Financial Highlights:

• Revenue of $1.39 billion in the first quarter, representing 33% year-over-year growth
• Net revenue retention rate of 126%
• 779 customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, representing 29% year-over-year growth

MENLO PARK, Calif. - May 27, 2026 - Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW), the AI Data Cloud company, today announced financial results for its first quarter of fiscal 2027, ended April 30, 2026.

"Snowflake delivered a milestone quarter, with product revenue of $1.33 billion, up 34% year-over-year, marking the strongest sequential dollar growth in our history,” said Sridhar Ramaswamy, CEO of Snowflake. “AI continues to be a powerful tailwind for Snowflake, and Q1 marks a clear inflection point in that journey. With Cortex Code and Snowflake Intelligence, we are extending from the trusted foundation for enterprise data and context to become the control plane for the Agentic Enterprise. We are seeing strong momentum from both AI-driven acceleration of our core platform and growing adoption of our first-party AI products, positioning Snowflake to lead in this new era."

“AI continues to accelerate our core data platform business as customers move to Snowflake with increasing urgency,” said Brian Robins, CFO of Snowflake. “We now have 779 customers spending more than $1 million on a trailing 12-month basis, 46 of which crossed the threshold in Q1, compared to 26 a year ago. Given the strong momentum across both our core platform business and AI business, we are raising our full-year product revenue guidance.”

Snowflake Business Highlights:

• AI Momentum: New customers like Holiday Inn Club Vacations and Houzz chose Snowflake as the cornerstone of their data and AI transformation, and more than 13,600 accounts¹ are now using Snowflake AI capabilities. Accounts using Snowflake Intelligence¹ more than doubled quarter-over-quarter, while Cortex Code is already in use across over 7,100 accounts¹. These innovations contributed to the strongest sequential product revenue dollar growth in company history.
• Customer Growth and Expansion: Added 616 net new customers in the quarter, up 38% year-over-year, including 13 new Forbes Global 2000 customers.
• Accelerated Product Velocity: Delivered over 20% more product capabilities than a year ago, including new features across Cortex Code and Snowflake Intelligence, underscoring the pace of innovation and continued expansion of the platform.
• Expanded Partnerships: Expanded collaboration with AWS through a new $6 billion multi-year agreement designed to accelerate enterprise AI adoption globally. The company also deepened its partnership with OpenAI to deliver advanced AI capabilities through co-innovation and joint go-to-market efforts, and brought capabilities from its landmark SAP partnership to general availability.
• AI Acquisition: Signed a definitive agreement in May 2026 to acquire Natoma, an enterprise Model Context Protocol platform for AI agents, to make it easier for users to securely connect AI to the tools they use every day, directly within and beyond Snowflake. By extending governance to AI-driven workflows, Snowflake makes it easier for companies to safely manage not just their data, but also the actions AI agents take across business workflows.

¹ The average of the last 4 weeks of the quarter ended April 30, 2026, counted based on capacity and on-demand accounts using the respective features on a weekly basis via our internal classification.

Financial Outlook:

Our guidance includes GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures.

For the second quarter of fiscal 2027, the company expects:

• Product revenue of $1,415 million to $1,420 million, representing 30% year-over-year growth
• Non-GAAP operating margin² of 12.5%
• Non-GAAP weighted-average shares used in computing net income per share attributable to common stockholders—diluted2,3,4 of 375 million

For the full-year of fiscal 2027, the company expects:

• Product revenue of $5,840 million, representing 31% year-over-year growth, up from previous guidance of $5,660 million, or 27% year-over-year growth
• Non-GAAP product gross margin² of 75.0%
• Non-GAAP operating margin² of 13.5%, up from previous guidance of 12.5%
• Non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow margin² of 23.0%
• Non-GAAP weighted-average shares used in computing net income per share attributable to common stockholders—diluted2,3,4 of 376 million

A reconciliation of GAAP guidance measures to corresponding non-GAAP guidance measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. These factors could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP. Our fiscal year ends January 31, and numbers are rounded for presentation purposes.

² We report non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. See the section titled “Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for an explanation of non-GAAP financial measures.

