KIRA Β· Docusign had $3.2B of revenue in fiscal 2026, up 8.2% on the year before. Over five years, revenue changed +17.3% a year on average. Its operating margin was 9.3%, up 2.6Β pts: of every 100 in sales, about 9 is left after running the business.
In plain words: Revenue is all the money customers paid. The margins show how many cents of each dollar of sales are left over at each step: after making the product (gross), after running the business (operating) and after everything, tax included (net).

How much cash comes in, and where does it go?
KIRA Β· Free cash flow was $1.1B in fiscal 2026, 32.9% of revenue.
Cash from operations minus capital spending.

KIRA Β· In the last 12 months, insiders sold $10.6M of shares on the open market and bought none.
