Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about NCR Corporation stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "NCR is one of the world’s leading consumer transaction technology providers. Estimates for the company have been moving down off late. The stock has underperformed the Zacks Computer-Office Equipment industry in the past six months. We believe that softness in the ATM business could jeopardize NCR’s growth potential, going forward. Moreover, competition from Diebold Inc. and HP Inc. and a high debt burden remain concerns. However, NCR’s growing exposure in the self-service kiosk space is encouraging, given the tremendous growth prospects. Going ahead, continuous product launches, growing popularity of its self-service offerings and synergies from acquisitions are the catalysts." (6/21/2017)
• 2. Royal Bank Of Canada analysts commented, "We believe QUIK represents a differentiated investment opportunity in mobile sensor processors. On top of the significant ramp potential for newer sensor hub products, we are encouraged by the company’s continuing IP licensing program momentum. Specifically, with release of the key software tool needed for customers to license QUIK’s eFPGA offering, we have gained confidence in the revenue opportunity in the next several quarters."
