Equal Weight
Reason
Morgan Stanley lowered the firm's price target on PagerDuty to $16 from $17 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. With Q3 ARR decelerating to 3% year-over-year and Q4 guidance calling for 1% year-over-year revenue growth and flat trailing twelve month billings, the prospect of re-accelerating growth in FY27 "appears challenging," the analyst tells investors.

Reason
As previously reported, Craig-Hallum downgraded PagerDuty to Hold from Buy with a price target of $15, down from $20. The firm notes the company was in line on revenue and again well ahead on EPS, with forward revenue pulled in, but EPS raised. Further, Craig-Hallum says great cost controls should not be overlooked and have bought the company much greater patience than it otherwise would have exhibited in the wait for improved sales execution, customer retention, and overall revenue growth/acceleration. While shares are seemingly inexpensive, the firm believes growth expectations continue to deflate and the top line is now down to 1% year-over-year in Q4, threatening to go negative. While difficult to put a precise finger on it, there clearly appears to be a fundamental change in end markets in ways detrimental to the standing of PagerDuty, Craig-Hallum adds.
