Snowflake's valuation is even more detached now than in 2021: estimates are lower, the risk-free rate is higher, and the stock price is the same. Even with 33% growth implying $11-12B of revenue a year out, a $130B value against about $200M of profit makes little sense; $20B of profit far in the future is worth about $2B today. With the 10-year at 4.8%, earnings ten years out are worth only 62% of their value under zero rates. Per 2021 forecasts it should have had over $20B in revenue this year. … Show more

Snowflake's valuation looks full after more than doubling since May on an AI inflection story, given five years of promised inflections that didn't materialize. Stock-based compensation remains heavy at $1.6B against FY2026 revenue of $4.7B, though dilution has been kept in check lately. At about 23x EV/revenue, or 19x forward, it sits near the top of its 2-3 year range. A Databricks IPO could make investors see Snowflake as old relic tech. x.com  x.com 

Snowflake's revenue growth has far outpaced its stock return, leaving a valuation disconnect. Revenue rose 363% over five years to $1.55 billion quarterly while the shares gained just 19%; that disparity looks hard to justify. x.com 

Snowflake looks expensive against its sales at $316.77. It trades at 21x sales and 14x next year's, while software companies usually get 8x. Fair value runs $165.06 to $210.08, about 8x next year's sales, so buyers pay 51% above fair, and the forward view already assumes 39% more sales than trailing. This is a valuation read only, based on reported earnings and estimates. x.com 

Snowflake is still not GAAP profitable at a $125 billion valuation because it keeps chasing top-line growth at any cost. x.com 

Snowflake remains headed to $390 a share by end-2027 because investors have yet to fully realize it benefits from AI rather than being disrupted by it. It guides for 31% growth and roughly $1.5B of free cash flow, moving toward $2B a year. Buying before the market latches onto that narrative captures the easy money, while waiting for market clues means trailing the market. x.com 

Snowflake has not solved its stock-compensation problem just because the stock jumped, and its valuation still is not justified by any visible path to real profits. SBC still eats 29% of revenue, GAAP EBIT margin is -24%, and future GAAP earnings remain wildly uncertain. @Sam_Badawi argues the 38% jump on reaccelerating growth shows Snowflake growing out of its SBC problem, but the market simply does not care about the bottom line right now. It remains speculative and could work. x.com 

Salesforce is a great business, but SaaS names need to reaccelerate in this market and its growth is not enough today. Organic constant-currency growth is about 8–9%, fiscal 2027 free cash flow guidance came in below buy-side expectations, and Agentforce apps grew just 9% year over year, the slowest in years. Private SaaS metrics and Snowflake's latest report make that bar higher. x.com 

Snowflake is showing real AI-driven sales acceleration, and analysts questioning its buybacks and 2028 earnings guide misread it. Net revenue retention is 126%, @WisemanCap notes AI workloads carry higher gross margins than traditional ones, and management sees a $460B TAM by 2031. SBC fell from 50% of revenue to 29% last quarter and could be about 20% in a year; at under $90B EV it trades at 9-10x next year's revenue. Not cheap, but top line and margins drive free cash flow. x.com  x.com  x.com  … Show more

Salesforce is fully priced, even a little more than worth paying, for roughly 12% annual growth: trailing revenue of $43B is expected to reach $63B by 2030. A lower price would be needed for a long-term position, and it is not a buy-and-forget stock. x.com  x.com
