On September 8, GitLab, Inc. declined 5.13% in regular trading, trading at $47.365 per share, with turnover of approximately $39.36 million. The stock pulled back sharply after surging over 20% following its strong Q2 fiscal 2027 earnings release on September 1, which had propelled shares to a 52-week high.
GitLab reported Q2 revenue of $286.3 million, up 21% year-over-year, beating consensus estimates by $12.94 million. Adjusted EPS came in at $0.24, topping the $0.18 estimate by 33%. Net ARR growth exceeded 40%, and gross bookings hit a record high. The company also raised its full-year fiscal 2027 revenue guidance to $1.129–$1.133 billion, above the $1.115 billion consensus. Following the report, multiple analysts lifted price targets, with Morgan Stanley raising to $57, Canaccord Genuity to $70, and Truist to $48.
However, after the sharp post-earnings rally, profit-taking pressure emerged. BofA Securities noted that uncertainty around GitLab's Flex model transition and its ability to sustain 20%-plus growth partially offset the strong results. Morgan Stanley also flagged that larger-than-expected Flex contract migration could defer revenue recognition to future quarters, tempering near-term enthusiasm.
