Initiates
$116 → $100
2025-03-20
Reason
Oppenheimer analyst Param Singh assumed coverage of Akamai with an Outperform rating with a price target of $100, down from $116. While remaining cautious on the investor thesis that the consolidation in the industry will improve CDN pricing, the firm sees outsized opportunity for Akamai in its Security and Compute portfolio, which can accelerate topline growth. Oppenheimer believes estimates have sufficiently reset after the earnings miss last quarter and that the company is well positioned to outperform expectations through the year.

2025-02-24
Reason
Citi analyst Fatima Boolani lowered the firm's price target on Akamai to $95 from $102 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm views the company's Q4 report as a "mixed-bag" and sees uncertainty ahead.

2025-02-21
Reason
Piper Sandler downgraded Akamai to Neutral from Overweight with a price target of $100, down from $112. The company's Q4 results brought an initial 2025 guidance below where even Piper had been warning it could, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says that "with a lot of moving parts that create messiness ahead," along with low growth, declining margin, higher needed capex, questions around revenue substitution, and Akamai's fastest growing pieces being a small part of the business as the core slows, investors "should look elsewhere until some of the dust settles." Additionally, Piper thinks management's 3-5 year framework "looks optimistic again."

$110 → $105
2025-02-21
Reason
Susquehanna analyst Shyam Patil lowered the firm's price target on Akamai to $105 from $110 and keeps a Positive rating on the shares. The firm said they reported a generally solid 4Q, though its 2025 outlook was noisy due to FX, traffic growth trends, and headwinds from its largest customer. However, management seemed optimistic about the potential to reaccelerate growth in the coming years to achieve the 3-5-year goals it announced at earnings.

2025-02-21
Reason
Scotiabank lowered the firm's price target on Akamai to $107 from $115 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm reiterates its rating following positive Q4 results, but FY25 guidance that was a "letdown," the analyst tells investors. Scotiabank continues to believe the company's Security and Edge Compute will total nearly 75% of revenue by the exit of 2025 and sees limited downside given the multi-year lows to the stock's valuation.

Buy
Maintains
$115 → $110
2025-02-21
Reason
Raymond James analyst Frank Louthan lowered the firm's price target on Akamai to $110 from $115 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. Akamai's Q4 results were better than expected, but the outlook is muted by fears over the fate of ByteDance and what could be some disruption with another sales refocus, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm thinks the ByteDance loss combined with the other investments and the changes to the direction of the sales force again will all weigh on the shares.
