On June 3, GitLab declined 7.07% overnight, trading at $29.57/share, with trading volume of $11,400. The drop came after the company reported Q1 fiscal 2027 results that beat expectations but issued disappointing forward guidance and announced an aggressive restructuring plan.
GitLab posted Q1 adjusted EPS of $0.23, beating the consensus estimate of $0.21 by 9.52%, while revenue of $264.2 million exceeded the expected $254.2 million, representing 23% year-over-year growth. However, the company guided Q2 adjusted EPS of $0.17 to $0.18, below the analyst consensus of $0.19, and Q2 revenue of $272 million to $274 million, roughly in line with estimates.
Additionally, GitLab announced plans to cut 350 full-time employees, approximately 14% of its workforce, and exit 22 countries, reducing its global footprint by roughly 37%. While the restructuring aims to streamline operations, the scale of the cuts raised investor concerns about growth sustainability. The systems software sector also traded broadly lower, with Microsoft down 0.73%, Oracle down 2.14%, and Palo Alto Networks down 3.09%, adding further pressure.
