Robotic process automation (RPA) — software robots automating repetitive tasks + AI agents
AI exposure 15% — derived from reported segment revenue, not asserted.
Software Stack → Enterprise & Business Software · figures rebased to Q2 FY2027, reported 2026-09-03
The UiPath automation platform — subscription services, licences and the implementation around them — is 3 businesses in this sub-tier that together are 100% of revenue after the Q2 FY2027 rebase, so Enterprise & Business Software is effectively the whole company rather than one leg of it.
UiPath ($410.3M Q2 FY2027, +13.4% YoY; ARR $1.938B, +12%). Rebuilt on the three revenue lines the filing actually reports, replacing a model that merged the first two: Subscription services 64.9% ($266.1M, +11.6%) = primary B5 Enterprise & Business Software; Licenses 30.2% ($123.8M, +10.4%); Professional services and other 5.0% ($20.3M, +81.6% — the fastest-growing line, at the lowest margin, with cost of revenue growing faster still). UiPath reports a single operating segment, so this disaggregation is the finest cut available. GAAP operating income $31.6M against a $20.2M loss, achieved…
Moat. A $1.938B ARR installed base of deployed automations carrying governance and audit trails enterprises are unwilling to re-certify, plus an agentic pivot in Maestro Case and Maestro Flow that puts orchestration around AI agents. The account-level switching costs are real; the category barrier is not, and Microsoft is attacking it from inside M365.
Bottleneck / pricing power. Pricing power is visibly narrow — dollar-based net retention is 109%, so expansion is close to flat and growth depends on new logos, and net new ARR was $37M in the quarter. Gross margin remains software-grade at 82% non-GAAP, but the fastest-growing revenue line is professional services at 5.0% of revenue growing 82%, whose cost of revenue grew faster than the revenue did.
Role in the AI stack. The RPA + agentic-automation layer — AI is threat + opportunity.
