The company's "robust" performance in the quarter further suggested there are no signs it is slowing its increasing product/service proliferation in the "fast-growing next-generation" cybersecurity space. "In a nutshell, Fortinet delivered another stellar quarter/outlook and remains well positioned for the next chapter of growth, with improved profitability on the horizon over the coming years, in our view, as management scales the business and looks to leverage investments (sales and marketing) as it continues to fire on all cylinders and take market share," Ives wrote. Fortinet also issued top-line and billings guidance for the September quarter and full fiscal year that were above expectations as the company's sales force ramp is resulting in further penetrating existing customers while also adding new ones. As a result, the analyst boosted his full year fiscal 2015 revenue estimate to $1.01 billion from a previous $938.9 million with an unchanged earnings per share estimate of $0.52. For fiscal 2016, the analyst is now projecting the company to earn $0.76 per share (versus a prior estimate of $0.70) on revenue of $1.19 billion (versus a prior estimate of $1.11 billion).
