Salesforce Aims for Over $63 Billion Revenue by 2030

Salesforce announced at its Dreamforce conference in San Francisco that it aims to generate more than $63 billion in revenue for the fiscal year ending 2030, surpassing analyst forecasts of $59.2 billion.

Financial outlook

The target follows a clear rebound after a turbulent year marked by concerns over AI’s impact on the cloud‑software market. The company posted earnings ahead of expectations, boosted by $2.6 billion in strategic investment gains, most notably its stake in AI firm Anthropic.

These results drove the stock up roughly 23%, the best performance since 2020, and CEO Marc Benioff highlighted Salesforce’s full backing of the sector’s radical transformation.

AI initiatives

Salesforce launched the Claudeforce platform, enabling customers to combine their data with Anthropic’s Claude model, and unveiled the “Koa” AI solution built on Nvidia technology to deliver smart dashboards that link directly to Salesforce services.

Over 1,000 clients have signed up for the Claude trial, according to Applications and Marketing head Patrick Stokes. Revenue chief Alexa Finioni noted that Slack, acquired for $27.1 billion in 2021, now serves as a primary hub for AI agents within enterprises.

Taking advantage of a lower share price, the firm has repurchased $60 billion of stock to date, while COO Miguel Milanó said market balance is returning and “SaaSpocalypse” fears are fading.
