Good day, ladies and gentlemen, and thank you for standing by. Welcome to Salesforce Signs Definitive Agreement to Acquire Tableau. (Operator Instructions) As a reminder, this conference call is being recorded for replay purposes.

It is now my pleasure to hand the conference over to Mr. John Cummings, Senior Vice President of Investor Relations. Sir, you may begin.

So with all of that, let me turn things over to you, Marc.

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

Okay. Well, thank you so much, John, and thank you, everyone, for being on the call this morning. And I could not be more excited about our acquisition of Tableau. We are bringing together the world’s #1 CRM with the #1 analytics platform, and the combination is truly the best of both worlds.

Tableau is just a phenomenal company, one that I have always very deeply admired. Its sole mission is to help people see and understand data. And those few powerful words, those 7 words, well, that drives everything they do at Tableau. And the company has done extremely well with that, becoming the #1 analytics platform that’s loved by its customers, it’s loved by its partners, it’s loved by its employees, and it’s especially loved by its incredible thriving community.

Tableau reminds me so much of Salesforce, and I’ve always connected with their mission because I see our mission as helping companies engage with and understand their customers. And with our intelligent Customer 360, which is surrounded by our own thriving ecosystem of customers, partners, employees and our own rapidly growing Trailblazer community, well, we connect companies with their customers in a whole new way.

For 16 years, Tableau has been transforming the way people use data to solve problems. It’s analytics for every business user, delivering powerful and insightful visualizations and business intelligence across all types of data, regardless of where it lives across all types of use cases in large and small organizations for all people regardless of their skill level.

I’ve been especially impressed that more than 86,000 organizations around the world, such as Charles Schwab, Verizon, Schneider Electric and Southwest Airlines, rely on Tableau to help them see and understand their data. Oh and by the way, those are all great Salesforce customers too. You probably know that. Well, that really got my attention. I speak to so many customers all around the world, and I’ll tell you what, they all love Tableau.

Another remarkable point of similarity is the [Tableau Community] (corrected by company after the call), which consists of more than 1 million data enthusiasts. They’re incredibly passionate about the company and telling stories with data. If you’ve seen public.tableau.com, this incredible website they have with all these amazing vizzes and their whole community of users and developers, it’s just amazing. You probably already know the amazing depth of the community and the platform. I think it’s really unique in our whole industry. I’ve really never seen anything quite like it. And it has continually impressed me with its tremendous innovation.

Combined with Salesforce’s community of 1.4 million Trailblazers all over the world who are transforming their businesses and their careers with Salesforce, well, we’ll have the largest community of digital business experts in the world. That is so cool. Millions of people transforming their companies, their careers, their world and their data.

IDC expects that digital transformation market will reach $1.8 trillion by 2022. And we have already seen firsthand that data and customers are the heart of every digital transformation. We’ve seen how data is the key to making Einstein’s incredible AI capabilities possible, bringing AI to everyone through the Salesforce Platform. And now Tableau and Einstein bring together 2 pivotal platforms that every customer needs to understand their world.

If you think about it and you talk to customers, they continue to reiterate that they’re on this path of amazing digital transformation. And as they do that, they’re going deeper and deeper into their ability to fully digitize their whole companies, their ecosystems, their customer relationships, all their data. And when they think about it, there really are 3 cornerstones, 3 cornerstones of digital transformation. And of course, from Salesforce’s perspective, it’s always been about the customer that every digital transformation begins and ends with the customer. That’s number one.

And then, you’ve got to hook all that data up together, and that’s why over a year ago, we acquired MuleSoft because they’re the #1 integration platform. So we thought that was a great idea. But at the end of the day, customers want to see and understand data. And that’s why Tableau is so powerful because they’re the #1 in that area. And putting those 3 things together, customer, integration and data, well, that is where the magic really starts to happen.

It’s really just simple. Tableau is all about people seeing and understanding their data, servicing actual insights for every business user. And Salesforce is all about helping people engage with and understand customers delivering connected, integrated, intelligent, customer experiences across every business process. And now together, we have the leading products in these most important categories, underlying digital transformation, the very cornerstones of digital transformation.

In 2020, the world will generate 50x the amount of data it did in 2011. Tapping into this massive data flow creates huge opportunities for economic and human advancement. To turn opportunities into reality, well, people need this information available all the time everywhere. They need the power to innovate faster, to drive intelligent connected customer experiences. They need to be able to see and understand data in a whole new way. And that is what we’ll provide with this great combination of Salesforce and Tableau.

We have a tremendous vision for the next decade with Customer 360 and Einstein and MuleSoft giving our customers a unified, intelligent, 360-degree view of their customers across every touch point, sales and service and marketing, e-commerce, communities and more. But now with Einstein, we have pioneered AI for CRM, making it easy to generate predictions and recommendations with just a few clicks.

