Is Salesforce Stock A Buy After Earnings? Consider Capital Allocation And Valuations
Salesforce's Q1 FY 2023 earnings per share, Sales Cloud revenue and operating margin all came in above market expectations, and this resulted in CRM's shares rising by +10% post-results announcement. The increase in the expected earnings per share for CRM in full-year FY 2023 as part of the company's updated management guidance suggests that Salesforce's outlook is good. I rate Salesforce as a Buy after earnings in view of its valuations and the management's recent comments on capital allocation priorities.
