Description: PSTG Pure Storage December 17, 2025

Pure Storage, Inc. (NYSE:PSTG) delivers enterprise-class data storage and management solutions through a software-defined architecture called Purity, which underpins both its on-premise FlashArray and FlashBlade hardware families and its cloud-native offerings.

The product suite spans block-oriented FlashArray systems (X, C, XL, E, and File Services) for databases, VMs, and traditional workloads, as well as FlashBlade appliances (S, E, EXA) optimized for unstructured data, real-time analytics, and high-performance computing. Cloud-centric capabilities include Portworx for Kubernetes data services, Pure Fusion’s SaaS management plane, and Cloud Block Store for hybrid-cloud block storage, all sold via a direct sales force and channel partners.

Key recent metrics suggest the company is gaining traction in the subscription-based model: FY 2024 total revenue reached **$3.6 billion**, with **ARR (annual recurring revenue) growing ~28 % YoY** and subscription revenue now representing roughly **45 % of total revenue**. Gross margins have improved to **≈ 71 %**, reflecting the higher-margin SaaS mix, while cash flow from operations remains positive, supporting continued R&D and go-to-market investment. Macro-level drivers include the broader shift to hybrid-cloud architectures, rising demand for data-intensive AI/ML workloads, and the industry-wide move toward subscription pricing to smooth spend for enterprise IT budgets.
