Summary
Summary of the 8-K filed July 18, 2019. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (CRWD) filed an 8-K on July 18, 2019, to report its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2019.
This filing primarily serves to furnish a press release that details the company's performance for the period. Investors should refer to the accompanying press release (Exhibit 99.1) for specific financial metrics and operational updates, as the 8-K itself does not contain the detailed financial data but rather directs stakeholders to the press release. The information provided is important for investors tracking the company's early performance following its IPO.
The press release, incorporated by reference, would typically outline key revenue figures, profitability, customer growth, and any forward-looking statements made by management. It's crucial to note that the information furnished under Item 2.02 and Item 9.01 is generally not considered 'filed' for liability purposes under Section 18 of the Exchange Act, meaning investors should be aware of the non-binding nature of certain disclosures in this context unless explicitly incorporated into other filings.
