ServiceNow CEO Bets Big on AI Growth, Dismisses Threats as 'Parlor Tricks'
ServiceNow beat Q1 expectations and raised 2026 subscription revenue guidance to about $15.7–$15.8B (roughly 22%), driven by accelerating AI product adoption and the $8B Armis acquisition; CEO Bill McDermott labels AI threats as 'parlor tricks' and expects AI-related sales to reach at least $1.5B in 2026, while the stock fell about 13% after hours due to Middle East deal headwinds and margin questions.
