BofA analyst Wamsi Mohan raised the firm's price target on DigitalOcean to $72 from $60 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm, which notes that shares are trading higher as agentic AI assistants, specifically Clawdbot, gain traction across developer communities, is raising its multiple to reflect the early innings of agentic AI adoption and use-cases from agentic AI broadening. DigitalOcean is well positioned to capitalize on early-stage AI agent deployments as developers typically prioritize an always-on server with predictable unit economics, the analyst tells investors.

Reason
Piper Sandler analyst James Fish raised the firm's price target on DigitalOcean to $50 from $47 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm is slightly adjusting its estimates following its cohort update, but with limited visibility, Piper sees little room for error at these levels as 2026 NNARR assumes DO will add more than what it will do in 2025 already. The firm is encouraged by the bigger deal momentum, mix shift, and mini-analyst day catalyst potential.

Reason
As previously reported, Oppenheimer initiated coverage of DigitalOcean with an Outperform rating and $60 price target. The firm views DigitalOcean as a turnaround story that has begun to show improving traction and momentum with existing and new customers. And Oppenheimer sees customers expanding their utilization of DigitalOcean's infrastructure-as-a-service and platform-as-service cloud offerings for their artificial intelligence inferencing workloads. This should help the company compete effectively with the "neo-cloud" vendors and drive over 20% topline growth for the next several years, the firm adds.
