciation and growth. The market response and interest in Purple has been extremely positive.

    作為我們的新功能之一,Purple AI 仍然是平台折舊和成長的真正來源。市場對紫色的反應和興趣非常積極。

  • In Q3, the attach rate of Purple AI across all eligible endpoints doubled compared to Q2. Purple is one of the fastest-growing solutions in SentinelOne's history and will continue to drive meaningful growth into the future.

    在第三季度,所有符合條件的端點上 Purple AI 的連接率與第二季度相比翻了一番。 Purple 是 SentinelOne 歷史上成長最快的解決方案之一,並將繼續推動未來的有意義的成長。

  • GenAI for security use cases is a force multiplier for security analysts. Customers using Purple AI enjoy real gains in productivity to streamline workflows and more automation. And Purple is continuously getting better.

    用於安全用例的 GenAI 是安全分析師的力量倍增器。使用 Purple AI 的客戶可以真正提高生產力,簡化工作流程並提高自動化。而紫色也在不斷變得更好。

  • We recently announced auto alert triage, threat hunting, and investigation capabilities. We're giving security analysts the tools they need to manage hundreds and thousands of alerts in just minutes, giving them the upper hand against threats.

    我們最近宣布了自動警報分類、威脅搜尋和調查功能。我們為安全分析師提供了在短短幾分鐘內管理數百上千個警報所需的工具,使他們在應對威脅方面佔上風。

  • Importantly, we are committed to ensuring that our AI capabilities are used ethically, safely, and securely. Our AI models provide transparency and ensure that customers maintain complete control of their data within our platform keeping sensitive information in the hands of its rightful owners.

    重要的是,我們致力於確保我們的人工智慧功能得到合乎道德、安全可靠的使用。我們的人工智慧模型提供透明度,並確保客戶在我們的平台內保持對其數據的完全控制,將敏感資訊掌握在其合法所有者的手中。

  • Also at OneCon, we introduced AI SIEM, a foundation for real-time autonomous cybersecurity for the future. AI SIEM is so much more than just NextGen SIEM. By ingesting and synthesizing data from across the security ecosystem, our AI SIEM provides full visibility real-time detection and streaming data, exciting investigation, and autonomous responses. We're empowering enterprises to supercharge security operations and fight AI with AI. Our technology and vision are resonating with customers and partners.

    同樣在 OneCon 上,我們推出了 AI SIEM,這是未來即時自主網路安全的基礎。 AI SIEM 不僅僅是下一代 SIEM。透過攝取和綜合整個安全生態系統的數據,我們的 AI SIEM 提供全面可見的即時偵測和串流數據、令人興奮的調查和自主回應。我們正在幫助企業增強安全營運能力,並以人工智慧對抗人工智慧。我們的技術和願景與客戶和合作夥伴產生共鳴。

  • As an example, a major federal agency selected both endpoint and AI SIEM for unified trade visibility in a single platform, proactive threat hunting, and automated rollback capabilities. We're also seeing MSSPs expand our platform adoption, with emerging solutions like Purple AI and Singularity Data Lake to reduce costs and improve visibility and security for their customer base.

    例如,一家主要聯邦機構選擇了端點和 AI SIEM,以在單一平台中實現統一的貿易視覺性、主動威脅搜尋和自動回滾功能。我們也看到 MSSP 透過 Purple AI 和 Singularity Data Lake 等新興解決方案擴大了我們平台的採用,以降低成本並提高其客戶群的可見度和安全性。

  • In addition to Purple AI, we're pairing AI SIEM with our recently announced hyperautomation capabilities. SentinelOne is bringing more automation use cases with next-gen SOAR and making it faster and easier to use or without coal. It's unlike any other data or SIEM solution on the market and will further unlock the legacy SIEM opportunity.

    除了 Purple AI 之外,我們還將 AI SIEM 與我們最近宣布的超級自動化功能結合。 SentinelOne 正在透過下一代 SOAR 帶來更多自動化用例,並使其更快、更容易使用,甚至無需煤炭。它不同於市場上任何其他數據或 SIEM 解決方案,並將進一步釋放傳統 SIEM 機會。

  • In Cloud Security, we continue to see strong adoption of our leading cloud workload protection solution and the combination of agent-based and agentless capabilities offers a comprehensive approach to securing the cloud. Building on our industry-leading CNAPP capabilities, we recently announced AI security portion management to protect and secure the use of GenAI services in the workplace.

    在雲端安全方面,我們繼續看到我們領先的雲端工作負載保護解決方案得到廣泛採用,並且基於代理和無代理功能的組合提供了保護雲端安全的全面方法。基於我們行業領先的 CNAPP 能力,我們最近宣布了 AI 安全部分管理,以保護和保障 GenAI 服務在工作場所的使用。

  • Singularity AI-SPM gives enterprises visibility into AI services, detecting misconfigurations and vulnerabilities in AI applications and determining potential attack paths. AI-SPM was designed from the ground up to safeguard AI models and pipelines deployed on managed AI services such as Amazon SageMaker, Amazon Bedrock, Azure Open AI, and Google Vertex AI. We're enabling enterprises to securely adopt modern AI technologies. SentinelOne customers can confidently embrace AI transformative benefits and competitive advantages while protecting and securing AI data and applications.

    Singularity AI-SPM 讓企業能夠了解 AI 服務、偵測 AI 應用程式中的錯誤配置和漏洞並確定潛在的攻擊路徑。 AI-SPM 的設計初衷是為了保護部署在託管 AI 服務(例如 Amazon SageMaker、Amazon Bedrock、Azure Open AI 和 Google Vertex AI)上的 AI 模型和管道。我們使企業能夠安全地採用現代人工智慧技術。 SentinelOne 客戶可以自信地擁抱 AI 變革性優勢和競爭優勢,同時保護 AI 資料和應用程式的安全。

  • Rounding out the discussion of our platform, endpoint remains a cornerstone of enterprise security and a key driver of our business. In light of the unprecedented IT outage on July 19, enterprises are distinctly more focused on the combination of security performance and reliability. We're engaging with an increasing number of large enterprises. Many of them are getting a chance to evaluate and experience our technology and platform breadth for the first time, and they're pleased with what they're seeing.

    結束對我們平台的討論後,端點仍然是企業安全的基石和我們業務的關鍵驅動力。鑑於7月19日史無前例的IT中斷,企業顯然更加重視安全性能和可靠性的結合。我們正在與越來越多的大型企業合作。他們中的許多人第一次有機會評估和體驗我們的技術和平台廣度,他們對所看到的感到滿意。

  • As a result, we achieved a record number of customer wins against our closest competitor in Q3. More opportunities equating to more wins. In one example, a Fortune 50 company switched to SentinelOne due to the superior platform architecture and efficacy, integration capabilities and productivity enhancements with Purple AI.

    結果,我們在第三季度擊敗了最接近的競爭對手,贏得了創紀錄的客戶數量。更多機會等於更多勝利。在一個例子中,財富 50 強公司由於 Purple AI 卓越的平台架構和功效、整合能力和生產力增強而轉向 SentinelOne。

  • We also had a number of federal and local government entities switch to SentinelOne after testing our platform against their existing solution. In all of those evaluations, they found a Singularity platform was easier to use and improve their security posture. Many of these customers are already considering enhancing the performance and experience with Singularity Data Lake and Purple AI, which are unique capabilities, absent from other alternatives.

    在針對他們現有的解決方案測試我們的平台後,我們還有許多聯邦和地方政府實體轉向 SentinelOne。在所有這些評估中,他們發現 Singularity 平台更容易使用並改善他們的安全狀況。其中許多客戶已經在考慮使用 Singularity Data Lake 和 Purple AI 來增強效能和體驗,這是其他替代方案所沒有的獨特功能。

  • Taking a step back, the shortcomings of incumbent solutions are becoming more apparent than ever before. siloed solutions, cost platform architectures and human dependent security solutions simply cannot keep pace with modern threats. We had one customer that utilized SentinelOne to protect servers and Microsoft for end points. After endpoints covered by Microsoft Defender were breached twice in just the past 12 months, this customer turned to SentinelOne for incidence response and recovery and ultimately decided to secure their endpoint footprint with SentinelOne as well.