We are the AI-powered analytics for sales and marketing. And now with Tableau, and Einstein together, Salesforce delivers the most intelligent and intuitive analytics and visualization platform for every department and for every user at any company. The combined value of the Tableau and Einstein together is extraordinary, and we’ll be able to deliver even more value as a combined company, as a combined community, and we’re also culturally aligned in our values with a relentless focus on customers’ success, a relentless focus on innovation and a relentless focus on giving back.

Let me close by saying that I’m just thrilled that we’ll be able to help Tableau accelerate its mission to help people see and understand data. Those powerful 7 words, there they are again. Tableau will operate independently as part of Salesforce led by Adam and his fantastic team. This combination will accelerate Salesforce’s mission as well. Tableau will make both Customer 360 and Einstein stronger than ever and enable us to reach a much broader set of customers and users.

I’m also excited to expand our presence in the Seattle area where Tableau is based. Do you know that Salesforce already has more than 1,000 employees in the Seattle and Bellevue area? And now we’re looking forward to joining forces with Tableau to expand our presence there. With Tableau, Seattle will become our second headquarters of Salesforce. It’s going to be our HQ2, if you will. So let me welcome the Tableau family to the Salesforce family.

And finally, I’m here at Salesforce Tower New York City, incredible Salesforce Tower New York City to celebrate the opening of our Ohana Floor tonight. I hope that you’re going to be able to join us to celebrate this opening. It’s going to be amazing, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. I’ll tell you, I’m looking out at the windows and the views right now, and the view is as gorgeous as a Tableau vizze. So look, I want to just thank everyone who is participating in this. It’s been an incredible partnership coming together with Adam. I’m so grateful to him.

And now let me turn this over to Adam.

Adam Selipsky Tableau Software, Inc.—CEO, President  & Executive Director

Thanks so much, Marc. Today marks momentous day for Tableau customers, for our partners and our employees. Tableau’s mission is to help people see and understand data. And with our end-to-end analytics platform, customers can drive impactful data-driven decisions from the massive amounts of data being unlocked in their digital transformation.

Over the last few years, we’ve achieved major milestones in our company history, from delivering on one of the fastest subscription transitions in software history to our rapidly growing enterprise business. So we’re just getting started. And with the incredible opportunity today to join forces with Salesforce, this is going to dramatically accelerate our mission of helping people see and understand data. What will not change as we move forward with Salesforce is our steadfast commitment to giving all of our customers unparalleled choice and flexibility and how they choose to connect to their data and how they deploy Tableau whether on premises, multiple public clouds or fully hosted analytic solutions.

As for Salesforce’s customers, the combination of the Salesforce’s Customer Success Platform and Tableau’s best-in-class analytics will help supercharge the digital transformation of millions of Trailblazers with the potential to enable Salesforce customers to surface deeper insights to drive their business forward faster.

For example, what if customers can get a 360-degree view of their business, their customers, their suppliers by combining all their data in the cloud and on premises? What if we could empower developers leveraging Salesforce’s platform to embed Tableau’s powerful analytics and their solutions across multiple industries and use cases? We’re also excited to explore ways to augment Tableau’s analytics platform with Salesforce’s Einstein capabilities and AI, voice and auto ML, which will accelerate our ability to help all customers deliver predictive and prescriptive analytics for their data-driven businesses. And personally speaking, I can’t wait to welcome so many new Trailblazers to our passionate and unique Tableau community of data geeks.

Lastly, as I’ve gotten to know Marc, Keith and the rest of the Salesforce management team over the past weeks, it has been actually remarkable to me how much our 2 companies share when it comes to our mission defined cultures: Our passion in serving customers, our desire to constantly push our innovation agendas forward and our ongoing dedication to giving back to our local and global communities.

Before I turn the call over, I’d also like to take this moment to thank each and every one of our employees and their brilliant hard work in getting us to where we are today. Thank you, team Tableau. And a big thank you as well to our Tableau community for their incredible enthusiasm and support. We would not be Tableau without you.

With that, let me turn the call over to Mark.

Mark J. Hawkins salesforce.com , inc. — President  & CFO

Well, thanks, Adam. And as the team outlined, this is a highly strategic transaction and will allow us to more deeply address the fastest growing analytics space by playing an even greater role in our customers’ digital transformation.

Let me discuss the transaction details. Salesforce and Tableau have entered into a definitive agreement under which Salesforce will acquire Tableau in an all-stock transaction with each of the shares of Tableau Class A and Class B common stock, they will be exchanged for 1.103 shares of Salesforce common stock, representing an enterprise value of $15.7 billion, based on a trailing 3-day volume weighted average price of Salesforce’s shares as of June 7, 2019. The transaction has been approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies.

