SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Salesforce (NYSE: CRM), the global leader in CRM, today announced results for its fiscal fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2021 ended January 31, 2021.

“We never could have predicted a year ago what was in store, which makes me incredibly proud of how well we pivoted our company to adapt to this pandemic world,” said Marc Benioff, Chair & CEO of Salesforce. “We had a record quarter and year by innovating more and faster than ever, enabling our customers to be successful from anywhere, and becoming more relevant and strategic than ever. And we continued to serve all of our stakeholders in a time when they needed it most.”

Salesforce delivered the following results for its fiscal fourth quarter and full fiscal year:

Revenue: Total fourth quarter revenue was $5.82 billion, an increase of 20% year-over-year, and 19% in constant currency. Subscription and support revenues for the quarter were $5.48 billion, an increase of 20% year-over-year. Professional services and other revenues for the quarter were $0.34 billion, an increase of 18% year-over-year.

Total fiscal 2021 revenue was $21.25 billion, up 24% year-over-year, and 24% in constant currency. Subscription and support revenues for the year were $19.98 billion, up 25% year-over-year. Professional services and other revenues for the year were $1.28 billion, up 21% year-over-year.

Operating Margin: Fourth quarter GAAP operating margin was 3.3%. Fourth quarter non-GAAP operating margin was 17.5%. Fiscal 2021 GAAP operating margin was 2.1%. Fiscal 2021 non-GAAP operating margin was 17.7%.

Earnings per Share: Fourth quarter GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.28, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.04. Mark-to-market accounting of the company’s strategic investments, required by ASU 2016-01, benefited GAAP diluted earnings per share by $0.21 based on a U.S. tax rate of 25% and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share by $0.22 based on a non-GAAP tax rate of 22%.

Fiscal 2021 GAAP diluted earnings per share was $4.38, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $4.92. Mark-to-market accounting of the company’s strategic investments, required by ASU 2016-01, benefited GAAP diluted earnings per share by $1.75 based on a U.S. tax rate of 25% and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share by $1.82 based on a non-GAAP tax rate of 22%.

Cash: Cash generated from operations for the fourth quarter was $2.17 billion, an increase of 33% year-over-year. Total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities ended the fourth quarter at $11.97 billion. Cash generated from operations for fiscal 2021 was $4.8 billion, an increase of 11% year-over-year.

Remaining Performance Obligation: Remaining performance obligation ended the fourth quarter at approximately $36.1 billion, an increase of 17% year-over-year. Current remaining performance obligation ended the fourth quarter at approximately $18.0 billion, an increase of 20% year-over-year, 18% in constant currency.

As of February 25, 2021, the company is initiating its GAAP earnings per share guidance, non-GAAP earnings per share guidance, and current remaining performance obligation growth guidance for its first quarter of fiscal year 2022. As of February 25, 2021, the company is raising its revenue guidance previously provided on December 1, 2020 for its first quarter of fiscal year 2022 and full fiscal year 2022. As of February 25, 2021 the company is initiating its operating cash flow guidance, GAAP earnings per share guidance, non-GAAP earnings per share guidance, GAAP operating margin guidance and non-GAAP operating margin guidance for its full fiscal year 2022.

Management will provide further commentary around these guidance assumptions on its earnings call, which is expected to occur on February 25, 2021 at 2:00 PM Pacific Time.

Our guidance assumes no change to the value of the company’s strategic investment portfolio resulting from ASU 2016-01 as it is not possible to forecast future gains and losses. In addition, the guidance below is based on estimated GAAP tax rates that reflect the company’s currently available information, and excludes forecasted discrete tax items such as excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. The GAAP tax rates may fluctuate due to future acquisitions or other transactions.

(1) The Company’s GAAP tax provision is expected to be approximately (130%) for the three months ended April 30, 2021, and for the year ended January 31, 2022. The GAAP tax rates may fluctuate due to discrete tax items and related effects in conjunction with certain provisions in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, future acquisitions or other transactions.

(2) The Company’s projected GAAP and Non-GAAP diluted (loss) earnings per share assumes no change to the value of our strategic investment portfolio resulting from ASU 2016-01 as it is not possible to forecast future gains and losses. While historically the company’s strategic investment portfolio has had a positive impact on the company’s financial results, that may not be true for future periods, particularly in periods of significant market fluctuations that affect the publicity traded companies within the company’s strategic investment portfolio. The impact of future gains or losses from the company’s strategic investment portfolio could be material.

(3) The Company’s Non-GAAP tax provision uses a long-term projected tax rate of 21.5%, which reflects currently available information and could be subject to change.

For additional information regarding non-GAAP financial measures see the reconciliation of results and related explanations below.
