KeyBanc maintains Amplitude stock with $17 target

On Tuesday, KeyBanc Capital Markets sustained its optimistic perspective on Amplitude Inc (NASDAQ:AMPL), maintaining an Overweight rating and a price target of $17.00, representing a 42% upside from the current price of $12. The firm’s analysts highlighted the potential for Amplitude’s product innovations, particularly in artificial intelligence (AI), to bolster enterprise sales and drive growth. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a strong financial position with more cash than debt and a healthy current ratio of 2.1.

The analysts expressed greater enthusiasm for the company’s product developments than its financial performance. While revenue grew 8.32% in the last twelve months to $299.27 million, they noted that the projected medium-term outlook for Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) to reach $500 million with a 10-11% margin over a four- to five-year period aligns with their existing forecasts, albeit with potentially slightly slower growth. InvestingPro analysis suggests the company could turn profitable this year, with analysts forecasting earnings of $0.08 per share for FY2025.

KeyBanc anticipates that Amplitude’s growth will be significantly driven by its Enterprise segment. The analysts believe that the expected mid-teens growth rate for this segment could exceed expectations, thanks to a more focused go-to-market strategy and a product roadmap tailored to meet the needs of larger clients. This optimism is reflected in the stock’s strong performance, with InvestingPro data showing a remarkable 40.19% price return over the past six months.

The most notable aspect of Amplitude’s product presentation, according to KeyBanc, was the introduction of AI agent use-cases. These AI agents, which are slated for release in the second half of the year, could revolutionize how enterprises interact with analytics by automating tasks such as A/B testing and experimentation, which are traditionally reserved for data scientists.

KeyBanc analysts were particularly impressed with the direct response of the product demonstration to their speculation about automated capabilities. The upcoming AI Agent feature is expected to enhance enterprise user engagement significantly, and it will be the responsibility of Amplitude’s enterprise sales representatives to effectively communicate this vision to prospective clients.

In other recent news, Amplitude Inc has reported strong financial performance, surpassing expectations in its fourth-quarter results. The company provided an optimistic revenue outlook for 2025, with guidance indicating a midpoint of $327.8 million, exceeding both KeyBanc’s and the consensus estimates. Analysts from Baird have upgraded Amplitude’s stock rating to "Outperform" and raised the price target to $17.00, following the company’s robust quarter and favorable future projections. Similarly, DA Davidson increased their rating to "Buy," setting a $16.00 price target, citing Amplitude’s strong enterprise momentum and strategic investments.

Needham analysts also initiated coverage of Amplitude with a "Buy" rating and a $16.00 price target, highlighting the company’s potential for revenue growth and platform expansion. Furthermore, KeyBanc adjusted their price target to $17.00, maintaining an "Overweight" rating due to the company’s accelerating revenue. In addition to financial updates, Amplitude has appointed Tien Tzuo to its Board of Directors, bringing extensive experience from his previous roles at Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) and Zuora (NYSE:ZUO).

These developments reflect a positive outlook from multiple analyst firms on Amplitude’s growth trajectory and strategic initiatives. The company’s efforts to enhance its platform and expand its market presence have been noted as key factors in its sustained performance.