    退一步來說,現有解決方案的缺點比以往任何時候都更加明顯。孤立的解決方案、成本平台架構和依賴人的安全解決方案根本無法跟上現代威脅的步伐。我們有一位客戶利用 SentinelOne 來保護伺服器,並利用 Microsoft 來保護端點。在 Microsoft Defender 覆蓋的端點在過去 12 個月內兩次遭到破壞後,該客戶轉向 SentinelOne 進行事件回應和恢復,並最終決定也使用 SentinelOne 來保護其端點足跡。

  • Overall, there is more awareness, consideration, and interest in SentinelOne than ever before. We're now engaging in opportunities that weren't available to us in the past. This includes some of the largest financial institutions in the world and other strategic opportunities as well as more channel engagement. This will play out in quarters and years to come.

    整體而言,人們對 SentinelOne 的認識、考慮和興趣比以往任何時候都多。我們現在正在抓住過去無法獲得的機會。這包括世界上一些最大的金融機構和其他策略機會以及更多的管道參與。這將在未來幾個季度和幾年內發揮作用。

  • As enterprises evaluate, test, and come to renew their incumbent solutions over time. The road is open. To maximize our long-term success and scale, we're strategically expanding our market presence. Let me provide a few examples.

    隨著時間的推移,企業評估、測試並更新其現有解決方案。道路是開放的。為了最大限度地提高我們的長期成功和規模,我們正在策略性地擴大我們的市場份額。讓我舉幾個例子。

  • First, we partnered with Lenovo, the world's largest PC manufacturer together Lenovo will bundle the Singularity platform in Purple AI on new enterprise PC shipments to enhance security and autonomous protection to millions of endpoints across the world in the coming years. The agreement showcases how SentinelOne can truly partner and not compete with other industry participants. We believe partnering with OEMs like Lenovo can drastically increase the reach and scale of Singularity.

    首先,我們與全球最大的 PC 製造商聯想合作,聯想將在新的企業 PC 發貨中捆綁 Purple AI 中的 Singularity 平台,以在未來幾年增強全球數百萬端點的安全性和自主保護。該協議展示了 SentinelOne 如何真正與其他行業參與者合作而不是競爭。我們相信,與聯想等原始設備製造商合作可以大大擴大 Singularity 的覆蓋範圍和規模。

  • Second, we're expanding our presence in the federal arena, and we recently achieved FedRAMP High for both endpoint security and AI SIEM. Going through rigorous testing over multiple years, this designation is a testament of our performance and ability to meet the most demanding security requirements.

    其次,我們正在擴大在聯邦領域的影響力,最近我們在端點安全和 AI SIEM 方面都獲得了 FedRAMP High 認證。經過多年的嚴格測試,這項頭銜證明了我們滿足最苛刻的安全要求的性能和能力。

  • Third, we've expanded our partnership with AWS. AWS customers that choose SentinelOne can now run Purple AI on Amazon Bedrock. We will continue to deepen our relationship with Amazon, enabling customers to choose and deploy Singularity to one of the largest cloud providers in the world.

    第三,我們擴大了與AWS的合作關係。選擇 SentinelOne 的 AWS 客戶現在可以在 Amazon Bedrock 上執行 Purple AI。我們將繼續深化與亞馬遜的關係,使客戶能夠選擇 Singularity 並將其部署到全球最大的雲端供應商之一。

  • Finally, as I mentioned earlier, we're enabling our MSSP partners to adopt more of the Singularity platform like Singularity Data Lake and Purple AI. This helps them improve efficiency, enhanced security, and expand their business potential. We also recently launched our suite of agentless CNAPP solutions for MSSPs, including CSPM, CIEM, and more.

    最後,正如我之前提到的,我們正在幫助我們的 MSSP 合作夥伴採用更多的 Singularity 平台,例如 Singularity Data Lake 和 Purple AI。這有助於他們提高效率、增強安全性並擴大業務潛力。我們最近也推出了適用於 MSSP 的無代理程式 CNAPP 解決方案套件,包括 CSPM、CIEM 等。

  • All in all, our improving execution, expanding market presence, and leading platform capabilities are driving more customer engagement and interest in SentinelOne than ever before. It's on us to execute well and convert these tailwinds into customer wins over time.

    總而言之,我們不斷提高的執行力、不斷擴大的市場影響力以及領先的平台能力正在推動更多客戶對 SentinelOne 的參與度和興趣。我們有責任好好執行,並隨著時間的推移將這些有利因素轉化為客戶的勝利。

  • We're working hand-in-hand with customers and partners to test, trial, and deploy the Singularity platform. We're focused on building long-lasting relationships and enduring security infrastructure, helping organizations stay ahead of the evolving threat landscape.

    我們正在與客戶和合作夥伴攜手測試、試用和部署 Singularity 平台。我們專注於建立持久的關係和持久的安全基礎設施,幫助組織在不斷變化的威脅情況中保持領先地位。

  • Security solutions are strategic and mission-critical for enterprises. We're constantly innovating in building intelligent autonomous cybersecurity for the future. Just this week, we were named to Fortune's Future 50 list recognized as a company most likely to adapt, drive, and grow. We have the right strategy, people, and technology. I'm encouraged by the growth and momentum we delivered in Q3.

    安全解決方案對於企業來說具有戰略意義和關鍵任務。我們不斷創新,建構未來的智慧自主網路安全。就在本週,我們入選《財星》未來 50 大企業名單,被認為是最有可能適應、推動和發展的公司。我們擁有正確的策略、人才和技術。我對我們在第三季度實現的成長和勢頭感到鼓舞。

  • While early, the investments we're making in expanding our market presence and mine share are fueling one of the highest growth rates in all of software.

    雖然還處於早期階段,但我們在擴大市場佔有率和礦山份額方面所做的投資正在推動所有軟體中成長率最高的國家之一。

  • In this quarter alone, we achieved record contributions across Platform Solutions, returned to positive new business growth, and continued expanding margins. We are positioning the company for long-term share gains across diverse growth opportunities.

    僅在本季度,我們就在整個平台解決方案中實現了創紀錄的貢獻,恢復了新業務的積極成長,並持續擴大了利潤率。我們將公司定位為透過多元化的成長機會實現長期份額收益。

  • With that, I would like to welcome and turn the call over to Barbara Larson, our Chief Financial Officer.

    在此,我謹歡迎並將電話轉給我們的財務長芭芭拉‧拉森 (Barbara Larson)。

    Barbara Larson - Chief Financial Officer

  • Thank you, Tomer, and thanks to everyone for joining us today. I'm thrilled to be here. Stepping into this role has been an exciting journey, and it's a privilege to work alongside an incredible team dedicated to transforming cybersecurity. Over the past couple of months, I focused my time on listening, learning, and exploring SentinelOne's unique strengths and opportunities.

    謝謝你,托默,也謝謝大家今天加入我們。我很高興來到這裡。擔任這項職務是一段令人興奮的旅程,很榮幸能夠與致力於變革網路安全的令人難以置信的團隊一起工作。在過去的幾個月裡,我將時間集中在傾聽、學習和探索 SentinelOne 的獨特優勢和機會。

  • Our mission is to secure the future through cutting-edge technology. From a financial perspective, we're committed to delivering consistent value and building on the strong foundation already in place. I see clear potential for long-term growth, scale, and operating leverage.

    我們的使命是透過尖端技術保障未來。從財務角度來看,我們致力於提供一致的價值並建立在現有的堅實基礎上。我看到了長期成長、規模和營運槓桿的明顯潛力。

  • Now, let's review the details of our third-quarter financial performance and our guidance for Q4 and fiscal year '25. As a reminder, all comparisons are year over year and financial measures discussed here are non-GAAP unless otherwise noted. We exceeded our third-quarter revenue and ARR growth expectations. Revenue increased 28% to $211 million in the quarter with strong momentum across all geographies. Revenue from international markets also grew 28% and represented 37% of our quarterly revenue.

