Workday: Results Of Operations And Financial Condition, Costs Associated With Exit Or Disposal Activities

Item 2.02 - Results of Operations and Financial ConditionWorkday, Inc. (“Workday”) is reiterating its fiscal 2027 third quarter and full-year financial guidance provided on its fiscal 2027 second quarter earnings call on August 27, 2026, with the exception of GAAP operating margin. Due to the activities discussed in Item 2.05 below, Workday now expects its fiscal 2027 third quarter GAAP operating margin to be approximately 20 to 21 percentage points lower than its third quarter non-GAAP operating margin and its fiscal 2027 full-year GAAP operating margin to be approximately 19 percentage points lower than its full-year non-GAAP operating margin. Workday intends to exclude the charges associated with the activities discussed in Item 2.05 below from its non-GAAP financial measures.Item 2.05 - Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal ActivitiesOn September 29, 2026, certain functions within Workday announced reorganizations designed to better align team structures with Workday’s strategic growth priorities. These actions include a reduction of approximately 2.5% of Workday’s current workforce, primarily within Workday’s Product and Technology team, and select leased office space reductions. Workday plans to continue to hire in key strategic areas and locations throughout its fiscal 2027.In connection with the above, Workday estimates that it will incur approximately $65 million to $80 million in charges, of which approximately $55 million to $70 million is expected to be recognized in the third quarter of fiscal 2027, and $10 million is expected to be recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2027. These charges consist of approximately $40 million to $55 million of future cash expenditures related to severance payments, employee benefits, and related costs and approximately $10 million in non-cash charges for stock-based compensation. The charges also consist of approximately $15 million in non-cash charges related to the impairment of certain leased office space.The employee-related actions described above are expected to be substantially completed by the first quarter of fiscal 2028, subject to local law and consultation requirements. The actions associated with the leased office space are expected to be substantially completed by the fourth quarter of fiscal 2027. The estimates of the charges and expenditures that Workday expects to incur in connection with the above, and the timing thereof, are subject to a number of assumptions, including local law requirements in various jurisdictions, and actual amounts may differ materially from estimates.Forward-Looking StatementsThis Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, statements related to the expected benefits and impact of the reorganizations, the expected hiring plans, the percentage of employees to be impacted, the estimate and timing of the charges that will be incurred, and Workday’s financial outlook for the third quarter and full year fiscal 2027. These forward-looking statements are based only on currently available information and Workday’s current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of Workday’s control. If the risks materialize, assumptions prove incorrect, or Workday experiences unexpected changes in circumstances, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements, and therefore you should not rely on any forward-looking statements. Risks include, but are not limited to, the risk that we may not realize the anticipated benefits of the reorganizations to the extent or as quickly as anticipated or at all, the risk that the reorganization costs and charges may be greater than anticipated, the risk that the reorganizations could negatively impact our business operations, as well as the risks described in Workday’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including Workday’s most recent report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K and other reports that Workday has filed and will file with the SEC from time to time, which could cause actual results to vary from expectations. Workday assumes no obligation to, and does not currently intend to, update any such forward-looking statements after the date of this report, except as required by law.SignaturePursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.Dated: September 29, 2026Workday, Inc./s/ Zane RoweZane RoweChief Financial Officer
