Two Questions That Matter

The print will turn on these two things.

What is the revenue growth rate for this quarter?

Revenue growth is a key indicator of the company's performance and ability to capture market share, which investors will closely scrutinize.

How many new customers were added this quarter?

Customer growth is essential for sustaining revenue increases and indicates the company's competitive position in the market.

Edge

What the Street Is Missing

Why consensus could be wrong

The Street may underestimate Snowflake's ability to maintain high revenue growth due to its unique positioning in the cloud data market, which is less sensitive to economic downturns than other sectors.

Supporting Evidence

Recent earnings surprises indicate strong underlying demand.

Options pricing suggests traders expect significant movement, reflecting uncertainty that may not align with actual performance.

The company's focus on innovation and customer service could drive continued growth despite broader market challenges.

Key Risk

If revenue growth comes in below 20%, it could challenge the bullish narrative surrounding the company's future prospects.

Edge

Thesis-Break Levels

Pre-commit to what would confirm each case.

The core debate this quarter revolves around whether Snowflake can maintain its rapid growth in a competitive environment.

Bull Confirmed If

Revenue growth of 30% year-over-year or better would confirm the bull case.

Bear Confirmed If

Revenue growth below 15% year-over-year would confirm the bear case.
