Zscaler stock plunges 30% in a day after weaker-than-expected guidance

TL;DR AI
2 min readKey summary
Zscaler shares plunged more than 30% after issuing weaker-than-expected guidance.
The company projected 2027 annual recurring revenue growth of 16%–17% and lowered near-term revenue expectations below estimates.
That came despite a quarterly beat on adjusted EPS and revenue, which had topped analyst forecasts.
The selloff suggests investors are weighing future growth concerns more heavily than the latest earnings beat.
