Reason
Lake Street lowered the firm's price target on Par Technology to $48 from $65 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Rollout schedules are back on track and the firm said it was "good to see" a reiteration of mid-teens ARR growth, but its lowered target reflects multiple compression in the restaurant tech space.

BTIG upgraded Par Technology to Buy from Neutral with a $65 price target. The company's $100M sales pipeline will allow it "comfortably" post 15%-plus growth for the next several years, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm points out that Par is competing for three "megadeals" with top-20 restaurant brands, which are not included in its sales pipeline and could push its growth to 20%. Par is proving to be the "premiere" enterprise restaurant tech solution and deserves a premium multiple, contends BTIG.
