Traders can update valuation models using the raised full-year revenue range and the higher non-GAAP operating margin range, alongside quarterly operating income and cash flow strength.

Raised FY revenue and non-GAAP margin ranges plus strong Q2 operating income and operating cash flow are the core repricing inputs.
What to watch

Market effects
