What are Wall Street analysts saying about DXC Technology stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about DXC Technology stock:
- 1. BMO Capital Markets analysts commented, "We note that excl. acquisitions, 2018 outlook implies no slowdown in growth, attesting to success of management’s relentless focus on improving the offering, sharpening the marketing message and driving product up-sell/cross sell. We expect these factors will continue to power above-market growth rates, yielding market share gains for GoDaddy over the near/medium term." (2/23/2018)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "DXC Technology reported mixed third-quarter fiscal 2018 results, where in the bottom line surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate while the top line missed the same. The company’s upbeat guidance for earnings makes us optimistic about its near-term performance. DXC Technology is a result of merger between CSC and Enterprise Services Division of HPE. We believe that the merger has opened new avenues of growth for the combined company. Going ahead, following the footsteps of Computer Sciences, DXC Technology may be seen making strategic acquisitions to strengthen its portfolio, which should drive growth over the long run. Additionally, the company’s traction in the cloud and partnerships with HCL, AT&T, VMware and Microsoft are expected to drive growth, going forward. The stock has outperformed the industry in the last one year. Nonetheless, rising interest expenses due to increased debt burden may dampen its profitability." (2/13/2018)
- 3. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, "Foresi’s Take. DXC reported above-expectation top line results, with declining legacy revenues somewhat offset by continued solid growth in Digital (+23%). DXC revenues fell organically and adjusted by low-single digits. DXC raised FY18 EPS guidance to account for the benefit from the lease reclassification. Management maintained revenue expectations for FY18. We will further evaluate the risk/reward as we get more information regarding progress on the merger and divestiture." (11/8/2017)
