On August 28, SentinelOne, Inc fell 5.82% in regular trading, trading at $21.56/share, with turnover of $32.77 million. The decline follows the company's decision to significantly lower its full-year earnings outlook despite delivering a Q2 beat.
SentinelOne reported fiscal Q2 adjusted EPS of $0.08, beating the consensus estimate of $0.07 by 14.29%, while revenue of $292 million also topped the $290.2 million expectation. However, the company cut its fiscal 2027 adjusted EPS guidance to $0.30-$0.32, well below its prior range of $0.32-$0.38 and the FactSet consensus of $0.35. Fiscal Q3 EPS guidance of $0.08-$0.09 also came in below the $0.11 analyst estimate.
Notably, this marks the second consecutive quarter in which SentinelOne beat current-quarter estimates yet saw its stock sell off sharply on weak forward guidance. Last quarter, the stock plunged approximately 18% under similar circumstances involving margin deterioration and disappointing outlooks. While analysts have maintained Buy ratings with targets of $25-$26, the market's high sensitivity to guidance shortfalls continues to drive selling pressure.
