Let’s see how things have shaped up for RBRK prior to this announcement:

Factors to Note for Rubrik

Rubrik’s second-quarter performance is expected to have benefited from its growing client base and increased demand for its data security solutions.

Following a robust fiscal first-quarter performance, wherein subscription revenues surged 59% year over year to $172.2 million, Rubrik is set to maintain strong momentum driven by its strong partner base and increasing adoption of its solutions.

Rubrik’s expanding clientele, which includes major industry players like Crowdstrike CRWD, Kyndryl KD and Alphabet’s GOOGL cloud business, Google Cloud, is likely to have driven growth during the fiscal second quarter.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, RBRK announced its partnership with CrowdStrike to enhance data security by integrating the Rubrik Security Cloud with CrowdStrike’s Falcon XDR platform, enabling faster detection and prevention of attacks on sensitive data. Benefits from this partnership are likely to be reflected in the to-be-reported quarter’s performance.

Rubrik also announced a global strategic alliance with Kyndryl to co-develop and launch Kyndryl Incident Recovery with Rubrik, a fully-managed solution offering data protection, cyber incident recovery and disaster recovery for cloud and on-premises workloads. This partnership is expected to strengthen Rubrik’s position in the market and attract additional clientele in the next quarter.

In August, the company announced a new partnership with Mandiant, part of Alphabet’s Google Cloud, integrating threat intelligence and incident response to enhance cyber recovery and resilience. The integration with Google Cloud’s expertise and capabilities is expected to have amplified Rubrik’s growth further and solidify its role as a leading provider of data security solutions.

However, Rubrik faces stiff competition from data management and protection vendors, including Cohesity, Commvault, Veeam, IBM and Dell EMC, which is expected to have negatively impacted top-line growth for the to-be-reported quarter.

Rubrik currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
