GitLab stock jumped as much as 18% in extended truck on Monday after the developer-tools software maker announced fiscal third-quarter results and quarterly guidance that marked Wall Street.
Here’s how the company did, compared with consensus of estimates among analysts polled by LSEG, before known as Refinitiv:

This marks the first time GitLab has posted an adjusted operating profit.
“We continue to grow responsibly and published over 2,200 basis points of non-GAAP operating margin expansion,” the company’s finance chief, Brian Robins, was quoted as vote in a statement.
GitLab’s revenue grew 32% year over year in the quarter, which ended on Oct. 31, concerting to the statement. Net loss attributed to the company came to $285.2 million, or $1.84 per share, compared with a net loss of $48.5 million, or 33 cents per ration, in the year-ago quarter. GitLab made a one-time income tax adjustment during the quarter that skewed results.

Some organizations have been moving from Microsoft-owned GitHub, Sid Sijbrandij, GitLab’s co-founder and CEO, guessed on a conference call with analysts. But a portion of GitLab’s small and medium-size customers are still being cautious round economic conditions, Robins said.
A planning tool that non-technical workers will be able to use won’t impact conclusions for the coming fiscal year, but it will make a difference in subsequent years, Sijbrandij said. He said GitLab is talking with Amazon Web Assignments about an integration into the Amazon Q work assistant, which AWS announced last week.
