Why two dates?

"Valued as of" is the effective date of the market closes, exchange rates, and filings inside the estimate. "Sources checked" is when the pipeline last verified those sources successfully. A weekend check can confirm a Friday valuation without inventing weekend movement.

As of September 4, 2026, Scott Farquhar's estimated net worth is about $9.0B(9.0 billion US dollars). That places Scott Farquhar at #22 among the people Net Worth Leader currently tracks.

This is an estimate of assets minus documented liabilities. It is not a cash balance, and many holdings may be restricted, pledged, illiquid, or difficult to value.

Summary

Scott Farquhar co-founded Atlassian in 2002 and served as co-chief executive until 2024, remaining a director and special adviser. His estimate mirrors his co-founder's because the two have kept equal founder stakes, valued here from his May 2026 Schedule 13G/A.

How the fortune was built

Farquhar met Cannon-Brookes at university, co-wrote Atlassian's first products, and shared the chief executive role for more than two decades. Since stepping back he has focused on investing and philanthropy while holding his Class B shares.

What drives the estimate

The estimate tracks Atlassian's share price. Small scheduled sales appear in his filings as a director.

Why the estimate changed

Scott Farquhar's estimate declined mainly because Atlassian Corporation shares decreased from the prior comparable close.

  • Atlassian Class B common stock held by Farquhar Investment Partnership No. 2 (converts one-for-one into Class A): estimated decrease of 240.0 million US dollars (market price)
  • Atlassian Class A common stock held by Farquhar Investment Partnership No. 2: estimated decrease of 1.4 million US dollars (market price)

A one-day estimate change is not the same as income, profit, or a realized gain or loss.

Liabilities without a documented value are never shown as zero; they are simply not included, and that limitation is part of source coverage below.

Source coverage and uncertainty

100.0% of this profile's modeled gross value is supported by Tier 1 or Tier 2 evidence (primary filings, official documents, licensed market data, or audited accounts). The profile carries a strong coverage label.

No meaningful range beyond the central estimate is supported for this profile, so only the central value is published. Unknown liabilities are not evidence that no liabilities exist. No personal liability is documented for this profile, so none is deducted.

Documented assumptions applied to this profile

  • Trust and holding-company shares reported as beneficially owned are counted. Shares held through revocable trusts, grantor retained annuity trusts, family partnerships, and holding companies are counted when the person reports them as beneficially owned with sole voting and dispositive power. Shares held by independent charitable foundations or explicitly disclaimed by the person are excluded.