Under the terms on the transaction, Salesforce will commence an exchange offer to acquire all the outstanding shares of Tableau. The acquisition of Tableau is expected to be completed during Salesforce’s fiscal third quarter ending October 31, 2019. This is subject to the customary closing conditions, including the tender by Tableau’s stockholders of shares representing the majority of the Tableau common stock voting power on a 1 vote per share basis and the receipt of regulatory approvals. Christian Chabot, Patrick Hanrahan and Christopher Stolte, the founders of Tableau, have all entered into an agreement with Salesforce in connection with the transaction and have indicated that they intend to tender all of their shares in exchange for the offer.

Turning to guidance. Assuming that Tableau transaction closes on or about October 1, 2019, we estimate Tableau will contribute approximately $350 million to $400 million in incremental revenue for the remainder of our fiscal ‘20. This estimate reflects a fair value adjustment to reduce unearned revenue and unbilled unearned revenue, which is off the balance sheet, by approximately 30%. The estimate also includes a provision for a modest level of business disruption in the weeks after the acquisition closes as well as other adjustments. In that context, we now expect to deliver revenue of $16.45 billion to $16.65 billion for 24% to 25% growth year-over-year.

We remain on track to organically deliver $26 billion to $28 billion in FY ‘23. We expect that Tableau will be additive in the long-term and will provide updates at our Investor Day this year, when we have a better visibility of the closing of Tableau transaction as we integrate this into the model of our long-range plan.

We expect this transaction to reduce our year-over-year FY ‘20 non-GAAP operating margins by approximately 75 basis points. Keep in mind, this estimate includes the onetime noncash accounting charge related to the acquisition of salesforce.org as well as the unearned revenue write-down and the related transaction integration costs associated with both transactions. Nevertheless, we will continue to drive improvement through our organic non-GAAP operating margin, consistent with the goals we established at the onset of FY ‘20.

As a result, we now expect FY ‘20 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $2.51 to $2.53. This estimate assumes fully diluted share count of approximately 900 million shares and a non-GAAP tax rate of 22.5% ⁽¹⁾ . Keep in mind, our guidance may change as we finalize purchase accounting following the close of the transaction. Also as a reminder, our EPS guidance assumes no future contribution from mark-to-market accounting as required by ASU 2016-01.

Turning to cash flow. We estimate that the acquisition of Tableau will slightly increase our operating cash flow, net of acquisition related expenses. And as a result, we now expect FY ‘20 year-over-year operating cash flow growth for the combined company in the range of 21% to 22%.

To close, I’m delighted by the opportunity to drive even greater levels of customer success and innovation along with Tableau, which we believe in turn creates long-term shareholder success. I’m excited to welcome everyone at Tableau to our Ohana. I’d like to thank our employees, our customers, our partners and our shareholders for your continued support. We look forward to updating you on this transaction.

With that, we’ll open up the call for questions.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Operator

(Operator Instructions) And our first question will come from the line of Jennifer Lowe with UBS.

Jennifer Alexandra Swanson Lowe UBS Investment Bank, Research Division—Analyst

Great. Congrats on the deal. The first question I had just is a lot of Tableau — Tableau has gone through the (inaudible) transition, but a lot of that business is still on-premise. Can you give us any color of how much of Tableau’s business at this point is truly running in the cloud versus subscription on-prem? And how should we expect that would look under Salesforce’s ownership, given Salesforce’s strong history as an advocate for the cloud?

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

So — well, I guess, one of the things — I’ll just start and I’ll let Mark finish. But one of the things that has really attracted to — us to Tableau is kind of their approach to the cloud. And of course, Salesforce has its own approach to the cloud, which has been very powerful. And we’ve actually learned a lot by working with Tableau and talking them during this time of how we’re coming together.

Tableau offers their customers tremendous flexibility. That is, it gives you the ability as a customer to decide. Do you want to consume it like Salesforce as a SaaS product as they certainly have that as a subscription service, directly off the net, easy with Tableau supplying the infrastructure? Then Tableau has this incredible capability, well, you can also run it on any major cloud service like AWS or like Google that’s easy to host as well. And then three, you may decide that because of the way that you’ve architected your data or your repository and the way you want to architect business intelligence or analytics or visualizations, you want to do that on-premise, Tableau gives you that flexibility as well. That is really powerful.

And I’ll tell you it was kind of a surprise to me because coming in — I knew Adam from AWS. He was with Amazon for more than a decade and is a pioneer, but he really convinced me that his vision of having kind of a multiple deployment capability for this specific technology is very powerful. And by the way, we also have that with MuleSoft as well. So this was really a leap for us and really helped to get even more excited about Tableau. And I’d love for Adam to comment on that and maybe Mark wants to fill this — in this well.

