Dynatrace, Inc. · DT · FY2026 Q4 · Calendar Q2 2026

Dynatrace closes FY2026 above $2B in ARR; FY27 growth outlook centers on 15.5–16.5%

The call supports a constructive operating picture: Dynatrace surpassed $2 billion in ARR, reported sustained 16% growth, and described strong enterprise and log-management activity. The key test is whether continued platform and AI-related adoption can support the FY27 ARR growth outlook while cloud-hosting costs, conversion timing, and competitive pressure remain manageable.

Transcript intelligence

What changed

Compared with the prior-quarter analysis, the company moved from targeting more than $2 billion in ARR to reporting that it had surpassed that threshold. The latest call also emphasized four consecutive quarters of 16% ARR growth, more than 75% of ARR under DPS licensing, record large-deal and new-logo activity, and two acquisitions—DevCycle and BindPlan. FY27 ARR growth guidance is 15.5–16.5%; management noted cloud-hosting cost pressure.

Guidance delta

Management maintained its guidance sentiment in the latest call and provided FY27 ARR growth guidance of 15.5–16.5%. Cloud-hosting costs were identified as a source of modest margin pressure. The supplied analysis does not provide a prior FY27 comparison.

  • Management cited 22 deals above $1 million ACV and 126 new logos in Q4.

Methodology

Reported and consensus figures come from FN2's earnings event records. Market reaction and volume are calculated from daily adjusted bars around the event; abnormal move subtracts the SPY move over the same window.

Analyst target low, average, and high values are derived at request time from each named analyst's latest persisted FMP target. The current-price marker comes from FN2's persisted market snapshot. They are sell-side estimates, not an FN2 valuation or recommendation.

Transcript intelligence is a structured synthesis of the current and prior earnings-call analyses. Missing values stay missing and are never estimated.