    現在,讓我們回顧一下我們第三季度財務業績的詳細資訊以及我們對第四季度和 25 財年的指導。提醒一下,除非另有說明,所有比較都是逐年比較,這裡討論的財務指標都是非公認會計準則的。我們超出了第三季營收和 ARR 成長預期。本季營收成長 28%,達到 2.11 億美元,所有地區均呈現強勁勢頭。來自國際市場的營收也成長了 28%,占我們季度營收的 37%。

  • In Q3, our total ARR grew 29% to $860 million. net new ARR of $54 million exceeded our expectations and grew 22% sequentially, significantly outpacing our historical Q3 seasonality. Our Q3 net new ARR increased by 4% year over year, reflecting a 14-percentage-point improvement from the growth rate in Q2. This reacceleration of new business growth marks a return to positive growth and demonstrates that we are well-positioned to deliver stronger net new ARR growth in the second half of the year compared to the first half.

    第三季度,我們的總 ARR 成長了 29%,達到 8.6 億美元。淨新 ARR 達 5,400 萬美元,超出了我們的預期,環比增長 22%,顯著超過了我們歷史上第三季度的季節性。我們第三季的淨新 ARR 年增 4%,較第二季的成長率提高 14 個百分點。新業務成長的重新加速標誌著正成長的回歸,並表明我們處於有利位置,可以在今年下半年實現比上半年更強勁的新 ARR 淨成長。

  • This quarter, we added a record number of customers with ARR of $100,000 or more. This reflects our team's strong execution and improved competitive position and broad adoption of our platform solutions. The growth of our emerging solutions and success with large enterprises continues to drive higher ARR per customer, which increased by a double-digit percentage year over year and to a new high in Q3. Consistent with prior quarters, we continue to maintain healthy expansion rates across our existing customer base.

    本季度,我們增加了創紀錄的 ARR 達到或超過 100,000 美元的客戶數量。這反映了我們團隊強大的執行力、提高的競爭地位以及我們平台解決方案的廣泛採用。我們新興解決方案的成長以及與大型企業的成功繼續推動每位客戶的 ARR 上升,比去年同期成長兩位數百分比,並在第三季度創下新高。與前幾季一樣,我們繼續在現有客戶群中保持健康的擴張率。

  • Beyond top-line growth, our Q3 gross margin of 80% highlights the strong unit economics of our Singularity platform and disciplined pricing. In Q3, our operating margin was negative 5%, reflecting a 6-percentage-point improvement compared to the last year. In Q3, we incurred one-time legal settlement costs and legal fees that are included in our non-GAAP financials. Excluding these one-time expenses, our operating margin would have been approximately negative 3%, consistent with our Q3 guidance.

    除了營收成長之外,我們第三季毛利率達到 80%,凸顯了我們 Singularity 平台強大的單位經濟效益和嚴格的定價。第三季度,我們的營業利潤率為負 5%,比去年提高了 6 個百分點。在第三季度,我們產生了一次性法律和解費用和法律費用,這些費用已包含在我們的非公認會計準則財務數據中。排除這些一次性費用,我們的營業利潤率約為負 3%,與我們第三季的指導一致。

  • For the second consecutive quarter, we delivered positive net income. We also achieved positive free cash flow on a trailing 12-month basis for the first time in company history. Importantly, we're on track to achieve positive free cash flow for fiscal year '25. Our steady progress towards sustained profitability is driven by increasing scale, improved operational efficiencies, and disciplined cost management.

    我們連續第二季實現正淨利。我們也在公司歷史上首次實現了過去 12 個月的正自由現金流。重要的是,我們預計在 25 財年實現正的自由現金流。擴大規模、提高營運效率和嚴格的成本管理推動我們在持續獲利方面取得穩步進展。

  • Overall, we've significantly improved our margin and cash flow profile. At the same time, we are strategically investing to expand our market presence and position ourselves for durable growth. These investments are already yielding early results, including increased adoption of our new platform solutions, record wins against our closest competitor, and reacceleration of new business growth. Our unit economics and financial position remains strong with more than $1 billion in cash, cash equivalents and investments and no debt.

    整體而言,我們的利潤率和現金流狀況顯著改善。同時,我們正在進行策略性投資,以擴大我們的市場份額,並為持久成長做好準備。這些投資已經產生了早期成果,包括更多地採用我們的新平台解決方案、創紀錄地擊敗我們最接近的競爭對手,以及重新加速新業務成長。我們的單位經濟和財務狀況仍然強勁,擁有超過 10 億美元的現金、現金等價物和投資,沒有債務。

  • Moving to our guidance for Q4 and fiscal year '25. Given strong net new ARR in Q3 and solid business momentum, we're raising our full year revenue guidance. We now expect full-year revenue of approximately $818 million and growth of 32%, an increase from our prior guidance of $815 million and 31% growth. For Q4, we expect revenue of approximately $222 million, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 27%.

    轉向我們對第四季和 25 財年的指導。鑑於第三季強勁的淨新 ARR 和穩健的業務勢頭,我們正在上調全年營收指引。我們現在預計全年營收約為 8.18 億美元,成長 32%,高於我們先前指引的 8.15 億美元和 31% 成長。對於第四季度,我們預計營收約為 2.22 億美元,年增 27%。

  • We continue to expect stronger net new ARR growth in the second half of fiscal '25 compared to the first half. This outlook is supported by positive trends in new customer acquisition, a healthy pipeline, a solid competitive position, and increasing momentum with our data, cloud, and AI solutions.

    我們繼續預期 25 財年下半年新 ARR 淨成長將較上半年更為強勁。這一前景得到了新客戶獲取的積極趨勢、健康的管道、穩固的競爭地位以及我們的數據、雲端和人工智慧解決方案不斷增長的勢頭的支持。

  • It's also important to note that we're still navigating a challenging macroeconomic environment. Organizations continue to focus on cost and efficiency, and we expect these dynamics to continue. At the same time, the threat landscape remains intense, with frequent headlines about new breaches and evolving cyber threats.

    同樣重要的是要注意,我們仍在應對充滿挑戰的宏觀經濟環境。組織繼續關注成本和效率,我們預計這些動態將持續下去。同時,威脅情況依然嚴峻,有關新漏洞和不斷演變的網路威脅的頭條新聞頻頻出現。

  • Now, turning to the outlook for margins. For the full year, we continue to expect gross margin of approximately 79%, reflecting an improvement of over 150 basis points compared to last year. In Q4, gross margin is also expected to be approximately 79%, an increase of about 100 basis points year over year.

    現在,轉向利潤率前景。我們繼續預計全年毛利率約為 79%,較去年增加 150 個基點以上。第四季毛利率也預計約為79%,年增約100個基點。

  • For fiscal year '25, we expect operating margin of approximately negative 4%. Consistent with the midpoint of our prior guidance, and reflecting an improvement of about 15 percentage points compared to fiscal year '24. In Q4, we expect operating margin to be about negative 3%, and an improvement of approximately 6 percentage points year over year and an increase of 2 percentage points sequentially.

    對於 25 財年,我們預期營業利潤率約為負 4%。與我們先前指導的中點一致,與 24 財年相比提高了約 15 個百分點。我們預期第四季營業利潤率約為負3%,年增約6個百分點,較上季提高2個百分點。

  • Reflecting on my past few months, it's clear we built a solid foundation to take SentinelOne to new heights, from an industry-leading AI security platform to a diverse customer base and robust partner ecosystem. I'm constantly impressed by our talented teams and their dedication to SentinelOne's success.

    回顧過去的幾個月,很明顯,我們為將 SentinelOne 推向新的高度奠定了堅實的基礎,從業界領先的人工智慧安全平台到多元化的客戶群和強大的合作夥伴生態系統。我們才華橫溢的團隊及其對 SentinelOne 成功的奉獻一直給我留下了深刻的印象。

  • We're nearing the milestone of crossing $1 billion in ARR, a significant achievement for any company. As we expand our reach and strengthen our market presence, SentinelOne is well positioned to protect millions more endpoints and secure tens of thousands of additional businesses across the globe.

