Salesforce, Inc. (CRM) – Company Overview, Business Model & Stock Analysis

Salesforce, Inc. (NYSE: CRM) is a San Francisco-based enterprise software company that sells cloud-based customer relationship management (CRM) technology and related data, AI, integration and analytics services, primarily on a subscription basis. This page profiles the listed company and its stock: it brings together TradingView market widgets, financial reference data taken from Salesforce’s SEC filings, and a dated, clearly labelled third-party Shariah-screening snapshot for research purposes. Salesforce’s fiscal year ends January 31, so “fiscal 2026” means the year ended January 31, 2026. Widgets update dynamically; the tables and screening notes are static and carry their own reporting periods and dates.

CRM Advanced Stock Chart

The interactive chart below displays CRM price and volume history across time intervals from intraday to multi-year views. Developments that Salesforce’s own filings highlight include the completion of the Informatica acquisition in November 2025 for approximately $9.6 billion, a $50 billion share repurchase authorization approved in February 2026, and a $25 billion accelerated share repurchase that began in March 2026 and was funded with proceeds of senior notes. Subscription growth, remaining performance obligation, operating margin, adoption of its Agentforce AI offerings and competition from AI-native companies can also influence sentiment, so price history is one input among several and should be read alongside fundamentals. See also SaGeminieTech’s Artificial Intelligence pillar page.

 

Chart patterns are not guarantees of future performance. Price movements may reflect quarterly results and guidance, changes in capital allocation and leverage, acquisition integration, AI-related competition or broader sentiment toward enterprise software stocks.

Salesforce Financial Statements and Fundamentals

Key figures worth examining for Salesforce include total revenues and their mix, gross and operating margin, remaining performance obligation, cash generation and capital return. In fiscal 2026 total revenues were $41.5 billion, up 10%, of which subscription and support revenues of $39.4 billion made up about 95%; income from operations was $8.3 billion and net cash provided by operating activities was $15.0 billion (10-K). In the first six months of fiscal 2027 revenue was $22.5 billion, up 12% year over year (10-Q).

On capital return, Salesforce reported repurchasing approximately 50 million shares for about $12.7 billion and paying about $1.6 billion in dividends and dividend equivalents in fiscal 2026. In February 2026 its Board authorized $50 billion of repurchases; the $25 billion accelerated share repurchase that began in March 2026 resulted in the repurchase of approximately 103 million shares through July 31, 2026 (10-Q). The company funded it with the net proceeds of senior notes issued in March 2026 ($25.0 billion aggregate principal per the 8-K). Principal due on outstanding debt was $39.5 billion at July 31, 2026 versus $14.5 billion at January 31, 2026, and quarterly interest expense was $473 million versus $67 million a year earlier (tables below).

Source: Salesforce Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended July 31, 2026 (SEC filing, filed 2026-08-27), unaudited. Net income in Q2 FY2027 includes a $2,613 million gain on strategic investments, so it is not comparable with operating performance. For the six months ended July 31, 2026 the company reported revenue of $22.5 billion, up 12% year over year. Interest expense is shown in parentheses.

Sources: 10-Q for the period ended July 31, 2026 (filing) and the fiscal 2026 10-K (filing). Salesforce says its fourth quarter has historically been its strongest for new business and renewals, so balances at these two dates are not seasonally comparable. The company reported total remaining performance obligation up 11% and current remaining performance obligation up 14% year over year at July 31, 2026. The March 2026 senior notes issuance that raised principal debt funded an accelerated share repurchase (8-K filed 2026-03-12).

 

Financial panels should be read across multiple reporting periods rather than a single quarter, and checked against Salesforce’s filings: the fiscal 2026 Form 10-K and the Q2 fiscal 2027 Form 10-Q. On September 16, 2026 the company also posted an Investor Day presentation containing guidance and growth targets (8-K filed 2026-09-17); it is not summarized on this page.

