Needham & Company analysts reiterated a Hold rating on ZM stock.
"With top-line growth stalled, we are cautious on meaningful re-acceleration until product diversification improves. Given the macro and saturation of Teams in the enterprise, we are skeptical that Phone can meaningfully contribute to revenue acceleration. We look to new products such as Contact Center, Workvivo, new AI applications or an acquired product to make strong progress before getting more constructive on the stock," the analysts said.
William Blair analysts added:
"We believe that Zoom offers differentiated solutions in a massive market that is still in the early days of penetration. Furthermore, we view the company’s platform vision as compelling and expect that execution toward this vision will drive long-term value for the company. Risks to our thesis include increased competition from new and existing competitors and potential competition from partners, slower-than-expected adoption of new offerings, and potential execution missteps on expanding into international markets."
