A notable development from the announcement was the authorisation for the repurchase of up to USD $1.5 billion of Zoom's Class A common stock. Eric S. Yuan, Founder and CEO of Zoom, said, "In FY24, we unveiled Zoom AI Companion, our generative AI digital assistant, aimed at boosting productivity, enhancing team effectiveness, and fostering skill development across the Zoom platform."
"We are committed to democratising AI accessibility, offering it to all our customers regardless of business size, included at no extra charge with a paid license," said Yuan.
The company's team is dedicated to innovation throughout the platform, introducing hundreds of new features, including those for the Zoom Contact Center. This is aimed at redefining the gold standard for customer experience. While delivering considerable innovation for customers, Zoom also drove strong profitability and grew its free cash flow, with an increase of 24.1% YoY to USD $1,471.9 million for the full fiscal year. This represented a free cash flow margin of 32.5%.
Key drivers of total revenue included acquiring new customers and expanding existing relationships. As of the end of Q4 of the fiscal year 2024, Zoom had approximately 220,400 Enterprise customers, marking a 3.5% YoY increase. It also had a trailing 12-month net dollar expansion rate for Enterprise customers standing at 101%. The company had 3,810 customers contributing more than $100,000 in trailing 12 months' revenue, representing an approximate 9.8% rise from the same quarter last fiscal year.