    我們即將實現 ARR 突破 10 億美元的里程碑,這對任何公司來說都是一項重大成就。隨著我們擴大覆蓋範圍並加強市場佔有率,SentinelOne 已做好充分準備,可以保護數百萬個端點並保護全球數以萬計的其他企業。

  • We remain committed to delivering ongoing leverage in the business as we execute our growth strategy. Our investment approach strikes a thoughtful balance between maximizing long-term growth opportunities and maintaining a strong, responsible, and profitable financial profile, a strategy that's key to scaling SentinelOne to a multibillion-dollar business.

    在執行成長策略時,我們仍然致力於在業務中提供持續的影響力。我們的投資方法在最大化長期成長機會和維持強大、負責任和獲利的財務狀況之間取得了深思熟慮的平衡,而這項策略是將 SentinelOne 擴展到數十億美元業務的關鍵。

  • At the same time, we're instilling operational discipline by identifying ways to enhance efficiency and productivity. Ultimately, our goal is sustainable growth while progressing toward our long-term target of achieving a 20% operating margin over time. One thing remains certain; our unwavering focus on customers, partners, and security has always been and will continue to be the backbone of our success.

    同時,我們透過確定提高效率和生產力的方法來灌輸營運紀律。最終,我們的目標是永續成長,同時逐步實現 20% 營業利益率的長期目標。有一點是確定的:我們對客戶、合作夥伴和安全的堅定關註一直並將繼續成為我們成功的支柱。

  • I'm incredibly proud of the dedication shown by our team and the progress we've made so far. While we've already accomplished a great deal, I'm confident that even greater opportunities lie ahead.

    我對我們團隊所表現出的奉獻精神以及迄今為止所取得的進步感到無比自豪。雖然我們已經取得了巨大成就,但我相信前方還有更大的機會。

  • Thank you for joining us today. I look forward to connecting with our analysts, shareholders, and the broader investment community in the days and months to come.

    感謝您今天加入我們。我期待在未來的幾天和幾個月內與我們的分析師、股東和更廣泛的投資界建立聯繫。

  • Great. Thanks very much, and good to see the ARR momentum continue to build Tomer, over the last few months, you've been very clear that the benefits you're seeing from market disruption and many of the newer growth levers and execution improvements wouldn't all show up immediately in your financials. And the trend is clearly positive from what we can see in Q3 results. But what is it that you see in terms of pipeline and the visibility that you have ahead that gives you confidence in acceleration?

    偉大的。非常感謝,很高興看到 ARR 勢頭繼續增強,Tomer,在過去的幾個月裡,您非常清楚,您從市場顛覆以及許多新的增長槓桿和執行改進中看到的好處將不會”所有這些都會立即顯示在您的財務狀況中。從第三季的結果來看,這一趨勢顯然是正面的。但是,您在管道和未來的可見性方面看到的是什麼讓您對加速充滿信心?

  • And then for Barbara, how does that inform how you might be thinking about next year at this point? Thank you.

  • Well, clearly, the July outage added to the strong momentum we're already experiencing. So we're starting to see the benefits and that includes more customer opportunities, record pipeline, and we're still maintaining the same strong win rates. So that will translate over time.

    嗯,很明顯,七月的停電加劇了我們已經經歷的強勁勢頭。因此,我們開始看到好處,包括更多的客戶機會、創紀錄的管道,而且我們仍然保持同樣強勁的獲勝率。所以這會隨著時間的推移而轉化。

  • In Q3 alone, we've had a record number of wins against our closest competitor. We've added a record number of $100,000-plus customers.

    僅在第三季度,我們就對最接近的競爭對手取得了創紀錄的勝利。我們新增的價值超過 10 萬美元的客戶數量創歷史新高。

  • Our endpoint growth actually accelerated in Q3. So it really indicates the opportunity is improving, not only across our growth lever with emerging products, but really within our core market of endpoint. I mean the momentum on all these fronts drove some incremental upside to the ARR in the quarter, and we believe that's going to continue.

    我們的端點成長實際上在第三季加速了。因此,這確實表明機會正在改善,不僅是在我們新興產品的成長槓桿上,而且是在我們的核心端點市場中。我的意思是,所有這些方面的勢頭推動了本季 ARR 的一些增量上漲,我們相信這種情況將持續下去。

  • Broadly, enterprise is paying more attention to security performance and operational resilience. So I think SentinelOne is proving to be the superior platform offering. It is resulting in more consideration for SentinelOne. It is resulting in bigger deals in the pipeline. It is resulting and just more engagement and it's on us to translate these engagements. It's very encouraging.

    從廣義上講,企業越來越關注安全性能和營運彈性。因此,我認為 SentinelOne 被證明是卓越的平台產品。這導致人們更多地考慮 SentinelOne。這導致了更大的交易正在醞釀中。這是結果,只是更多的參與,而我們有責任轉化這些參與。這非常令人鼓舞。

  • The type of customers that we're seeing the industries that we're serving, the ability to have these conversations, as we mentioned in the prepared remarks, these are conversations we have not had before. So this will be positive for us. It continues to be something we unlock and it's going to translate in the quarters and years to come.

    正如我們在準備好的評論中提到的,我們所服務的行業的客戶類型,進行這些對話的能力,這些是我們以前從未進行過的對話。所以這對我們來說是積極的。它仍然是我們解鎖的東西,並將在未來幾個季度和幾年內轉換。

  • And then Brad, in terms of FY26, it's too early to discuss next year's forecast right now. Our focus is really on executing, innovating and maximizing the opportunity that we have in front of us. But clearly, we are pleased to see the net new ARR reaccelerate in Q3 and deliver a stronger year-over-year growth in the second half compared to the first half.

    Brad,就 2026 財年而言,現在討論明年的預測還為時過早。我們的重點實際上是執行、創新和最大化我們面前的機會。但顯然,我們很高興看到第三季淨新 ARR 重新加速,並在下半年實現比上半年更強勁的同比增長。

Just in terms of seasonality, maybe I missed this, but what was it that actually drove the stronger quarter-over-quarter growth in Q3 this year that was different than prior years? And then, just like how should we think about the sustainability of whatever that driver was?

    偉大的。感謝您提出問題。是的,我同意 Brad 的評論,很高興看到淨新 ARR 回到正值。就季節性而言,也許我錯過了這一點,但實際上是什麼推動了今年第三季度與往年不同的更強勁的季度環比增長?然後,就像我們應該如何考慮驅動因素的可持續性一樣?

  • Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

    Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

  • It's a combination of two main factors, I'd say. One is just the leverage we're seeing with our emerging products. So I think you're seeing more capabilities for us come online, whether it's Purple AI with double the attach rate from past quarters. So that's significant.

    我想說,這是兩個主要因素的結合。其中之一就是我們在新興產品中看到的槓桿作用。所以我認為你會看到我們有更多的功能上線,無論是紫色人工智慧,其附加率是過去幾季的兩倍。所以這很重要。

  • Cloud continues to grow. Data is coming up online. These are all relatively new capabilities for us. So as they come online, we expect bigger lands, we expect bigger deals, and we see that evidence in our pipeline. It was the case going into Q3.

    雲端持續成長。數據正在網路上發布。這些對我們來說都是相對較新的功能。因此,當它們上線時,我們期望有更大的土地,我們期望更大的交易,並且我們在我們的管道中看到了這些證據。進入第三季就是這種情況。

  • And obviously, the other factor is just the July 19 outage. Some of the upside that you're seeing is definitely coming from these customer migrations. We've had more large enterprise displacements than we ever had in the past. So those two, I think, just drove into a very different type of seasonality that we've seen from Q2 to Q3.

