In October 2025, Elastic announced a share repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to $500 million of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares. As part of this program, during the first quarter of fiscal 2027, Elastic repurchased approximately 0.8 million ordinary shares at an average price per share of $49.71 on the open market, representing an aggregate value of approximately $40 million.
Financial Outlook
The Company is providing the following guidance:
For the second quarter of fiscal 2027 (ending October 31, 2026):
•Total revenue is expected to be between $486 million and $487 million, representing 14.9% year-over-year growth at the midpoint (15.0% year-over-year constant currency growth at the midpoint)

•GAAP operating margin is expected to be positive
•Non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be approximately 19.0%
•Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is expected to be between $0.80 and $0.82, assuming between 108.0 million and 109.0 million diluted weighted average ordinary shares outstanding
For fiscal 2027 (ending April 30, 2027):
•Total revenue is expected to be between $1.998 billion and $2.010 billion, representing 15.2% year-over-year growth at the midpoint (15.3% year-over-year constant currency growth at the midpoint)

The diluted weighted average ordinary shares outstanding reflect only share buybacks completed as of July 31, 2026.
The guidance assumes, among others, the following exchange rates: 1 Euro = 1.166 US Dollars; and 1 Great British Pound = 1.361 US Dollars.
See the section titled “Forward-Looking Statements” below for information on the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements. We present historical and forward-looking 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 entitled “Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for an explanation of these non-GAAP measures. A reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP measures for sales-led subscription revenue, operating margin, net (loss) earnings per share, and adjusted free cash flow margin is not available without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, many of the costs and expenses that may be incurred in the future. These items necessary to reconcile such non-GAAP measures could be material and have a significant impact on the Company’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.
Conference Call and Webcast
As previously announced, Elastic’s executive management team will host a conference call today at 2:00 p.m. PT / 5:00 p.m. ET to discuss the Company’s financial results and business outlook. A live audio webcast of the conference call will be available through Elastic’s Investor Relations website at ir.elastic.co. A presentation containing financial and operating information will be available at the same website. The replay of the webcast will also be available on the investor relations website.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties, which include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our expected financial results for the fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2026 and fiscal year ending April 30, 2027, the expected performance or benefits of and demand for our offerings, our product strategy and innovation, and the impacts of AI on enterprise technology, our industry and organizational decision-making. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances, including but not limited to, those related to: our future financial performance, including our expectations regarding our revenue, cost of revenue, gross profit or gross margin, operating expenses (which include changes in sales and marketing, research and development and general and administrative expenses), and our ability to achieve and maintain profitability; the success of our AI initiatives; competition we face in the AI landscape; market understanding and valuation of AI technologies; the use of AI by our workforce; the impact of the evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical environments on our business, operations, hiring and financial results, and on businesses and spending priorities of our customers and partners; the impact of our pricing model strategies on our business; the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, the uncertain inflation and interest rate environment, and tariffs and other international trade policies on our results; our ability to continue to deliver and improve our offerings and develop new offerings; customer acceptance and purchase of our new and existing offerings; the expansion and adoption of our offerings; our ability to realize value from investments in the business, including acquisitions; our ability to maintain and expand our user and customer base; our international expansion strategy; the impact of our licensing model on the use and adoption of our software; our operating results and cash flows; the sufficiency of our capital resources; our ability to successfully execute our go-to-market strategy; our forecasts regarding our business; risks affecting continuation of our share repurchase program; our plan to align our investments more closely with our strategic priorities that we announced earlier this year; and general market, political, economic and business conditions.
Any additional or unforeseen effects from the evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical environments may exacerbate these risks. Additional risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements are included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026 and subsequent quarterly and current reports filed with the SEC. SEC filings are available on the Investor Relations section of Elastic’s website at ir.elastic.co and the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Elastic assumes no obligation to, and does not currently intend to, update any such forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we believe the non-GAAP measures discussed below are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. Investors are cautioned that there are a number of limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics as analytical tools. Investors are encouraged to review the differences between GAAP financial measures and the corresponding non-GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business and financial results.
Reconciliations of historical GAAP financial measures to their respective historical non-GAAP financial measures are included below. In relation to constant currency non-GAAP financial measures, the only reconciling item between GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP financial measures is the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. Further details on how we calculate such effects can be found in the definition of “Constant Currency” below.
Sales-led Subscription Revenue
Sales-led subscription revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as total subscription revenue excluding Monthly Elastic Cloud. We believe sales-led subscription revenue provides management and our investors with a consistent metric with which to measure the health of our business.
Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Non-GAAP Gross Margin
We define non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin as GAAP gross profit and GAAP gross margin, respectively, excluding stock-based compensation expense and related employer taxes, and amortization of acquired intangible assets. We believe non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin provide our management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitate period-to-period comparisons of operations, as these metrics generally eliminate the effects of certain variables from period to period for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.
Non-GAAP Operating Income and Non-GAAP Operating Margin
We define non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin as GAAP operating loss and GAAP operating margin, respectively, excluding stock-based compensation expense and related employer taxes, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses, and restructuring and other related charges. We believe non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin provide our management and investors consistency and
comparability with our past financial performance and facilitate period-to-period comparisons of operations, as these metrics generally eliminate the effects of certain variables from period to period for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.
Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share
We define non-GAAP net income as GAAP loss, excluding stock-based compensation expense and related employer taxes, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring and other related charges, and the income tax benefit from the release of any valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. Additionally, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share are adjusted for an assumed provision for income taxes based on a projected non-GAAP annual effective tax rate in fiscal 2027 and 2026 of 12% and 13%, respectively. We define non-GAAP earnings per share, basic, as non-GAAP net income divided by weighted average shares outstanding and non-GAAP earnings per share, diluted, as non-GAAP net income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding, which includes the potentially dilutive effect of the company’s employee equity incentive plan awards. We believe non-GAAP earnings per share provides our management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain variables from period to period for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin
Adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for cash paid for interest on long-term debt less cash used for investing activities for purchases of property and equipment. Adjusted free cash flow margin is calculated as adjusted free cash flow divided by total revenue. Adjusted free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since, among other things, we have mandatory debt service requirements.
Constant Currency
We compare the percent change in certain results from one period to another period using constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. In presenting this information, current and comparative prior period results are converted into United States dollars at the exchange rates in effect on the last day of our prior fiscal year, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective periods.

(1) Totals may not sum, due to rounding. Gross margin, operating margin, and earnings per share are calculated based upon the respective underlying, non-rounded data.
(2) We use a projected non-GAAP annual effective tax rate for the purpose of determining non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share, basic and diluted, across the interim period. We believe this approach provides investors with a more consistent view of our underlying operating performance. Our annual projected non-GAAP tax rate excludes the impact from stock-based compensation expense and related employer taxes, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring and other related charges, discrete tax items, valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, and other non-recurring tax adjustments, which may vary in size and frequency. Our annual projected non-GAAP tax rate for fiscal 2027 and 2026 was 12% and 13%, respectively. Our annual projected non-GAAP tax rate may change due to factors such as new tax legislation, shifts in the geographic mix of earnings, or other significant business developments. We assess this rate as needed to ensure it reflects current conditions. Applying a consistent annual rate improves comparability across reporting periods by excluding the effects of discrete or non-recurring tax items.
