Sales Growth

A company’s long-term sales performance is one signal of its overall quality. Even a bad business can shine for one or two quarters, but a top-tier one grows for years. Thankfully, Asana’s 20.5% annualized revenue growth over the last three years was decent. Its growth was slightly above the average software company and shows its offerings resonate with customers.

This quarter, Asana reported year-on-year revenue growth of 8.6%, and its $187.3 million of revenue exceeded Wall Street’s estimates by 0.9%. Company management is currently guiding for a 7.7% year-on-year increase in sales next quarter.

Looking further ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 8% over the next 12 months, a deceleration versus the last three years. This projection is underwhelming and indicates its products and services will face some demand challenges.
