What happened
JFrog (FROG) stock jumped 22.5% to $91.49 in Thursday after-hours trading after third-quarter revenue rose 31% and the company raised its 2026 forecast, an earnings beat that surprised analysts. JFrog sells tools that companies use to store and secure their software. Its cloud business, where customers rent the tools online, grew 60% to $101.5 million. Adjusted profit was $0.32 a share versus the $0.23 analysts expected. JFrog now expects 2026 sales of $680 million to $682 million, a higher forecast than before.
Why it matters
JFrog is a small software company that shows how much businesses are spending to build and manage software, including code written by AI tools. Faster growth in its cloud business suggests customers are still paying more for these services, even though its shares fell sharply on Thursday before the report. A raised forecast also signals management expects the strength to continue through year-end.
