Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, Transaction between Entities under Common Control, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract] |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations 2025 Business Combinations Moveworks, Inc. On December 15, 2025, we acquired all outstanding shares of Moveworks, Inc. (“Moveworks”), a privately held company that provides enterprise search and front-end virtual agent technology. The acquisition is intended to drive use of our Platform to accelerate enterprise adoption and innovation across key growth areas, including CRM. The preliminary aggregate purchase price consideration for Moveworks was $2.4 billion, which was comprised of the following (in millions):
| Fair Value
Fair value of common stock issued(1) |  | $ | 1,467 |
Cash |  | 905 |
Settlement of pre-existing loan |  | 31 |
Stock-based compensation awards attributable to pre-combination services |  | 4 |
Total purchase consideration |  | $ | 2,407 |
(1)The fair value of the stock consideration is based on the December 15, 2025 closing price of ServiceNow common stock at $153.04 and approximately 9.6 million shares of ServiceNow common stock. The allocation of the total purchase price is summarized below (in millions):
| Purchase Price Allocation | Asset Life
Current assets |  | $ | 48 |  |
Intangible assets |  | 770 |  | 2 - 5 years
Goodwill |  | 1,748 |  | Indefinite
Other assets |  | 124 |  |
Assets acquired |  | $ | 2,690 |  |
Current liabilities assumed |  | 83 |  |
Long-term liabilities assumed |  | 13 |  |
Deferred tax liabilities, non-current |  | 187 |  |
Net assets acquired |  | $ | 2,407 |  |
Identifiable intangible assets acquired in connection with the Moveworks acquisition (in millions) and the weighted-average lives are as follows:
| Intangible Assets | Asset Life (years)
Developed technology |  | $ | 505 |  | 5
Customer relationships |  | 220 |  | 5
Order backlog |  | 25 |  | 2
Brand assets |  | 20 |  | 4
Total |  | $ | 770 |  |
Goodwill, which is not deductible for income tax purposes, is primarily attributed to the value expected from synergies resulting from the business combination. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and income taxes payable and deferred taxes are based on management’s estimates and assumptions. The provisional measurements of fair value for certain assets and liabilities may be subject to change as additional information is received. The Company expects to finalize the valuation as soon as practicable, but not later than one year from the acquisition date. As contemplated by the terms of the merger agreement, in August 2025, the Company and Moveworks entered into a term loan credit agreement pursuant to which Moveworks drew $25 million. In December 2025, Moveworks drew an additional $5 million on the term loan credit agreement. The loan was settled on the closing date of the Moveworks acquisition. Logik.io Inc. On May 30, 2025, we acquired all outstanding shares of Logik.io Inc., a provider of an AI-powered, composable Configure, Price, Quote (“CPQ”) solution for total purchase consideration of $506 million, which consists primarily of approximately 2.1 million shares of ServiceNow common stock with a value of approximately $434 million and $62 million in cash. The fair value of the stock consideration is based on the May 30, 2025 closing price of ServiceNow common stock at $202.22. The acquisition is intended to expand our growing CRM footprint and accelerate our sales and order management capabilities with the acquired CPQ solutions technology. The purchase price was allocated based on the estimated fair value of the developed technology intangible asset of $85 million (five-year estimated useful life), customer-related and backlog assets of $14 million (three-year estimated useful life), net tangible assets of $25 million, deferred tax liabilities of $22 million and goodwill of $404 million, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. Goodwill is primarily attributed to the value expected from synergies resulting from the business combination. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and income taxes payable and deferred taxes are based on management’s estimates and assumptions. Other Acquisitions In July 2025, we completed the acquisition of data.world, Inc., a leader in enterprise data cataloging and governance. The acquisition is intended to strengthen the Company’s AI platform by allowing customers to enrich data with meaning, context and relationships while enabling AI agents and workflows to operate. The acquisition is not material to our consolidated financial statements. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we also completed other acquisitions that were not material to our consolidated financial statements, either individually or in the aggregate. Pending Business Combinations In December 2025, we signed a definitive agreement to acquire Veza Technologies, Inc., a privately held company that provides a unified access platform, with native products offering access search, access intelligence, access monitoring and access workflows, for approximately $1.25 billion cash consideration, subject to customary adjustments. The acquisition is expected to close during the first half of 2026, subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions. In December 2025, we signed a definitive agreement to acquire Armis Security Ltd. a cyber-exposure management and cyber-physical security solutions provider, for approximately $7.75 billion cash consideration, subject to customary adjustments. The acquisition is expected to close during the second half of 2026, subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions. 2024 Business Combinations During the year ended December 31, 2024, we completed certain acquisitions for total purchase consideration of $112 million, primarily to enhance our products with the acquired technology and engineering workforce. The acquisitions were not material to our consolidated financial statements, either individually or in the aggregate. 2023 Business Combinations On July 17, 2023, we acquired all outstanding shares of G2K Group GmbH, an artificial intelligence powered platform, for $465 million in a cash transaction. The consideration was paid in two installments, with the first payment made in July 2023 and the second payment made in February 2024. The acquisition is intended to enhance our Platform with the acquired smart Internet of Things technology, enabling businesses to intelligently action digital and in-store data with enterprise-grade workflows. The purchase price was allocated based on the fair value of the developed technology intangible asset of $75 million (six-year estimated useful life), net tangible liabilities of $1 million, deferred tax liabilities of $23 million and goodwill of $414 million, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. Goodwill is primarily attributed to the value expected from synergies resulting from the business combination. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and income taxes payable and deferred taxes are based on management’s estimates and assumptions. We have included the financial results of business combinations in the consolidated financial statements from the respective dates of acquisition, which were not material. Aggregate acquisition-related costs associated with business combinations were $96 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and immaterial for each of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and were included in general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income as incurred.
