ITEM 1. Business
Overview
Nutanix, Inc. ("we," "us," "our," or "Nutanix") is a global leader in cloud software, offering organizations a single platform for running applications and managing data, anywhere. Our vision is to make hybrid multicloud deployments simple and free customers to focus on achieving their business outcomes. Our mission is to delight customers with an open hybrid multicloud platform with rich data services to run and manage any application, anywhere.
Our Nutanix Cloud Platform is designed to enable organizations to build a 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, all while supporting a variety of hypervisors and container platforms. Nutanix Cloud Platform supports a wide variety of workloads with varied compute, storage, and network requirements, including business-critical applications, data platforms (including SQL and NoSQL databases and business intelligence applications), general-purpose workloads (including system infrastructure, networking, and security), end-user computing and virtual desktop infrastructure services, enterprise artificial intelligence ("AI") workloads (including machine learning ("ML") and generative AI workloads), 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, easy-to-use, 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, decoupling our software from Nutanix-branded hardware appliances and powering a variety of on-premises private cloud deployments, as part of our previously-completed transition from a hardware company to a software company. 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 making hybrid multicloud deployments simple, 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.

Our End Customers
We have end customers across a broad range of industries, such as automotive and other transportation, consumer goods, education, energy, financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, media, public sector, retail, technology, and telecommunications. We also sell to service providers, which use Nutanix Cloud Platform to provide a variety of cloud-based services to their customers. We had a broad and diverse base of over 26,000 end customers as of July 31, 2024, including approximately 1,060 Global 2000 enterprises. 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. We believe that our evolving platform and product portfolio will help 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 project or application. Our sales teams and channel partners then target follow-on sales opportunities to drive additional purchases through new applications and products. We believe this land-and-expand strategy will help enable us to expand our footprint within our existing customer base.
• 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, and our renewals are associated with lower sales costs, as compared to landing new end customers or expanding sales to existing end customers.
• Building on our hybrid multicloud vision. We intend to continue investing in our vision to make Nutanix Cloud Platform the platform of choice to run applications and data anywhere. We believe our platform can enable customers to accelerate their strategic initiatives to modernize legacy lT infrastructure, modernize applications, and accelerate the deployment of enterprise AI.

Sales and Marketing
Sales . We primarily engage with our end customers through our global sales force who directly interact with key IT decision makers while also providing sales development, opportunity qualification and support to our channel partners. We have established relationships with our channel partners, who represent many of the key resellers and distributors of data center infrastructure software and systems in each of the geographic regions where we operate. We also engage our end customers through our OEM partners, which license our software and package it with their hardware and sell through their direct sales forces and channel partners. We expect to continue leveraging our relationships with our channel and OEM partners, and deepening relationships with our cloud and ecosystem partners, to reach our end customers.
Marketing . Our marketing team enables our global sales force and sales via our partner ecosystem. Our marketing focuses on educating our customers, prospects, partners, media and analysts, and influencers about the benefits and business outcomes our cloud software platform and solutions can deliver. The breadth of our product portfolio allows us to engage multiple buyer and user personas across the organization, including senior executives, IT professionals, and developers. Over the past year, we have focused on raising awareness for our newly updated brand identity and new strategic narrative that highlights our evolution in corporate positioning from being the pioneer and a leader in HCI to now bringing one platform to solve the market’s toughest challenges in operating hybrid multicloud environments. We enhanced this narrative to include the value of the platform for enterprise AI and cloud native workloads throughout the year as well. We engage buyers through a variety of outbound and inbound marketing programs that include email, digital marketing, corporate and third-party events that generate customer and prospect awareness - including our annual user event, .NEXT, in-person and virtual demand generation activities, social media outreach, media and analyst relations activities, learning certifications, community programs, platform test drives, thought leadership, and our website. Our robust community empowers customers and partners to share and discuss best practices for leveraging our solutions as well as network with peers. We foster strategic marketing partnerships with our ecosystem of technology, channel, OEM, system integrator, and service provider partners to expand market reach, increase brand awareness, and drive business growth. Through our unified Elevate Partner Program, we offer qualified partners access to market development funds, co-branded marketing campaigns, joint demand programs, and comprehensive learning paths.
Research and Development
Our research and development efforts are focused primarily on improving current technology, developing new technologies in current and adjacent markets, and supporting existing end customer deployments.

Competition
We operate in the intensely competitive IT infrastructure market and compete primarily with companies that sell software and hardware to build and operate private clouds, integrated systems and standalone storage and servers, as well as providers of public cloud infrastructure solutions. These markets are characterized by constant change and rapid innovation. We face competition from, among others:
• software providers that offer a broad range of virtualization, infrastructure and management products to build and operate enterprise and hybrid clouds, such as VMware by Broadcom;
• 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, HPE, Hitachi Data Systems ("Hitachi"), International Business Machines ("IBM"), Lenovo, Pure Storage, Inc. ("Pure Storage"), NetApp, Inc. ("NetApp"), and Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. ("Huawei"), that offer integrated systems that include bundles of servers, storage and networking solutions, as well as a broad range of standalone server and storage products.
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 offerings, acquire competing businesses, sell at lower prices, bundle with other products and capabilities (including artificial intelligence, machine learning, and generative AI capabilities), provide closed technology platforms, partner with other companies to develop joint solutions, or otherwise attempt 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.
We believe the principal competitive factors in our market include:
• platform features and capabilities;
• system scalability, performance and resiliency;
• 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;
• 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 are also venturing 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, cloud disaster recovery, data 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.

