PagerDuty Q1 Earnings: Still Struggling

PagerDuty delivered Q1 revenue of $121 million, narrowly beating estimates but showing less than 1% year-over-year growth. Key business metrics are deteriorating: ARR was flat, large-customer counts declined, and DBNRR fell below 100%, signaling that churn is outpacing expansion. Despite weak growth, PD announced a $100 million buyback, which could reduce the share count meaningfully, but it raises a debate over capital allocation versus growth investments.
