Analyst projections of the future price of Cognyte Software stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

In Q2, total software revenue rose 20.9% and recurring revenue grew 18.4%, both ahead of the 12% increase in total revenue. Recurring revenue already made up 51.4% of sales, supporting a more predictable revenue base. (Cognyte)
Profitability is growing faster than sales: Q2 adjusted EBITDA rose 35.7% and non-GAAP EPS nearly doubled. Cognyte kept its FY27 outlook for about 40% EBITDA growth, suggesting further operating leverage if it delivers. (Cognyte)
Recent customer activity supports the case that existing deployments can expand and new customers can be won: Cognyte announced a roughly $10 million APAC contract and a renewal worth more than $20 million a year with a long-standing security agency. (Cognyte, Cognyte)
Q2 billings fell to $76.3 million from $93.0 million a year earlier. Although billings can move with contract timing, the 18% decline raises a question about the pace of new business converting into future revenue. (Cognyte)
Operating cash flow was only $1.1 million in Q2, and management said targeted inventory investment would affect the timing and level of cash generation this year. That leaves cash conversion to prove itself even as reported earnings improve. (Cognyte, Cognyte)
The shift towards subscriptions can change when revenue is recognised, while customer and contract mix can make quarterly results uneven. Cognyte’s FY27 plan assumes Q3 revenue only slightly above Q2, followed by sequential growth in Q4, leaving the outlook reliant on a stronger finish to the year. (Cognyte)
