Why Is HashiCorp (HCP) Stock Down 22% Today?

HashiCorp (NASDAQ:HCP) stock is falling on Friday after the cloud infrastructure automation solutions released its fiscal Q3 2024 earnings report.

Navam Welihinda, CFO of HashiCorp, said the following in the earnings report.

“In Q3 of FY24, we achieved meaningful progress on our path to profitability, with our first quarter as a company with positive Non-GAAP EPS. I’m pleased with our performance in improving efficiency and increasing free cash flow, and we are seeing success from the steps we’re taking to realize further operating leverage in our business.”
