                  However, the company's revenue outlook for the current quarter and full year fell short of market expectations. 

                  Salesforce guided full-year revenue to be between $41.1 billion and $41.3 billion, and diluted earnings per share between $6.99 and $7.03.

                  “We remain on track for fiscal 2026 to be a record year with nearly $15 billion in operating cash flow,” said Marc Benioff, Chair and CEO, Salesforce.

                  • Dollar Tree Inc. dropped 9% to $100.23 after the discount retailer reported a 42% rise in net income in the latest quarter, but the company's outlook disappointed and fell short of expectations.

                    Same-store sales increased 6.5% in the quarter, driven by a 3% increase in traffic and a 3.4% rise in ticket size. 

                    Consolidated revenue jumped 12.3% to $4.6 billion from $4.1 billion, net income climbed to $188.4 million from $132.4 million, and diluted earnings per share soared to 75 cents from 66 cents a year ago.

                    During the fiscal second quarter, Dollar Tree returned a total of $572.4 million to shareholders through share repurchases, including the repurchase of 5.6 million shares of common stock. 

                    The retailer estimated fiscal third quarter adjusted diluted earnings per share will be similar to a quarter a year ago. 

                    Dollar Tree raised its full-year revenue estimate to a new range between $19.3 billion and $19.5 billion and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to between $5.32 and $5.72.

                    The retailer cautioned that its guidance is based on stable tariffs for the balance of the fiscal year, and the company will be able to mitigate "most of the incremental margin pressure from higher tariffs and other input costs."

                    In the second quarter, the company opened 106 new stores.
                    • GitLab Inc. dropped 9% to $43.70, and the software developer’s net income swung to a loss in the latest quarter ending on July 31.

                      Consolidated revenue edged higher to $212.7 million from $163.2 million, net income swung to a loss of $10 million from a profit of $12.2 million, and diluted earnings per share swung to a loss of 6 cents from a profit of 8 cents a year ago.

                      The company guided third-quarter revenue to be between $238 million and $239 million, non-GAAP operating income between $31 million and $32 million, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share between 19 cents and 20 cents.

                      The company said customers with annual recurring revenue (ARR) over $5,000 grew 11% from a year ago to 10,338, while customers with ARR over $100,000 rose 25% to 1,344. 

                      The dollar-based net retention rate remained healthy at 121%, reflecting strong expansion within the existing customer base. 

                      Total remaining performance obligations (RPO) increased 32% year-over-year to $988.2 million, and current RPO grew 31% to $621.6 million, highlighting strong future revenue visibility.
                      • The Children’s Place, Inc., jumped 6.6% to $5.80 despite the children’s apparel and accessories retailer’s net income swinging to a loss in the latest quarter ending on August 2.

                        Consolidated revenue decreased 6.8% to $298 million from $319 million, adjusted net income swung to a loss of $3.4 million from a profit of $3.9 million, and adjusted diluted earnings per share swung to a loss of 15 cents from a profit of 30 cents a year ago.

                        Comparable retail sales fell 4.7% in the quarter, with the company attributing the decline to a challenging macroeconomic environment and tariff-related uncertainty, which dampened consumer sentiment and impacted both physical and online sales.

                        During the second quarter, the company opened one store and closed two, ending the period with 494 locations, down from 515 stores at the end of the same quarter last year.

                        “The tariff environment remains unpredictable. Based on the current environment, we are projecting approximately $20 million to $25 million in additional tariff and duty expenses for fiscal year 2025. 

                        However, we believe we are well-positioned to manage these impacts, having plans to mitigate approximately 80% of the effects of these tariffs through a range of strategic initiatives," said Muhammad Umair, President and Interim Chief Executive Officer.
