In late trading, Salesforce shares (CRM) were down 5.9% to $268.30. That follows a decline of 4% in the day’s regular session.

For the fiscal third quarter ended Oct. 31, Salesforce reported revenue of $6.86 billion, up 27% from a year ago or 26% adjusted for currency, and about in-line with estimates of $6.8 billion. On a non-GAAP basis, the company earned $1.27 a share, including a gain of 28 cents for mark-to-market accounting of strategic investments. Adjusted for the gain, the company edged the consensus of 92 cents a share. On a GAAP basis, the company earned 47 cents a share, including 27 cents from investment gains.

Remaining performance obligations at the end of the quarter were $36.3 billion, up 20% year over year. 

“We delivered another phenomenal quarter, fueling strong revenue growth, margin and cash flow,” Benioff said. “With the tremendous strength of our Customer 360 platform and Slack, we’re on track to reach $50 billion revenue in FY ‘26.”

For the January quarter, Salesforce sees revenue of $7.224 billion to $7.234 billion, up 24% from a year ago, with non-GAAP profit of 72 to 73 cents a share. The Street has been projecting $7.22 billion in profit and 81 cents a share. The company projects a GAAP loss of 23 to 24 cents a share, wider than the Street consensus at a loss of 15 cents. The company sees growth in current remaining performance obligations of 19%.

For fiscal year 2022, Salesforce now sees revenue of $26.39 billion to $26.4 billion, up 24%, with non-GAAP profit of $4.68 to $4.69 a share; consensus has been $26.33 billion and $4.42 a share.

For the April quarter, Salesforce is projecting revenue of $7.215 billion to $7.25 billion, up 21% to 22%, which is below the Street consensus at $7.35 billion. 

For fiscal year 2023, Salesforce sees revenue of $31.7 billion to $31.8 billion, up 20%, and in-line with the Street at $31.8 billion.
