RBC Capital raises CommVault Systems price target to $217 on cyber resilience strength

Investing.com - RBC Capital has raised its price target on CommVault Systems (NASDAQ:CVLT) to $217.00 from $185.00 while maintaining a Sector Perform rating on the stock. The data management company, currently valued at $8.76 billion, is trading near its 52-week high of $196.98, according to InvestingPro data.

The price target increase follows CommVault’s latest financial results and guidance, which RBC noted were "nicely ahead despite moderating expectations into results." The data management software company has continued its pattern of exceeding forecasts and subsequently raising guidance, with impressive revenue growth of 18.63% and industry-leading gross margins of 82.02% in the last twelve months.

RBC highlighted CommVault’s "continued momentum, elevated subscription/SaaS growth and traction around multiple product adoption" as key factors behind the adjustment. The firm’s analysis suggests these elements are contributing positively to the company’s performance, reflected in the stock’s strong 15.63% return over the past week.

RBC attributed its price target increase to higher estimates and an increased target multiple for CommVault stock, reflecting the firm’s updated outlook on the company’s growth trajectory in the data management and cyber resilience space.
