When I come across particularly good or dominant products in everyday life, I immediately ask myself who owns this company and whether it is listed on the stock exchange. For example, some time ago I became a Cloudflare shareholder and also came across Atlassian.
Atlassian offers software that supports teams in collaboration, project management and software development. Jira can be used to manage tasks and projects, Confluence serves as a central platform for documentation and collaboration, Bitbucket enables the management of Git repositories, and Trello supports flexible project management through visual boards.
The next step
Most people who work in a digital environment will be familiar with Confluence & Co.
The next step is to take a look at the business figures. After all, you don't buy AktienAfter all, you don't buy blindly just because you know the name or use a company's product.
However, Atlassian's track record is clear. Over the past ten years, the company has massively increased its turnover from USD 320 million to USD 4.36 billion.
During this time, free cash flow improved from USD 0.31 to USD 5.46 per share.
Profitability has therefore increased. The dilution of the share base is limited and there is no net debt, which means that growth was not financed on credit.
I have therefore already commented on the share several times, most recently at USD 193 and before that at USD 126. The last analysis is still online:
Atlassian auf Tauchgang: Aussitzen, Reißleine ziehen oder jetzt zuschlagen?
The positive trend has continued in the current financial year. This should have been clear since the publication of the figures for the second quarter at the latest. Atlassian's financial year runs until the end of July.
Another very strong quarter
At USD 0.96 per share, Q2 earnings were well above expectations of USD 0.74. With sales of USD 1.29 billion, the company also exceeded analysts' estimates of USD 1.24 billion.
For the year as a whole, this corresponds to a 21% increase in sales and a 31% jump in profits.
Free cash flow amounted to USD 352 million and the FCF margin was 27%.
In addition, the forecast for sales growth was raised from 16.5 - 17.0 % to 18.5 - 19.0 %.
The gross margin is expected to rise to 84.0 - 84.5% instead of 83.5% and the operating margin from 24% to 26% for the year as a whole.
It is understandable that this news has led to a jump in the share price. From a fundamental point of view, however, the air is slowly getting thin.
With a P/FCF of over 50, the share is no longer the bargain it was at USD 126 or 195 at the time of the last analyses. Everything that is still coming to the upside is a "bonus" and is mainly due to traders who are now buying the stock en masse. Aktie kaufen, after the price has already tripled.

However, if the share price falls below USD 300, a correction must be expected. Possible starting points are USD 280 and USD 240 - 250.
Increased buying interest can be expected between USD 240 and USD 250.
