Salesforce has published its annual earnings report and financial outlook, lowering its 2026 revenue forecast by approximately 8%.
The adjustment follows the company’s announcement earlier this month that Robin Washington will assume the role of CFO and President, effective March 21, 2025. Washington will succeed Amy Weaver, who has been CFO since 2021.
Despite its shares rising over 15% this year and the company recording an 8% increase in full-year sales for 2025, the cloud company reduced its 2026 sales guidance from $40.9 billion to $40.5 billion, compared to the initial estimate of $41.46 billion.
The stronger U.S. dollar is also expected to affect company sales by $200 million this fiscal year.
In the company’s earnings release, departing CFO Amy Weaver told investors: “We closed out the year with strong results and our relentless focus on profitable growth drove record-breaking revenue, margin, and cash flow, setting a strong foundation for the company into FY26. Our capital return program continued to deliver incredible value to our shareholders, returning $21 billion since inception.”
Marc Benioff, co-Founder, Chair and CEO stated, “We had an incredible quarter and year, with strong performance across all our key metrics, including the highest cash flow in our company’s history and more than $60 billion in RPO. No company is better positioned than Salesforce to lead customers through the digital labor revolution. With our deeply unified platform, seamlessly integrating our Customer 360 apps, Data Cloud and Agentforce, we’re already delivering unprecedented levels of productivity, efficiency and cost savings for thousands of companies.”