Salesforce Company Profile and Business Model

Salesforce reports one operating segment. Its offerings are organized on the Agentforce 360 Platform and reported by service offering: Agentforce Sales, Agentforce Service, Agentforce 360 Platform, Slack and Other, Agentforce Marketing and Agentforce Commerce, and Agentforce Integration and Agentforce Analytics. It sells to businesses worldwide, primarily on a subscription basis, through direct sales and partners, and describes Data 360 as the data layer and Slack as the conversational interface for its agent-based applications. The company states it was founded in 1999 and reported 83,334 employees at January 31, 2026.

Informatica, an enterprise data management platform, was acquired in November 2025 for approximately $9.6 billion and contributed about $0.4 billion of revenue in fiscal 2026. Geographically, the Americas generated 65% of fiscal 2026 revenue, Europe 25% and Asia Pacific 10%. Marc Benioff is Chair of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and co-Founder (10-K executive officer list as of February 28, 2026), and Robin Washington is President and Chief Operating and Financial Officer (signatory of the 10-Q dated August 26, 2026).

Salesforce describes its market as highly competitive, rapidly evolving and fragmented; its 10-K lists competitors including vendors of packaged and cloud business software, AI-native companies and startups, vendors of industry- or function-specific software, productivity-tool and communications providers, and platform-development companies. This section profiles the listed company; for how the CRM product works, what it costs and how it compares, see SaGeminieTech’s Salesforce CRM guide and Sales Cloud review.

Source: fiscal 2026 10-K (filing). The company renamed its service offerings to reference Agentforce in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, with no change in revenue allocation. Agentforce 360 Platform, Slack and Other includes $388 million of subscription and support revenue from Informatica, acquired in November 2025. Integration and Analytics includes term software licenses recognized at a point in time, so it can be more volatile period to period. Professional services and other revenue was $2,137 million in FY2026.

Source: fiscal 2026 10-K (filing). Revenue by geography is based on the region of the Salesforce contracting entity, which may differ from the customer’s region. Americas revenue attributed to the United States was approximately 93% in each of fiscal 2024–2026.

 

Salesforce’s revenue is spread across five service offerings, none above 25% of subscription and support revenue in fiscal 2026, with about 95% of total revenue reported as subscription and support. Its growth mix shifted in fiscal 2026 toward Agentforce 360 Platform, Slack and Other (+23%, including Informatica). For the wider software context see SaGeminieTech’s SaaS & Software page.

Salesforce Technical Analysis

This widget summarizes technical indicators — moving averages, oscillators and overall signal counts — for CRM across selected timeframes.

 

Technical signals change as new data arrives and should not be treated as a recommendation. Consider them together with fundamentals, Salesforce’s higher leverage after its March 2026 notes issuance, the pace of AI-related competition and the timing of quarterly results.

Salesforce Historical Stock-Price Overview

The overview below covers CRM price and percentage change across several date ranges, with volume and moving-average context. Salesforce’s reported total revenues rose from $34.9 billion in fiscal 2024 to $41.5 billion in fiscal 2026 (table above), while operating margin, calculated from reported figures, rose from 14.4% to 20.1% over the same period. Its capital structure also changed in 2026 with the $25 billion accelerated share repurchase funded by senior notes. Price history is best interpreted alongside those developments rather than in isolation.

 

Historical performance does not guarantee future results and reflects a specific past period only.

Salesforce Shariah Compliance Snapshot

The snapshot below reflects third-party Shariah screening for CRM based on AAOIFI-derived methodology, as reported by two providers, Zoya and Musaffa. Both public pages were read on 2026-09-20. Screening results change as market capitalization, debt, cash and non-permissible income change — treat this as a starting reference, not a permanent certification. Neither provider’s screen is an AAOIFI certification, and each applies its own thresholds.

