Valuation

Valuation signal

Possible value trap
Price
$43.44
Fair value
$75.36
Gap to fair value
−42%

In our model the price counts as cheap below $53.83 and expensive above $125.60 (uncertainty high, based on the price swings of the past year).

The two parts of the fair value come to $93.80 (cash-flow model) and $56.92 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is below both.

Calculated with a cost of equity of 12%. At 13% the fair value would be $70.07, at 11% it would be $82.13.

Possible value trap: looks cheap, but high risk.

Company outlook raised

Share price after the results: −7.3%

2026 outlook raised: revenue of $1.044 billion to $1.052 billion (more than $50 million higher), EPS of $6.15 to $6.23, and free cash flow slightly higher.

Supporting passage from the call, verbatim
“For the full year 2026, we're raising our outlook and now expect revenue of between $1.044 billion and $1.052 billion, an increase of more than $50 million from our prior guidance, driven by the addition of Domo for a partial quarter, together with solid underlying performance in our base business.”

The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
