to
Hold
Reason
HSBC last night downgraded Cisco to Hold from Buy with a $69 price target. The company's fiscal Q4 results and 2026 outlook missed HSBC's estimates as the networking segment slows, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm believes Cisco's fiscal 2026 revenue guidance and slowing growth in remaining performance obligations suggest the restocking effect may be coming to an end sooner than expected. The company's strength in artificial intelligence infrastructure orders is getting offset by weakness elsewhere, contends HSBC, which views the shares as fairly valued at current levels.

Barclays raised the firm's price target on Cisco to $71 from $66 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. The company reported no surprised with a slight beat revenue and earnings along with forward guidance in-line with consensus, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm adds that Cisco's order growth decelerated and should be a challenging metric as compares get harder the next few quarters

BofA analyst Tal Liani raised the firm's price target on Cisco to $85 from $76 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. While Cisco's Q4 results and FY26 guidance "lacked a major spark," they were slightly better than expectations, says the analyst, who adds that Cisco's story is "about a revamped portfolio, a significant infrastructure cycle driven by AI and data growth, and constant improvement in execution." Following the report, the firm fine-tuned estimates to account for better growth, the analyst noted.

Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani raised the firm's price target on Cisco to $74 from $72 and keeps an In Line rating on the shares. Cisco delivered "a solid quarter" and the company's AI momentum is "notable," but there are still questions around security growth and networking's "robustness" into FY26, the analyst tells investors in an earnings recap.

Neutral
Reason
Piper Sandler raised the firm's price target on Cisco to $70 from $64 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm notes Q4 results were only roughly in line, and FY26 guide came in below what bulls were hoping to see that will raise questions around "peak growth x peak multiple" being already seen, with second half of 2026 guide implying less than 5%. However, the narrative here remains unscathed, as Cisco will see the about $1B AI orders in the second half of 2025 flow into FY26 revenue, further AI-infrastructure spend, campus refresh, datacenter refresh and modernization, growing Enterprise and Neoclouds traction, and Splunk cross-sell and cost-synergies. Piper says that FY26 guide looks about how it anticipated and realistic, particularly for an incoming CFO.
