Good morning, everyone. Thanks for joining our 46th annual Canaccord Genuity Growth Conference. Pleased to have with us today, once again, JFrog. We have Ed Grabscheid, CFO, and Jeff Schreiner, VP of IR.
Thanks for joining. Thank you for having us.
Thank you. Let's kick it off with last week's quarter.
We had a broad beat and raise, cloud up 53%. It's been a volatile market, but the reaction has been positive.
Just what were the biggest takeaways in your view, and did anything surprise you to the upside?
Yeah, we were very pleased with the results of the quarter. As you mentioned, 29% growth on the top line, 53% growth in the cloud, and we see three contributing factors here. Not in particular order of magnitude, but security continues to be a significant growth driver for the company, and we had a great quarter in terms of security. We gave some of the proof points around security wins in those million-dollar cohort, as well as in the new customer lands. We continue to see strong usage with our cloud products. Some of those customers, and broadly across our portfolio, are going above minimum commitments. That's contributing, and then, of course, annual commitments. We see those customers not only using above minimum commits, but we also see an expansion of those existing customers to a higher annual commitment.
The combination of that leads to our JFrog Platform, and continued strength in our full platform. Was there a surprise? No. We kind of expected this and I think the surprise really came from the Street and from investors on how strong JFrog is performing.
Good to see. You've described, and the team has described, a tsunami of binaries, and when a customer is adopting coding agents, can you just help the audience better understand how that flows into Artifactory, building more code faster?
How does that then concretely turn into revenue for you?
Yeah. We love that the term tsunami of binaries is sticking and we saw that, and we strategically positioned JFrog to be able to capture that tsunami of binaries. It really comes down to a few factors here that are easy to describe. Organizations today are becoming software factories, every organization, and they're moving at the speed of machines. When you're moving at the speed of machines, this creates a surge in the amount of creation of code that, of course, turns into a binary. Add on top of that large language models, MCP, and skills, which 6, 8 months ago wasn't even part of discussion. Those are also binary. You're creating an exponential amount of binaries, and we're seeing that increase through Artifactory, through software supply chain, and how critical JFrog is becoming to these large organizations, in particular the foundational labs and many of the AI native companies, and this is a tsunami that we're seeing.
You talked about how the idea of an artifact is changing. It's now models, it's agent skills, it's MCP servers that are first-class artifacts alongside binaries. Can you just double-click again on why that makes you so much more strategic to these customers that are figuring out how to develop with AI?
Yeah. Yeah. Thank you for the question, Kingsley.
I think what you're describing is what we're seeing, is that JFrog was the system of record for your software artifacts, your software binaries. We are now positioned, and we would like to think of ourselves positioned, as now your system of record for your large language models, for your MCP connections, for your skills registries. Those are all going to be critical in the world of AI, in which we've already seen some customers come to us and look at hosting their skills, their MCP connections in Artifactory, thus bringing more importance to Artifactory and having to treat those, as you stated, as almost first-class citizens in the same way that you would treat the way that the artifacts and the software artifacts have been treated previously. Because each of those skills are attached to an agent.
Is the agent, in fact, doing what it was programmed with those skills to do? That's being managed, and where you would go to find that out, Artifactory. Is the MCP connection that I have with JFrog or Atlassian or other companies, is that acting up or is it acting different than it's supposed to be in the way that it's registered in Artifactory? The models likewise. The models are becoming first-class binaries because they're, in fact, the largest form of a binary, typically in a container, and now they're becoming different in the way they impact our storage.
Yeah. Because I no longer can say that the Git repository, I can no longer delete anything, and that was unique to Git, where the binary repository and software could be cleaned out of what I did not need.
