Insights

Nutanix delivered strong Q2 FY2025 results with 19% year-over-year ARR growth, demonstrating continued momentum in its subscription-based business model. This growth rate signals robust customer adoption of the Nutanix Cloud Platform at a time when enterprises are increasingly seeking trusted partners for hybrid multicloud deployments.

The company's financial position has been significantly strengthened through two strategic moves: issuing $862.5 million in convertible notes at a favorable 0.5% interest rate and establishing a $500 million revolving credit facility. This enhanced balance sheet flexibility provides Nutanix with expanded options for strategic investments, potential M&A activity, or accelerated product development – particularly important as they position themselves in the growing AI infrastructure market.

The strong free cash flow generation mentioned (though not quantified) suggests improving operational efficiency and reflects the company's successful transition to a subscription model. This transition typically creates initial revenue recognition headwinds but leads to more predictable, higher-quality revenue streams over time.

Nutanix's Enterprise Cloud Index findings about GenAI changing organizational priorities presents both an opportunity and challenge. As businesses implement AI initiatives, they'll need robust, secure infrastructure solutions – precisely what Nutanix aims to provide. However, this also intensifies competition with hyperscalers and specialized AI infrastructure providers.

For investors, Nutanix's outperformance across all guided metrics indicates effective execution against its strategic objectives. The 19% ARR growth demonstrates the company's ability to expand its recurring revenue base while maintaining financial discipline – a critical balance in the current market environment where growth at all costs is no longer rewarded.

Nutanix's Q2 results reveal how their technical approach to hybrid multicloud is resonating with enterprises navigating increasingly complex IT environments. The 19% YoY ARR growth indicates strong market validation of their hyperconverged infrastructure platform, which simplifies operations across disparate environments through a unified control plane.

The company's ECI survey findings about GenAI changing organizational priorities has significant technical implications. As enterprises deploy more AI workloads, infrastructure requirements shift dramatically – demanding solutions that can efficiently manage compute-intensive applications while maintaining strict security controls. Nutanix's architecture, which decouples storage from compute while maintaining unified management, positions them advantageously for these emerging workloads compared to traditional three-tier infrastructure.

From a competitive standpoint, Nutanix occupies a strategic middle ground between on-premises infrastructure providers and hyperscalers. Their software-defined approach allows customers to maintain consistent operations while leveraging public cloud resources selectively – addressing the reality that most enterprises maintain hybrid environments for technical, regulatory, and financial reasons.

The company's focus on partnerships likely includes deeper technical integrations with key ecosystem players. Their relationships with hardware vendors provide flexibility for customers, while cloud partnerships enable true hybrid capabilities rather than just multi-cloud management.

For technical decision-makers, Nutanix's platform offers a compelling proposition: simplified infrastructure management with enterprise-grade security, scalability for modern workloads including AI, and freedom from vendor lock-in. These technical advantages translate directly to the financial outperformance, as organizations increasingly value infrastructure that reduces operational complexity while enabling innovation.

SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nutanix, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTNX), a leader in hybrid multicloud computing, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended January 31, 2025.

“During our second quarter we delivered outperformance across our guided metrics,” said Rajiv Ramaswami, President and CEO of Nutanix. “Our results are benefiting from the strength of the Nutanix Cloud Platform, demand from businesses looking for a trusted long-term partner committed to innovation and customer care, and go-to-market leverage from our partnerships and programs.”

Footnotes

¹Annual Recurring Revenue, or ARR, for any given period, is defined as the sum of ACV for all subscription contracts in effect as of the end of a specific period. For the purposes of this calculation, we assume that the contract term begins on the date a contract is booked, unless the terms of such contract prevent us from fulfilling our obligations until a later period, and irrespective of the periods in which we would recognize revenue for such contract. Excludes all life-of-device contracts. ACV is defined as the total annualized value of a contract. The total annualized value for a contract is calculated by dividing the total value of the contract by the number of years in the term of such contract. Excludes amounts related to professional services and hardware.

