Reason

DA Davidson lowered the firm's price target on i3 Verticals to $35 from $39 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares after its Q4 results. The company's management expects two dynamics to weigh on growth and margins in FY26, including plans to increase focus on new recurring revenue contracts, which will likely lead to lower non-recurring professional services revenue in the near term, and the management beginning to ramp their investment spending in their Justice technology solutions late in FY25, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Overweight

Reason

KeyBanc lowered the firm's price target on i3 Verticals to $32 from $35 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm notes i3 Verticals' Q4 results were above the Street, driven by outperformance in software and related services revenue. FY26 revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance, however, were below expectations as the company anticipates a decline in non-recurring professional services revenue and continued investment in product innovation, KeyBanc adds.
