The Triple Play Report — 9/4/25

An earnings triple play is a stock that reports earnings and manages to 1) beat analyst EPS estimates, 2) beat analyst sales estimates, and 3) raise forward guidance.  You can read more about “triple plays” at Investopedia.com where they’ve given Bespoke credit for popularizing the term.  We like triple plays as an indication that a company’s business is firing on all cylinders, with better-than-expected results and an improving outlook.  A triple play is indicative of positive “fundamental momentum” instead of pure fundamentals, and there are always plenty of names with both high and low valuations on our quarterly list.

Bespoke’s Triple Play Report highlights companies that have recently reported earnings triple plays, and it features commentary from management on triple-play conference calls, company descriptions and analysis, and price charts.  Bespoke’s Triple Play Report is available at the Bespoke Institutional level only.  You can sign up for Bespoke Institutional now and receive a 14-day trial to read this week’s Triple Play Report, which features 20 new stocks.  To sign up, choose either the monthly or annual checkout link below:

Pure Storage (PSTG) is an example of a company that recently reported an earnings triple play after the close on 8/27. On a streak of ten EPS and revenue beats, the stock rallied 32% on 8/28 in reaction to this quarter’s triple play. That rally brought the stock to a new all-time high!

Here’s how AI describes the company: Pure Storage (PSTG) is a data storage company that develops all-flash hardware systems and cloud-based software to help enterprises manage rapidly growing volumes of data. Its core platform runs on the Purity operating system, which standardizes and simplifies storage across block, file, and object formats while enabling features like automated upgrades and data reduction. The company sells both physical arrays such as FlashArray for high-performance workloads and FlashBlade for analytics and AI, as well as subscription models like Evergreen//One, which delivers storage on demand with predictable costs and built-in refreshes. Pure has also expanded into cloud-native infrastructure through Cloud Block Store and Portworx, which allow customers to run applications seamlessly across public clouds and containerized environments like Kubernetes. More recently, the company introduced its Enterprise Data Cloud architecture, a framework designed to unify data management across global data estates, reduce IT complexity, and improve efficiency in areas such as power consumption and cooling. With customers spanning Fortune 500 firms, hyperscalers, and cloud-first enterprises, Pure Storage positions itself as a leader in modernizing data centers for AI, analytics, and next-generation application development.

Pure Storage posted strong Q2 FY26 results, with revenue up 13% to $861 million. Nearly half of sales now come from subscriptions, which grew 15% to $415 million, showing that customers are steadily moving away from one-time hardware purchases toward ongoing service contracts. Annual recurring revenue rose 18% to $1.8 billion, and the company’s backlog of contracted sales reached $2.8 billion, signaling confidence in long-term demand. Growth was broad, but international markets stood out with a 26% gain compared to 7% in the US. Customers continued to choose PSTG’s higher-end systems like FlashArray//XL, which lifted product gross margin to 68% and total gross margin to 72.1%. The company also recognized its first revenue from Meta’s deployment of DirectFlash technology, a high-margin deal expected to scale to multiple exabytes. Over 300 new customers were added, bringing Fortune 500 penetration to 62%. Management raised its full-year revenue outlook to 14% growth, citing a healthier pipeline of large deals, strong demand for FlashBlade in AI and analytics, and growing adoption of its storage-as-a-service offerings.

Looking at the snapshot below from our Earnings Explorer, Pure Storage (PSTG) has been a strong triple play name over the past several years. Since the beginning on 2021, the company has reported ten triple plays with just one revenue miss in 2023. This quarter’s positive stock reaction is also its best since its 2015 IPO.

Q2 2025 Earnings Conference Call Recaps: MongoDB (MDB)

Bespoke’s Conference Call Recaps use AI to summarize lengthy earnings calls. The commentary below is AI-generated and then edited by Bespoke for quality control. As always, none of these summaries should be construed as recommendations to buy or sell any securities, and investors should do their own research and/or consult with a financial professional before making any investment decisions.

Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers MongoDB’s (MDB) Q2 2026 earnings call.

MongoDB (MDB) is a modern database provider built around its flexible document model, allowing developers to manage structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data at scale. Its flagship product, MongoDB Atlas, is a fully managed cloud database that has become the backbone for applications in finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and technology. Over 70% of the Fortune 500 rely on MongoDB for mission-critical workloads, from billing systems at Deutsche Telekom to connected car platforms at major automakers. By integrating capabilities like search, vector search, and streaming directly into its database, MongoDB reduces the need for multiple disparate tools, positioning itself as a core part of the AI infrastructure stack. In Q2 of fiscal 2026, MongoDB posted revenue of $591M (+24% YoY), with Atlas growing 29% and now making up 74% of sales. Growth was fueled by larger enterprise workloads scaling faster and durable customer additions, with total customers nearing 60,000. AI was a recurring theme: startups and enterprises are increasingly turning to Atlas for vector search and agent-based applications, though management noted AI adoption remains early. Competitive positioning against Postgres (an open-source relational database system that’s widely used across industries) was discussed, with MongoDB’s JSON-first architecture and integrated search cited as advantages. Management also highlighted progress in legacy app modernization and a strong Q3 guide despite expected non-Atlas headwinds. Following the triple play, MDB shares rallied more than 30% on 8/27. That’s the company’s best post-earnings reaction since its 2017 IPO…
