Achieved constant currency revenue acceleration driven by strong sales execution and the maturation of a multi-year segmentation strategy focused on high-propensity enterprise customers.
Recorded the highest-ever quarterly net additions to the $100,000+ ACV cohort, which now accounts for 90% of sales-led subscription revenue.
Capitalized on the shift toward 'agentic' AI applications, where Elastic's strength in high-accuracy retrieval and context engineering serves as a critical layer for LLM reasoning.
Expanded the Observability addressable market by launching a purpose-built columnar data structure that reduces metrics storage costs by approximately 20% to 3 bytes per sample.
Leveraged a 'post-Mythos' security environment to drive SIEM and XDR adoption, utilizing AI-driven automation to help defenders operate at machine speed.
Maintained a competitive moat through deployment flexibility, supporting cloud, self-managed, and air-gapped environments for highly regulated industries and sovereign agencies.
Integrated Deductive AI to build 'agentic SRE' capabilities, enabling autonomous detection and remediation across the full application signal stack.

Outlook and Strategic Assumptions

Raised full-year revenue and operating margin guidance based on strong Q1 execution, robust pipeline build, and healthy consumption of prior-year commitments.
Expects revenue growth to continue accelerating throughout fiscal 2027, with the fourth quarter projected to have the highest year-over-year growth rate.
Anticipates Net Expansion Rate (NER) will improve within four quarters as the current constant currency revenue acceleration works through the trailing 12-month metric.
Assumes continued productivity gains from ramped sales headcount and increased cross-sell momentum as customers adopt all three platform solutions.
Targets long-term margin expansion through the scaling of serverless offerings and continued operating leverage as the business moves toward Rule of 40 targets.

Structural and Risk Factors

Incurred $20 million in restructuring-related charges during Q1, with an additional $2 million to $5 million expected for the remainder of the fiscal year.
Achieved FedRAMP High authorization, which unlocked significant new opportunities within the U.S. public sector and large government agencies.
Announced a board transition with Julia Liuson nominated to join, bringing Microsoft-scale developer tools and AI infrastructure expertise.
Executed $40 million in share repurchases during the quarter, with $120 million remaining under the current $500 million authorization.

Q&A Insights

Sustainability and drivers of record $100,000+ customer additions

One stock. Nvidia-level potential. 30M+ investors trust Moby to find it first. Get the pick. Tap here.

Management attributed the record growth to a segmentation change made two years ago that is now fully maturing in the enterprise and mid-market segments.
AI penetration is a key driver, with 37% of this cohort now using AI features compared to 21% a year ago.

Competitive differentiation in the AI context engineering market

Elastic differentiates from traditional data platforms by being natively optimized for 'messy' unstructured data, which is the primary fuel for AI agents.
The platform's ability to bring the model to the data—rather than moving petabytes of data to a model—reduces costs and improves retrieval speed.

Impact of new metrics capabilities on Observability growth

The new columnar backend allows Elastic to be 'incredibly competitive' on price and performance for time-series data, an area where it previously lacked a major presence.
Native Prometheus ingestion and PromQL support are enabling 'rip and replace' migrations from incumbents by eliminating the need for tool retraining.

Security market dynamics and displacement of legacy SIEM

The 'post-Mythos' world has increased the urgency for AI-led security; Elastic is winning by offering an open harness rather than a 'black box' AI approach.
Management highlighted a win with a public sector agency where they migrated a complex data platform from an incumbent in under one month using automated migration tooling.
