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 reported strong top-line performance for the first quarter of 2018 mainly driven by remarkable year-over-year growth in active customer account. The company’s key initiatives, which include product innovation, global expansion, acquisitions and go-to-market sales strategy, are helping it in gaining customers, which bodes well for long-term growth. However, we are concerned about its declining gross margin. The company’s gross margin has been negatively impacted by shift in international traffic mix and reduced revenue contribution from Uber. Going ahead, intensifying competition in the communications market and growing prevalence of in-app push notifications are other major headwinds." (5/14/2018)
- 2. Drexel Hamilton analysts commented, "We believe the fundamental underpinnings of Twilio remain strong and the stock is undervalued at an EV/revenue ratio of just 4.9x based our 2018 sales forecast." (12/28/2017)
- 3. KeyCorp analysts commented, "We were impressed by the Engagement Cloud vision that Twilio displayed at its first analyst day in San Francisco. While the Company remains focused on a broad vision of disrupting the trillion-dollar communications industry through simple software APIs and a developer- first approach, the growth strategy appears to be solidifying as it moves further up the stack with multiple API components that can be bundled to solve higher-level bottlenecks. The Engagement Cloud, for example, could include 11 unique APIs such as Voice, Chat, SMS, Facebook, Studio, Notify, Understand, Frame, Sync, TaskRouter, and Marketplace. New COO refreshes the go-to-market approach. George Hu, the former COO of Salesforce.com who joined Twilio in March 2017, gave a presentation on the recent changes in the Company’s go-to-market strategy." (12/5/2017)