Adam Selipsky Tableau Software, Inc.—CEO, President  & Executive Director

Sure. Thanks, Marc. So all 3 of these deployment models that Marc just talked about are very important to our customers. We’re very committed to that customer flexibility and choice. We still do have a number of customers who wants to deploy on their own premises for lots of different reasons. At this point, over 1/3 of our server deployments are happening in the public cloud across all of those clouds that Marc referenced. And we also have over 10,000 Tableau online customers that are on fully managed SaaS offering. So all 3 models are alive and well and very robust.

And our next question will come from the line of Brad Zelnick with Crédit Suisse.

Brad Alan Zelnick Crédit Suisse AG, Research Division—MD

And I echo my congratulations on the exciting news. For Marc Benioff, Marc, I think we know from past disclosure, Tableau is a company that’s been on your interest list for some time now. What are the 1 or 2 most important benefits you get in owning the business versus a partnership? And why now with the stock at near an all-time highs?

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

Well, thanks so much. You’re absolutely, right. I’ve always been a major admirer of Tableau, and this company is really just a jewel in our industry from whether it’s really the perspective of the technology itself, the culture of the company, and the leadership team is incredible and also the community. I mean, from my perspective, those are really kind of the 3 incredible jewels of Tableau that are getting polished and that we really have the ability to do something incredible together.

And I think that we’ve tried to do something for a long time, and it’s just hard to get the stars to align. And I think that we’re fortunate that we got there. Our customers are looking to do a lot more in this area. There’s a huge pace of digital transformation going on today. I mentioned that in my script when I talked about the 3 cornerstones of digital transformation: Customer, integration and data.

And when I talk to some of our largest customers, I have to be completely — try to tell you exactly what they say to me, we’re talking about the Salesforce, we’re talking about all the different products they’re using Sales Cloud and Service Cloud and Marketing Cloud, and they’re using all of our various capabilities, and then they’ll start talking about how they’re using Tableau. And just in my mind, I’m like, wow, this was more deeply integrated as one motion, we could be satisfying a much bigger customer need. And that’s ultimately we want. We want to be able to come into the customer and have a completely strategic product line.

You’ll see on my Twitter feed that I put together a graphic that includes kind of our vision of Customer 360 and how Tableau fits within that and also kind of our core platform. And those 2 things together are quite unique in the industry. I don’t think anybody is really trying to do this. And for our customers, this is badly needed. They really want it. And I’m so excited that we’re able to put this together.

And then, the last thing I’ll just say is, I am a huge admirer of the talent market in Seattle. There’s very few places in the world today where you can put together software company at scale. And we know that because we’re all over the world. We’re throughout the United States, and we can see various levels of talent available in different markets. Seattle is really unique market and has this tremendous, tremendous talent. And so we’ve just easily grew 1,000 people there. Then when I was like, wow, Tableau not only do get this incredible customer capability but ability to make this geography a strategic part of Salesforce. That is something I’ve quested for a long time. So it’s those 2 things together. Adam, do you want to add anything?

Adam Selipsky Tableau Software, Inc.—CEO, President  & Executive Director

I think that that’s very well said. I mean I think there’s all sorts of potential for the great things we could do together. If you look at the product side, that’s tremendously interesting to us. In terms of being able to look at all the leading-edge technologies Salesforce has developed over the years and just the potential of what we might do with those amazing.

Salesforce’s dramatically impressive and large field presence around the world is something that we look forward to cooperating with deeply. And it’s just a great match between 2 companies. Between the cultures, we’re very similar in the values that we share, and that’s tremendously important to all the employees at Tableau, and it’s going to be important to the employees at Salesforce too. So it’s just a great match from a lot of different dimensions.

Operator

And our next question will come from the line of Kash Rangan with Bank of America.

Kasthuri Gopalan Rangan BofA Merrill Lynch, Research Division—MD and Head of Software

My apologies. Congratulations, Marc and the Tableau team on this transaction. Marc, you’ve got a tremendous track record with your acquisitions again: ExactTarget, Demandware and then MuleSoft most recently. I’m wondering if there’s any parallels. If you could look at this through the lens of Salesforce, what are the synergies for Tableau under Salesforce?

Is it similar to the MuleSoft transaction where there’s huge appetite for integration inside the installed base and you could just blow off that business? Not to put words in your mouth, but how do we think of this in the context of Microsoft trying to be more competitive in this market because they obviously see the opportunities here like you do, but how we should think about the synergies for Salesforce with Tableau being part of the fold? And congrats again.