    顯然,另一個因素就是 7 月 19 日的停電。您看到的一些好處肯定來自這些客戶遷移。與過去相比,我們經歷了更多的大型企業流離失所。因此,我認為,這兩個因素導致了我們從第二季到第三季看到的一種非常不同的季節性。

  • And we believe that trend will continue, we believe, according to the pipeline that we're seeing that this is something that is sustainable. We will need to translate that, and we'll repeat that. But in terms of the pipeline, it's there and it's for us to work.

    我們相信這種趨勢將繼續下去,我們相信,根據我們看到的管道,這是可持續的。我們需要翻譯它,我們會重複這一點。但就管道而言,它就在那裡,供我們工作。

And then the motion is you're selling, the multiple elements of the platform and where you're seeing the most success there? Thanks.

    偉大的。感謝您回答我的問題。對您在市場上看到的東西以及更大客戶和更大交易的成功感到好奇,我想,第一,只是從宏觀角度來看?然後,你要銷售的動議是平台的多個元素,以及你在哪裡看到最成功的地方?謝謝。

  • Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

    Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

  • Our playbook is definitely evolving. We're lending more with the entire platform or more components of the platform than a single capability than ever before. And I think that is something that is relatively new for us. I think we've always had that motion of upselling and cross-selling and attaching more. But now, it's really clear we're just landing with more we're covering more and that's incredibly important.

    我們的劇本肯定在不斷發展。我們透過整個平台或平台的更多組件提供的貸款比以往任何時候都多於單一功能。我認為這對我們來說是相對較新的事情。我認為我們一直都有追加銷售、交叉銷售和附加更多產品的動議。但現在,很明顯我們正在涵蓋更多內容,這一點非常重要。

  • The dialogue with the largest enterprises out there is also very encouraging. You see that evidenced by the average deal sizes that are on the rise. You see that with a record number of $100,000 and $1 million customers. So our ability to now cater to that higher end of the enterprise, which I believe is gradually being unlocked away from some of these incumbents that were relatively dominant in that part of the market in the past, is going to translate to more presence for SentinelOne in the Fortune 500, in the Fortune 100.

    與最大的企業的對話也非常令人鼓舞。平均交易規模的上升就證明了這一點。您可以看到,10 萬美元和 100 萬美元的客戶數量創歷史新高。因此,我們現在迎合高端企業的能力(我相信這種能力正在逐漸從過去在該市場部分相對占主導地位的一些現有企業中釋放出來)將轉化為 SentinelOne 的更多存在在財富500 強中,在財富100 強。

  • The other capability that we have, which is AI SIEM or the data analytics capability we have, is one that is actually a capability that thrives when the macro is, what the macro is. And I would not say that customers have stopped scrutinizing, I would not say that customers are not very budget oriented, but that actually translates into a very good fit to what our data analytics and data solutions can provide given the immense cost savings that we can create for some of these customers.

    我們擁有的另一種能力,即 AI SIEM 或我們擁有的數據分析能力,實際上是一種在宏觀情況下蓬勃發展的能力。我不會說客戶已經停止審查,我不會說客戶不太注重預算,但這實際上非常適合我們的數據分析和數據解決方案可以提供的功能,因為我們可以節省大量成本為其中一些客戶創建。

  • And obviously, cyber threats are not going away. So the need for best-of-breed security is structurally there. So those two things combined, even in this macro, which I still think is relatively on par with what we've seen in the past couple of years, it bodes well to our market motion.

    顯然,網路威脅不會消失。因此,從結構上來說,對最佳安全性的需求是存在的。因此,將這兩件事結合起來,即使在這個宏觀經濟中,我仍然認為與我們過去幾年所看到的情況相當,這對我們的市場走勢來說是個好兆頭。

  • Okay. Great, guys. Thanks for taking my questions here. Barbara, maybe just to start with you. Tomer talked about broadening the market presence with the Lenovo partnership. And it sounds really interesting. Maybe the question is, how do you think about Lenovo contributing to net new ARR? Specifically, when does that sort of kick in? And is this going to be something that ebbs and flows with Lenovo shipments sort of on a quarterly basis? Or talk to us about sort of how that layers into the model going forward?

    好的。太棒了,夥計們。感謝您在這裡提出我的問題。芭芭拉,也許只是從你開始。托默談到了透過與聯想合作擴大市場份額。聽起來真的很有趣。也許問題是,您如何看待聯想對淨新ARR的貢獻?具體來說,這種情況什麼時候開始?這是否會隨著聯想出貨量的季度波動而改變?或與我們談談如何將其分層到未來的模型中?

  • Barbara Larson - Chief Financial Officer

    Barbara Larson - Chief Financial Officer

  • Sure. Thanks so much for the question. In terms of Lenovo, it is a multiyear agreement. We're in the early innings. We're really excited about its long-term potential. This is a strategic partnership; it's designed to evolve over time. We're working closely with Lenovo to activate multiple routes to market. That includes pre-installations, as well as managed security offerings.

    當然。非常感謝您的提問。對聯想來說,這是一份多年協議。我們正處於早期幾局。我們對其長期潛力感到非常興奮。這是一種策略合作夥伴關係;它被設計為隨著時間的推移而發展。我們正在與聯想密切合作,以激活多種市場途徑。這包括預先安裝以及託管安全產品。

  • It also builds on the fact that we have an existing reseller agreement today. So we're really extending deepening our collaboration and we expect the contribution to pick up in the latter part of next year in terms of revenue as Lenovo starts to ship preinstalled units and as we ramp up [cosell] through all of our regions. So I'm not going to talk to specifics on deal and ARR, but that's how we're thinking about it in terms of the contribution to revenue, latter half of next year.

    它也建立在我們今天擁有現有經銷商協議的事實之上。因此,我們確實正在深化我們的合作,隨著聯想開始運送預裝設備以及我們在所有地區增加 [cosell],我們預計明年下半年收入貢獻將會上升。因此,我不會談論交易和 ARR 的具體細節,但這就是我們在明年下半年對收入貢獻的思考方式。

  • Thank you. Hi. Good afternoon. Tomer, Barbara, so I know you slightly raised your annual guidance. I know you guys do not guide or discuss RPO metrics. It was up, I believe, 24% year over year, which I think would imply maybe a deceleration from last year and think just a 4% sequential growth. Can you talk to us about RPO trends maybe your thoughts on pricing and contract duration? Thank you.

    謝謝。你好。午安.托默、芭芭拉,我知道你們略微提升了年度指導。我知道你們不會指導或討論 RPO 指標。我相信,它同比增長了 24%,我認為這可能意味著比去年有所減速,並且環比增長僅為 4%。您能否與我們談談 RPO 趨勢,或者您對定價和合約期限的看法?謝謝。

  • Barbara Larson - Chief Financial Officer

    Barbara Larson - Chief Financial Officer

  • Sure. Great. I'll take that. So for RPO in Q3, we delivered strong year-over-year growth of 25%. So that's relatively in line with our total ARR growth.

    當然。偉大的。我會接受的。因此,對於第三季的 RPO,我們實現了 25% 的強勁同比增長。因此,這與我們的總 ARR 成長相對一致。

  • Just to keep in mind, in Q3 of last year, we signed several large long-term contracts, including with several of our MSSPs, making this a more difficult year-over-year comparison. So our preferred metric is ARR as RPO can be impacted by contract duration, and ARR removes that variability.

    請記住,去年第三季度,我們簽署了幾份大型長期合同,包括與我們的幾個 MSSP 簽訂的合同,這使得同比比較變得更加困難。因此,我們的首選指標是 ARR,因為 RPO 可能會受到合約期限的影響,而 ARR 消除了這種可變性。

    Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

  • And just in terms of pricing, I think the ability to sell a full platform right now really changes how you think about pricing. There's no longer a specific price point in the market. Our prices have held steady. You see that reflected in our gross margin, which is definitely best of breed in the market.

