Salesforce continues to impress, with another strong quarter with revenue and profitability ahead of our expectations. We fine-tuned our model over the next couple of years with profitability moving tad higher, offset by slightly lower growth, resulting in an unchanged fair value estimate of $245. Shares look attractive especially in light of the modest selloff in the aftermarket, and the stock remains one of our top picks.

No. CRM does not currently have a forward dividend yield.
Dividend yield allows investors, particularly those interested in dividend-paying stocks,
to compare the relationship between a stock’s price and how it rewards stockholders through dividends.
The formula for calculating dividend yield is to divide the annual dividend paid per share by the stock price.

CRM’s market cap is 209.71 Bil.
Market capitalization is calculated by taking a company’s share price and multiplying it by the total number of shares.
It’s often used to measure a company’s size. In the Morningstar Style Box, large-cap names account for the
largest 70% of U.S. stocks, mid-cap names account for the largest 70–90%, and small-cap names are the remaining 10% of companies.

CRM’s stock style is Large Growth.
Style is an investment factor that has a meaningful impact on investment risk and returns.
Style is calculated by combining value and growth scores, which are first individually calculated.
High-growth stocks tend to represent the technology, healthcare, and communications sectors. They rarely distribute dividends to shareholders, opting for reinvestment in their businesses. More value-oriented stocks tend to represent financial services, utilities, and energy stocks. These are established companies that reliably pay dividends.

CRM’s price/sales is 6.65.
Price/sales represents the amount an investor is willing to pay for a dollar generated from
a particular company’s sales or revenues.
CRM’s price/forward earnings is 566.61.
Forward P/E gives some indication of how cheap or expensive a stock is compared with consensus earnings estimates.
The lower the Forward P/E, the cheaper the stock.
CRM’s price/book is 3.66.
Price/book ratio can tell investors approximately how much they’re paying for a company’s assets,
based on historical, rather than current, valuations. Historical valuations generally do not reflect
a company’s current market value. Value investors frequently look for companies that have low price/book ratios.
See CRM’s valuation ratios compared to the Market Index.
CRM’s beta can be found in Trading Information at the top of this page.
A stock’s beta measures how closely tied its price movements have been to the performance of the overall market.
