The accelerating cRPO (20% YoY) and RPO (28% YoY) growth, combined with FY2027 margin expansion guidance (19.0% vs 16.4%), suggest durable top-line momentum and operating leverage. The Q4 revenue of $451M was below the $469.6M consensus but above the company's own guidance range of $445-447M — the beat on guidance and strong forward metrics should outweigh the headline miss vs consensus. Monitor Q1 FY2027 results for continued cRPO acceleration and margin progression.