    就定價而言,我認為現在銷售完整平台的能力確實改變了您對定價的看法。市場上不再有特定的價格點。我們的價格一直保持穩定。您可以看到我們的毛利率反映了這一點,這絕對是市場上最好的。

  • We're seeing, and I think for the past few years, I've always seen a player or a number of players just go heavy on discounts. So I don't think there's anything out of the ordinary in the way that this market has evolved over the years. I don't think there's anything too different right now. There's definitely more discounting by vendors who are maybe a bit more mindful of the need to preserve their customers and they're using deep discounts in order to do that.

    我們看到,我認為在過去的幾年裡,我總是看到一個或多個玩家只享受大量折扣。因此,我認為這個市場多年來的發展方式沒有什麼不尋常的地方。我不認為現在有什麼太大的不同。供應商肯定會提供更多折扣,他們可能更注重保留客戶的需要,並且他們正在使用大幅折扣來做到這一點。

  • We, on the other hand, have always been flexible, transparent with our pricing and we continue to be that way. It doesn't stop us from making deals and in many cases, especially in the markets that we play in, price is not the dominant factor. And we always are incredibly focused on the value that we bring and the cost savings that we can extract.

    另一方面,我們的定價一直保持靈活、透明,並且我們將繼續如此。這並不能阻止我們進行交易,而且在許多情況下,特別是在我們參與的市場中,價格並不是主導因素。我們始終非常關注我們帶來的價值以及我們可以節省的成本。

  • So all in all, we're focused on maintaining our pricing. It hasn't changed. Gross margin is very high. is just the realities of the cybersecurity market when it comes down to the different discounting by different vendors.

    總而言之,我們的重點是維持我們的定價。它沒有改變。毛利率非常高。當涉及到不同供應商的不同折扣時,這就是網路安全市場的現實。

  • Yes, hi. How important is vendor financing in the market now? I'm asking it because we've seen Palo Alto doing it very aggressively. Now, we're seeing CrowdStrike starting it. Is this something that is required, or do you see higher requirement by customers?

    是的,嗨。現在市面上的供應商融資有多重要?我這麼問是因為我們看到帕洛阿爾託在這方面做得非常激進。現在,我們看到 CrowdStrike 正在啟動它。這是必需的,還是您認為客戶有更高的要求?

  • And the second question is just clarification. You noted a few times that you expect a strong net new ARR for 4Q. Is there any number that you have in mind or any growth you have in mind for a net new ARR for 4Q?Thanks.

  • As for financing, we don't think that it's something that is showing any outside demand right now. Financing has been always very apparent in this space, typically done by channel partners. A lot of our channel partners are helping financing customers. We do it every now and then. I do believe that the focus for every subsequent vendor needs to be on the current capabilities that customers need today.

    至於融資,我們認為目前還沒有表現出任何外部需求。融資在這個領域一直非常明顯,通常由通路夥伴完成。我們的許多通路合作夥伴正在幫助客戶融資。我們時不時地這樣做。我確實相信,每個後續供應商都需要專注於客戶目前所需的當前功能。

  • A lot of these financing commitment deals that you're seeing out there are really dealing with futures. They really aiming toward the future possible consumption capabilities that may or may not happen.

    您看到的許多融資承諾交易實際上都涉及期貨。他們真正的目標是未來可能發生也可能不會發生的消費能力。

  • For SentinelOne, we're very focused on giving customers what they need right now. If customers require any sort of financing, which I've not seen any uptick of we typically work with a set of partners that can facilitate that. So all in all, as a as you're flexible is obviously working with the customer desired ramp. I think there is no need to do anything out of the ordinary.

    對於 SentinelOne,我們非常專注於為客戶提供他們現在所需的東西。如果客戶需要任何形式的融資(我沒有看到任何形式的融資),我們通常會與一組可以促進這一點的合作夥伴合作。總而言之,作為一個靈活的人,顯然是在滿足客戶所需的需求。我認為沒有必要做任何不尋常的事情。

  • As for net new ARR, we still maintain that we have great momentum. We still maintain that for the second half of the year, we are going to be growth positive. So all in all, that's what I can share on net new ARR for Q4.

    至於淨新ARR,我們仍然認為我們有強勁的勢頭。我們仍然認為下半年將實現正成長。總而言之,這就是我可以在第四季度的淨新 ARR 上分享的內容。

  • Hi, good afternoon, and thank you for taking the question, and great to see the reacceleration on ARR. I have two questions.

    大家好,下午好,感謝您提出問題,很高興看到 ARR 重新加速。我有兩個問題。

  • I guess first one for Tomer. You've talked previously about a focus on new logo adds over expansion within the installed base. But maybe if you could help us understand where are you keeping your foot off the gas, so to speak, with regard to investing in expansion within the installed base where there's cross-sell upsell and how you think about prioritization or what you're holding back on as you invest in new logo growth?

    我想第一個是給托默的。您之前談到了對新徽標添加的關注,而不是對已安裝基礎的擴充功能的關注。但也許您可以幫助我們了解您在哪裡保持警惕,可以這麼說,關於投資現有客戶群的擴張,其中存在交叉銷售和追加銷售,以及您如何看待優先級或您所持有的東西當你投資新標誌的成長時,你會回來嗎?

  • And maybe the follow-up for Barbara, with regard to just the one-time legal settlement costs in the non-GAAP financials, maybe expand on that a little bit, help us understand what they're for? And maybe why those point back to non-GAAP? Thank you.

    也許芭芭拉的後續行動,關於非公認會計原則財務中的一次性法律和解成本,也許可以稍微擴展一下,幫助我們理解它們的用途?也許為什麼這些又指向非公認會計準則?謝謝。

  • Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

    Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

  • Sure. We're not really holding back on anything. I just think that we're letting certain things kind of come online at their own natural time. Obviously, we still want the majority of our sellers focused on adding new accounts to our estate. So if there is one piece where we're I would say, less focused on driving right now is that upsell and cross sell within the customer base in, I would say, adjacent footprints. And that to us is something that will gradually start to unlock itself as we put more and more playbooks and frameworks into next year.

    當然。我們並沒有真正阻止任何事情。我只是認為我們讓某些事情在其自然的時間上線。顯然,我們仍然希望大多數賣家專注於為我們的房產添加新帳戶。因此,如果我們現在有一個不太關注的領域,那就是在客戶群內進行追加銷售和交叉銷售,我想說的是,相鄰的足跡。對我們來說,隨著我們明年投入越來越多的劇本和框架,這一點將逐漸開始釋放出來。

  • So expect that at some point, becoming another growth lever for us. It's very clear that our customers state is underpenetrated with our adjacent solutions, especially if you look at our core endpoint estate, and that represents an opportunity, revenue opportunity not only for end customers, but also for MSSP partners, OEM partners, many partners that resell our software will have the ability to expand into new markets.

    因此,預計在某個時候,它將成為我們的另一個成長槓桿。很明顯,我們的客戶狀態對我們的相鄰解決方案的滲透不足,特別是如果您查看我們的核心端點資產,這不僅為最終客戶,而且為MSSP 合作夥伴、OEM 合作夥伴以及許多合作夥伴提供了機會和收入機會。

  • But with that, as I mentioned, the focus of our sellers is going after new accounts, it's going after competitive accounts with any capability. So we don't really discriminate I'd say, between end point or cloud or data analytics, whatever the customer needs and lever the account would prescribe is where we go in and where we try to usher more value. So that to us, and you see that evident in the quarter as well, has been the motion.

    但正如我所提到的,我們賣家的重點是追求新帳戶,追求具有任何能力的有競爭力的帳戶。因此,我想說,在端點、雲端或資料分析之間,我們並沒有真正的歧視,無論客戶需要什麼,帳戶會規定什麼槓桿,都是我們進入的地方,也是我們試圖帶來更多價值的地方。因此,對我們來說,這項動議在本季也很明顯。

  • The dominant part of ARR is coming from new accounts. It's what we want to see, but we are gradually starting to balance that with our desire to also become more efficient with our go-to-market motion. And obviously, selling into your own customer state is a more efficient go-to-market. So those two things will start showing more impact in the next couple of years.

