Salesforce - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Salesforce
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Salesforce, Inc.:

The current stock price is around $253, which reflects a significant position in the market and potential for growth.
Salesforce, Inc. has recently increased its quarterly dividend to $0.42, indicating a commitment to returning value to shareholders and a healthy dividend payout ratio of 26.10%.
The company boasts a strong market capitalization of approximately $242.69 billion, showcasing its stability and prominence in the CRM sector.
Salesforce, Inc. has a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.14, suggesting a conservative approach to leveraging and financial stability, which can be attractive to risk-averse investors.
With a beta of 1.38, the stock is more volatile than the market, which could present opportunities for higher returns during favorable market conditions.

Salesforce
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Salesforce, Inc. for these reasons:

The stock has a relatively high P/E ratio of 41.54, which may indicate that it is overvalued compared to its earnings, potentially leading to a price correction.
Salesforce, Inc. has experienced a significant trading volume fluctuation, with recent volumes lower than the average, which could signal reduced investor interest or confidence.
The company’s PEG ratio of 2.58 suggests that its growth may not justify its current price, indicating that investors might be paying a premium for future growth that may not materialize.
Insider selling activity has been noted, with significant shares sold recently, which could raise concerns about the company's future prospects from those who are most familiar with its operations.
The stock's 1-year high of $369 indicates that it has experienced considerable volatility, which may deter conservative investors looking for stable investments.
