Key Data Points
"Everpure is at an inflection point as we expand our horizons to managing data in the enterprise and solutions for hyperscalers," CEO Charlie Giancarlo said. "A decade of committed investment in an integrated, extensible architecture has created a structurally higher growth baseline in our core business."
Revenue gains are accelerating
These attractive AI-driven opportunities are reflected in Everpure's ambitious financial targets.
For fiscal 2027, management expects revenue to grow by roughly 38% to nearly $5.1 billion, resulting in adjusted operating income of about $950 million.
Looking further ahead to fiscal 2028, Everpure sees its growth rate accelerating to 39%-45%, bringing its revenue to $7 billion to $7.3 billion and adjusted operating profit to $1.7 billion to $1.9 billion.
That's well above Wall Street's estimates, which had called for fiscal 2028 revenue of $6.2 billion.
"Everpure's financial profile is durably resetting to higher levels of growth and profitability," chief financial officer Tarek Robbiati said.
