The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~December 1, 2026 (estimated)

Gitlab Inc.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 23.0% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 20.3%. Where it stands out: gross margin of 85.8% ranks 3 of 32 systems software companies we cover. Where it lags: stock pay as % of revenue of 21.8% ranks 29 of 36 systems software companies we cover.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow grew 496.3% while net income fell 479.8%: a 976pp divergence.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Fast growth. Revenue grew 23.0% over the last 12 months, against a median of 16.9% for systems software companies we cover.
  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 3.2 points on a year ago.
  • Strong cash generation. 20.3% of revenue turned into free cash flow, against a median of 17.3% for systems software companies we cover.
  • Net cash. Cash exceeds long-term debt by $0.2bn.
  • Beating expectations. Earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters.

Things to watch

  • Loss-making. Operating margin is -8.5%: costs exceed revenue.
  • Heavy stock-based pay. Stock pay equals 21.8% of revenue, against a median of 8.5% for systems software companies we cover: a real cost that cash-flow figures leave out.
  • Share dilution. Diluted shares rose 4.2% in a year.
  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 60% and a beta of 1.0 against the S&P 500.
  • Gross margin slipping. Gross margin is down 2.8 points on a year ago.

Fundamentalytics rating

model v1.6 · 2026-11-03

Not rated: valued with our growth model, which doesn't carry a Buy/Hold/Sell rating yet.

Valuation models

We value Gitlab Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 10.7%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.28 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Growth cash-flow model Revenue for this year and next from analysts' consensus, then growth fading to 2.5%; the operating margin moving to profitable peers'; investment needed per dollar of growth from peers; reduced by a failure probability. For young or fast-growing companies. The starting margin is normalized to between -100% and 60%; net margin is a proxy when operating income is not tagged. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$4.0 ~$2.9–$4.9 Left out: out of range vs price (0.08x)
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$17 ~$12–$34 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: the model gives no positive value
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. — Does not apply: return on equity is not positive
Forward price-to-sales vs peers Next year's consensus sales per share times peers' typical forward price-to-sales; only when earnings are negative. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$27 ~$27–$62 Included, half weight
Revenue-to-maturity model Revenue grown to maturity with the cash margin moving to the industry's; for companies not yet profitable. ~$23 ~$19–$28 Included
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (growth cash-flow model) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. ~$21 ~$17–$27 3 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Gitlab Inc. with Systems Software in our coverage, using third-party market data. Model values are estimates under stated assumptions, updated as new filings arrive; not price targets or investment advice. How each model works.

Moat

48 /100

Moderate moat

How hard Gitlab's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 6 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 4 / 20

    Cash operating profit has been a median 4.6% of total assets over 5 years.

  • Pricing power 20 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 88.4%, moving by 1.1 percentage points (standard deviation) across 6 years.

  • Durability 10 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median -34.2%; its worst year was -106.3%.

  • Cash conversion 8 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 3 of 5 years, at a median 4.2% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (53 before it).

A rules-based reading of reported figures, not a forecast and not investment advice. How the score is built: methodology.

Forecasts and guidance

Next results: December 1, 2026, after the close. Analysts expect revenue of $283m and EPS of $0.20 (range $0.19 to $0.22) for the quarter.

Source: SEC EDGAR XBRL company facts (US and foreign periodic filings); column headings link to the filing. EBITDA is operating income plus depreciation and amortisation. Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Growth is left blank when last year's figure was a loss or under 2% of revenue. Share counts and EPS are restated for stock splits. A dash means the company didn't report the figure.
