Autodesk ( (ADSK) ) just unveiled an update.
On January 22, 2026, Autodesk announced a worldwide restructuring that will eliminate about 7% of its global workforce, or roughly 1,000 roles, primarily in customer-facing sales teams, marking the final phase of a multi-year sales and marketing optimization tied to its go-to-market transformation. The company plans to reallocate part of the associated cost savings to accelerate strategic priorities in AI, platforms, industry clouds and corporate functions, and expects to incur $135 million to $160 million in pre-tax restructuring charges, mostly in cash, with $90 million to $110 million booked in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 and the remainder through fiscal 2027, when the plan is slated for completion. Despite the cuts, Autodesk reported that execution in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 remained strong and now expects billings, revenue, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP EPS and free cash flow for both the quarter and the full year to exceed the top end of its prior guidance, underscoring management’s confidence that the organizational reset will support higher efficiency and long-term growth rather than reflecting external weakness or a shift to replacing employees with AI.
The most recent analyst rating on (ADSK) stock is a Buy with a $282.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Autodesk stock, see the ADSK Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on ADSK Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, ADSK is a Outperform.
Autodesk’s overall stock score reflects strong financial performance and positive earnings call insights, which are the most significant factors. The high valuation and mixed technical indicators slightly temper the score. The company’s strategic focus on AI and cloud capabilities positions it well for future growth, but macroeconomic uncertainties and leverage management remain key considerations.
