Analyst projections of the future price of Cognyte Software stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Cognyte’s second-quarter results show operating leverage: revenue rose 12%, software revenue 21%, recurring revenue 18% and adjusted EBITDA 35.7%. Management kept its fiscal 2027 revenue target of about $448 million and adjusted EBITDA target of about $68 million. (Cognyte)
The shift towards subscriptions is improving revenue visibility. Recurring revenue reached 51.4% of second-quarter sales, while management said expected renewals and recent commercial activity cover about 85% of the next 12 months’ revenue. (Cognyte)
The quality of growth still needs to show up in billings and cash. Second-quarter billings fell about 18% year on year to $76.3 million, while operating cash flow was only $1.1 million despite much stronger adjusted EBITDA. (Insider Monkey, Cognyte)
The subscription transition can create near-term volatility. Cognyte said subscription adoption, foreign-exchange movements and inventory investment contributed to negative first-quarter operating cash flow of $4.7 million, with cash generation expected to be weighted towards the second half. (Investing.com, TradingView)
Profit delivery has not been consistent enough to remove execution risk. First-quarter adjusted EPS was $0.03 against a $0.09 consensus estimate, so the full-year $0.47 target depends heavily on the expected improvement in the second half. (Investing.com, Simply Wall St)