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

Well, I think I really think about the synergies as very powerfully anchored around the customer. I mean, you know, Kash, that I’m constantly on the road with customers all over the world. COs, CIOs, I mean I’ve met with hundreds of them in the last just few months, probably thousands of them this year alone. And when I’m talking to those customers, they are really looking for me to help architect for them and I would say a complete digital transformation of their business and try to bring as many critical capabilities as necessary to achieve that.

That’s how so many of the advancements that we brought to the market have come through customer demand and motivation. Even like you could see a couple of weeks ago we launched blockchain, which is now a deeply integrated part of the Salesforce platform. Einstein, our Einstein Voice, our Einstein Vision, there’s so many capabilities that Salesforce is able to bring to bear to the customer.

And one area that I feel like we have need to go even more deeply in is the areas that Tableau is in, the areas of data. All aspects of data, data governance and data catalogs, business intelligence, the power of visualization, the power of usually building complex visualizations. And I’ll tell you, Kash, that you and I have always admired ease of use for a long time and how it’s come to enterprise software. If you look at public.tableau.com and look at some of these incredible applications or they call them vizzes, their visualizations, built by their community, I have honestly think it’s some of the most innovative work I’ve ever seen, not just in data or visualization, in our industry.

And I spent a lot of time actually on that site, public.tableau.com, even before we considered acquiring the company because I’ve been so inspired. I’ve been finding things that motivate my philanthropy. You’ll see stuff on oceans. You’ll see stuff on DNA. You’ll see stuff, of course, on business intelligence, on Salesforce, all kinds of things. And that’s where I’m like, wow, if we could really bring this into what Salesforce is doing, it would really take our community to a new level, give them the ability to execute this type of capability. But ultimately, it gets back to we are really all about this concept of digitally transforming our customers.

And when I think about those 3 cornerstones of digital transformation, I’m really trying to invest heavily in those 3 areas: In the customer, I think we’ve got the best solution in the market; in integration, again, I think we’re #1; and now with data. And as part of data, I’ll say intelligence because data and intelligence are tightly linked together, business intelligence and artificial intelligence.

And if you can bring all of that together to a customer, you can really do some incredible things for them and I think become a more strategic supplier to them than ever before, and that’s who Salesforce has really become or really becoming the leading supplier of digital transformation for the world’s largest and most important customers and really for what Tableau, all customers.

And our next question will come from the line of Raimo Lenschow with Barclays.

Raimo Lenschow Barclays Bank PLC, Research Division—MD  & Analyst

Congrats from me as well. Question on the overlap. Can you talk a little bit about what you’re seeing in terms of Tableau customer — Tableau and Wave customers? And in terms of how many accounts are you overlapping? And then also like how do you see the product evolving around those 2 because obviously you kind of were in the same market to same degree?

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

Well, I’ll kind of tap that, and then I’ll ask Bret Taylor to also give us his perspective. We, obviously, have gotten definitely our feet wet and gotten really excited about what potential is, especially in sales analytics. That is not just offering our customers reports and dashboards with CRM, which is something that we’ve done for 20 years. I guess, we’ve delivered millions of reports and dashboards for customers.

And then, we’ve also extended that with our own, as you said, kind of Wave analytics and the ability to have that capability as well has been tremendously successful for our sales analytics customers. But our focus is mostly been on our product, and it’s mostly been on really amplifying some of those core capabilities and giving our customers unique insights into those core data sets.

The way I look at Tableau is they have a bigger mission. Their mission is to help the world to see and understand data. It’s a bigger idea. If you go to that public.tableau site, their visualizations — what they’re able to do and how they see it, it’s highly complementary to what we’re doing, and it also touches everything in the world. And that, again, I think is what’s so exciting to me. Bret, would you like to comment on that?

Bret Steven Taylor salesforce.com, inc.—President  & Chief Product Officer

Yes. I think that’s exactly right, Marc. We’re incredibly proud of the impact we’ve had with Einstein Analytics on sales and service and market analytics with Datorama. And now with Tableau, we’re really expanding it to enable analytics and intelligence and data literacy for every department and every user and every company.

The way I think about this is very similar to the way we thought about MuleSoft. With MuleSoft, you could unlock the data at your company and have a strategic integration platform that can really enable you to transform your customer experience faster. And now with Tableau, we can go to every single department and every single user and enable them to help see and understand data, which is Tableau’s mission.

And you combine that with the Customer 360 platform, and these customers can do the digital transformation, which starts and ends with the customer faster and enable everyone participate in that transformation to be literate in data. And we think that’s a really, really powerful value proposition. And we think expanding beyond our cloud of this really broad, data visualization and comprehension capability that goes to every single employee, we think that’s a really, really strategic place to enter into these customer conversations.

