🔥 CrowdStrike closed FY2025 with remarkable momentum – $4.24B in ending ARR and our first year exceeding $1B in annual free cash flow. In an AI-accelerated demand environment, the Falcon platform is cybersecurity’s AI-native SOC to stop breaches.

Everyone loves a comeback story, and ours is defined by three key elements:

1) Record-Breaking and Accelerating TCV: $6B in TCV, growing 40% YoY – the first and only pureplay cybersecurity company reported to reach this scale. The market wants CrowdStrike.

2) Increasing Platform Adoption: Accounts adopting Flex soaring to $2.5B in deal value, growing 80% QoQ and over 10x YoY. Cloud Security, Identity, Next-Gen SIEM are collectively >$1.3B in ending ARR. We are cybersecurity’s consolidation platform.

3) Customer Momentum: 97% gross retention and Q4 net new ARR of $224M shows unwavering customer commitment.

We're grateful for the trust of our customers, the dedication of our team, and the loyalty of our partners. In an AI-evolving world, cybersecurity is essential – and now more than ever, the world needs CrowdStrike.

CrowdStrike is actively working with customers impacted by a defect found in a single content update for Windows hosts. Mac and Linux hosts are not impacted.

We refer customers to the support portal for the latest updates and will continue to provide complete and continuous updates on our website. We further recommend organizations ensure they’re communicating with CrowdStrike representatives through official channels. Our team is fully mobilized to ensure the security and stability of CrowdStrike customers.

[George Kurtz @George_Kurtz]

Today was not a security or cyber incident. Our customers remain fully protected.

We understand the gravity of the situation and are deeply sorry for the inconvenience and disruption. We are working with all impacted customers to ensure that systems are back up and they can deliver the services their customers are counting on.

As noted earlier, the issue has been identified and a fix has been deployed. There was an issue with a Falcon content update for Windows Hosts.