³ The potential impact of future repurchases under our stock repurchase program is not reflected in our guidance for weighted-average shares used in computing net income per share attributable to common stockholders—diluted due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, the timing and amount of repurchases. Additionally, the dilutive effect of the shares issuable upon conversion of our 0% convertible senior notes due 2027 and 0% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the Notes) using the if-converted method, estimated at approximately 15 million shares for each of the second quarter and full-year of fiscal 2027 based on the current conversion price and net of the potential antidilutive impact of the capped call transactions entered into in connection with the Notes (the Capped Calls), is reflected in our guidance for weighted-average shares used in computing net income per share attributable to common stockholders—diluted. Upon conversion of the Notes, we may choose to satisfy our conversion obligations by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of both. The Capped Calls will have an antidilutive impact when the average stock price of our common stock in a given period is higher than their exercise price. The estimated antidilutive impact of the Capped Calls reflected in our guidance is based on the market price of our common stock as of April 30, 2026, and is subject to change with future stock price movements.

⁴ Beginning with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, we no longer attribute a portion of our non-GAAP net income to noncontrolling interest. See section titled “Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further information.

Statement Regarding Use of Non‑GAAP Financial Measures We report the following non-GAAP financial measures, which have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

• Non-GAAP Product gross profit, Operating income, Net income, Net income attributable to Snowflake Inc., and Net income per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders—basic and diluted. Non-GAAP product gross profit, operating income, net income, and net income attributable to Snowflake Inc. are each defined as the respective GAAP measure, excluding, as applicable, the effect of (i) stock-based compensation-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles, (iii) expenses associated with acquisitions and strategic investments, (iv) amortization of debt issuance costs, (v) restructuring charges, net of associated income and recoveries, (vi) asset impairment related to office facility exits, net of associated sublease income, if any, (vii) adjustments attributable to noncontrolling interest, if any, and (viii) the related income tax effect of these adjustments as well as the non-recurring income tax expense or benefit associated with acquisitions. Non-GAAP product gross margin is calculated as non-GAAP product gross profit as a percentage of product revenue. Non-GAAP operating margin is calculated as non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of revenue. Our non-GAAP net income per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders—basic is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income attributable to Snowflake Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Our non-GAAP net income per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders—diluted is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income attributable to Snowflake Inc. by the non-GAAP weighted-average number of diluted shares outstanding, which includes (a) the effect of all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (stock options, restricted stock units, employee stock purchase rights under our 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan), (b) the potential dilutive effect of the shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes using the if-converted method, and (c) the antidilutive impact, if any, of the Capped Calls entered into in connection with the Notes. The Capped Calls are expected to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the Notes under certain circumstances. Under GAAP, the antidilutive impact of the Capped Calls is not reflected in diluted shares outstanding until exercised. The potential dilutive effect of outstanding restricted stock units with performance conditions not yet satisfied is included in the non-GAAP weighted-average number of diluted shares at forecasted attainment levels to the extent we believe it is probable that the performance conditions will be met. Amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest were not material for all periods presented. Beginning with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company no longer attributes a portion of non-GAAP net income to noncontrolling interest as it no longer controls a majority-owned subsidiary. The calculation of non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 and subsequent periods aligns with the methodology used to calculate non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders as described above. We believe the presentation of operating results that exclude these items that are (i) non-cash items, (ii) non-recurring items, or (iii) items that have highly variable amounts due to factors beyond our control and are unrelated to our core operations such that management does not consider them in evaluating the business performance or making operating plans, provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of our operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods.
• Free cash flow. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities reduced by purchases of property and equipment and any capitalized software development costs. Cash outflows for employee payroll tax items related to the net share settlement of equity awards are included in cash flow for financing activities and, as a result, do not have an effect on the calculation of free cash flow. Free cash flow margin is calculated as free cash flow as a percentage of revenue. We believe these measures provide useful supplemental information to investors because they are indicators of the strength and performance of our core business operations.
• Adjusted free cash flow. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow plus (minus) net cash paid (received) on employer and employee payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions. Employee payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions are generally pass-through transactions that are expected to have a net zero impact on free cash flow over time, but that may impact free cash flow in any given fiscal quarter due to differences between the time that we receive funds from our employees and the time we remit those funds to applicable tax authorities. We believe that excluding the effects of these payroll tax-related items will enhance investors' ability to evaluate our free cash flow performance, including on a quarter-over-quarter basis. Adjusted free cash flow margin is calculated as adjusted free cash flow as a percentage of revenue. We believe these measures provide useful supplemental information to investors because they are indicators of the strength and performance of our core business operations.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally for financial and operational decision-making purposes and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. We encourage investors to carefully consider our results under GAAP, as well as our supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand our business. Please see the tables included at the end of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results.

