The performance in the second quarter benefitted from the addition of more than 6,500 customers, which included clients who joined as a result of Atlassian’s acquisition of Opsgenie. The company closed the acquisition in October last year for $295 million.
“The quarter highlighted the growing demand for Atlassian products to drive digital transformation in businesses large and small. Our flagship product, Jira Software, surpassed 65,000 customers, and we ended the quarter with more than 138,000 total customers, underscoring the growth opportunity for Jira just within our installed base,” said Atlassian co-CEO Scott Farquhar.
For the third quarter, the management expects a net loss of $0.14 per share on a reported basis and a net income of $0.18 per share on an adjusted basis. Revenue is estimated to be in the range of $303 million to $305 million.

After descending from a record high, Atlassian shares are once again hovering near the peak. The stock, which surged about 76% in the past twelve months, gained 8% Thursday after the earnings report.
