Pure Storage reported revenue growth in its third fiscal quarter, with revenues reaching $762.8 million, up 13% YoY. The company achieved its third profitable quarter in history, driven by strong demand for its portfolio and the success of its storage-as-a-service offering, Evergreen//One. However, high subscription sales growth and a large telco order deliverable in 2025 led to a lower revenue outlook for the next quarter.