Key Business Metrics

We monitor our key business metrics, including (i) free cash flow and (ii) the other metrics set forth below to help us evaluate our business and growth trends, establish budgets, measure the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts, and assess operational efficiencies. See the section titled “Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for the definition of free cash flow. The calculation of our key business metrics may differ from other similarly titled metrics used by other companies, securities analysts, or investors.

• Product Revenue. Product revenue is a key metric for us because we recognize revenue based on platform consumption, which is inherently variable at our customers’ discretion, and not based on the amount and duration of contract terms. Product revenue is primarily derived from the consumption of compute, storage, and data transfer resources by customers on our platform. Customers have the flexibility to consume more than their contracted capacity during the contract term and may have the ability to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity at renewal. Our consumption-based business model distinguishes us from subscription-based software companies that generally recognize revenue ratably over the contract term and may not permit rollover. Because customers have flexibility in the timing of their consumption, which can exceed their contracted capacity or extend beyond the original contract term in many cases, the amount of product revenue recognized in a given period is an important indicator of customer satisfaction and the value derived from our platform. While customer use of our platform in any period is not necessarily indicative of future use, we estimate future revenue using predictive models based on customers’ historical usage to plan and determine financial forecasts. Product revenue excludes our professional services and other revenue.
• Net Revenue Retention Rate. To calculate net revenue retention rate, we first specify a measurement period consisting of the trailing two years from our current period end. Next, we define as our measurement cohort the population of customers under capacity contracts that used our platform at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period. The cohorts used to calculate net revenue retention rate include end-customers under a reseller arrangement. We then calculate our net revenue retention rate as the quotient obtained by dividing our product revenue from this cohort in the second year of the measurement period by our product revenue from this cohort in the first year of the measurement period. Any customer in the cohort that did not use our platform in the second year remains in the calculation and contributes zero product revenue in the second year. Our net revenue retention rate is subject to adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity, and we present our net revenue retention rate for historical periods reflecting these adjustments. Since we will continue to attribute the historical product revenue to the consolidated contract, consolidation of capacity contracts within a customer’s organization typically will not impact our net revenue retention rate unless one of those customers was not a customer at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period.
• Customers with Trailing 12-Month Product Revenue Greater than $1 Million. To calculate the number of customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, we count the number of customers under capacity arrangements that contributed more than $1 million in product revenue in the trailing 12 months. For purposes of determining our customer count, we treat each customer account, including accounts for end-customers under a reseller arrangement, that has at least one corresponding capacity contract as a unique customer, and a single organization with multiple divisions, segments, or subsidiaries may be counted as multiple customers. We do not include customers that consume our platform only under on-demand arrangements for purposes of determining our customer count. Our customer count is subject to adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity, and we present our customer count for historical periods reflecting these adjustments.
• Forbes Global 2000 Customers. Our Forbes Global 2000 customer count is a subset of our customer count based on the 2025 Forbes Global 2000 list. Our Forbes Global 2000 customer count is subject to adjustments for annual updates to the list by Forbes, as well as acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity with respect to such customers, and we present our Forbes Global 2000 customer count for historical periods reflecting these adjustments.
• Remaining Performance Obligations. Remaining performance obligations (RPO) represent the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including (i) deferred revenue and (ii) non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. RPO excludes performance obligations from on-demand arrangements and certain time and materials contracts that are billed in arrears. Portions of RPO that are not yet invoiced and are denominated in foreign currencies are revalued into U.S. dollars each period based on the applicable period-end exchange rates. RPO is not necessarily indicative of future product revenue growth because it does not account for the timing of customers’ consumption or their consumption of more than their contracted capacity. Moreover, RPO is influenced by a number of factors, including the timing and size of renewals, the timing and size of purchases of additional capacity, average contract terms, seasonality, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and the extent to which customers are permitted to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity at renewal. Due to these factors, it is important to review RPO in conjunction with product revenue and other financial metrics disclosed elsewhere herein.
