In a report released yesterday, Andrew Nowinski from Wells Fargo maintained a Buy rating on Couchbase (BASE – Research Report), with a price target of $34.00.
Andrew Nowinski has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including the promising growth and adoption of Couchbase’s Capella platform, and the company’s competitive value proposition in the market. Despite the significant year-to-date increase in Couchbase’s stock price, which has outperformed both the NASDAQ index and its peers, Nowinski still considers the stock relatively undervalued. He emphasizes this by pointing out that the stock trades at a lower enterprise value to projected future sales ratio compared to its peer group. Additionally, Nowinski has raised the price target for Couchbase to $34, suggesting a positive outlook on the company’s financial performance.
The analyst’s optimism is further fueled by the accelerated adoption of Capella, as evidenced by a substantial year-over-year increase in customer count and new features that align with emerging generative AI workloads. Couchbase’s recent announcement of the general availability of vector search, a feature unique to its mobile database offering, positions the company advantageously in capturing new AI-driven markets. Moreover, the introduction of Capella iQ, a generative AI coding assistant, is expected to enhance the platform’s usability and drive further adoption. Nowinski views the company’s Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) as a robust metric for assessing the health of the business and notes the potential for large customer renewals to positively impact ARR growth.
According to TipRanks, Nowinski is a 5-star analyst with an average return of 17.7% and a 55.97% success rate. Nowinski covers the Technology sector, focusing on stocks such as Palo Alto Networks, CyberArk Software, and Tenable Holdings.
In another report released on February 26, RBC Capital also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $32.00 price target.
