Let’s see how things have shaped up for the upcoming announcement.

Factors at Play

Atlassian’s fiscal third-quarter performance is expected to have benefited from the rising demand for remote working tools amid the coronavirus-led global lockdown.

The growing adoption of the company’s cloud-based solutions and massive digitalization of work from organizations, big or small, is likely to have driven its quarterly performance. Increasing demand for the company’s cloud products from new customers as well as the existing clients using on-premises products is a tailwind.

Healthy demand for core products like Jira and Confluence, coupled with the rising uptake of new products like Jira Service Desk, Jira Ops and Bitbucket, is expected to have been a key growth driver. Improvement in product quality and performance, multiple product launches and increased pricing are anticipated to have boosted quarterly revenues

Robust growth in subscription revenues, aided by the higher uptake of the company’s cloud-service offerings, is expected to reflect on the company’s to-be-reported results as a consistent key catalyst.
