SAIL - Solid Start to FY27; Agentic Opportunity Building but Not Fully Reflected in Guide

Truist Securities

on prior trends, Q1 showed further acceleration in SaaS adoption, with ~92% of net new ARR coming from SaaS, reflecting both ongoing

conversions and strong cloud-first demand. Importantly, migrations are broadening beyond the initial perpetual-heavy cohort to include

more strategic term-based customers, with increasing urgency to modernize architectures in preparation for AI and agentic identity use

cases. This is being reinforced by (1) rapid innovation within Identity Security Cloud, (2) continued traction of Flex pricing models that

ease upfront budget constraints, and (3) growing enterprise focus on consolidating identity platforms. Overall, we continue to view the

migration opportunity as a durable, multi-year growth lever, with the combination of ARR uplift, higher SaaS mix, and increased emerging

product attach supporting both near-term visibility and longer-term expansion potential.

Prudent Guidance: SailPoint modestly raised FY27 guidance, with ARR now expected at ~$1.364–1.374Bn (21–22% YoY), reflecting a ~

$8M increase driven by Q1 upside while maintaining a balanced and conservative outlook. On a net new basis, the implied ~$240–$250M

ARR addition is broadly in line with FY26 levels, suggesting management is not yet incorporating material acceleration from emerging

AI/agentic demand despite strong early signals. We view this as consistent with prior commentary, with management embedding limited

contribution from AI-related products and continuing to emphasize durability over near-term upside. Importantly, growth remains supported

by core drivers including SaaS migrations, expansion within the installed base, and steady new logo activity.
