Snowflake significantly raised its annual product revenue forecast on Wednesday, driven by increased corporate investment in artificial intelligence applications and the migration of more data workloads to its cloud platform. This announcement propelled the company's stock to surge 36% in after-hours trading. The company also deepened its collaboration in enterprise AI by signing a five-year, $6 billion agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS). The deal involves Snowflake's adoption of AWS's Graviton processors and AI infrastructure. This new agreement will encompass deep product integration in generative and agentic AI, expand go-to-market efforts through the AWS Marketplace, and facilitate workload migrations. The partnership aims to assist enterprises in transitioning their AI projects from the experimental phase to everyday application. "The new agreement with Amazon adds significant momentum to Snowflake's growth trajectory," said Gil Luria, Managing Director at D.A. Davidson. "This enables Snowflake to play a more critical role as customers transition to AI and further aligns its strategy with its largest partner." Snowflake has experienced substantial growth, fueled by surging demand for its core data warehouse product. This demand is driven by migrations from legacy systems and increased usage of machine learning tools. The company's tools, such as Cortex Code and Snowpark, have also seen widespread adoption. The company revised its product revenue forecast for fiscal year 2027 upward to $5.84 billion from a previous projection of $5.66 billion. "Based on the strength of our core data platform business and the significant uplift from our AI capabilities... we are raising our outlook for fiscal 2027," stated CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy during the earnings call. According to data compiled by London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), Snowflake anticipates second-quarter product revenue to be between $1.415 billion and $1.420 billion, surpassing the average analyst estimate of $1.37 billion. For the first quarter, the company reported revenue of $1.39 billion, exceeding expectations of $1.32 billion.