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

Bret, can I just ask you how — obviously, you’ve done just tremendous work now with Einstein, the Einstein Vision capability just demonstrated at TrailheaDX, Einstein Voice, which is getting deployed now to all of our customers as well as the kind of the deep learning and machine learning capabilities of Einstein. How do you see that, that is going to augment this vision of what you want to do with Tableau?

Bret Steven Taylor salesforce.com, inc.—President  & Chief Product Officer

The thing that I think we’ve been really sharing from our customers is just how powerful this platform has become over the years. We’ve got mobile. We’ve got the best artificial intelligence platform in Einstein. We’ve got Vision. We’ve got Voice. We’ve got Security. We’ve got local builders so that any member of our Trailblazer community can build these applications easily with clicks, not code. We’ve got connections, the Internet of Things and now at TrailheaDX, we have blockchain.

Now with this acquisition of Tableau, that entire community, that million-plus strong Trailblazer community will join together with the incredible Tableau community that you referenced on public.tableau.com, and they’re going to have now this capability to build these incredible visualizations and empower every single member of the organization to be empowered to see and understand data.

We think that combination is incredibly unique. And I think the key differentiator in this is these communities. It’s something, I think, is really defining and differentiating characteristic of both companies. And I think I’m really excited to see what happens when those communities come together, and they are empowered to use this entire portfolio of technologies to transform the customer experience.

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

Well, Bret, I really agree with you. And I’ll tell you it reminds me, just 2 weeks ago, I was with a customer in Minneapolis, a fairly large customer of ours, and we were talking about some of their agriculture products and things they were doing and helping to make farmers more successful, but also giving consumers visibility into their supply chains. And it was really powerful for me to be in the meeting because for the first time I was able to talk about that they were going to build that food traceability from consumer to farmer using blockchain. And they were tapping into voice-based user interfaces. And they, of course, had IoT built into the platform, and they were using our new Vision capability in the retail environment as well as building these amazing applications with some of these new tools you just deployed.

And I’ll tell you the cool thing was with the heavy use of AI in the application as well as some of your new security and mobile features that you just released at Trailhead. But at the end of the meeting, they turned to me, and they said, and they started to take this Vision and then they said, now we’re going to build this incredible Tableau interface on top of all of it and really help us to see and understand the whole ecosystem that we’re building. And I just was saying to myself, wow, this just comes together and fits so well.

And our next question will come from line of Sarah Hindlian with Macquarie.

Sarah Emily Hindlian Macquarie Research—Senior Analyst

One of the things I’d love to dig into is a little bit more, in particular, about how your go-to-market is kind of evolve around this product. Certainly, I could see the defined office use cases. But how are you thinking about continuing to move Tableau into back office?

And then I’d like a follow-up also from Mark. Just in terms of operating margin expansion, 75 basis points of headwind on fiscal year ‘20. What is your ongoing commitments to deliver on non-GAAP operating margin expansion?

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

Okay. Well, let me start by trying to address the vision of go to market for the platform. And I think that Bret actually kind of hit this really well, which is, if you see how Tableau is used, and of course, I’ve mentioned this public site quite a few times now and encouraging all of you to go there to really understand Tableau by going to public.tableau.com that gives you so many great examples. You could see, it’s such a broad product, and you can really do so much with its capability.

When they say that their mission is to help people see and understand data, it’s not limited to one type of person or one type of company or one type of geography or one type of industry, I mean the proof is in the pudding. You can see on that website the broad brush that it has, and we want to continue to amplify that and expand that and give them that ability to do as much as they want. We want to accelerate their mission. This is very important to me personally. I’m such a big believer in them and what they’ve done.

And then I’ll turn this over to Mark, but I’ll just tell you from the CEO perspective. We’re very deeply committed to expanding our operating margin. And as evidence of that, you can just look at that over the ark of the last 20 years. In fact, in our last public results, I think it actually just hit a new high.

And our goal is to do exactly that is to continue to incrementally improve our operating margin, while we are creating the fastest, I think, one of the very fastest growing enterprise software companies of all time. And I think you can all see now, and we have a lot of strong financial analysts on the call with us, how we are going to take these 2 companies, and we are really fast tracking to create a company that will be a $30 billion powerhouse in enterprise software. It’s very exciting.

Mark J. Hawkins salesforce.com, inc.—President  & CFO

Yes, let me just add to that, Marc. Thank you, Sarah, for the question. Absolutely, we have the commitment to continuing to expand our non-GAAP operating margin improvement. As Marc said, if you just look at the vector over the last 5 years, we just persistently moved forward. We’re really obviously focused even, as we speak, on driving our organic operating efficiencies even today. Obviously, we’re taking on over the course of this transaction in .org $200 million noncash accounting charge onetime, DRO write-downs, billed and unbilled transaction cost, integration costs, but operationally, we’re unwavering in our focus to drive efficiencies in the business, and it’s exactly as Marc talked. So thank you for asking that. You should expect that from us.

