CrowdStrike reported first-quarter fiscal 2027 results that exceeded Wall Street expectations, with revenue of $1.385 billion and earnings per share of $1.10, both beating estimates. The company’s total annual recurring revenue grew 24% year-over-year to $5.51 billion, driven by strong net new ARR and significant growth in its AI-driven product suite, including a 250% quarterly increase in AIDR platform ARR.
