How to read these numbers

Challenge rate is the share of questions that pushed back, pressed for specifics or questioned management’s assumptions. It describes how questions were asked on the calls tracked here; it does not measure whether any view turned out to be right.

Rounding. Rates are rounded to whole percentages, so a small share can show as 0% even when some questions were challenging. The count beside each rate is exact; “none of N questions” means no question was challenging.

No questions recorded. “—” means there is nothing to calculate: no questions were recorded for that period on the calls tracked here. It does not mean there was no activity.

Fewer than 3 questions. A company-level rate is withheld when fewer than 3 questions were recorded for that company; the questions are still counted everywhere else.

Small samples. Profiles with fewer than 10 questions are marked Limited sample.

Reporting periods. Questions are grouped by the calendar quarter each company’s fiscal reporting period maps to, not by the date of the call. Periods without a calendar mapping are listed separately under their fiscal label.

Calendar 2026 Q3

in these new kind of wins and environments with hyperscalers, like what exactly are you displacing?

ChallengingCompetitive DynamicsProduct LaunchTranscript · FY2027 Q2 →
Show response

Charlie and Rob explained DirectFlash is displacing SSDs on power, performance, density and reliability, extendable to HDDs when pricing normalizes.

Calendar 2026 Q2

can you just elaborate a bit on what you're hearing from hyperscalers in this environment

DemandCompetitive DynamicsTranscript · FY2027 Q1 →
Show response

CEO said the DFM replaces both SSDs and HDDs (HDDs sold out through 2028); hyperscalers are desperate for storage capacity of any type, raising qualification urgency, though qualification and NAND availability still gate timing.

Calendar 2026 Q1

the philosophy or the approach you took behind setting your full year guidance

Guidance ReliabilityDemandTranscript · FY2026 Q4 →
Show response

CFO said the FY27 guide reflects pipeline strength and near-term demand visibility (good for a couple of quarters, harder beyond), the Feb 9 price increases timed for full-year benefit, and back-half-weighted hyperscaler revenue.

Calendar 2025 Q4

why or if demand elasticity in your markets could be different this time versus 2017 or '21?

Show response

CEO said prior cycles saw commodity pricing affect the top line (market size/growth) far more than Pure's gross margin, which it manages well; higher prices could modestly constrain terabyte demand but AI lifts overall data demand.

Calendar 2025 Q3

double click on when you say the potential for possibly more than one to two exabytes for Meta this year.

Revenue GrowthGuidance ReliabilityTranscript · FY2026 Q2 →
Show response

CFO said 'possibly more' mainly signals confidence in the 1-2 exabyte range for FY26; work with Meta continues, revenue won't be material this year, and updates will follow as Q3/Q4 execute.
