Jonathan Ho has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors including the recent leadership change at Fastly and the company’s reaffirmed strategic direction. The transition of the CEO role to Kip Compton, who has a strong background in strategy and business development, suggests continuity in Fastly’s operational strategy, which aims to diversify its product offerings and customer base.
Despite these positive developments, the Hold rating reflects a cautious stance as the company works to reaccelerate revenue growth and reduce dependency on large customers. The focus on expanding into edge computing and security solutions presents significant opportunities, but the execution of these strategies under new leadership remains to be seen. Therefore, the Hold rating indicates a wait-and-see approach as the market observes how these changes will impact Fastly’s future performance.
In another report released on June 5, KeyBanc also initiated coverage with a Hold rating on the stock with a $7.68 price target.
