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. The stock has outperformed the broader sector over the last one year. The company recently reported mixed second-quarter 2017 results wherein the bottom line surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate but the top line missed the same. Going ahead, although, the company slightly disappointed on third quarter guidance, its strong full-year 2017 outlook makes us optimistic about its future performance. 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. However, softness in the ATM business in mature markets, intense competition and a high debt burden remain concerns." (7/25/2017)
• 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."
