Street Calls of the Week
Investing.com - UBS assumed coverage on Zoom Video (NASDAQ:ZM) with a Neutral rating and a price target of $85.00, according to a research note released Monday. According to InvestingPro data, Zoom currently appears undervalued, with the stock maintaining impressive gross profit margins of 76.4% and a strong financial health score.
The investment firm’s coverage follows discussions with multiple industry sources, revealing mixed feedback on Zoom’s consolidation strategy, positive outlook for Zoom Phone, and varied perspectives on the Contact Center offering.
UBS noted that early feedback leaned negative regarding Zoom’s ability to monetize its Custom AI Companion this year, though the firm acknowledged it remains early in the product’s development cycle.
The research indicates Zoom stock is currently pricing in 3-4% revenue growth, with UBS modeling 3.8% year-over-year growth in fiscal year 2026 (calendar year 2025) and 3.4% in fiscal year 2027 (calendar year 2026), slightly above consensus estimates.
With the core Meetings product reaching saturation, UBS identified Phone and Contact Center as the primary growth drivers for Zoom’s business, concluding that at 9 times calendar year 2026 estimated free cash flow, the risk/reward profile for the stock appears balanced.
