Gen Digital lifts FY 2027 revenue outlook on AI‑driven cyber‑security demand
Gen Digital announced an upgraded full‑year revenue target for fiscal 2027 of $5.38 billion to $5.48 billion, up from its prior $5.33 billion‑$5.43 billion range. The company also raised its adjusted earnings‑per‑share outlook to $2.87‑$2.97, compared with the earlier $2.85‑$2.95 range.
For the most recent quarter ending July 3, Gen Digital reported revenue of $1.34 billion, beating analysts’ average estimate of $1.31 billion, and posted adjusted earnings of $0.71 per share versus the $0.69 consensus. CEO Vincent Pilette said rising consumer anxiety over AI‑enabled fraud is the main driver of new customer sign‑ups, with the flagship Norton 360 suite seeing membership growth to 81 million paying users – the 11th consecutive quarter of sequential growth. The firm also expects about $100 million of incremental revenue from its financial‑wellness initiatives over the next 18 months.
