Figma Shares Indicated To Open $105/$110
On Wednesday, Piper Sandler analyst James Fish increased the price target for Samsara Inc (NYSE:IOT) shares to $53.00, up from the previous $44.00, while maintaining an Overweight rating on the company’s stock. The revision follows an analysis of high-correlation data points through April, which suggests potential upside in Samsara’s quarterly performance. According to InvestingPro data, nine analysts have recently revised their earnings estimates upward, with price targets ranging from $36.80 to $60.00. While the stock appears overvalued based on InvestingPro’s Fair Value analysis, it has demonstrated strong momentum with an 11.13% return in the past week.
Fish noted that the tracked metrics indicate a possible revenue increase of at least $365 million, or a 4% upside for the current quarter. The most strongly correlated metric, App Downloads, suggests an even more optimistic 5% increase. This growth trajectory aligns with the company’s impressive 33.26% year-over-year revenue growth and robust 76.2% gross profit margins reported in recent quarters. Despite a mix of macroeconomic indicators, with declines in heavy-duty truck sales and the Cass Shipment Index at the beginning of the year, other factors such as employment figures, Samsara’s job postings, and tonnage are showing positive trends.
The analyst also pointed out that while there is considerable investor focus on the impact of shipments on Samsara’s business, this correlation is not as strong as others and is more of an indirect effect. Based on the trends observed in the first fiscal quarter and the typical guidance cadence, Fish anticipates that Samsara is likely to raise its guidance to approximately 25% year-over-year growth, translating to more than $1.55 billion, and set the second fiscal quarter guidance above the Street’s expectations at over $370 million.
Looking ahead, the Beyond user-conference scheduled for June is expected to highlight safety, workflows, and the application of artificial intelligence for data-driven insights. With these positive indicators, Fish reaffirmed the Overweight rating and top-pick status for Samsara Inc, alongside the raised price target.
