Verint And Five9 Expand Partnership To Deliver AI-Driven Customer Experiences With New Cloud-To-Cloud Platform Integration

The Federal Reserve&#8217;s decision to cut rates by a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40926026/federal-reserve-delivers-bold-0-5-rate-cut-signals-further-easing-ahead">hefty 0.5% on Wednesday</a> should be helpful to small- to medium-sized companies in the cloud computing space by making it easier for them to refinance debt, according to an analyst.
Piper Sandler analyst James Fisher pointed to five such firms in particular that may benefit the most, given their heavy debt loads: Bandwidth, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAND#NASDAQ">BAND</a>), DigitalOcean Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DOCN#NYSE">DOCN</a>), Fastly, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLY#NYSE">FSLY</a>), RingCentral, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RNG#NYSE">RNG</a>), and Five9, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FIVN#NASDAQ">FIVN</a>).

&#8220;A few names in our coverage will need to refinance debt over the next few years,&#8221; he wrote in a note on Wednesday.
He noted Bandwidth has $250 million in debt coming due in March 2026 and DigitalOcean has $1.5 billion in debt maturing in December 2026. He also pointed out Fastly needs to pay up $347 million by March 2026 and RingCentral has $609 million in debt coming due in March 2026.
He said lower interest rates may better help these companies better assume the interest costs on their debt.
Price Action: These companies all saw gains into Thursday&#8217;s late-morning trading.
<ul>
<li>Bandwidth rose 1.61% to $17.64</li>

Top 3 Tech Stocks You'll Regret Missing In September

Nice (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nice#NASDAQ">NICE</a>) shares have risen 4.3% in the past month, outperforming the Zacks Computer &amp; Technology sector&#39;s decline of 2.2%.
The upside can be attributed to Nice&#39;s diverse portfolio, which is helping it gain new customers. Actimize, Evidencentral, CXone and Inform Elite are some of the solutions that have been gaining popularity. NICE&#39;s focus on its Evidencentral platform has been a key catalyst.
Nice recently announced that the Pinal County Attorney&#39;s Office in Arizona would be adopting its NICE Justice digital evidence management solution, part of the AI-driven Evidencentral platform.
The latest development aims to transform how the office handles digital evidence, providing a streamlined, cloud-based system that enhances efficiency and service delivery.&nbsp;
<div class="chart_embed">
<h3>Nice Price and Consensus</h3>

With its AI-powered features for object detection, automated case building and evidence management, NICE Justice will ease the burden on Pinal County&#39;s legal professionals, enabling them to focus more on its core mission of providing exceptional legal representation and ensuring community safety.
However, does the strong portfolio and expanding clientele make the NICE stock attractive? Let&#39;s look at its fundamentals.
</div>
<h2>Robust Portfolio Boosts Nice&#39;s Prospects</h2>
NICE&#39;s expanding portfolio has been a major growth driver of its success. In August, NICE announced that the Augusta (Georgia) Judicial Circuit DA&#39;s Office would deploy NICE Justice to expedite case processing and enhance digital evidence management.
Nice has a diverse portfolio, which is helping it gain new customers. Its partnerships with AT&amp;T (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/t#NYSE">T</a>) and Microsoft have been a key catalyst.
NICE recently expanded its collaboration with AT&amp;T to offer a unified incident capture and data analytics solution for NextGen 9-1-1 centers, showcasing it at APCO 2024.
A deepening partnership with Microsoft is noteworthy. NTR-X Compliance Recording and Assurance Solution has secured transactable solution status in Microsoft&#39;s Azure Marketplace.
NICE&#39;s expanding cloud offerings, mainly its CXone platform, are a plus. During the second quarter of 2024, it reported cloud revenues of $482 million, up 26% year over year.
NICE&#39;s policy of frequently updating its portfolio has been a key catalyst as it aids in fending off competitors from other industry players like Five9 (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fivn#NASDAQ">FIVN</a>), Salesforce and 8X8, who are also expanding their portfolio in the CX market.
In June, Five9 announced an enhanced collaboration with Salesforce, integrating AI-powered solutions to improve customer experiences in contact centers.
<h2>NICE&#39;s Q3 Guidance Positive</h2>
Nice&#39;s efforts to enhance its customer experience with its robust cloud solutions are expected to drive top-line growth.
For the third quarter of 2024, NICE projects non-GAAP revenues to be between $676 million and $686 million, calling for 13% year-over-year growth at the midpoint. Non-GAAP earnings are estimated in the $2.62-2.72 per share band, suggesting 18% year-over-year growth at the midpoint.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $682.67 million, indicating 13.52% growth year over year. The consensus mark for earnings is pegged at $2.68 per share, increased by a penny over the past 30 days, indicating an 18.06 % year-over-year increase.
<h2>Here&#39;s What Investors Should do With NICE Stock</h2>
Despite Nice&#39;s strong portfolio and growing client base, the foreign exchange headwinds in the APAC market and stiff competition are major concerns.
The forward 12-month Price/Sales ratio for Nice stands at 4.18, higher than its Zacks Computers - IT Services sector&#39;s 2.99, reflecting a stretched valuation.
Nice currently carries Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), which suggests that it may be wise to wait for a more favorable entry point in the stock.

