Gold prices set for weekly drop as dollar surges; Trump tariff action in focus
On Thursday, Goldman Sachs analyst Kash Rangan revised the price target for MongoDB stock (NASDAQ:MDB) to $335 from the previous $390 while reaffirming a Buy rating on the shares. According to InvestingPro data, analyst targets for MongoDB range from $180 to $520, with the stock currently trading at $264.13. The company maintains a "FAIR" overall financial health score of 2.1 out of 5. The adjustment follows MongoDB’s fourth-quarter financial results, which showcased robust performance, particularly from its Atlas (NYSE:ATCO) revenue segment, exceeding expectations by 4%. Despite this, the stock experienced a 16% drop in after-hours trading as investors reacted to a reduction in the company’s revenue growth forecast for fiscal year 2026. The company has demonstrated strong historical growth, with a 5-year revenue CAGR of 45% and current revenue growth of 20.79% in the last twelve months.
MongoDB reported an outperformance in operating margin (OpM) and free cash flow (FCF) was 36% below the consensus. The company has reduced its FY26 revenue growth expectations by approximately 500 basis points, now guiding for a 12.6% increase compared to the Street’s anticipation of 17.5%. InvestingPro analysis reveals 8 additional key insights about MongoDB’s financial position, including its strong balance sheet with more cash than debt and healthy liquidity ratios. This was partially due to a high single-digit percentage decline in non-Atlas revenue, although Atlas consumption trends remained stable.
The initial operating margin guidance indicated a contraction of 500 basis points, which Rangan attributed to conservative estimates based on lower visibility of usage. However, the analyst believes that the steady Atlas consumption trends at the close of the fourth quarter suggest a more robust demand than what is reflected in the company’s guidance. Management’s projections imply an Atlas growth of around 23% for FY26, which is lower than the nearly 29% exit rate, excluding unused commitments.
Rangan posited that if Atlas were to grow at 27% and non-Atlas revenue were to decrease by only 3%, as opposed to the guided 8-9% drop, subscription revenue growth could stabilize at approximately 19%, which would significantly outperform the initial guidance by over 600 basis points. This scenario does not take into account the potential for Atlas growth acceleration in an improving macroeconomic environment.