    ARR 的主要部分來自新帳戶。這是我們希望看到的,但我們正逐漸開始平衡這一點與我們希望透過進入市場的行動變得更有效率的願望。顯然,向自己的客戶所在國銷售是一種更有效的市場進入方式。因此,這兩件事將在未來幾年開始顯現出更大的影響。

  • And with regards to Q3 operating margin, as I noted in my prepared remarks, this was impacted by onetime legal settlement costs and legal fees of a few million dollars. Excluding these, our margin would have been negative 3%, so in line with our Q3 guidance. These legal costs were associated with past M&A activity. And during the quarter, we proactively made the decision to settle in order to avoid lengthy litigation and also minimize the overall legal costs going forward.

    至於第三季的營業利潤率,正如我在準備好的發言中指出的那樣,這是受到一次性法律和解成本和數百萬美元法律費用的影響。排除這些,我們的利潤率將為負 3%,因此符合我們第三季的指導。這些法律費用與過去的併購活動有關。在本季度,我們主動做出了和解決定,以避免冗長的訴訟,並最大限度地減少未來的整體法律成本。

In terms of our guidance philosophy, I would just say, overall, it's to set clear and reasonable expectations that reflects the potential we see in the business, and we based that guidance on what we have line of sight to and what's in our control, things like pipeline activity, contributions from new products, and anticipated conversion and win rates.

    是的,當然。就我們的指導理念而言,我只想說,總體而言,它是設定清晰合理的期望,反映我們在業務中看到的潛力,並且我們的指導基於我們的視線和我們控制的內容,例如管道活動、新產品的貢獻以及預期的轉換率和獲勝率。

  • Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

    Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

  • And when we look at budgets, I think what customers are currently focused on is still very much cost savings. And I think that if you look at most prominent cybersecurity platform providers. It's very clear that it's not only about expanding their presence. It's also about creating cost synergies.

    當我們考慮預算時,我認為客戶目前關注的仍然是節省大量成本。我認為如果你看看最著名的網路安全平台提供者。很明顯,這不僅僅是為了擴大他們的影響力。它還涉及創造成本協同效應。

  • Customers are looking for capabilities to fend off AI-based threats, which is a complete new threat vector from the past couple of years. Those capabilities are becoming mandatory. So customers are looking to invest into solutions that can not only fend off these threats, but really modernize infrastructure as they think about the speed of response and the need to become more resilient, more robust, and fend off any type of disruption.

    客戶正在尋求抵禦基於人工智慧的威脅的能力,這是過去幾年出現的全新威脅向量。這些能力正在變得強制性。因此,客戶希望投資的解決方案不僅能夠抵禦這些威脅,而且能夠真正實現基礎設施現代化,因為他們考慮到響應速度以及變得更有彈性、更強大並抵禦任何類型中斷的需要。

  • So all in all, I would say customers are looking at spending much like they looked at it in the past couple of years. I think there is more emphasis on the ability for certain vendors and certain technologies to actually create cost savings, and that we're also focused where we believe a cloud-native solution set can create significant synergies versus some of the incumbent solutions that you have today, whether on-premise or converted into the cloud, they cannot perform as well as cloud native capabilities.

    總而言之,我想說,客戶對支出的看法與過去幾年的看法很相似。我認為,人們更加重視某些供應商和某些技術實際節省成本的能力,並且我們也關注我們認為雲端原生解決方案集可以與您擁有的一些現有解決方案相比產生顯著協同效應的地方如今,無論是在本地還是轉換到雲端中,它們的效能都無法達到雲端原生功能。

  • Thanks for taking the question, and congrats on the results. Tomer, for you, I think you talked about more enterprise displacements than ever in the past this quarter. Can you talk about whether pipeline supports continued momentum there, maybe how pricing and discounting are behaving specifically in those conversations? And then on the flip side of that, how are you seeing your ability to win change, if at all, since July 19 in the 50% of the market that is still leveraging legacy AV? Thanks.

    感謝您提出問題,並對結果表示祝賀。托默,對於您來說,我認為您在本季度談到的企業裁員比以往任何時候都多。您能否談談管道是否支持那裡的持續勢頭,也許定價和折扣在這些對話中具體表現如何?另一方面,自 7 月 19 日以來,在 50% 的市場中仍在利用傳統 AV 的情況下,您如何看待自己贏得變革的能力(如果有的話)?謝謝。

  • Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

    Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

  • I mean, we fully believe that the pipeline supports the continued upward trends into enterprise -- into the enterprise market. There is no question that some of the dialogues that we're having are of a different magnitude of the dialogues we've been having in the past. I think that trusting for us has always been our strong suit.

    我的意思是,我們完全相信該管道支持企業市場的持續上升趨勢。毫無疑問,我們正在進行的一些對話與我們過去進行的對話的規模不同。我認為對我們的信任一直是我們的強項。

  • I think we were always able to play almost at any price point and specifically around endpoint protection. It's not an issue for us to match anybody in the market; it never has been. And you still see us operate throughout the years at around the 79% to 80% gross margin, which is obviously best-of-breed.

    我認為我們總是能夠在幾乎任何價位上進行遊戲,特別是在端點保護方面。對我們來說,與市場上的任何人競爭都不是問題;從來沒有。你仍然會看到我們多年來的毛利率在 79% 到 80% 左右,這顯然是同類中最好的。

  • So as we look into next year, we're going to continue to be aggressive. We're going to continue to sustain our gross margin, and we're going to continue having our average contract size be on the rise. I mean, for us, that has been, and we've talked about it, that has been a point of focus. And we believe next year could be quite transformative in that regard.

    因此,當我們展望明年時,我們將繼續積極進取。我們將繼續維持毛利率,並且我們的平均合約規模將繼續上升。我的意思是,對我們來說,這一直是一個焦點,我們已經討論過了。我們相信明年在這方面可能會發生很大的變化。

  • We mentioned in the prepared remarks, some of the largest financial institutions, some of the largest companies in the world are looking for ways to address some of the shortcomings that they see with other platforms.

    我們在準備好的演講中提到,世界上一些最大的金融機構、一些最大的公司正在尋找方法來解決他們在其他平台上看到的一些缺點。

  • I think they look at SentinelOne, they see a technology leader, leading MITRE for four years in a row is no easy fit. And I think you're going to see that carry on into the future. So it's not only about pricing. It's not only about the July 19 outage. It's about crystallizing the technology leadership that SentinelOne has, especially as it pertains to AI capabilities and you see that evidence both in the acceleration with endpoint protection market share and both with the attach with Purple AI, these are obviously pointing you in a certain direction of where we're seeing the most traction.

    我認為他們看到了 SentinelOne,他們看到了一個技術領導者,連續四年領先 MITRE 並不容易。我想你會看到這種情況在未來繼續下去。所以這不只是定價的問題。這不僅與 7 月 19 日的停電有關。這是為了具體化SentinelOne 所擁有的技術領先地位,特別是在人工智慧功能方面,您會看到端點保護市場份額加速成長以及與Purple AI 的結合的證據,這些顯然都為您指明了某個方向:我們看到最具吸引力的地方。

  • Great. Thanks for taking my question. Again, great execution on the net new ARR. Tomer, well as Barbara, mentioned ARR per customer, of course, hit a new high this quarter driven, of course, by success in large enterprise and highlighted cross-sell upsell. Could you help unpack how perhaps macro factors like the constrained IT budgets and also the outage dynamic that influences sales in size? Is there a dynamic of potentially larger deals affecting cycles getting a bit longer? Then I have a quick follow-up here.

    偉大的。感謝您提出我的問題。再次強調,新 ARR 網路的執行力非常出色。 Tomer 和 Barbara 提到,當然,每位客戶的 ARR 在本季度創下了新高,這當然是由大型企業的成功和強調的交叉銷售追加銷售推動的。您能否幫助我們了解宏觀因素(例如有限的 IT 預算以及中斷動態)如何影響銷售規模?是否存在潛在的較大交易的動態影響週期變得更長一些?然後我在這裡進行快速跟進。

  • Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

    Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

  • I think largely, the macro factors are relatively similar. I don't think there's any meaningful or material change in the macro factors or how customers are thinking about those. I also would encourage everybody to kind of think about the July 19 outage is just another factor. I mean, it's not what's driving business for SentinelOne.

