Revenue exhibits a consistent upward trajectory over the analyzed period, primarily driven by the aggressive expansion of the subscription segment. Total revenue increased from 3,091 million USD in February 2020 to 6,760 million USD by August 2026, reflecting a strong growth trend in the core business model.

Revenue Stream Dynamics
Subscription revenue demonstrates steady and significant quarterly growth, rising from 2,732 million USD to 6,582 million USD. In contrast, product revenue shows a long-term decline, falling from 143 million USD to 67 million USD, and services and other revenue decreased from 216 million USD to 111 million USD. This shift indicates a strategic transition toward a recurring revenue model, with subscription income becoming the overwhelmingly dominant revenue driver.
Gross Profit and Cost Efficiency
Gross profit grew from 2,639 million USD in February 2020 to 5,997 million USD in August 2026. While the cost of revenue increased from 452 million USD to 763 million USD over the same period, the rate of increase in gross profit outpaced the growth in costs, suggesting maintained or improving gross margins.
Operating Expense Trends
Operating expenses have scaled alongside revenue growth, increasing from 1,702 million USD to 3,643 million USD. Research and development spending rose from 532 million USD to 1,288 million USD, while sales and marketing expenses increased from 857 million USD to 1,827 million USD. General and administrative expenses also trended upward, from 271 million USD to 488 million USD, despite some periodic fluctuations.
Operating Income and One-Time Impacts
Operating income grew from 937 million USD to 2,354 million USD, though this growth was interrupted in March 2024 by a one-time acquisition termination fee of 1,000 million USD, which caused a temporary drop in operating income to 907 million USD for that quarter. Excluding this anomaly, the operating income trend reflects strong operational leverage.
Net Income and Bottom-Line Performance
Net income generally improved from 955 million USD in February 2020 to 1,827 million USD in August 2026. A notable outlier occurred in November 2020, where net income spiked to 2,250 million USD, likely due to a significant tax benefit of 1,053 million USD. More recent quarters show a stabilized increase in net income, supported by growth in operating income and a gradual increase in other non-operating income.