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

And Mark, you do have to just comment that in our last quarter results you just hit some new numbers there that were just extremely exciting.

Mark J. Hawkins salesforce.com, inc.—President  & CFO

Yes, we try to always kind of modestly look at that and make our progress. I personally felt very good about that because of the progress we met. When we hit that level of operating margin, it shows the persistence we have been.

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

And you also hit some amazing new records with cash flow.

Mark J. Hawkins salesforce.com, inc.—President  & CFO

Cash flow, we grew our cash flow 34% year-on-year. So you can see the persistence on the cash flow, the cash conversion cycle. You can see the persistence on expanding our core organic operating margin capability, and you can see the quality of our balance sheet and the strength of our company. So we’re very pleased to do this, and we’re obviously focused on the future and, as Sarah is asking about, continuous improvement.

And our next question will come from Walter Pritchard with Citi.

Walter H Pritchard Citigroup Inc, Research Division—MD and U.S. Software Analyst

Question for Marc or maybe for Bret. Just in terms of thoughts generally, getting into new markets and organic development versus M&A, it feels like there are lot of assets given what we’ve seen in software over the last 5 years, lots of new companies and so forth. How aggressively should we expect you to fill out your vision over time with M&A versus organic development? It seems like this deal may represent a change there?

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

Well, it really doesn’t represent a change. To be honest with you, we’re excited to be able to get a deal done when we can get a deal done. I think in this environment, you’d be surprised, and I got some messages from some friends of mine this morning, and I don’t think that they realize that actually getting — finding 2 companies that can come together like this is actually kind of a miracle. I mean, unlike Adam to kind of mention that — talk about that in a second, but it’s about really finding people who can work together, cultures that will come together, products that work together, common customer bases, brand values, it’s a miracle when you can make all of it happen.

Sometimes you’re kind of baking it within the company, like that’s an example of MuleSoft honestly. I love MuleSoft from the beginning. We are venture capitalists in MuleSoft. We kind of — we were cheering them on and helping align with them and bringing them to our customers and showing them what to now we shall say showing them what to do but kind of guiding them. And so it was a natural acquisition for us. They were already part of our Salesforce family. In this case, this is kind of Tableau, I would say, is kind of a brother from another mother, which is it’s an incredible company that’s so similar to who we are. Anyway, Adam would you just talk about that?

Adam Selipsky Tableau Software, Inc.—CEO, President  & Executive Director

Yes. I think, we very quickly felt the same sentiment. I mean, the first thing I think you look for and I try to find that miracle that Marc referenced. It is our common vision. Are you trying to get to the same place? And for both companies, we really anchored that completely around the customer. We talk about being relentlessly customer focused, Marc and his team talk about customer success at the heart of what they do. And it’ll be very hard for us to have this kind of partner who didn’t look at the world through that same lens.

So there are those really philosophical attributes which are incredibly important. And then, as we got deeper into it, I think the shared cultural elements and the shared values became incredibly important because neither company is going to do much for their customers without a great, hardworking, smart group of employees that’s ever growing. And in order to have that, we really have to have values that resonate with those employee bases and cultures, which feel positive and feel like they matter.

And the cultural similarities are amazing. As I mentioned earlier just the focus on customers but also the focus on having empowered employees who are learning and are challenged and growing. And then, of course, giving back to the communities. We’ve had our Tableau Foundation for years and are trying to do things like eliminating malaria in Africa. Salesforce, I think their record in terms of giving back to their communities and trying corporate leadership in many different areas of that is unparalleled. And things like that really gave us confidence that we were thinking the same way and could head to the same great places together.

Operator

And our last question will come from the line of Keith Bachman with Bank of Montréal.

Keith Frances Bachman BMO Capital Markets Equity Research—MD  & Senior Research Analyst

Marc Benioff, I’d just like to direct this to you, if I could, at 2 different levels on the proposed transaction this morning. One of Tableau’s primary value propositions is not only the visualization and surfacing data but also drawing data from a variety of different sources, so really empowering data and environments from SAP from Oracle, from IBM. And so how do you think about the strategic fit with the idea that Tableau is certainly chartered to help a broad ecosystem, in other words, much more than Salesforce installed base?

And then the second part of the question. As you think about the customer, the specific customer within large organizations, I think who buys Tableau is very different from the person that buys Salesforce. And so if you could just speak to those key elements of strategy — but certainly first and foremost is Tableau is a multiplatform ecosystem. So how does that line up with the longer-term goals of Salesforce?

