Nutanix, Inc. (NTNX) Business

ITEM 1. Business

Overview

Nutanix, Inc. ("we," "us," "our," or "Nutanix") is a hybrid multicloud computing leader, offering organizations a unified software platform for running applications and AI and managing data anywhere. Our vision is to simplify the deployment and operation of the increasingly distributed landscape of apps and data while freeing organizations to focus on business goals. Our mission is to delight customers with an open, secure platform with rich data services that increases their ability to take advantage of new technologies such as cloud native and AI, optimizes how they run their organizations today, and accelerates innovation, efficiency, and growth.

The Nutanix Cloud Platform is designed to enable organizations to build hybrid multicloud infrastructure, providing a consistent cloud operating model with a single platform for running applications and managing data in core data centers, at the edge, and in public clouds, while supporting customer choice across server platforms, storage options, public and managed clouds, and container and virtualization platforms. The Nutanix Cloud Platform supports a wide variety of workloads with varied compute, storage, and network requirements, including business-critical applications, data platforms (including SQL, NoSQL, and vector databases and business intelligence applications), enterprise AI workloads (including machine learning, generative AI, and agentic AI), general-purpose workloads (including system infrastructure, networking, and security), end-user computing and virtual desktop infrastructure services, and cloud native applications (including modern, containerized applications).

We originally pioneered hyperconverged infrastructure ("HCI") to break down legacy silos by merging compute, storage and networking into a single software-defined data center platform. We continued to innovate and developed Nutanix AHV, our native hypervisor that offers enterprise-grade virtualization and built-in Kubernetes support. To provide our customers with more choice, we further engineered our software solutions to run on a variety of server platforms and with a variety of external storage providers. Most recently, we have extended our software platform support to include external storage from qualified partners. To provide our customers with the flexibility to choose their preferred license levels and durations based on their specific business needs, we reshaped our licensing by completing a transition to a subscription-based business model. In addition to enabling enterprise AI and simplifying hybrid multicloud deployments, we have a further long-term vision to enable developers to build modern container-based applications once and run them anywhere through Project Beacon, our multi-year effort to provide consistent Kubernetes platform management and data-centric platform services across clouds.

Our business is organized into a single operating and reportable segment. We operate a subscription-based business model, meaning one in which our products, including associated support and entitlement arrangements, are sold with a defined duration. For more information, see the section titled "Components of Our Results of Operations" included in Part II, Item 7, as well as Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We define the number of end customers as the number of end customers for which we have received an order by the last day of the period, excluding partners to which we have sold products for their own demonstration purposes. A single organization or customer may represent multiple end customers for separate divisions, segments, or subsidiaries, and the total number of end customers may contract due to mergers, acquisitions, or other consolidation among existing end customers.

Growth Strategy

Key elements of our current growth strategy include:

•
Landing new end customers. We intend to continue to grow our customer footprint through targeted investments in sales and marketing, our network of channel partners, and strengthening our OEM partnerships. In addition, we believe that the recent expansion of our platform to support external storage and the strengthening of our Kubernetes capabilities help enable us to address a broader range of customer infrastructure needs and deployment preferences. We believe that our evolving platform and product portfolio will enable us to address a larger customer base.

•
Expanding sales to existing end customers. Our end customers typically deploy our technology initially for a specific workload. Our sales teams and channel partners then target follow-on opportunities to drive additional purchases by expanding capacity for the existing workload, targeting new workloads, upselling higher product tiers, and cross-selling new products. We believe this land-and-expand strategy enables us to expand our footprint within our existing customer base. We also believe that our platform's recent expansion to support external storage and strengthened Kubernetes capabilities drive opportunities to expand with existing end customers.

•
Driving renewals and retention in existing end customers. In addition to our land-and-expand strategy, as part of our subscription-based business model, we intend to continue to focus on adoption and renewals among our existing customer base. Our focus on adoption drives customer value and stickiness. Our renewals are associated with lower sales costs as compared to landing new customers or expanding into our existing customer base, and help us drive profitable growth.

We believe that these investments will support our long-term growth strategy, although they may result in increased expenses and adversely affect our profitability in the near term.