    我認為很大程度上,宏觀因素是相對相似的。我認為宏觀因素或客戶對這些因素的看法沒有任何有意義或實質的變化。我還鼓勵大家想想 7 月 19 日的停電只是另一個因素。我的意思是,這並不是 SentinelOne 業務的驅動力。

  • SentinelOne's momentum is what driving the business. The technology we have is what's driving the business. I think this is just more just more consideration that results in. The conversations we're having are ones that allow us to showcase our technology first and foremost. And I think that's the most important part. And as customers see what we can bring to the table I think this is where you're starting to feel more at ease to move away from their incumbent solutions.

    SentinelOne 的動力是業務的推動力。我們擁有的技術是業務的驅動力。我認為這只是更多考慮的結果。我認為這是最重要的部分。當客戶看到我們可以提供什麼時,我認為這就是您開始更輕鬆地放棄現有解決方案的地方。

  • Now, to your point, larger deals do mean larger and longer sales cycles. And that, I think, is what we're looking at. This is not a new phenomenon for us. I mean, we have been doing large deals in the past. We're just seeing more and more of those. But we're balancing all of those, I think, with the growth of the business, we're balancing all of those with our wins at any part of this market.

    現在,就您的觀點而言,更大的交易確實意味著更大和更長的銷售週期。我認為這就是我們正在關注的。這對我們來說並不是一個新現象。我的意思是,我們過去一直在做大交易。我們看到這樣的情況越來越多。但我認為,隨著業務的成長,我們正在平衡所有這些,我們正在平衡所有這些與我們在這個市場任何部分的勝利。

  • So all in all, to me, this is a complete net positive for us. And while sales cycles will take time, we will translate those and we will consider those one of the most strategic elements of our plan going into next year is obviously, it accelerates and catapults our position in the large enterprise market.

    總而言之,對我來說,這對我們來說是完全積極的。雖然銷售週期需要時間,但我們將轉化這些,我們將考慮進入明年的計劃中最具戰略意義的要素之一,顯然,它會加速並提升我們在大型企業市場中的地位。

  • Thank you for some color on that point. Tomer, on that point, it does take time, right? There's sales cycles and especially for the enterprise. But for the SMB and the mid-market, you talked a lot about the enterprise, those sales cycles are a lot shorter. Now, the results this quarter indicate improving momentum for the business. Obviously, there's some investors, I guess, might have expected a little more, but it does indicate that. Can you comment on how the SMB/mid-market performed this quarter?

    謝謝你在這一點上的一些顏色。托默,在這一點上,確實需要時間,對嗎?銷售週期是存在的,尤其是對於企業而言。但對於中小企業和中端市場,你談到了很多關於企業的問題,這些銷售週期要短得多。現在,本季的業績顯示該業務的勢頭有所改善。顯然,我猜有些投資者的預期可能會更高一些,但這確實表明了這一點。您能否評論一下中小企業/中階市場本季的表現?

  • Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

    Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

  • Yeah. It's performing well. I mean, I think that we're definitely seeing even increased momentum there. I think we're seeing our MSSP partners continue to grow in a very strong way. So I think it does contribute all across the board. I can't, I would say, pinpoint exactly what is outage-driven versus our own innate momentum. But at the end of the day, we are seeing benefits pretty much everywhere. I mean, both geographically and across the different verticals in the market. Whether we want to see less or more, I think we always want to see more.

    是的。它的表現很好。我的意思是,我認為我們肯定會看到那裡的勢頭增強。我認為我們看到我們的 MSSP 合作夥伴繼續以非常強勁的方式發展。所以我認為它確實對各個方面都有貢獻。我想說,我無法準確指出什麼是停電驅動的,什麼是我們自身固有的動力。但歸根結底,我們幾乎到處都看到了好處。我的意思是,無論是在地理上還是在市場的不同垂直領域。無論我們想看到更少還是更多,我認為我們總是希望看到更多。

  • But as I mentioned, our focus is really on extracting more in the enterprise. The MSSP ecosystem for us is one that's more self-driven. The same goes for kind of the SMB dynamics that we're seeing. But even there, I think we're just seeing better win rates and some acceleration. Again, endpoint is one of these very, I would say, core established markets. So when you see an acceleration in that market specifically, years into this journey, I mean, that's very, very encouraging.

    但正如我所提到的,我們的重點實際上是在企業中獲取更多利益。對我們來說,MSSP 生態系統是一個更自我驅動的生態系統。我們所看到的中小企業動態也是如此。但即便如此,我認為我們也只是看到了更好的勝率和一些加速。我想說,端點是這些非常核心的成熟市場之一。因此,當你看到這個市場在經歷數年的加速發展時,我的意思是,這是非常非常令人鼓舞的。

In the shareholder letter, you talked about kind of expanding the potential of products within the MSSP specifically around CNAPP. Is there a reason or kind of can you help us understand maybe a little bit more detail as to kind of why it's a more gradual release of products within that space?

  • If it's more just not wanting those partners to get to over their skis in terms of the technical requirements and enablement or some other kind of limiting factor and why not just, I guess, let them go kind of more just broadly all at once on the platform? Just help us kind of understand those dynamics, that would be great. Thanks.

    Tomer Weingarten - Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder

  • Of course. It's honestly, I mean, more in our hands. We just need to enable them more. We also need to make sure that these products adhere to that multi-tenanted approach that we've had over years in kind of the endpoint market. So we're adapting certain elements of our playbook, certain elements of our training to make sure that our products are the right fit for that part of the market.

    當然。老實說,我的意思是,這更掌握在我們手中。我們只需要為他們提供更多支援。我們還需要確保這些產品遵循我們多年來在端點市場所採用的多租戶方法。因此,我們正在調整我們的行動手冊中的某些元素和培訓中的某些元素,以確保我們的產品適合該部分市場。

  • I mean, arguably, not every capability that we have is as prevalent in that segment of the market as endpoint was and is. So it's really about making sure that we give customers, the end customers and obviously, the partners themselves the capabilities that they need, but it's on us to enable them.

    我的意思是,可以說,並不是我們擁有的每一項功能都像端點過去和現在一樣在該細分市場中流行。因此,這實際上是為了確保我們為客戶、最終客戶,當然還有合作夥伴本身提供他們所需的能力,但我們有責任幫助他們實現這些能力。

  • It's on us to help them articulate the value proposition for these types of customers, and it will happen over time. We have expanded our MSSP team just this past quarter in a pretty significant way, and we're now working to extract more both from our data lake technology in the MSSP market as well as Purple AI.

    我們有責任幫助他們為這些類型的客戶闡明價值主張,隨著時間的推移,這將會實現。就在上個季度,我們以相當大的方式擴大了我們的 MSSP 團隊,現在我們正在努力從 MSSP 市場的數據湖技術以及 Purple AI 中獲取更多資訊。

  • Both of those, we believe, are the best fit for that part of the market, even above and beyond, let's say, CNAPP capabilities. So it's really about what you feel is going to generate the most traction in that segment of the market, which is obviously a bit different than selling to a large enterprise. Obviously, the amount of workloads they have is different, the amount of staff, they have a different -- the amount of automation. They [require] is different. So all of those we are adjusting. We're making sure that we have the best fit possible in these markets and then we will continue to enable these partners to succeed.

    我們相信,這兩者都是最適合該部分市場的,甚至超越了 CNAPP 的能力。所以這實際上是關於你認為什麼會在該市場領域產生最大的吸引力,這顯然與向大型企業銷售有些不同。顯然,他們的工作量、員工數量、自動化程度都不同。他們[要求]不同。所以我們正在調整所有這些。我們確保我們在這些市場中擁有最佳的選擇,然後我們將繼續幫助這些合作夥伴取得成功。
