Zscaler sells cloud-based cybersecurity software focused on network and access security, including zero-trust protection for organizations and their users. It makes money primarily by providing recurring access to its software platform rather than by selling traditional hardware. The supplied evidence does not provide a segment breakdown or the approximate contribution of individual products. Zscaler serves enterprise and organizational customers and has reached substantial scale: fiscal 2025 revenue was $2.7 billion, up from $2.2 billion in fiscal 2024. Net income was approximately breakeven in fiscal 2025, compared with a $0.1 billion loss in fiscal 2024.
Zscaler rose 7.06%, from $174.95 to $187.30, despite a sharp early-week reversal. After closing at $181.75 on August 21, the stock fell to $176.06 on Monday and $168.42 on Tuesday, then recovered modestly to $170.31 Wednesday. Thursday brought a 9.98% surge, with trading volume rising to 3.99 million shares, as Nvidia’s earnings boosted technology stocks and strong results and outlook increases from CrowdStrike and Okta lifted cybersecurity peers. The broader Nasdaq 100 gained 1.43% Thursday. Zscaler-specific news did not explain the move; the evidence instead points to sector and market momentum, with the stock recovering more than its early-week losses.