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

Well, thanks for that question. And I guess, if we were on the call a year ago with MuleSoft and we look back at the script, I’m thinking we had the exact same question. There is a question of, well, gee, MuleSoft really is all about connecting to an ecosystem of data and connects to lots of different data sources like SAP, Microsoft and Amazon and Google and Workday and ServiceNow and so many companies, and how do you plan to address that?

And it was kind of a shock to me actually because when I have the question, it was kind of like somehow people think that we wouldn’t connect to those companies or wouldn’t support all those companies or that we would do something to cut them off. And I think that maybe that’s because in the past the way some of the traditional enterprise software companies have behaved have been so kind of draconian in their own practices. Even today, some of those kind of older companies, started in the ‘70s, they kind of operate in this kind of strange behavior.

But anyone who have seen how we’ve acted with MuleSoft, of course, we always maintain a beginner’s mind. It’s kind of a core part of who we are, and we have not only maintained and enhanced the ecosystem that MuleSoft connects to but we’ve added to it. And we’ve done some incredibly innovative work to make sure that MuleSoft connects the worlds.

By the way, MuleSoft coming together with Tableau, that’s just a beautiful thing. I mean Tableau will have access to all that data as well as those both technologies come together, MuleSoft is such a powerful, powerful kind of octopus, if you will, it’s got tentacles into everything and then the ability then to kind of see and understand all of the things that are going on in MuleSoft, well, I can’t wait to see what Tableau can do there.

In regards to the buyer, well, I guess that you could make a case that there is a data analyst or a visualization expert or business intelligence expert and that those are the buyers and companies, and certainly, those are people that we speak to a regular basis. You could say that they’re discrete. Well, we’re planning to continue fully and enhance and invest in Tableau’s existing go-to-market capabilities. I mean we’re going to plan to put that thing on overdrive.

But I will tell you something that I think maybe is incorrect in your question, which is that a lot of the customers that buys Salesforce and a lot of the relationships that we have not just CO relationships, CIO relationships, wider business relationships are people who want to acquire this type of technology.

I know because as I kind of prepared and think about relationships and acquisitions like the one we’re announcing today, in my mind, I’m always kind of trialing — trial ballooning kind of with those customers, they don’t know what I’m thinking but I do, where I say, no, well, if we have this kind of a product, is that interesting? If we have that kind of a product, is that interesting? And it is just a natural fit between Salesforce and Tableau. And I just noticed on social media the tremendous acceptance by our customers just in the last hour since we’ve announced of these technologies.

I’m just finishing the book right now called Trailblazer, which we just put the preorder up on Amazon, and I actually talk quite a bit about that content of beginner’s mind because I didn’t think that it is something that Salesforce has been able to maintain over 20 years, and it’s so important to us putting something like this together, but also participate in what our customers and asking them, what do they really want. I mean that’s really the heart of the beginner’s mind, and seeing these 2 companies come together, I think, is a vision for a future Salesforce that is so exciting. And you’ll see on the tweet that I wrote, I made a little diagram that is our Customer 360 and a vision for our platform and how Tableau fits so beautifully inside there.

Well, anyway, we’re kind of coming down to the end of the hour, and I just want to reinforce we’ve got a gorgeous new Salesforce Tower in New York City happening here, and we have the Ohana Floor opening tonight. So Adam, I don’t think you’re going to able to come because I think you’re going to stay up in Seattle, right? You’re busy today. But for the rest of you who are in New York...

Adam Selipsky Tableau Software, Inc.—CEO, President  & Executive Director

(inaudible)

Marc R. Benioff salesforce.com, inc.—Co-Founder, Chairman  & Co-CEO

But for the rest of you who are here in New York City, we welcome you for 6:00 to 9:00 tonight. We have a great party on the top floor. You can see what we did with this MetLife Building. We’re very grateful to our customer, MetLife, who actually came to us and said that they wanted to turn this building over to us, so thank you to Stephen.

You’re going to see a beautiful new Salesforce Tower Ohana Floor. And as you know, our Ohana Floors, we use them, of course, during the day with customers and do events like this one. But at night, we turn them over for free to nonprofits and NGOs. And the success of the Ohana Floor in San Francisco is an indication, I think, this Ohana Floor will be doing a lot of good in the world, and that we’re looking forward to turning it over to nonprofits and NGOs here in New York City. We’re trying to raise money and amplify their operations. And we know a lot of those because there’s over 40,000 nonprofits and NGOs who run on Salesforce for free, and we’re looking forward to seeing everybody tonight.

So with that, I’ll end the call. Thank you very much, everybody.

Mark J. Hawkins salesforce.com, inc.—President  & CFO
