Strong near-term guidance and long-term outlook reinforce growth ambitions
Salesforce (CRM) outlined an ambitious long-term growth target, projecting fiscal 2030 revenue of $63 billion, signaling continued confidence in its cloud software and AI-driven strategy.
Alongside its long-term outlook, Salesforce issued fiscal 2027 guidance that was largely in line with analyst expectations. The company expects adjusted earnings per share between $13.11 and $13.19, compared with the consensus estimate of $13.12. Revenue for fiscal 2027 is projected to range between $45.8 billion and $46.2 billion, bracketing analyst expectations of $46.05 billion.
On a GAAP basis, Salesforce forecast fiscal 2027 earnings per share between $7.85 and $7.93, slightly below the $8.37 estimate. While GAAP figures reflect ongoing investments and stock-based compensation, the adjusted outlook suggests stable operating performance and disciplined cost management.
For the upcoming first quarter, Salesforce expects adjusted earnings per share of $3.11 to $3.13, ahead of the $3.00 analyst estimate. First-quarter revenue is projected between $11.03 billion and $11.08 billion, slightly above expectations of $10.99 billion. GAAP earnings per share for the quarter are forecast at $1.77 to $1.79, roughly in line with consensus estimates.
The company’s guidance reflects steady enterprise demand for customer relationship management (CRM) solutions, cloud services, and AI-powered productivity tools. Salesforce has increasingly emphasized artificial intelligence integration across its platform, aiming to deepen customer engagement and drive higher-margin recurring revenue streams.
By setting a $63 billion revenue target for fiscal 2030, Salesforce is signaling long-term confidence in its ability to expand market share and capitalize on digital transformation trends. Investors will now focus on execution, margin discipline, and continued AI monetization as the company works toward its multi-year growth objectives.
