Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: <_ALACRA_META_ABSTRACT>Yeah, absolutely. So I mean, a lot of us were on your Q3 earnings call last week, but maybe just to make sure we're all sort of
on the same page, could you just maybe recap some of the highlights from the quarter that you were most proud of?
Tomer Weingarten - SentinelOne Inc - Co-Founder, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board
Yeah. First and foremost, just net new error reacceleration and break away from seasonality, it's just exactly the dynamic that
we wanted to see. This is something that we've think, designed and planned probably, about three or four quarters ago in a
really conscious attempt to drive just a different trajectory to the business and to see that, really kind of, come to fruition
exactly as we imagined just gave us a lot of confidence that we can keep on doing that. If we stitch together the same
ingredients, the same motions, we can continue to drive acceleration in net new ARR and more than anything, I think that
seeing that, seeing the pipelines that we have, putting these two together, is just like a very different picture than the one that
we've had last year, and that to me is the most exciting part, seeing acceleration in the Endpoint business, not a super exciting
element of this.
Seeing that also continue and appear in forward pipelines, also really nice to see. I mean we've been very focused on driving
emerging business. This was becoming like 40% of our business almost in any given quarter, but now seeing Endpoint also
uptake, I mean that, that's a good boost to the business as well. So yeah, big deals, big customers, average deal sizes, just
creeping up significantly, that's exactly the dynamics that we want to see. I mean, we've been trying to drive the business to

go there. We've been telling you all about that, and I think was probably the most pronounced, I would say testament of these
initiatives.
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Definitely speaks to the strength of the products, over the years. Tomer, I want to start a little high level because I know you
spent a lot of time with customers and I just want to put July 19 aside for a second, right? The question is, what do you hear
from customers about their interest in Endpoint right now? It's been interesting to see we do a couple CIO surveys every year.
We ask about prioritization of different security areas, and Endpoint consistently comes out up at the top, what do you think
is driving that based on your conversations with the customers?
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Yeah, no, listen, I think that's thoughtful, and I think that punctuates one of the things that you said on the last call, which is,
the outage is certainly one factor in helping SentinelOne gain share, but it's not the only factor. But maybe looking at that
event, because I know we'll get the question, maybe looking at that event, I mean, you just sounded great about sort of the
pipeline.
What have you said of -- what have you seen about just around the size -- and I think you've also talked about the quality of
the pipeline. What have you seen around the size and quality of the pipeline compared to before the outage? How has that
changed? Whether it's from crowd strike displacements or just opportunities from other non-crowd strike --
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Maybe just to put a bow on the outage point, right, because again, I just want to make sure all these questions are asked. But
how do we feel about the momentum going into Q4 given everything that you've just said, because Q4 for that competitor as
well as a lot of other competitors, that ends up being a very heavy renewal quarter for them. I know that displacement is one
part of the pipeline, but those renewal opportunities are also great opportunities for you to take share. How is that playing
into your view on Q4?
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: And to your point, that was three or four quarters ago, well before the outage, right and that's (inaudible)
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Absolutely. I want to -- that's a great segue to go-to-market, right? And I think one of the areas that really enhances that go to
market is this Lenovo partnership, right, that you expanded, right? Can you just maybe walk through what the current partnership
sort of looks like and how that announcement in October enhanced it?

DECEMBER 11, 2025 / 9:20PM, S.N - SentinelOne Inc at Barclays Global Technology Conference
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: S super helpful framework there, Tomer, right? And I just want to make sure -- and sorry, it's probably a dumb question, but
why -- and we asked this question to Barbara on the last call as well. Why is it -- why would a Lenovo shipment just be a benefit
to revenue and not just ARR? Because if there's -- is it -- is there something around the deployment or anything -- maybe touch
on that a little bit.
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Yeah, very clear and very helpful. One of the areas that I want to touch on just that I think one of the most important topics
that came out of OneCon. It is sort of the momentum around non Endpoint solutions we've talked so much about Endpoint
that's obviously an accelerating business, but the non-Endpoint solutions like Data Lake, like Purple AI, like Cloud and Identity,
can you just remind us of the rough sizing of kind of that that in aggregate and maybe stack rank those in terms of opportunities
for growth.
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Yeah, absolutely. So maybe I want to use that to pivot to some financial questions here, right? So -- and I fully appreciate
you've just got so much more product, there's a net revenue retention opportunity there at the base as well, right? So let's
put all this stuff together. I mean, you still have tailwinds from the outage. You've got all these seeds that you've planted in
terms of go to market and who -- let's see how Lenovo sort of goes, but -- and we've kind of crossed the billion dollar. You're,
--yeah, you've crossed the billion dollar market in ARR, not looking for guidance here, but how should we think about sort of
the moving parts for arar next year, if you will.

DECEMBER 11, 2025 / 9:20PM, S.N - SentinelOne Inc at Barclays Global Technology Conference
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Yeah. It definitely feels that way. I mean, we've spent so much of the time just on growth and, Sentinel is a growth company
and that's why I wanted to focus there. But I also don't want to lose sight of the fact that, we're on track to achieve positive
free cash flow, I think, for the year. What are some of the drivers of that stronger free cash flow this year and how do you kind
of think about that growth trajectory going forward?
Yeah. I know that's a great question for Barbara too when we have her here next year at some point, but curious how you
think about that.
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Spoken like a technologist, yeah?
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Yeah, absolutely. I want to ask a couple of last questions here, but any questions here from the audience before we move
on? Can we get a mic here for -- just second.
Unidentified Participant
(inaudible) Is there a change in the go to market you might need to now make for that because is it harder to predict when
those land because the sales cycles may be longer or how are you handling that?
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Other questions here? I've got one last one. So just going back to, I mean, just the technology focus here and, I mean, we've
spoken so much about the organic growth here, Tomer. How do you think about sort of inorganic growth down the road in
terms of just opportunities to bolster the portfolio?
Question: Saket Kalia - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: Yeah, it feels like just heads down execution and focus.
