Joshua Reilly’s rating is based on Karooooo’s ability to deliver stronger-than-expected subscriber additions in Q4, with Cartrack subscriptions coming in meaningfully above his forecast. Although currency movements, particularly the appreciation of the Rand, weighed on reported subscription revenue and average recurring revenue per user, he emphasizes that the underlying subscriber momentum is the more important driver of long‑term value.
He also highlights expanding operating leverage, supported by the company’s initial fiscal 2027 outlook, as a key reason for his constructive stance. Reilly notes that demand trends remain favorable, especially in South Africa and the broader Asia-Pacific region, despite FX volatility, and he sees potential for faster year-over-year subscriber expansion in calendar 2026 as sales productivity improves, even though this upside is not fully embedded in his current forecasts.
According to TipRanks, Reilly is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 6.7% and a 44.31% success rate. Reilly covers the Technology sector, focusing on stocks such as Bandwidth, Twilio, and Asure.