Current StatusScreened as Shariah-compliant by Zoya (AAOIFI standard; last updated September 2026) and as HALAL with a B- rating by Musaffa (AAOIFI-based methodology; last updated September 9, 2026, Q2 fiscal 2027 report). The two sources agree as of 2026-09-20 — independent current verification required
Debt / Market CapManual verification required (not disclosed on Zoya’s public page; Musaffa’s detailed report is behind login). Salesforce’s 10-Q reports principal debt of $39.5 billion at July 31, 2026 versus $14.5 billion at January 31, 2026 — re-verify the latest status before relying on it
Cash + Securities / Market CapManual verification required (not disclosed on Zoya’s public page; Musaffa’s detailed report is behind login)
Non-Permissible IncomeZoya reports no separate interest income disclosed for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 (total revenue $41.525 billion) — manual verification required
Screening BasisAAOIFI Standard (per Zoya’s and Musaffa’s stated methodologies)
Last ReviewedZoya last updated September 2026 (cites the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026); Musaffa last updated September 9, 2026 (Q2 fiscal 2027 report). The two providers appear to use different reporting periods. Both pages were read on 2026-09-20; figures were not independently re-verified on this page
Shariah compliance can change when market capitalization, debt, cash, interest-bearing assets or non-permissible income changes. This snapshot reflects two third-party providers (Zoya and Musaffa) and is not a permanent certification. Confirm the latest status through Zoya’s Shariah screening, Musaffa’s Shariah screening or a qualified Shariah adviser before making an investment decision.

Key Investor Considerations for Salesforce

Potential Strengths

  • Subscription and support revenue of $39.4 billion, about 95% of fiscal 2026 total revenues, and total remaining performance obligation of $66.3 billion at July 31, 2026, up 11% year over year (company-reported)
  • Gross margin of 77.7% and operating margin of 20.1% in fiscal 2026, up from 75.5% and 14.4% in fiscal 2024 (calculated from reported figures)
  • Net cash provided by operating activities of $15.0 billion in fiscal 2026, alongside about $12.7 billion of share repurchases and $1.6 billion of dividends in the year
  • Revenue spread across five service offerings and three regions, with no single offering above 25% of subscription and support revenue
  • Growth in Agentforce 360 Platform, Slack and Other of 23% in fiscal 2026, helped by the Informatica acquisition ($388 million of subscription and support revenue)

Material Risks

  • Competition from vendors of packaged and cloud software and from AI-native companies that the 10-K says may bypass traditional business-process workflows
  • Higher leverage: principal debt rose to $39.5 billion at July 31, 2026 from $14.5 billion at January 31, 2026, and Q2 fiscal 2027 interest expense was $473 million versus $67 million a year earlier
  • Integration and execution risk on acquisitions such as Informatica; the 10-K lists an inability to realize expected benefits of acquisitions among its risk factors
  • Customer attrition and inaccurate prediction of subscription renewals, a risk factor listed in the 10-K, in a business where about 95% of revenue is subscription and support
  • Volatility in strategic investments: Q2 fiscal 2027 net income included a $2.6 billion gain on strategic investments, and the 10-K lists possible loss or fair-value changes in that portfolio as a risk
  • Regulatory and ethical issues around AI in its offerings, and restructuring costs ($94 million in Q2 fiscal 2027)

Conclusion

Salesforce has become a large subscription-software company, with fiscal 2026 revenue of $41.5 billion, about 95% of it subscription and support, an operating margin that rose from 14.4% to 20.1% over two years, and a portfolio that now includes the Informatica data-management business. That profile is balanced against intense competition including AI-native entrants, principal debt that rose from $14.5 billion to $39.5 billion in 2026 alongside a $25 billion accelerated share repurchase funded by senior notes, acquisition-integration and renewal risks, and reported earnings that in the latest quarter were lifted by a large gain on strategic investments. The tools on this page — charts, financials, technical indicators and news — support ongoing research into Salesforce, but they do not replace a review of its official filings or independent financial, legal, tax or Shariah advice.
