70% of our opportunity has been on organic innovation as a company.

Bloomberg Tech

Now, that's worked out really well for us.

Bloomberg Tech

Even now, we've announced two big deals, CyberArk and Chronosphere.

Collectively, we're going to spend slightly under $30 billion.

But that gave us the confidence to increase our targets for ARR in the $530 billion to $5 billion.

If I can go spend $30 billion and buy $5 billion of AR five years from now, I do that every day.

You know, when I started 7.5 years ago, we were a $2 billion company.

Well, our peer right now is $15.5 billion.

We set a target of $20 billion in ARR.

we'll be generating $10 or $15 billion of free cash flow a year.

Bloomberg Tech

That's a far cry from where we started at a few hundred million dollars seven years ago.

Bloomberg Tech

I think you have to look at it from a slightly multi-year perspective.

Bloomberg Tech
Nvidia’s Forecast Lifts AI Trade

From that perspective, we think we're well-positioned.

Bloomberg Tech

We think this is going to be the largest cybersecurity company in the world.

Bloomberg Tech

We have aspirations to take it and double or triple it from where we are.

Bloomberg Tech

Yes, of course, it is working.
