Weighed against its $5 billion market cap, the company is valued at less than 5 times ARR. <\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Commvault Systems Stock Quote\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"64\" height=\"64\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"w-full flex-none object-contain\" style=\"color:transparent\" srcset=\"https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Fart%2Fcompanylogos%2Fmark%2FCVLT.png&#038;w=64&#038;op=resize 1x, https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Fart%2Fcompanylogos%2Fmark%2FCVLT.png&#038;w=128&#038;op=resize 2x\" src=\"https:\/\/g.foolcdn.com\/image\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Fart%2Fcompanylogos%2Fmark%2FCVLT.png&#038;w=128&#038;op=resize\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s Change<\/p>\n<p>(-0.77%) $-0.94<\/p>\n<p>Current Price<\/p>\n<p>$121.15<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-gray-1100 text-md my-[22px] leading-snug font-bold uppercase\">Key Data Points<\/h3>\n<p>Market Cap<\/p>\n<p>$5.0B<\/p>\n<p>Day&#8217;s Range<\/p>\n<p>$117.22 &#8211; $124.62<\/p>\n<p>52wk Range<\/p>\n<p>$71.75 &#8211; $200.68<\/p>\n<p>Volume<\/p>\n<p>443.6K<\/p>\n<p>Avg Vol<\/p>\n<p>969.7K<\/p>\n<p>Gross Margin<\/p>\n<p>80.28%<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, CrowdStrike reported $5.51 billion in annual recurring revenue in its fiscal 2027 Q1, which ended April 30. Relative to its $170 billion market cap, that gives CrowdStrike a much higher valuation of over 30 times ARR &#8212; even though both companies have similar growth rates. <\/p>\n<p>Commvault is expecting its strong growth to carry over into its fiscal 2027. The cybersecurity company reported $1.18 billion in fiscal 2026 revenue and projects about $1.3 billion in fiscal 2027 revenue at the midpoint, which would be a 10% year-over-year improvement.<\/p>\n<p>The company has a good history of beating its guidance, and the tailwinds from growing cybersecurity&#8217;s role in the AI build-out can further support that trend. Commvault even beat revenue and EPS expectations for its fiscal 2026 Q4. <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"my-6 text-2xl font-bold\">The drop looks extremely overdone<\/h2>\n<p>Although Commvault has solid fundamentals, its stock is down by almost 40% over the past year. It also lost about 40% of its value from January through early April this year, but it has recovered almost all of its year-to-date losses.<\/p>\n<p>The combination of soft guidance for its fiscal Q3 2026 and its previously high valuation triggered a steep drop in the stock price.
