Did CRM Beat Earnings? Q2 2026 Results

Salesforce posted a clean beat across the board in its fiscal second quarter of 2026, with non-GAAP diluted EPS of $2.91 topping the $2.7792 consensus by 4.71% and revenue of $10.24 billion edging past estimates by 0.97% on 9.8% year-over-year growth — results that will have investors <a href="https://247wallst.com/investing/2026/02/25/live-will-salesforce-crm-breakout-after-earnings/">watching the stock closely</a>. The standout driver was the explosive momentum in Data Cloud and AI, where annual recurring revenue crossed $1.20 billion, up 120% year-over-year, while Agentforce deal closures surpassed 12,500 — over 6,000 of which were paid engagements. That AI traction helped propel subscription and support revenue to $9.69 billion, and lifted non-GAAP operating margin to 34.3%, marking the company's tenth consecutive quarter of expansion. Current remaining performance obligation rose 11% to $29.40 billion, underpinning healthy forward visibility. For Q3, Salesforce guided revenue of $10.24 billion to $10.29 billion and raised its full-year non-GAAP operating margin outlook to 34.1%, signaling continued confidence in its AI-led growth trajectory.
