CrowdStrike Q2 Earnings Preview: AI-Driven Growth Amid Valuation Concerns
Cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike Holdings (CRWD) prepares to release its Fiscal Q2 2026 results after market close on August 27, with Wall Street anticipating $0.83 EPS (-20% YoY) and $1.15B revenue (+19% YoY). The stock's 58% annual surge reflects strong demand for its AI-powered Falcon platform, though some analysts flag stretched valuations and potential H2 growth deceleration.
BMO Capital maintains its Outperform rating despite trimming CRWD's price target to $460, citing positive channel checks. CrowdStrike's nine-quarter earnings beat streak positions it as a consistent performer in the volatile cybersecurity sector.
