Splunk's Observability Platform Likely To Add Value, Analyst Says

  • Wells Fargo analyst Andrew Nowinski initiates coverage on Splunk Inc SPLK with an Overweight rating and a price target of $95.
  • He believes Splunk has the best overall observability platform in the market. He also observed it as deeply entrenched with many large enterprise customers, enabling long-term durable growth and profitability. 
  • Splunk’s revenue growth is also starting to normalize, which should positively impact the valuation. 
  • The operating margin is also set to expand as revenue growth normalizes. 
  • Finally, he believes Splunk’s pricing model is still a lingering pain point. Still, channel partners seem to have increasing confidence in CEO Gary Steele and the changes he is making, which should ultimately positively impact revenue growth. 
  • Price Action: SPLK shares traded lower by 0.68% at $71.63 on the last check Tuesday.