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/short-sellers">short seller</a> highlighted recent conversations with management in which executives told investors that <a href="http://benzinga.com/topic/ai">AI</a> is &#8220;great&#8221; for Five9. The Bear Cave claims that management has intentionally misled investors about how AI will impact its business. 
&#8220;The Bear Cave believes Five9 management is lying to investors and the company is a major AI loser racing towards irrelevance,&#8221; the short seller said.
Benzinga has reached out to Five9 for comment on the report.
The Bear Cave noted that Five9 has not posted an annual profit in any year dating back to its initial public offering in 2014. The weak <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/FIVN/earnings">bottom-line results</a> have been overshadowed by strong revenue growth, but the company lowered its revenue guidance in its most recent quarter, the short seller said.

&#8220;Five9's slowing revenue growth and recent guidance reduction have left investors worried that AI might be negatively affecting the company,&#8221; The Bear Cave said, citing questions surrounding AI concerns at an investing conference last month.
The short seller further highlighted management&#8217;s response to AI concerns, noting that CEO Mike Burkland stressed that AI is a &#8220;great thing&#8221; for Five9 and expects only about 5% to 15% automation due to AI.
The Bear Cave cited previous research suggesting several call center companies are under pressure due to AI as many large companies are aggressively cutting call center spend. The short seller further noted that Five9 recently cut its revenue guidance and announced it was cutting its workforce by about 7%.
&#8220;The layoffs may also be a sign management doesn't believe in its own optimism around AI,&#8221; the short seller said.
FIVN Price Action: Five9 shares rebounded and were up 0.70% at $30.03 at the time of publication, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Zillow Group To Rally Around 19%? Here Are 10 Top Analyst Forecasts For Thursday

Five9, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FIVN#NASDAQ">FIVN</a>) shares are trading lower today. Several analysts lowered the price target on the stock following an annual guidance cut due to recent <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/fivn/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">booking trends and economic uncertainty</a>.
Yesterday, the company reported revenue of $252.1 million,&nbsp;beating the consensus of $245.2 million, and adjusted EPS of $0.52, which <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40283209/why-is-software-company-five9-stock-diving-premarket-friday" rel="noreferrer noopener">surpassed the consensus of $0.44</a>.
For 2024, Five9 reduced revenue guidance to $1.013 billion – $1.017 billion ($1.053&nbsp;billion – $1.057 billion) vs. $1.055 billion and raised adjusted EPS outlook to $2.25 to $2.29 (from $2.15 to $2.19 prior)<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener"> vs. street view of $2.19</a>.
Roth MKM analyst Richard K. Baldry trimmed the price target to $67 (from $90) and maintained a Buy rating.
Despite a history of conservative guidance, FIVN has unexpectedly shifted from a projected 25% growth in the second half FY24 to a flat 10% growth despite strong 2Q24 results, writes the analyst.
Baldry says that slowed bookings late in the second quarter and macro headwinds are impacting second-half peak revenues.
In the near term, the analyst projects management to tightly control spending, which should enable earnings growth to exceed muted revenue growth.
Baldry raised the FY24 EPS forecast to $2.26 (from $2.19) due to strong performance in the second quarter and only slight reductions in the second half of FY24 estimates. However, the analyst modestly decreases 2025 EPS forecast to $2.41 (from $2.67).
Truist Securities analyst Terry Tillman lowered the price target to $65 (from $100) and maintained the rating at Buy.
The analyst writes that following a major enterprise software contract in the first quarter, FIVN&#8217;s disappointing second-quarter bookings are not unexpected given the macro environment and mixed second-quarter software results.
Tillman expects a rebound in bookings, sustained profitability, and cash flow improvement and says that if the company proves AI positively impacts revenue, valuation could rise significantly.
Consequently, the analyst lowered the revenue estimates for FY24 and FY25 but raised the expectations for EBITDA and adjusted EPS.
Piper Sandler analyst James E. Fish cut the price target to $47 from $58 and maintained an Overweight rating.
The analyst writes that the guide cut eliminates Five9&#8217;s usual seasonal uplift, reflecting lower-than-expected June performance and a desire for a decisive adjustment.
The analyst adds that the focus will soon shift to the 2025 guidance and whether the cost structure remains too high relative to growth and they still see AI as a positive factor for CCaaS.
Meanwhile, RBC Capital Markets analyst Rishi Jaluria maintained an Outperform rating with a price target of $80.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;ProShares Big Data Refiners ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAT#NYSE">DAT</a>).
Price Action: FIVN shares are down 27% at $30.99 at the last check Friday.

<h2>アナリスト評価の意義について</h2>
アナリストは銀行や金融機関で働き、通常は特定の株式またはセクターに関するレポートを専門としている。アナリストは企業の電話会議や会合に出席したり、企業の財務諸表を調査したり、企業の内部者とコミュニケーションを取ったりして、株式の「アナリストの評価」を発表することがある。アナリストは通常、四半期ごとに各株式に評価を付ける。
一部のアナリストは、株式に対して有益なメトリクス（収益、売上、および成長予測など）の予測も提供することがある。これにより、特定の銘柄について何をするべきかについてさらなるガイダンスが得られる。株式アナリストが専門家であるということを心に留めておくことは重要だが、彼らも人間であり、トレーダーに対して自分たちの予測しか示すことができないということも理解しておくことが大切だ。
