The company also raised full-year revenue guidance to as much as $1.522 billion and expanded its share repurchase program with a $500 million authorization. Customer growth remained healthy too, with total customers surpassing 196,000 and larger accounts generating more than $50,000 in ARR climbing 38%.<br/><br/>The problem appears less about execution and more about valuation pressure and slowing expectations across software. Investors were likely hoping for even faster AI monetization, especially after management heavily emphasized its “autonomous” platform strategy, and it seems same-quarter revenue projections failed to impress investors. Plus, the CFO’s decision to step down only adds to uncertainty.<br/><br/>For long-term investors, the selloff may create a more interesting setup than existed a few months ago. Klaviyo still has nearly $985 million in cash, improving margins, and strong retention metrics. But the stock’s reaction is also a reminder that in software, good results are not always enough when expectations get too far ahead of fundamentals.</p><h2>Should you buy stock in Klaviyo right now?</h2>