Table of Contents
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, 2024, we had 513 U.S. patents that have been issued and 168 non-provisional patent applications pending in the United States. Our issued U.S. patents expire between 2033 and 2044. 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 lease suitable additional space to accommodate our operations.
Government Regulation
Our business activities are subject to various federal, state, local, and foreign laws, rules and regulations. Compliance with these laws, rules and regulations has not had, and is not expected to have, a material effect on our capital expenditures, results of operations or competitive position as compared to prior periods. Nevertheless, compliance with existing or future governmental regulations, including, but not limited to, those pertaining to global trade, acquisitions, data protection and data privacy, employment and labor, and taxes could have a material impact on our business in subsequent periods. See Item 1A, "Risk Factors," for further discussion of risks related to the potential impact of government regulation on our business.
Employees and Human Capital
We had approximately 7,150 employees worldwide as of July 31, 2024. None of our employees in the United States are represented by a labor organization or are a party to any collective bargaining arrangement. In certain European countries in which we operate, we are subject to, and comply with, local labor law requirements in relation to the establishment of works councils and/or industry-wide collective bargaining agreements. We are often required to consult and seek the consent or advice of these works councils. We have never had a work stoppage and we consider our relationship with our employees to be good.
We understand the importance of human capital and prioritize building our culture, talent development, compensation and benefits, and diversity and inclusion. Our human capital resources objectives include identifying, recruiting, retaining, and incentivizing talent, as well as promoting the development and integration of our existing and new employees, advisors and consultants. The principal purposes of our equity and cash incentive plans are to attract, retain and reward personnel through stock-based and cash-based compensation awards to drive stockholder value and the success of our company by motivating such individuals to perform to the best of their abilities and achieve our objectives.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging
At Nutanix, we believe that our differences make us stronger: our diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives when shared, make us a more innovative and resilient team, and we can better delight and serve our customers when our teams reflect the diversity of the businesses and communities we serve.
We believe that fostering diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging ("DEIB") will help us create and maintain a dynamic culture that achieves business results. DEIB efforts at Nutanix have been aimed at attracting, developing, and retaining the best diverse talent by facilitating an irresistible employee experience. To further support this objective, we have implemented a number of initiatives, including expanding our employee resource groups, continuing our company-wide diversity training and overall education efforts, as well as developing and implementing allyship, advocacy, and mentorship programs.
Total Rewards
We believe a robust, equitable, and competitive Total Rewards portfolio is essential to attracting and retaining diverse talent that moves Nutanix forward. We design reward and recognition programs that resonate wherever our talent sits in the world. Our reward programs are carefully crafted to offer physical, mental/emotional, and financial support to our employees and their families. We regularly review our programs and encourage employee feedback about the rewards they value most. We tailor rewards programs specifically based on local market practice and the competitive landscape and we provide a range of globally available support programs such as an Employee Assistance Program, online health engagement, and child development support.
Health, Wellness, and Safety
The health and safety of employees and others on our property are a top priority. We also focus on compliance with all health and safety laws applicable to our business. To that end, appropriate requirements are implemented, as needed, in order to comply with public health or safety obligations. In addition, we work with our employees and facilities management at our office locations to ensure that work areas are kept safe and free of hazardous conditions. Employees are required to be conscientious about workplace safety. In compliance with applicable laws, and to promote the concept of a safe workplace, we maintain an Injury and Illness Prevention Program. We also continue to support the well-being and continued development of our employees by offering well-being days, during which all employees may enjoy private time away from work requirements.
Growth and Development
We challenge our employees to constantly learn, continuously improve, and eternally evolve -- and to that end we invest resources to foster a learning culture throughout our company and to empower our employees to drive their own personal and professional growth by equipping them with onboarding and learning programs. Our learning programs include digital learning, speed coaching, customized learning workshops, management enablement and skills training for current, new and future managers, training on diversity, inclusion, and belonging, language learning programs, and employee wellness programs. We believe that by empowering our employees as they strive to grow personally and professionally, we will be able to build a flexible and resilient workforce and maintain and nurture a robust pipeline of talent to fuel our future growth and strategy.
We recognize and value the continuous evolution and refinement of our company culture, while staying true to our Core Values – which ask each employee to operate with a mindset of remaining Hungry, Humble, Honest, and always acting with Heart. For fiscal 2024, we introduced a rebranding of our Culture Principles, developed with input from employees in every function, region, and level of Nutanix. These Culture Principles are encapsulated as follows:
• We obsess about our customers’ success
9
Table of Contents
• We work as one team
• We own it
• We think long-term
Each of these Culture Principles aligns with our Core Values and represents the beliefs that help inform all kinds of decisions at our company – from how we hire, to how we develop our products and services, to how we work with our customers.
