Atlassian posts Q1 FY2027 earnings beat but issues slower growth outlook, shares tumble

Atlassian reported first‑quarter fiscal 2027 revenue of $1.772 billion, up 24% year‑over‑year, and adjusted earnings of $1.65 per share, beating analyst estimates. The company forecast subscription ARR growth of about 18.5% for the full year, down from the 23% growth recorded in the quarter, and projected total revenue growth of 13.75% for FY2027, well below the 24% quarterly increase. The weaker guidance triggered a pre‑market sell‑off of roughly 15‑16% in the stock.

The lower full‑year revenue and subscription growth outlook suggests a slowdown in Atlassian’s growth trajectory, which may pressure valuation multiples. Investors will watch whether the company can sustain cloud revenue expansion and improve margins as it targets a 25.5% adjusted operating‑margin for FY2027 (the company said).
