What are Wall Street analysts saying about Autodesk stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Autodesk stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Autodesk’s second-quarter fiscal 2019 results benefited from higher subscriptions revenues. Although the revenue growth was satisfactory, the ongoing business model is likely to hurt top-line growth in the near term. Moreover, increasing spending is expected to keep margins under pressure. Moreover, higher rate of new hires will increase spending. However, Autodesk is well positioned to capitalize on the rapid adoption of computer-aided designing and manufacturing in both its domestic and overseas markets. We believe that higher demand for the company’s cloud-based products, mobile products and design suites will drive top-line growth over the long term. Shares have outperformed the industry on a year-to-date basis." (8/28/2018)
- 2. Evercore ISI analysts commented, "We believe this report should be viewed as neutral to positive for ADSK; while the overall ABI index ticked down m/m, recent readings indicate that architecture firm billings have now increased for 5 consecutive months, and 11 months of the last year. As a reminder, ADSK generates a sizable portion of its business from architecture firms with ~42% of revenue coming from its Architecture, Engineering, and Construction segment in FY18." (3/21/2018)
