Zscaler, Inc. (ZS) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

You're looking at the immediate runway for Zscaler, Inc. (ZS), which is all about deepening relationships with the customers you already have signed. This is the safest quadrant of the Ansoff Matrix, relying on the proven value of the Zero Trust Exchange platform.

Upselling the Existing Base

Your primary focus here is moving those current customers to the full Zero Trust Everywhere platform. As of the end of Q1 Fiscal Year 2026, you have 3,754 customers generating over $100,000 in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR), up from 3,494 at the end of Fiscal Year 2025. That's a base ready for expansion.

The mechanism driving this deep penetration is the Z Flex contract model. This model is clearly working to secure bigger, multi-year commitments upfront in exchange for flexibility. In Q1 FY26 alone, Z Flex generated over $175 million in Total Contract Value (TCV) bookings, which was an incredible jump of over 70% sequentially. This flexibility encourages customers to commit to more modules right away.

Here's a look at the scale of your platform adoption and the immediate cross-sell opportunities:

• Zero Trust Everywhere enterprises surpassed 450, hitting that goal three quarters ahead of the FY26 target of 390.
• AI Security ARR is expected to exceed $500 million by the end of FY26, having already surpassed the $400 million target early.
• Data Security Everywhere ARR accelerated to approximately $450 million.
• You are currently securing over 90 billion AI/ML transactions per month.

Platform Superiority and Competitive Targeting

When targeting customers at competitors, you point to the platform's proven success. For the full fiscal year 2025, Zscaler, Inc. achieved 23% revenue growth, reaching $2,673.1 million. This growth rate, sustained while expanding the platform, is your proof point.

Furthermore, you are already deeply embedded in the largest enterprises. As of the Q1 FY26 report, over 45% of Fortune 500 companies use your Zero Trust Exchange. This means for every Fortune 500 company you are not in, there is an open door, and for those you are in, there is significant room for module expansion.

The cross-sell potential is best illustrated by the module adoption within these expansion deals. For instance, one existing large aerospace customer increased its annual spend by over 40% under a Z Flex commitment, adding nine new modules including Asset Exposure Management and Identity Threat Detection.

Here's a snapshot of the key metrics supporting the market penetration strategy:

You've got the installed base, and the Z Flex mechanism is making it easier for them to buy more of what you already sell. Finance: draft the Q2 budget allocation for cross-sell enablement teams by Monday.

Zscaler, Inc. (ZS) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

You're looking at how Zscaler, Inc. pushes its existing Zero Trust Exchange platform into new customer sets or geographies. This is Market Development in action.

Aggressively target the mid-market segment with simplified, bundle-priced versions of the core platform.

Expand sales and marketing efforts in the Asia-Pacific and EMEA regions beyond the $1.35 billion US revenue base.

For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2025, the United States accounted for 54% of the total revenue, which was $1.35 billion out of total revenue of $2,673.1 million. To drive growth outside this base, the focus shifts to other regions where Zscaler, Inc. has already established a presence, but needs to accelerate penetration.

The EMEA region contributed $792.8 million in revenue for fiscal year 2025, representing 30% of the total. The Asia Pacific region generated $423.8 million, which was 16% of the total revenue for the same period. The goal here is to increase the percentage contribution of these regions relative to the Americas.

Leverage new FedRAMP Moderate authorized data centers in London and Paris to secure non-US government entities.

Zscaler, Inc. announced the launch of FedRAMP Moderate authorized data centers outside of the US, specifically located in London and Paris, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, which ended October 31, 2025. This move directly supports securing international government entities and partners needing data residency compliance.

Establish strategic partnerships with regional system integrators to reach smaller, local businesses.

Focus on securing new regulated industries like healthcare and financial services in new geographies.

Zscaler, Inc. is already serving the Federal sector, having achieved the U.S. Department of Defense's CMMC Level 2 certification and serving 14 cabinet-level agencies. The company also became the first Independent Software Vendor (ISV) to earn AWS Competencies in Healthcare, Education, and Government. As of July 31, 2025, Zscaler, Inc. served over 9,400 customers globally.

Here's a look at the geographic revenue distribution from the fiscal year 2025 results:

The total revenue for fiscal year 2025 was $2,673.1 million.

The growth of emerging products, which include ZDX, workload protection, and Zero Trust SD-WAN, represented a mid-20s percentage of new and upsell business in Q1 fiscal 2025, up from approximately 22% the prior year.

Zscaler, Inc. (ZS) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

You're looking at how Zscaler, Inc. (ZS) is pushing new products into its existing customer base-that's the Product Development quadrant of the Ansoff Matrix in action. The focus is clearly on expanding the platform through strategic acquisitions and deep AI integration, aiming for both market share gains in fiscal year 2025 and margin expansion thereafter.

Integrate the Red Canary acquisition to launch a new AI-powered Security Operations Center (SOC) module.

