Snowflake Beats Q1 Estimates, Revenue +34% YoY, Lands $6B AWS Deal
Snowflake reported first-quarter fiscal 2027 results that topped analyst expectations, with revenue growing 34% year-over-year and 616 net new customers added during the period. The company also raised its full-year financial outlook, signaling confidence in sustained momentum. Alongside earnings, Snowflake announced a $6 billion expanded commitment with Amazon Web Services, deepening one of its most strategically important cloud partnerships.
A 34% revenue growth rate is exceptional for a company of Snowflake's scale, and raising guidance after a beat typically signals that management sees the momentum as durable rather than one-time. The AWS deal is particularly meaningful — it reduces platform risk and expands Snowflake's distribution reach, which directly supports the bull case for long-term revenue compounding. Investors in cloud and data infrastructure ETFs will feel indirect exposure alongside direct SNOW shareholders.
Snowflake next earnings (Q2 FY2027): expected late August 2025. AWS re:Invent conference: December 2025 (watch for deeper joint product announcements). Broader cloud sector check: Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud quarterly results due mid-July 2025.