²Average Contract Duration represents the dollar-weighted term, calculated on a billings basis, across all subscription contracts, as well as our limited number of life-of-device contracts, using an assumed term of five years for life-of-device licenses, executed in the period.

³Weighted average share count used in computing diluted non-GAAP net income per share.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Performance Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release includes the following non-GAAP financial and other key performance measures: non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, free cash flow, Annual Recurring Revenue (or ARR), and Average Contract Duration. In computing non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items such as stock-based compensation and the related income tax impact, costs associated with our acquisitions (such as amortization of acquired intangible assets, income tax-related impact, and other acquisition-related costs), restructuring charges, litigation settlement accruals and legal fees related to certain litigation matters, the amortization and conversion of the debt discount and issuance costs related to convertible senior notes, interest expense related to convertible senior notes, inducement expense related to the repurchase of convertible senior notes, and other non-recurring transactions and the related tax impact. Non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, and non-GAAP operating margin are financial measures which we believe provide useful information to investors because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses and expenditures such as stock-based compensation expense that may not be indicative of our ongoing core business operating results. Free cash flow is a performance measure that we believe provides useful information to our management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after capital expenditures, and we define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. ARR is a performance measure that we believe provides useful information to our management and investors as it allows us to better track the topline growth of our subscription business because it takes into account variability in term lengths. We use these non-GAAP financial and key performance measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. However, these non-GAAP financial and key performance measures have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, and free cash flow are not substitutes for gross margin, operating expenses, operating income (loss), operating margin, or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, respectively. There is no GAAP measure that is comparable to ARR or Average Contract Duration, so we have not reconciled the ARR or Average Contract Duration data included in this press release to any GAAP measure. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures and key performance measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures and key performance measures as tools for comparison. We urge you to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures and key performance measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures included below in the tables captioned “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Profit Measures” and “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities to Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow,” and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. This press release also includes the following forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures as part of our third quarter fiscal 2025 outlook and/or our fiscal 2025 outlook: non-GAAP operating margin and free cash flow. We are unable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts, as we are currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact the GAAP financial measures for these periods but would not impact the non-GAAP financial measures.

Subscription revenue —
Subscription revenue includes any performance obligation which has a defined term, and is generated from the sales of software entitlement and support subscriptions, subscription software licenses and cloud-based software-as-a-service, or SaaS, offerings.

  • Ratable — We recognize revenue from software entitlement and support subscriptions and SaaS offerings ratably over the contractual service period, the substantial majority of which relate to software entitlement and support subscriptions.
  • Upfront — Revenue from our subscription software licenses is generally recognized upfront upon transfer of control to the customer, which happens when we make the software available to the customer.

Professional services revenue — We also sell professional services with our products. We recognize revenue related to professional services as they are performed.

Other non-subscription product revenue — Other non-subscription product revenue includes approximately $7.0 million and $15.2 million of non-portable software revenue for the three and six months ended January 31, 2024, respectively, $0.5 million and $2.3 million of non-portable software revenue for the three and six months ended January 31, 2025, respectively, $1.2 million and $1.8 million of hardware revenue for the three and six months ended January 31, 2024, respectively, and $1.8 million and $2.9 million of hardware revenue for the three and six months ended January 31, 2025, respectively.

  • Non-portable software revenue — Non-portable software revenue includes sales of our platform when delivered on a configured-to-order appliance by us or one of our OEM partners. The software licenses associated with these sales are typically non-portable and can be used over the life of the appliance on which the software is delivered. Revenue from our non-portable software products is generally recognized upon transfer of control to the customer.
  • Hardware revenue — In the infrequent transactions where the hardware appliance is purchased directly from Nutanix, we consider ourselves to be the principal in the transaction and we record revenue and costs of goods sold on a gross basis. We consider the amount allocated to hardware revenue to be equivalent to the cost of the hardware procured. Hardware revenue is generally recognized upon transfer of control to the customer.
