Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
The company posted solid ARR growth and strong free cash flow, plus a clear FY27 upgrade in revenue and margin guidance. This aligns with a durable growth thesis, improves profitability credibility, and could lead to multiple expansion as investors reprice sustainables ahead of 2027. Historical precedent shows how strong ARR growth and raised guidance in SaaS/modern software can lift stock multiples when cash flow remains healthy.
