# Salesforce investors need patience as sales catch up

By Matt Britzman — 2025-12-04

Matt Britzman, senior equity analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown, said: “Salesforce shares are up a couple of per cent after hours as strong order intake stole the spotlight, even as underlying revenue growth guidance stayed flat and sluggish.

“Overall sales came in slightly below expectations, but demand trends looked healthy with solid growth in bookings.

“AI-driven products were the standout, with rapid adoption highlighting Salesforce’s push into next-generation tools.

“Still, management signalled that faster revenue growth is at least a year away.

“For investors, the message is clear: strong demand and AI traction could support the stock, but patience will be needed as sales catch up.”
