Snowflake Shares Plummet Despite Beating Earnings Estimates

Decelerating Product Revenue Growth Raises Concerns Among Investors

Shares of Snowflake (SNOW) tumbled over 14% on Thursday, following the release of its fiscal second-quarter 2025 earnings report. Despite surpassing Wall Street’s revenue expectations, the company’s decelerating product revenue growth has raised concerns among investors and analysts alike.

Earnings Beat but Growth Slows

Snowflake reported $869 million in total revenue for the quarter, surpassing the $851 million expected by analysts polled by LSEG. The company’s product revenue, which constitutes the majority of its sales, reached $829.3 million—a 30% increase year-over-year. However, this growth represents a slowdown from the 34% year-over-year growth reported in the previous quarter, sparking concerns about the company’s growth trajectory.

In addition to slowing revenue growth, Snowflake’s net loss widened to $317 million, or 95 cents per share, compared to a net loss of $227 million, or 69 cents per share, during the same period last year. The combination of decelerating growth and widening losses has left investors questioning the company’s near-term prospects.

Analyst Reactions: Good, But Not Enough

Morgan Stanley analysts noted that while Snowflake’s results were solid, they were “perhaps not enough” to reassure investors. The deceleration in product revenue growth, particularly the 2% beat in Q2 compared to the 5% beat in Q1, has introduced uncertainty into the investor conversation. The analysts pointed out that Snowflake’s product revenue growth dipping to 29.5% year-over-year in the latest quarter could keep the stock under pressure in the near term.

Barclays analysts echoed similar sentiments, stating that Snowflake’s second-quarter results were unlikely to serve as a major catalyst for the stock, either positively or negatively. They maintained an “equal weight” rating on the stock, indicating a neutral stance.

Cyberattack Concerns and Future Prospects

A significant focus for investors this quarter was whether Snowflake’s product revenue would suffer due to potential fallout from a cyberattack and a CrowdStrike outage that occurred during the period. However, analysts noted that these potential headwinds did not have a material impact on the company’s revenue, which they viewed as a positive sign.

Looking ahead, Morgan Stanley analysts believe that Snowflake’s new generative artificial intelligence (AI) portfolio could eventually drive top-line outperformance. However, they cautioned that in the near term, the company will need to rely on its core data warehousing business to maintain growth. This reliance on core offerings, coupled with the current growth deceleration, may limit the stock’s upward momentum.

Investor Sentiment and Outlook

Snowflake’s slower product revenue growth has caused some investors to question the company’s valuation and growth potential, especially in a competitive market. While a 30% year-over-year increase in product revenue is still commendable, the deceleration from previous quarters has sown doubt among market participants. This uncertainty is reflected in the significant drop in Snowflake’s stock price following the earnings report.

Despite the current challenges, some analysts remain cautiously optimistic about Snowflake’s long-term prospects, particularly with the potential contributions from its generative AI initiatives. However, until these new offerings begin to significantly impact the company’s financial performance, Snowflake may continue to face headwinds in the stock market.

Snowflake’s fiscal second-quarter 2025 earnings report highlights the challenges of sustaining high growth in a competitive environment. While the company managed to beat revenue expectations, the deceleration in product revenue growth has cast a shadow over its future prospects. As Snowflake navigates these challenges, investor sentiment may remain mixed, with the stock likely to experience continued volatility in the near term.
