Goldman Sachs holds neutral on ServiceTitan stock, lifts target on Q3 results

On Tuesday, Goldman Sachs reaffirmed a Neutral rating on ServiceTitan stock (NASDAQ:TTAN), adjusting the price target upwards to $108 from the previous $100. The reassessment came after ServiceTitan's third fiscal quarter of 2025 results, which matched the preliminary figures disclosed before the company went public.

Currently trading at $100.13, InvestingPro data indicates the stock's RSI suggests overbought territory, with the price hovering between its 52-week range of $94.02 to $112. Despite a post-earnings after-hours dip of 3%, Goldman Sachs sees the quarter as not fully reflective of ServiceTitan's guidance strategy, suggesting the fourth fiscal quarter may offer a clearer picture.

ServiceTitan reported strong financials for the third quarter, with Subscription revenue growing 27% year-over-year to a run-rate of $581 million. With a market capitalization of $9 billion and a "Fair" financial health score according to InvestingPro analysis, the company processed $17.8 billion in Gross Transaction (JO:TCPJ) Volume (GTV), marking a 20% increase from the previous year. The company maintains a healthy current ratio of 1.91, indicating strong liquidity.

Goldman Sachs analysts highlighted these robust results and pointed to several factors that could drive ServiceTitan's continued growth. These include a significant market opportunity in a largely untapped $650 billion Total (EPA:TTEF) Addressable Market (TAM), expansion into the commercial sector with the launch of their commercial CRM Pro-Product, Convex, and the increasing adoption of new Pro-Products like Sales Pro and Contact Center Pro.

The analysts anticipate that ServiceTitan's strong market position will help increase its wallet-share and support a Net Dollar Retention (NDR) rate of over 110%. Additionally, the trend of private equity consolidation in the industry is expected to facilitate the acquisition of customers who are more likely to adopt Pro-Products and contribute to faster GTV growth.

Despite these optimistic views, Goldman Sachs maintains a balanced stance, expressing a desire for a more favorable risk/reward scenario. The firm calls attention to ServiceTitan's operating leverage, particularly its higher spending on Sales & Marketing (S&M) and Research & Development (R&D) compared to its industry peers—26% and 27% of revenue, respectively, versus peers' 19% and 18%. Improved execution of margin expansion as the company scales is a point of focus for the analysts moving forward.

In other recent news, ServiceTitan has been in the spotlight following a significant increase in its third-quarter revenue, which reached $199.3 million, marking a 24.6% increase from the same period last year. This notable growth has been attributed to stronger-than-expected subscription growth. However, the company's adjusted loss per share widened to -$1.74 from -$1.53 year over year.

Moreover, ServiceTitan has revised its full-year fiscal 2025 revenue guidance to a range of $761.6 million to $763.6 million, up from previous estimates. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, the company expects revenue to be between $199.0 million and $201.0 million. These projections are part of the company's recent financial performance and outlook.

Furthermore, Citi analyst Tyler Radke has increased the price target for ServiceTitan shares to $113 from the previous target of $109, while maintaining a Neutral rating on the stock. The new price target is based on approximately 12 times the fiscal year 2026 enterprise value to sales ratio. Despite the positive outlook and raised estimates, Citi continues to recommend a Neutral/High Risk stance on ServiceTitan stock.
