What are Wall Street analysts saying about Twilio stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Twilio stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Twilio is benefiting from its continued focus on introducing products and its go-to-market sales strategy. Solid growth in the company’s core voice and messaging products is a key driver. Rapid adoption of application-to-person communication is helping it expand its total addressable market. Robust expansion within the existing customer base and also first-time deals with new clients make us optimistic about the company’s growth prospects. Moreover, strategic alliances and focus on enhancing international operations is paying off well for the company. Estimates have been stable ahead of the company's Q4 earnings release. The company has positive record of earnings surprises in recent quarters. Shares have outperformed the industry in the past year. However, Twilio's contracting gross margin due to unfavorable international traffic mix and reduced revenue contribution from Uber is a major concern for the company." (1/11/2019)
- 2. KeyCorp analysts commented, "We see Twilio’s developer conference, Francisco next week as a potential catalyst that could strengthen the investment thesis of revenue quadrupling by 2022 to $2B driven by robust customer adds and expanding usage of its communication APIs that are enabling brands to establish direct connections with consumers (i.e., Lyft, etc.). This event comes on the heels of a -20% sell-off in TWLO shares during the first ten days of October vs. NASDAQ -9%." (10/11/2018)
- 3. Canaccord Genuity analysts commented, "We continue to recommend no more than a market weight in the software sector because 1) valuations are extended and 2) we are about to enter about two months of an information and catalyst dead zone until we get to the October earnings season. What this means is that you have to be more strategic about your asset allocation and tactical playbook. This week not only brings our annual growth conference that is attended by many of the best public and private software firms, but 11 earnings calls. As is our practice, we discuss the short- and long-term fundamentals of each firm reporting. Unless one of these companies goes completely off the rails, we will not do more than push out a model update on these companies, leaving the press release rehash to others." (8/6/2018)
