On Thursday, RBC Capital adjusted its outlook on Dynatrace Inc. (NYSE: NYSE:DT) shares, reducing the price target to $60 from $66. However, the firm maintained its Outperform rating on the stock.
The modification follows Dynatrace's announcement of a strong end to the year, with all metrics surpassing expectations, including a more than 20% constant currency Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) growth.
The company's guidance for FY/25 came in slightly below the consensus but was generally aligned with what the buy-side anticipated. RBC Capital noted that the guidance seems cautiously conservative, taking into account potential short-term disruptions from recent go-to-market (GTM) strategy changes, ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, and a longer and more variable process for closing larger consolidation deals.
Despite the lowered price target, RBC Capital expressed continued confidence in Dynatrace's potential for securing large-deal consolidations, which could be bolstered by the GTM strategy adjustments. The firm anticipates an acceleration of ARR over time for Dynatrace.
RBC Capital's stance remains optimistic about Dynatrace's future performance, citing the company's strong year-end results and its strategic positioning.
The reduced price target reflects the firm's adjusted estimates but does not alter the Outperform rating, indicating a belief that the stock will perform well relative to the market or its peers over the next 12 months. Dynatrace's stock performance will continue to be watched closely as it navigates the challenges and opportunities ahead.
