Outperform
Reason
Oppenheimer analyst Param Singh assumed coverage of Commvault with an Outperform rating with a price target of $200, down from $210. The firm's bullish stance looks at Commvault beyond the near-term revenue headwind, and is predicated upon its long-term view that Commvault is a beneficiary of the rising importance of data, which is driving backup storage TAM; benefiting from growing data security breaches and ransomware attacks that are creating new revenue opportunities; and a leading provider of BaaS and DRaaS offerings, and will benefit from the industry shift to as-a-service platforms. Oppenheimer believes these drivers will result in strong new customer additions, existing customer expansion activity, continued market share gains, and 35%-40% SaaS ARR growth over the next three years.

Reason
RBC Capital analyst Dan Bergstrom lowered the firm's price target on Commvault to $167 from $217 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares after its Q2 earnings miss. The quarter was largely positive, though shorter term contract duration and the accompanying lower margin outlook are likely to be more in focus and weigh on the stock over the near term, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Truist analyst Junaid Siddiqui lowered the firm's price target on Commvault to $210 from $230 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The company delivered solid Q2 results, coming in above the high end of guidance on revenue and ARR, though a duration headwind on term license caused the stock to fall about 16% as that filtered through the P&L, causing 200bp of margin compression, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
