Cybersecurity company SentinelOne<\/strong> issued a fourth-quarter revenue forecast that fell slightly short of analyst expectations on Thursday, sending its shares down more than 7%<\/strong> in after-hours trading. The company expects revenue of $271 million<\/strong>, compared with the $273.1 million<\/strong> consensus estimate compiled by LSEG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The guidance reflects a competitive environment in which AI-driven security platforms<\/strong> are reshaping how organizations defend against cyberattacks, putting pressure on smaller players to maintain growth while keeping pace with rapid innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SentinelOne develops the Singularity<\/strong> platform, a security suite designed to analyze data in real time and automate threat detection and response. It aims to reduce manual workloads for cybersecurity teams while improving speed and accuracy in incident handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the third quarter, the company reported revenue of $258.9 million<\/strong>, slightly above expectations of $257.7 million<\/strong>, highlighting continued demand for its AI-native technology despite market headwinds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The company also announced the planned departure of Chief Financial Officer Barbara Larson<\/strong>, who will leave in mid-January for a role outside the cybersecurity sector. Larson previously helped guide SentinelOne toward improving operational results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Barry Padgett<\/strong>, the company\u2019s Chief Growth Officer and a former executive at SAP and Stripe, will step in as interim CFO while SentinelOne begins the search for a permanent successor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SentinelOne continues to compete against larger, well-capitalized rivals such as CrowdStrike<\/strong> and Palo Alto Networks<\/strong>, which retain dominant positions across key parts of the cybersecurity market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Revenue forecast misses Wall Street expectations Cybersecurity company SentinelOne issued a fourth-quarter revenue forecast that fell slightly short of analyst expectations on Thursday, sending its shares down more than 7% in after-hours trading.
