Where BRZE is headed
By late 2027, Braze will have crossed the profitability Rubicon. The company should be running at a ~$650M revenue run-rate with operating margins approaching breakeven or slightly positive, driven by operating leverage on a maturing sales motion and expanding enterprise deals. The $165M in free cash flow already tells you the real economics of this business are far better than the GAAP P&L suggests — stock-based compensation is masking a fundamentally healthy cash-generating engine. Net revenue retention should stabilize in the 115-120% range as enterprise customers layer on AI-powered personalization, Canvas orchestration, and the newer data products.
