salesforce.com, inc. (NYSE:CRM) Files An 8-K Regulation FD Disclosure
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On March20, 2018, salesforce.com, inc. (the “Company”) and MuleSoft, Inc. (“MuleSoft”) issued a joint press release announcing the entry into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Malbec Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and MuleSoft. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

On March20, 2018, in connection with announcement of the Merger Agreement, the Company intends to hold a conference call available to investors and the public. Details for accessing the conference call can be found in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto. A presentation (the “Investor Presentation”) for reference during such call is furnished as Exhibit99.2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

As a result of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company has raised its long-term revenue target range for the fiscal year ended January31, 2022 by $1 billion, from $20 billion to $22 billion to $21billion to $23billion. The Company expects the acquisition of MuleSoft to reduce the Company’s non-GAAP operating margin improvement target for the fiscal year ended January31, 2019, which the Company previously guided under ASC 605 and pre revision ASC 340-40 as a 125-150 basis-point improvement over the fiscal year ended January31, 2018, after the acquisition of MuleSoft. The Company’s goal is to maintain or modestly improve its non-GAAP operating margin for the fiscal year ended January31, 2019 compared with its non-GAAP operating margin for the fiscal year ended January31, 2018. The Company expects to update its guidance for the first quarter and full year for the fiscal year ended January31, 2019, excluding the acquisition of MuleSoft, to reflect the adoption of new accounting standards ASC 606 and ASC 340-40 on or before April3, 2018. The Company expects to update its non-GAAP guidance for the second quarter and full year for the fiscal year ended January31, 2019, including the acquisition of MuleSoft, to reflect new accounting standards ASC 606 and ASC 340-40 during the Company’s earnings call for the fiscal first quarter ended April30, 2018. The Company expects to update its GAAP guidance for the second quarter and full year for the fiscal year ended January31, 2019, including the acquisition of MuleSoft, to reflect new accounting standards ASC 606 and ASC 340-40 after the Company completes the purchase accounting process for the acquisition of MuleSoft, which will occur following the closing of the acquisition.
