ServiceNow reported strong Q1 results with 22% subscription revenue growth and 97% customer retention, raising its full-year guidance. Despite these robust fundamentals and a clear AI-driven growth strategy targeting $1.5 billion in annual contract value, shares fell 16% due to fears about AI's impact on the SaaS sector.
