  • Fundamentals vs. stock price: Kinaxis (KXS.TO) fell ~30% in the 2025 "SaaSpocalypse" sell-off even as CEO Razat Gaurav says pipeline, bookings and win rates were improving and Q1/Q2 beat consensus guidance.
  • Revenue doubling, margins intact: Revenue has doubled since 2023 toward ~$500M ARR across 450 customers; EBITDA margins remain 25-27% despite shifting to usage-based "Maestro Activity Unit" pricing.
