Shrenik Kothari has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors tied to CommVault’s strategic position and current valuation. He highlights that takeover interest from both private equity and strategic buyers, including a noted software-focused sponsor, signals that the market increasingly recognizes CommVault as a core cyber resilience and data protection platform rather than a low-growth legacy backup vendor.
At the same time, he points to the company’s growing base of subscription and SaaS customers, rising SaaS ARR mix, and strong net dollar retention as evidence of durable, recurring revenue and an improving business mix. Coupled with shares trading at a discount to peers on sales and free cash flow multiples despite this transition, he sees a supportive risk/reward profile and a potential valuation floor, which together justify maintaining a positive, Buy-oriented stance on the stock.