Manufacturing

We do not manufacture any hardware. The Nutanix-branded NX series hardware platforms are manufactured by Super Micro Computer, Inc. ("Supermicro"). Supermicro designs, assembles and tests the Nutanix-branded NX series hardware platforms and it procures the components used in the NX series hardware platforms directly from third-party suppliers. Our agreement with Supermicro automatically renews annually in May for successive one-year periods thereafter, with the option to terminate upon each annual renewal. Distributors handle fulfillment and shipment for certain end customers, but do not hold inventory.

Competition

We operate in the intensely competitive cloud infrastructure and platform services markets and compete with a broad range of companies that sell software and hardware to build and operate private clouds, integrated systems and standalone storage and servers, as well as cloud services providers and managed service providers. These markets are characterized by constant change, rapid innovation, and evolving licensing and consumption models. We face competition from a broad range of providers, including, among others:

•
software providers that offer virtualization, containerization, infrastructure and management products to build and operate enterprise and hybrid clouds, such as VMware by Broadcom, Microsoft, and Red Hat;

•
providers of public cloud infrastructure and SaaS-based offerings, such as AWS, Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud, and Azure; and

•
traditional IT systems vendors, such as Dell, Fujitsu, HPE, Hitachi Vantara, Lenovo, Pure Storage, Inc., NetApp, Inc., and Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., many of which offer integrated systems that bundle servers, storage and networking solutions, as well as standalone server and storage products.

Competition generally varies by workload and customer segment, and customers often evaluate multiple alternatives simultaneously. Several of our competitors are also our partners, resellers, or OEMs in certain offerings. As the market in which we compete continues to develop, we expect it will continue to attract new companies as well as existing larger vendors. Some of our competitors may also expand their product and service offerings, acquire or invest in competing businesses or emerging technologies, offer differentiated pricing terms, bundle their products with other products and capabilities (including AI, machine learning, generative AI, and emerging agentic AI capabilities), provide closed technology platforms, partner with other companies to develop joint solutions, or otherwise leverage their scale, brand recognition or ecosystem relationships to gain a competitive advantage. Furthermore, as we expand our product offerings, we may expand into new markets, and we may encounter additional competitors in such markets. Additionally, as companies increasingly offer competing solutions, they may be less willing to cooperate with us as an OEM or otherwise.

Table of Contents

We believe the principal competitive factors in our market include:

•
platform features and capabilities;

•
system scalability, performance and resiliency;

•
the ecosystem of certified applications, services, and solutions for our platform;

•
management and operations, including provisioning, troubleshooting, analytics, automation, and upgrades;

•
total cost of ownership over the lifetime of the technology;

•
customer freedom of choice over, and product interoperability with, third-party applications, infrastructure software, infrastructure systems, and platforms and public clouds;

•
the ability to compete with incumbent vendors whose deeply integrated solutions and long-term commercial arrangements may limit customer flexibility and increase switching costs;

•
application mobility across disparate silos of enterprise computing, including public and private cloud infrastructure; and

•
quality of customer experience, including ease-of-use, support and professional services.

We have also strategically expanded into a number of markets that are adjacent to our core HCI market, both through the expansion in hybrid multicloud environments as well as through our addition of new functionality and features in our platform and through portfolio products. These adjacent markets include areas such as Kubernetes management and data and platform services, AI platform services, cloud disaster recovery, data security, governance and compliance, cloud management, files and object storage, and database automation and database-as-a-service. Competitors in these markets include large, sophisticated companies that may have more experience or longer operating histories in these markets as well as new entrants.

We believe that we are positioned favorably against our competitors based on these factors. However, many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, technical and other resources, greater brand recognition, larger sales forces and marketing budgets, a larger existing customer base, broader distribution, and larger and more mature intellectual property portfolios.

Intellectual Property

Our success depends in part upon our ability to protect and use our core technology and intellectual property. We rely on patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures, and employee nondisclosure and invention assignment agreements to protect our intellectual property rights. As of July 31, 2025, we had 578 U.S. patents that have been issued and 159 non-provisional patent applications pending in the United States. Our issued U.S. patents expire between 2033 and 2045. We also leverage some open source software in most of our products. See Item 1A, "Risk Factors," for further discussion of risks related to protecting our intellectual property.

Facilities

Our corporate headquarters are located in San Jose, California where, under lease agreements that expire through May 2030, we currently lease approximately 215,000 square feet of space. We also maintain offices in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, Latin America, and Africa. We lease all of our facilities and do not own any real property. We believe that our facilities are adequate to meet our needs for the immediate future and that, should it be needed, we would be able to lease suitable additional space to accommodate our operations.
