CrowdStrike Holdings Inc
ir.crowdstrike.comCrowdStrike Holdings (NASDAQ: CRWD) is a cybersecurity company that delivers cloud-native endpoint, workload, identity, and threat intelligence protection through its Falcon platform. Revenue comes primarily from subscriptions to the Falcon platform and its cloud modules, sold directly through field and inside sales teams and through channel partners, with a land-and-expand model that grows contract value as customers add endpoints and modules. Annual recurring revenue (ARR) and dollar-based net retention rate are the primary operating metrics disclosed in the FY2026 10-K (filed 2026-03-05). The Falcon platform processes trillions of cybersecurity events per week and benefits from a network effect: each additional endpoint added to the platform increases the breadth of the shared threat dataset, which improves detection for all customers. A content configuration update on July 19, 2024 caused system crashes on certain Windows systems, adversely affecting sales cycles and financial results. CrowdStrike acquired SGNL.AI for approximately $627.9 million and Seraphic Algorithms for approximately $327.4 million, both closing in early 2026.
Products & Services

Revenue Model
Subscription fees for access to the Falcon platform and individual cloud modules, with professional services (incident response and proactive services) as a secondary revenue stream. The go-to-market model is land-and-expand: initial deployments are expanded to more endpoints and additional modules over time. Channel partners supplement the direct sales force but are not counted as customers for retention metric purposes.