The integration of Red Canary, which closed on August 1, 2025, for approximately $675 million, is central to this strategy. Red Canary brings Managed Detection and Response (MDR) expertise, specifically noted for its AI-driven workflows achieving a 99.6% accuracy rate in threat detection. This is being combined with the Zero Trust Exchange™ platform to deliver a unified, AI-powered Security Operations Center (SOC) capability.

The financial expectation for this new capability is already baked into the guidance:

• FY2026 Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) guidance assumes a contribution of $95 million from Red Canary.
• The SecOps ARR segment itself grew 85% year-over-year in Q4 FY2025.

Introduce new AI-SPM (security posture management) solutions to existing customers for securing LLM usage.

Zscaler is aggressively targeting the security gaps created by enterprise AI adoption. The AI Security pillar, which includes AI-SPM (AI Security Posture Management), is a major growth driver. The urgency is clear, given that the average cost of an AI-related security incident in the past 12 months for enterprises was $4.8 million.

Adoption of these AI security solutions is accelerating:

• AI Security, alongside Zero Trust Everywhere and Data Security Everywhere, topped $1 billion in ARR by the end of Q4 FY2025.
• The company expects AI Security ARR to surpass $0.5 billion by the end of fiscal '26.
• In Q1 (presumably FY2026), customers included a G2K technology company and a Fortune 500 communications equipment company adopting the Gen AI solution.

Develop new Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX) innovations for end-to-end visibility and device scoring.

The Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX) platform is seeing significant traction with AI-powered enhancements. The focus is on reducing downtime, which industry experts estimate costs businesses $400 billion annually.

The performance metrics for these new ZDX innovations are strong:

• Bookings for the ZDX Advanced Plus package grew 58% year-over-year in Q4 FY2025.
• Following the launch of ZDX Copilot (less than a year prior to March 2025), bookings for the associated package grew over 45% to nearly $50 million.
• New ZDX innovations cut issue detection time by 98%, enabling resolution in minutes.

Launch new modules for securing the entire enterprise AI lifecycle, integrating the acquired SPLX technology.

While specific financial data on the integration of SPLX technology is not available, the broader AI lifecycle security push is evident in the platform expansion. The strategy is to secure AI from data ingestion through model training and usage, which is critical as 83% of companies claim AI is a top priority.

The platform is being expanded to cover the entire AI security spectrum:

Optimize new product offerings for margin expansion, following the initial focus on market share gains in FY25.

Zscaler, Inc. (ZS) achieved significant operational leverage in fiscal year 2025 while prioritizing market penetration with new offerings. The company delivered its highest-ever operating margin for both Q4 and the full fiscal year 2025.

Key financial results demonstrating this balance:

• Full Fiscal Year 2025 Revenue grew 23% year-over-year to $2.673 billion.
• Full Fiscal Year 2025 Non-GAAP operating margin reached 22% of revenue, up from 20% in fiscal 2024.
• Free cash flow for FY2025 was $726.7 million, representing a 27% margin of revenue.
• Management stated they are introducing new products optimized for faster go-to-market rather than margins, with a plan to optimize new products for margins over time as they scale.

Zscaler, Inc. (ZS) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

You're looking at how Zscaler, Inc. is moving beyond its core market penetration, which saw them achieve $2.6731 billion in revenue for fiscal year 2025, a 23% increase year-over-year. That growth is solid, but diversification is about planting seeds in new fields. For context, the company ended fiscal year 2025 with over 9,400 customers, serving 40% of the Forbes Global 2000.

Here's a snapshot of the financial scale as of the end of fiscal year 2025 (ended July 31, 2025), which helps frame the investment required for these new ventures:

The strategic moves for diversification are focused on adjacent security markets and new customer segments. Zscaler, Inc. is using acquisitions and new product development to enter these areas. For instance, the AI security market is seeing massive investment, projected to exceed $250 billion by the end of 2025.

The specific diversification thrusts look like this:

• Acquired Red Canary in May 2025 for $675M to bolster AI-driven threat intelligence and automation capabilities.
• Acquired SPLX in November 2025, an AI security pioneer, to embed AI asset discovery, automated red teaming, and governance directly into the platform.
• Introduced Zscaler Cellular, a Zero Trust solution specifically targeting IoT/OT connectivity.
• Posture Control already incorporates Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM) capabilities, which addresses a critical area; Gartner previously projected that by 2023, 75% of cloud security failures would stem from poor identity and privilege management.
• The company is expanding its AI security pillar, which grew over 80% year-over-year in Q3 CY2025, and launched AI Guardrails for Public and Private apps.

While the core business still shows strong momentum, with Q1 fiscal year 2026 revenue guidance set between $772 million and $774 million, these diversification efforts represent new revenue streams outside the traditional Secure Web Gateway/Zscaler Private Access base. The investment in sales and marketing, which contributed to a wider net loss of $48 million in a recent quarter (Q1 FY2025), is partly aimed at expanding market presence, which would include targeting smaller enterprises or new verticals.
