Snowflake recorded a wider loss but said its top line soared in the fiscal first quarter as its big-spending customer count grew and product revenue jumped by more than a third.

The cloud-data-warehousing-software provider posted a loss of $317 million, or 95 cents a share, compared with a loss of $225.6 million, or 70 cents a share, in the same quarter a year ago.

Stripping out one-time items, adjusted earnings were 14 cents a share. Analysts polled by FactSet had been expecting 18 cents a share.

Quarterly revenue climbed to $828.7 million from $623.6 million, topping analyst projections for $788.1 million, according to FactSet.

Product revenue was up 34% while revenue retention more than doubled.

Snowflake said it now has 485 customers generating more than $1 million in product revenue per year, up 30% from a year ago.
