Delivered a standout first quarter of fiscal 2027, beating consensus estimates on both the top and bottom lines as its accelerating AI strategy drove broad-based demand across its platform. The cloud data company posted revenue of $1.39 billion, up 33.5% year over year and ahead of the $1.32 billion consensus, while non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.39 cleared the $0.32 estimate by 21.95%, extending Snowflake's streak of beating consensus EPS estimates to four consecutive quarters. The clearest driver behind the results was AI adoption, with more than 13,600 accounts now using Snowflake AI capabilities and Snowflake Intelligence accounts more than doubling quarter over quarter. Remaining performance obligations grew 38% year over year to $9.21 billion, underlining the durability of that demand. Management raised full-year fiscal 2027 product revenue guidance to $5.84 billion, implying 31% growth, and lifted its non-GAAP operating margin outlook to 13.5%, signaling confidence that the AI momentum carrying Q1 has staying power heading into the rest of the year.

“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. 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.”
