Description: CRM Salesforce.com January 26, 2026
Salesforce Inc. (NYSE: CRM) delivers a cloud-based Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform that links companies with customers worldwide. Its product suite now spans Agentforce (an AI-enabled “agentic” layer), Data Cloud (a unified data engine), industry-specific AI agents, Salesforce Starter for SMBs, Slack for workplace collaboration, Tableau for end-to-end analytics, and a suite of marketing, commerce, and field-service solutions. The firm also offers Agentforce Command Center for AI-agent observability and maintains a strategic partnership with Google to embed Agentforce 360 in Google Workspace, extending the Salesforce Gemini AI integration.
According to Salesforce’s FY 2025 Form 10-K (filed March 2026), total revenue reached **$31.5 billion**, up **12 % YoY**, with subscription-and-support revenue growing **14 %** and operating margin expanding to **19 %**. Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) crossed the **$100 billion** threshold, and AI-augmented product usage rose **≈30 %** year-over-year, reflecting strong client adoption of the new Agentforce and Data Cloud capabilities.
Two macro-level drivers underpin this growth: (1) U.S. corporate IT spending is projected to rise **~5 % YoY** in 2026, buoyed by continued digital-transformation initiatives, and (2) the enterprise AI software market is expanding at a **~20 % CAGR**, creating tailwinds for Salesforce’s AI-centric offerings. A sector-wide trend toward SaaS consolidation further pressures incumbents to innovate and integrate AI to retain market share.
For a deeper, data-rich assessment of how these dynamics translate into valuation risk and upside, you may find ValueRay’s analytical framework useful.
