May 29, 2024 4:35 PM

UiPath Inc. (NYSE: PATH) reported a solid set of first-quarter results, however, the soft guidance sent shares sharply lower in afterhours trading Wednesday.


UiPath reported its first-quarter earnings per share (EPS) of $0.13, which was slightly higher than the analyst projection of $0.12.


The company's revenue for the quarter also surpassed expectations, coming in at $335.1 million against the anticipated $333.88 million.


Looking ahead, UiPath provided guidance for its second-quarter revenue, projecting between $300 million and $305 million. This forecast falls short of the market consensus, which had estimated a higher revenue of $342.4 million.


For the full fiscal year 2025, UiPath anticipates revenues to be in the range of $1.405 billion to $1.410 billion, which is sharply below the consensus estimates of $1.56 billion.


UiPath stock fell 30% on the news.


"While our revenue and operating margin guidance are impacted by contract timing and duration, we have confidence in our ability to generate durable ARR growth at scale, and meaningful non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow," the company's officials said.


The company also forecasts its ARR to reach between $1.660 billion and $1.665 billion by January 31, 2025.
