Reason

Evercore ISI raised the firm's price target on FactSet to $321 from $320 and keeps an In Line rating on the shares. The Business Services sector is navigating a mixed landscape with opportunities in ratings and insurance brokerage, while facing headwinds in insurance premiums and genAI-related disruptions, the analyst tells investors in a year-ahead note on the group.

Reason

BMO Capital analyst Jeffrey Silber lowered the firm's price target on FactSet to $305 from $311 and keeps a Market Perform rating on the shares after its "decent" Q1 earnings beat. The company's management sounded positive on the macro and ASV growth modestly accelerated, though it is still early in FY26, and thus the management only reaffirmed annual guidance, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The post-earnings share weakness was driven by continued investor skepticism on the macro and Gen-AI risk for FactSet despite a decent quarter, BMO added.

Sell

Reason

Goldman Sachs lowered the firm's price target on FactSet to $253 from $282 and keeps a Sell rating on the shares. FactSet posted mixed Q1 results, beating revenue and EPS expectations but reaffirming a muted FY26 outlook with slowing organic growth and roughly 150 bps of operating margin contraction due to ongoing technology and sales investments, the analyst tells investors in a research note. With limited pricing power, competitive and AI-related risks, and no medium-term financial targets provided, visibility into a return to simultaneous growth and margin expansion remains constrained, Goldman says.

Reason

Stifel lowered the firm's price target on FactSet to $295 from $372 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. From a demand perspective, it seems that the end-markets are improving, though the potential AI threat is "a front burner issue for Info Services stocks" and the firm expects this to be a regular discussion area for investors, the analyst says. The current environment is one of "prove to me you won't be disrupted" rather than asking how a product/company might be disrupted, the analyst added.
