Positive Outlook

  • Total revenue of $221 million to $222 million, representing a growth rate of 32% to 33% year-over-year
  • Non-GAAP operating loss of $2.0 million to $1.0 million
  • Non-GAAP net loss per share of $0.02 to $0.01, assuming weighted shares outstanding of approximately 131 million
  • Total revenue of $822 million to $823 million, representing a growth rate of 40% year-over-year for the full year fiscal 2021
  • Non-GAAP net income per share, diluted of $0.04 to $0.05 for the full year fiscal 2021

Challenges Ahead

  • Non-GAAP operating loss of $2.0 million to $1.0 million for Q4 2021
  • Non-GAAP net loss per share of $0.02 to $0.01 for Q4 2021
  • Non-GAAP operating loss of $2.3 million to $1.3 million for fiscal year 2021
  • Okta has not reconciled its expectations as to non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, diluted to its most directly comparable GAAP measure because certain items are out of Okta’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted.
  • These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially.
